Vinnie "The Chin" dies
What a character:
Dunno about that "Vincent" part. "The Chin" reportedly didn't have anything to do with his face; it was short for Vinchenzo.
CORRECTION: Make that Vicente.
NEW YORK (AP) -- Mob boss Vincent "The Chin" Gigante, the powerful Mafioso who avoided jail for decades by wandering the streets in a ratty bathrobe and slippers, feigning mental illness, died Monday in prison. He was 77.
The head of the Genovese crime family, who had suffered from heart disease, died at the federal prison in Springfield, Mo., said prison spokesman Al Quintero.
