Related to the Lonardo crime family through marriage, John T. Scalish was the head of the Cleveland crime family for over 32 years. His reign were considered the "golden years" for the Cleveland mob, which built an empire of casinos, pinball machines, and loan sharking. The Cleveland mob was so wealthy, it co-funded the construction of Las Vegas casinos, which provided a steady stream of income. His death was followed by a full-scale gang war for control of the Cleveland rackets by James T. Licavoli (Scalish's successor) and Irish mob boss Danny Greene which all but destroyed the Cleveland mob.
