The American Mafia has seen another interesting year come and go as we head into 2015 some families seem to be rebuilding while others continue to diminish.
The past year has brought changes in the hierarchies of some of the major mafia families in the Unites States for one reason or another. Here is an up to dates list of the 2015 mafia leadership for most of the active mob families across the country going into the new year. The information found here is gathered from an array of sources including law enforcement reports , news reports, and much more with an effort to be as accurate as possible. Included in the charts are the current mafia family bosses along with the other known leadership positions within the families. We will attempt to keep things updated throughout the year on our Mafia Family Leadership Charts page so you can check back there occasionally for any further updates.
