The DiMeo/Soprano Crime Family is a fictional Italian American Mafia Crime Syndicate based in New Jersey, and the protagonistic group in The Sopranos.

Formation (1900s-1950s)[]

The DiMeo crime family is believed to have been formed in Northern New Jersey in the 1900s by Alfano. Agent Dwight Harris says that during World War 2, they assisted the military in protecting the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Ercole DiMeo is believed to have become boss of the family in the 1950s. Key members from the 1950s include brothers Giovanni "Johnny Boy" Soprano and Corrado "Junior" Soprano, as well as Michele "Feech" La Manna, Raymond "Buffalo Ray" Curto, Paulie "Walnuts" Gualtieri, Richard "Dickie" Moltisanti and Dickie's father Aldo "Hollywood Dick" Moltisanti. The Sopranos were a key faction in the DiMeo Crime Family, Johnny Soprano was one of the most high profile capos of the family, with his brother Junior as his right-hand man. They also had longstanding ties with the five New York Families (particularly the Lupertazzi crime family, led by Carmine Lupertazzi). Despite DiMeo’s reign as Boss, it is mentioned throughout the series that the two Soprano brothers unofficially ran North Jersey, with some people regarding Johnny as if he was the boss of the family instead of Ercole.

The Newark Riots (1967)[]

In 1967, riots broke out in Newark after an African American taxi driver was randomly beaten up by cops. Johnny and Junior were arrested at an amusement park where they held meetings. Junior got off on bail, but Johnny was sentenced to 4 years in prison. Hollywood Dick, the family’s top earner and a close associate, was found dead in one of his businesses after it was burned down. In reality he was killed by his son Dickie, who was angered about the way his father was treating his new wife Giuseppina Moltisanti.

The Numbers Racket War (1972)[]

In 1972, when Johnny was released from prison, Harold McBrayer, an African American gangster and former associate, began muscling in on the Newark numbers racket, which was controlled by Dickie, who was now a captain. After Harold killed one of Dickie's men, Dickie and his crew broke into his car shop, and killed his cousin Cyril. As payback, Harold attacked Dickie, Johnny, and Buddha outside of their nightclub. Killing Buddha. Dickie and his crew then went on the lookout for Harold.

Tension began boiling between Dickie and Junior, due to Dickie constantly undermining him, and Johnny comparing him to Dickie. Eventually in the Christmas season of that year, Dickie was killed by an unknown hitman sent by Junior.

Dickie’s crew was then merged back with the Soprano crew. No one knew that Junior ordered Dickie's murder, with the largely accepted rumor being that it was done by a corrupt cop under orders from one of Dickie’s rivals Jilly Ruffalo.

Unrest of '83 (1983)[]

During the 1980s, many DiMeo crime family members and associates were arrested, causing the biggest blow to the family since its formation. Among those arrested were Feech La Manna, who was sentenced to 20 years, Richie Aprile, who got 10 years, and associate Tony Blundetto, who got 17 years.

It was during the Unrest of '83 that Salvatore "Big Pussy" Bonpensiero, a cat burglar and associate in the Johnny Soprano’s crew, stood up (killed someone) for Johnny, and became a made man as a result. During this time, Junior was promoted to capo of his own crew.

Rise of Anthony Soprano (1986)[]

Johnny died of emphysema in October 1986. Before his death, he requested that his son become the capo of his old crew. Tony, one of the fastest rising stars in the Family after holding up Feech La Manna's card game with future Aprile crew chief Giacomo "Jackie" Aprile, was a relatively young man to be a capo at the age of 27. Tony's transition into capo was aided by the loyalty of longtime Soprano soldiers Paulie Gualtieri, Silvio Dante, and Pussy Bonpensiero. Tony would go on to become one of the top earners in the family.

Aprile Ascends to Acting Boss (1995)[]

DiMeo was convicted and given a life sentence in prison in 1995. Jackie was named Boss of the family, much to the chagrin of Junior Soprano. It was assumed that a Soprano would take over the reins when DiMeo died or went to prison, but DiMeo was impressed by Jackie Aprile's leadership abilities (the Aprile crew has been the top earner and best-run crew of the family for years). Jackie was the official boss of the family, but he chose the title of "Acting Boss" out of respect to Old Man DiMeo, but it could also have been to fool the feds into thinking that DiMeo is still running the family behind bars.

War of '99 (1999)[]

When Jackie was diagnosed with stomach cancer and was hospitalized in 1998, Tony took over Jackie's responsibilities, much to Junior's displeasure. Uncle Junior and Tony were at that point at each other's throats because Junior plotted to murder a rival, "Little Pussy" Malanga, in Malanga's favorite restaurant, Vesuvio, a restaurant owned by Tony's childhood friend Artie Bucco. Tony foiled Junior's plans by ordering Silvio to set Artie's restaurant on fire. Jackie came back as boss, though would soon be hospitalized again.

Tony's nephew Christopher Moltisanti and his associate Brendan Filone were hijacking trucks from Comley Trucking, a business that paid protection to Junior. Junior's enforcer, Mikey Palmice, killed Brendan, and Russian Mobsters hired by Junior performed a mock execution on Christopher. When Jackie died in September 1998 and tensions between Junior and Tony were at an all-time high, it was assumed that the two would go to all-out war over the top position. Tony instead deferred to Junior, giving him the title as Boss, thus the DiMeo family was renamed The Soprano Family. However, junior was the boss in name only, as Tony still controlled the capos in the family and was the main conduit to the Lupertazzi crime family, as well as two other New York families, represented by Lupertazzi underboss "Johnny Sack.”, a good friend of Tony’s.

Mikey1

Mikey Palmice starts a war that he has no clue about, which will lead to his own demise.

Tensions flared up between Junior and Tony after Tony's mother, Livia Soprano, revealed that Tony was seeing a psychiatrist and had been meeting secretly with Junior's capos. On March 26, 1999, an assassination attempt on Tony was made, but Tony managed to escape with just an injury to the ear, leaving one hitman dead. After the FBI showed Tony that the failed attempt was a plan concocted by Junior, Tony ordered the deaths of key members of Junior's crew: soldier Chucky Signore, consigliere Mikey Palmice, and capo Philly Parisi. Junior Soprano was spared when he was indicted by the federal government in April 1999 (along with underboss Joseph "Beppy" Sasso and capo Lorenzo "Larry Boy" Barese), and because Tony wished to keep him as the lightning rod that took the hits for the Family. Tony then took over virtually all of Junior's businesses and became the Boss of the Soprano Crime Family (though he officially held the title of the Street Boss, and Underboss). Former Junior Soprano soldiers Gigi Cestone and Pasquale "Patsy" Parisi defected over to the Soprano crew. Tony named Silvio as his consigliere, and Paulie was promoted to de facto underboss, as well as the capo of his old crew, renamed the Gualtieri crew.

Although Junior has been usurped of nearly all power and is under house arrest awaiting trial, he still officially retained the title of Boss and acted as a mentor and advisor to Tony. One of the factors that brought the two closer together was when Junior was diagnosed with stomach cancer in October 2000. However, Tony continued to punish Junior through business arrangements. Junior managed to beat the disease In January 2001 and was also released from house arrest before the RICO trial against him started.

FBI Crackdown & Investigation (2000-2003)[]

After years of investigating Tony (at one point trying to turn him into an informant) and failing to connect him to anything (the closest they came was pinning him to the murder of associate Matthew Bevilaqua in April 2000, which was tossed out when an eyewitness retracted his statement after finding out that one of the shooters may have been Tony Soprano), the FBI arrested (?) Tony in June 2000, when it was discovered that he had been extorting Davey Scatino. While busting out Scatino's sporting goods store, Tony had been receiving stolen airline tickets, which was discovered due to information given by Pussy Bonpensiero, who had flipped to the FBI, and when Tony gave one of the stolen tickets to his mother, Livia. The case fell through when Big Pussy suddenly "disappeared" and Livia died of a stroke on September 9, 2000. The FBI continued to build a case against Tony, but fell on difficult times when a wiretapping of his basement was compromised and because of the deaths of several FBI informants.

In April 2003, the RICO trial against Junior Soprano ended in a hung jury, but the government moved to schedule a re-trial, meaning Junior had to stay under house arrest. Due to his diminished position in the family because of the house arrest, longtime Junior Soprano loyalist Robert "Bobby Bacala" Baccalieri was promoted to capo of Junior’s crew.

Periods of Unrest[]

In the meantime, the Soprano Family continued to stay in a period of transition, with Richie Aprile, older brother of Jackie Aprile, taking over the previously leaderless and defunct Aprile crew after his release from prison in August 1999. Richie became a threat to Tony's power, crippling associate Peter "Beansie" Gaeta and disobeying Tony repeatedly when it came to selling cocaine on garbage routes. Richie also came to Junior about overthrowing Tony, but Junior decided that he would be better off with his nephew. Tony caught wind of Richie's plot and set the wheels in motion to whack him, but he was spared the trouble when Richie was murdered by his fiancée, who coincidentally happened to be Tony's sister Janice Soprano.

When Gigi Cestone, a Soprano crew soldier set to take over the Aprile crew, died of a heart attack while defecating on the toilet on November 25, 2000, Tony had no choice but to install his rival, Ralph Cifaretto, as captain. Tony had longtime problems with Ralph, despite the fact that the two grew up together with Jackie Aprile and Silvio Dante. Tony, in a fit of rage, once hit Ralph after he murdered a Bada Bing dancer named Tracee. Ralph also took Jackie Aprile Jr. under his wing, even though Tony and Jackie Sr. both wanted to keep Jackie Jr. out of the family business. In January 2001, Jackie Jr. held up the poker game of one of Ralph's associates, Eugene Pontecorvo, and shot at made men Furio Giunta and Christopher Moltisanti in an attempt to emulate his late father, Ralph had no choice but to order Jackie's death at the hands of his cousin Vito Spatafore.

Despite disagreements with Tony, Ralph became the top earner in the family, running lucrative construction deals such as the Esplanade Construction site and HUD scams in Newark. Ralph also owned a racehorse named Pie-O-My that died in February 2003 due to a stable fire. Convinced that Ralph killed the horse in order to pay for his disabled son's medical bills, Tony attacked and killed Ralph. He blamed the disappearance of Ralph on the New York family, particularly on Johnny Sack, who had a problem with Ralph due to a joke that was made about his wife, Ginny. Vito Spatafore was named captain of the Aprile crew in 2003.

During that time, Tony Soprano began to groom his cousin/nephew, Christopher, into a leadership role. Christopher, already a young and up-and-coming made man, and was named acting Capo of the Gualtieri crew in September 2002 when Paulie Walnuts was jailed on a gun charge (which was later dropped). Patsy Parisi was dissatisfied with this choice, as was Silvio, who wanted to see Patsy as Capo due to his seniority. Christopher was also named by Tony as his successor, but that was compromised when Christopher was found out to have a serious heroin addiction and was sent to rehab. Christopher was now cleaned up, and proved his loyalty to Tony in 2004 by giving up his fiancée, Adriana La Cerva, for execution when it was discovered that she had been cooperating with the FBI. As a reward for putting the Family above his own fiancée, Chris was made capo of his own crew.

It was also during this period that the working relationship between the Lupertazzi crime family and the Sopranos reached a rocky point in 2002, when the two families joined together to control the Esplanade construction site in Newark, New Jersey. Disagreements over the split of the money of the Esplanade, plus the HUD projects that Tony was keeping secret from Lupertazzis and the displeasure of Johnny Sack with Ralph Cifaretto, nearly caused the two families to go to war. Both Johnny Sack and his boss Carmine Lupertazzi blamed one another for the ensuing conflict, and reached out to Tony to whack the other as a means of ending the conflict. In both cases, cooler heads prevailed and the two families worked out a deal that satisfied everyone.

Class of 2004 (2004)[]

In March 2004, the prison release of "The Class of 2004" (Phil Leotardo, Angelo Garepe, Michele "Feech" La Manna, and Tony Blundetto) along with the death of Carmine Lupertazzi set off another series of conflicts. "Little" Carmine Lupertazzi and Johnny Sack went to war over the position of Boss in New York, and Tony had to deal with the insubordination of Feech La Manna and his cousin, Tony Blundetto. One problem in his family was easily solved when Feech La Manna was sent back to prison after stolen flat-screen televisions were found in his garage by a probation officer called on the orders of Tony Soprano. The other problem was complicated when Tony B. killed Lupertazzi associate and Johnny Sack's protégé, Joseph "Joey Peeps" Peparelli, in July 2004, on the orders of Lupertazzi Capo Rusty Millio and consigliere Angelo Garepe, in retaliation for the murder of Lorraine Calluzzo and her partner, Jason Evanina. When Angelo was killed in retaliation, Tony B. went after Phil Leotardo and killed his brother, Billy Leotardo, in an unsanctioned hit. Faced with threats of war and torture from Johnny Sack and Phil Leotardo, plus the unease in his own family, Tony Soprano was left with no choice but to kill Tony B. himself.

The relationship between New York and New Jersey families was further complicated when Johnny Sack was busted by the FBI on December 20, 2004 and sent to prison to await trial, and Phil Leotardo, still nursing hard feelings about Blundetto, was named Acting Boss of the Lupertazzi Family.

Shooting of Tony Soprano (2006)[]

By fall of 2004, during his house arrest and trials/re-trials, Junior would develop signs of dementia, due to a head injury sustained after being hit with a boom microphone and knocked down the courthouse steps, as well as several mini-strokes over the years. In April 2006, Junior's increasingly diminished mental capacity led him to shoot Tony in the abdomen, mistakenly thinking that Tony was former already deceased nemesis "Little Pussy" Malanga.

The shooting of Tony Soprano set off a media frenzy, with reporters stalking the Soprano house and outside the hospital, where Tony lay in a coma. Junior Soprano was arrested and questioned about the shooting, which he insisted must have been a self-inflicted gunshot by Tony, whom he labeled as a "depression case". The captains of the Family agreed to cut all ties to Junior and allow Tony to decide what happens to him. Junior was judged to be mentally unstable and was sent to a mental rehabilitation facility.

With Tony incapacitated, his consigliere Silvio Dante took over as Acting Boss of the Soprano Crime Family; however, Silvio was unable to handle the pressure of being Boss, and suffered an asthma attack that put him in the hospital. Tony, after a near-death experience, would awake from his coma soon after, just in time to settle a dispute over the future of Barone Sanitation with Johnny Sack and Phil Leotardo.

With Junior now in a mental hospital, and the family cutting all ties with him, Tony was now the official boss in both title and power.

Tension with New York (2006-2007)[]

In August 2006, while in jail, Johnny Sack reached out to Tony through Phil Leotardo to whack his insubordinate capo, Rusty Millio in order to prevent his potential power play within the Lupertazzi family. Tony refused at first, but had a change of heart after talking to Johnny Sack at his daughter's wedding. Tony conducted the execution of Millio with caution, bringing in two men from Naples to carry out the hit on Rusty and his soldier, Eddie Pietro. Johnny Sack later pleaded guilty in his RICO trial to lessen his sentence, thus making Phil Leotardo the boss of the Lupertazzi Family in all but title.

More complications occurred in the family when Vito Spatafore, the top earning capo of the Aprile crew and cousin-in-law to Phil Leotardo, fled New Jersey after his homosexuality was revealed, Carlo Gervasi was named by Tony as the replacement point man for the Family's construction interests. After hiding in Dartford, New Hampshire for months, Vito returned to New Jersey, approaching Tony about starting up a separate operation in Atlantic City involving prostitution. Tony considered the request, but ultimately decided that Vito needed to be taken out in order to placate Phil Leotardo, who was incensed about Vito's sexuality. However, Phil got to Vito first, breaking into his hotel room and watched while soldiers Dominic "Fat Dom" Gamiello and Gerry Torciano beat his cousin-in-law to death. Tony, realizing that Phil was sending the message that New York can do whatever they want, decided to hurt Phil financially as payback for Vito. Tony reasoned that a war with New York would prevent his family from earning. However, when Fat Dom went to Satriale's on a delivery stop and made jokes about Vito's death and implied that Carlo was a homosexual, Silvio and Carlo killed the New York soldier, thus complicating the matters for Tony.

Tony's response to Vito's murder was to blow up a wire room held by Phil in Sheepshead Bay — Benny Fazio was on the scene for the explosion. After a sit-down between the New Jersey and New York Families, a truce was nearly reached before a reference from Little Carmine to the death of Billy Leotardo resulted in Phil Leotardo storming out. At a conference with Gerry Torciano, Albie Cianflone, and Butch DeConcini, a decision was reached to take out a high-ranking member of the Soprano crime family. Butch was particularly vocal in his desire to kill Tony, but Phil had more sense than that, and decided against it. Phil suffered a massive coronary soon afterwards and FBI Agent Dwight Harris informed Tony that someone on his crew could be in danger. In an attempt to clear the air between them, Tony paid a visit to Phil's hospital bed, telling him of his own near-death experience.

In November 2007, during his disagreement with Phil about an asbestos removal project, Tony reminds him of their discussion in the hospital, but Phil snubs him. Tony retaliates by taking two members of Phil's crew off a project payroll, after which one of them threatened and sexually harassed Meadow. Tony retaliates by nearly beating him to death. Phil refuses to meet with Tony after this incident and war between the two families seems imminent.

The New York-Jersey War (2007)[]

It becomes clear that there is no compromise available between NY and NJ, and as a result, the wheels begin to move. New York convinces Soprano family soldier, Burt Gervasi, to switch sides, and he approaches Silvio Dante to join in on a coup d'état attempt on Tony. The likely idea is that if Tony is killed, Silvio will take over and make peace, and Gervasi will be rewarded. Silvio responds by betraying Burt Gervasi, and strangles him to death in his home with a garotte. Tony knew what had to be done, and arranged for Phil Leotardo to be executed. At the same time, Phil’s underboss Butch DeConcini had a war-room discussion with his crew where he arranged for the leadership of the Soprano family to be wiped out. Phil had put contracts on Tony, Silvio, and Bobby Baccalieri, Tony's brother-in-law and newly-elevated Underboss, who replaced Paulie Gualtieri when he stepped down due to prostate cancer. The hit on Phil went awry, however, as Phil's Ukrainian mistress and her father, who was mistaken for Phil, were killed.

The hits on New Jersey go much better, however. Bobby is killed at a model train shop when two assassins ambush him. Word comes down that Leotardo has vanished, and the Soprano Family decides to do the same. However, as Patsy Parisi and Silvio Dante attempt to go on the lam, they are ambushed by a pair of New York hitmen outside the Bada Bing. In the ensuing carnage, Silvio Dante is shot multiple times, but Parisi manages to escape after fending off the assassins. Silvio is rushed to a hospital where he is left in a coma. Tony and some of his soldiers head to a safe house to hide, as the search for Phil continued, and Tony attempts to sleep while holding the AR-10 rifle in his arms, which Bobby gave to him on his 47th birthday, surrounded by bodyguards.

Tony came out of hiding shortly after and, after Bobby’s funeral, arranged a sit down with Butch DeConcini and Albie Cianflone through "Little" Carmine Lupertazzi and retired Boss of one of the Five Families, George Paglieri. During this meeting, the Lupertazzi Family agreed that Phil Leotardo's decision to go to war with the sopranos was a bad one; and had gone too far with killing Bobby and that they would back off. Tony also demanded that they give him a location on Phil to pay back for killing Bobby. Butch refused to tell of Phil's whereabouts, but was willing to give some kind of payment in retribution for Bobby's death. After Tony had given FBI Agent Dwight Harris the information on two Pakistani men that had been hanging around The Bing, he eventually told Tony that Phil had been seen making a call from a pay-phone at a gas station in Long Island. The Soprano Family began patrolling the area's gas stations looking for Phil. It wasn't long before Walden Belfiore, a Soprano Soldier, caught up with Phil at the gas station. However, the hit was sloppy, as Phil was shot in the head and in the chest in front of his wife and infant granddaughters, and his head was then crushed by his SUV. Later on, Carlo Gervasi disappeared, and it would later be revealed that he flipped after his son was arrested for selling ecstasy, but also because of his anger towards Tony for his recent behavior as boss. Unlike the other informants in the past, Carlo's flipping would be catastrophic for the Soprano Family, due to his large info on their business in construction and the Newark ports, not to mention some of the murders that Tony probably ordered him to do in the past. On top of that, its possible the Five Families would be looking for payback due to Phil being whacked in front of his family. Either way the Soprano family is in a sticky situation, with seemingly the only way out being death or prison, thus bringing the series to its conclusion.
