1920

Louis Tom Dragna (July 18, 1920 – November 16, 2012) was an Italian-American mobster, nephew of Jack Dragna and son of Tom Dragna.

Louis Tom Dragna was born on July 18, 1920, in Los Angeles, California to Tom Dragna and Julia Torisco.

He had a younger brother, Frank Paul Dragna (nicknamed "Two Eyes" to distinguish him from his cousin with the same name and had a glass eye, from a combat injury he received in World War II.) and a sister, Anna Dragna.

They are second generation immigrants and Louis was the only younger Dragna to be heavily involved in the Mafia.

1931

In 1931 his uncle Jack Dragna became Boss of the Los Angeles crime family and named his father Tom his Consigliere.

According to his army enlistment record, Louis Dragna spent two years in college.

1940

He was active in the Los Angeles crime family from the 1940s until the early 1980s.

He started to become involved in the crime family in the 1940s.

1946

Louis had an arrest record dating back to 1946.

1947

Dragna became a made man in 1947 along with Jimmy "The Weasel" Fratianno, Dominic Brooklier, Joseph Dippolito, and Salvatore "Dago Louie" Piscopo.

Louis Dragna was eventually promoted to Captain (caporegime) in the family by his uncle.

Some

including Jimmy The Weasel, say that Louis never "made his bones" i.e. committed a murder on the Mafia's orders.

1959

In 1959 Dragna was arrested with mobsters Joe Sica, Frankie Carbo, Frank "Blinky" Palermo, and Truman Gibson for extorting Jackie Leonard, the manager of boxing champion Don Jordan in 1958.

They were accused of trying to muscle in on the fight earnings of Jordan.

1960

On June 16, 1960, the Nevada Gaming Commission opened its first Black Book.

It is a list of all persons who are banned from entering any casino in Nevada.

1963

The defendants appealed their ruling and on February 13, 1963, the U.S. Court of Appeals affirmed the conviction of four of the defendants, with only Dragna 's sentence being overturned.

His lawyers argued that the case against Dragna was weak and questioned Leonard's creditability.

Leonard's only testimony on Dragna stated that he was present at the times threats were made against him, but that Dragna never made any threats himself.

1975

When Los Angeles Mob boss Dominic Brooklier was imprisoned in 1975, he chose Dragna as his co acting boss, along with Jimmy Fratianno to run the Los Angeles family while he was in prison.

Brooklier knew Dragna would never have had the nerve or the inclination to try and take over the family permanently.

Dragna, however declined the opportunity unless Fratianno was his co boss, and the job was given to both men.

Dragna's refusal to become boss, despite his uncle's and father's former positions in the family earned him the nickname "the Reluctant Prince".

Fratianno wrote in The Last Mafioso that he felt Dragna was so busy with his Roberta Manufacturing Company he did not have time to be a mob boss.

Fratianno also wrote the Dragna had never "made his bones"-i.e. killed someone under a Mob boss's orders.
