- Early History: The family was originally founded by Giuseppe "Joe the Boss" Masseria in the 1910s. After Masseria's death in 1931 during the Castellammarese War, control passed to Charles "Lucky" Luciano, who reorganized the American Mafia into the structure it has today, with the Genovese family becoming one of the key pillars.
- Vito Genovese: The family is named after Vito Genovese, who took control in the late 1950s. Under his leadership, the family expanded its influence and became involved in a wide range of criminal activities, including narcotics trafficking, extortion, loan sharking, and labor racketeering.
- Organizational Structure: The Genovese family operates with a hierarchical structure typical of Mafia families, with a boss at the top, followed by underbosses, capos (captains), and soldiers. Associates work for the family but are not full members.
- Territory and Influence: The family's operations are primarily based in New York City, but they also have significant influence in other areas, including New Jersey, Florida, and Las Vegas. They have been involved in infiltrating legitimate businesses, particularly in the construction and labor industries.
- Racketeering and Extortion: The Genovese family has been deeply involved in extortion and loan sharking, using violence and intimidation to collect debts and maintain control over various industries.
- Labor Unions: They have historically exerted control over labor unions, using their influence to manipulate contracts, embezzle funds, and control labor markets.
- Drug Trafficking: While historically less involved in drug trafficking compared to other families, the Genovese family has still participated in the narcotics trade, often using intermediaries to distance themselves from the operations.
- Law Enforcement Pressure: Over the years, the Genovese family has been targeted by numerous law enforcement operations, leading to the arrest and conviction of many high-ranking members. Despite these setbacks, the family remains influential and continues to operate.
- Current Leadership: The current leadership of the Genovese family is less well-known, as the family has adapted to increased law enforcement scrutiny by maintaining a lower profile and operating more discreetly.
