When Larasso stood before federal Judge Irving Kaufman for sentencing, the jurist gave a thumbnail sketch of the 34-year-old mafioso (as he had done for all defendants) before passing a sentence of four years in prison on him. He called Larasso “a person devoid of emotion whose first loyalty was to the underworld.”
Luciano (Fat Louie) Larasso – aka “Anthony LaRasso,” “Luciano Luraso,” and “Louis Anthony Larasso” – was born on November 13, 1926, in Elizabeth, New Jersey. By the late-1950s, he was residing with his young wife Stephanie and three daughters at 2711 Bradbury Street where they had purchased a home in the adjoining neighborhood of Linden.
