About Johnny Torrio
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Torrio
Johnny Torrio (January 20, 1882 – April 16, 1957) was an American mobster who helped to build a criminal organization, the Chicago Outfit, in the 1920s; it was later inherited by his protégé, Al Capone.[1] He also put forth the idea of the National Crime Syndicate in the 1930s[2] and later became an unofficial adviser to Lucky Luciano and his Luciano crime family.
He gained several nicknames but was mostly known as "The Fox" for his cunning and finesse.[3] Widely considered one of the most influential personalities in American organized crime, Torrio impressed authorities and chroniclers with his business acumen and diplomatic skills.
