Anthony Arillotta, a former leader of the Genovese Mafia's Connecticut-Massachusetts faction, recently discussed the often-overlooked Springfield Mafia. Arillotta delved into the faction's rich history, dating back to the early 20th century. He revealed a surprising aspect: the Springfield faction once had a female boss. This woman briefly ran operations but met a violent end, being shot around 20 times. Arillotta explained that the Springfield faction's roots trace back to bootleggers in the 1920s, aligning with the expansion of the Genovese family outside New York. Despite its notable history, the Springfield Mafia often remained in the shadows compared to its New York counterparts.
