| - The Colombo crime family is one of the "Five Families" that dominates and controls organized crime in America, with an iron fist, within the nationwide, extremely powerful, organized crime empire, known as the Mafia, (The American Mafia), (The Italian-American Mafia), (The Mob), (The Italian Mafia), (The Italian Mob), (The American Mob), (The Italian-American Mob), (American Cosa Nostra) (Cosa Nostra), (or La Cosa Nostra). The Colombo crime family is the most violent, bloodiest, and warring of the five families, and are also the most violent and warring crime family in America. The Colombo crime family is also the most violent and warring crime family in American history. extremely notorious for extreme violence, brutality, ruthlessness, viciousness, committing tens of thousands of murders, and their three bloody internal wars. The Colombo Crime Family is also notorious for committing a murder or multiple murders with not just 2 to 10 hitmen like most crime family's, but 20 to 50 hitmen on some murders, depending on the situation. the Colombo Crime Family call it a "hit-army". The FBI considers the Colombo crime family to be "a massive army of vicious, psychopathic killers". The FBI considers the Colombo Crime Family to be one of the most violent, dangerous and feared criminal organization's in America, but the most warring criminal organization in American history. According to FBI Agent James Kallstrom- "The Colombo crime family operates just like Paramilitary organization, to the extent of the boss sending out a heavily armed, hit-squad of a hundred men to commit a murder or dozens of murders in the same day, and to the extent of brutal violence, ruthlessness, and killing whoever they have to kill to protect their turf and their organization, and also to the extent of having high-tech weapons such as M60 Machine Guns, .50 Caliber Machine Guns, Mini-Guns, AK-47's, Hand Grenades, Land Mines, RPG's, Grenade Launcher's, M35 Light Machine Guns, and Bombs which the Colombo crime family has used on multiple occasions, and the Colombo crime family is even more well-armed and has more high-tech weapons than any criminal organization in America. The Colombo crime family is just as well-armed as any Military in the World. The colombo crime family is the most violent and warring criminal organization in history." In 1928, Joe Profaci formed the Profaci crime family. Profaci would rule his family without interruption or challenge until the late 1950s. The family has been torn by three internal wars. The first war took place during the late 1950s when capo Joey Gallo revolted against Profaci. The first war lost momentum in the early 1960s when Gallo was arrested and Profaci died of cancer. The family then came together during the regime of boss Joseph Colombo. In 1971, the second family war began after Gallo's release from prison and the shooting of Colombo. Colombo supporters led by Carmine Persico won the war after the exiling of the Gallo crew to the Genovese family in 1975. The family would now enjoy two decades of peace under Persico and his string of acting bosses. In 1991, the third and bloodiest war erupted when acting boss Vittorio Orena tried to seize power from the imprisoned boss Carmine Persico. The family split into factions loyal to Orena and Persico and two years of mayhem ensued. In 1993, with 12 family members dead and Orena imprisoned, Persico was the winner more or less by default. He was left with a family decimated by war. In the 2000s, the family was crippled by multiple convictions in federal racketeering cases and numerous members becoming government witnesses. Most observers believe that the Colombo crime family is the weakest of the Five Families of New York City.
