"Another major narcotic case culminated in 1960 was the Giuseppe Cotroni Narcotics Conspiracy case. This case followed the arrests and convictions of Giuseppe Cotroni and Rene Robert and the seizure of Gkilograms of pure heroin in Canada in 1959. This resulted in the indictment of approximately 20 defendants in the southern district of New York on charges of narcotic conspiracy. The leading members of this conspiracy were Carmine Galante, John Ormento, Angelo Tuminaro, Frank Mari, Charlie Di Pietro, Rocco Sancinella, Angelo Loiacano, and Frank Mancino. Anthony Di Pasqua, Charles Gagliodotto, Salvatore Giglio and Louis Greco had eluded arrest during the roundup."
And yeah it seems he was a member of the Gambinos and also part of the French Connection

wise old owl sat on a oak , the more he heard the less he spoke , the less he spoke the more he heard , wasn't that a wise ole bird.

He was Genovese...... Here from DArcos book......
“But the mobster to keep the closest eye on, Al was told, was the smallest man in the group. Charles Gagliodotto was the size of a jockey, barely five feet tall. He had hooded eyes, hair gone gray, and an often ghostly pale pallor. He looked something like a pint-sized Boris Karloff. But no one dared kid him. “They called him ‘Chalootz,’ and he was a mad hatter. A stone killer. People were deathly scared of him.â€
For good reason. His killings had begun in 1925 when Gagliodotto, at age eighteen, was charged with shooting a rookie cop who had interrupted the robbery of a Jewish sacramental wine shop on Rivington Street on the Lower East Side. The teenaged Gagliodotto hid behind the cellar stairs, then shot the patrolman in the back of the head as he climbed down to investigate. A few years later, he was back on the street, serving as a proficient hit man for Luciano and others.
Many of Gagliodotto’s missions were cross-country jaunts to rub out those who had balked at going along with Luciano’s new world order in the Mafia. On those trips, the old-timers told Al, Petillo often accompanied him. The two slightly built men had a special technique to help them get the drop on their victims. “They’d dress up like women. They’d wear hats and veils and dresses and stick the guns in their purses. That way they could sneak up on people, do the hit, and get away. One time, Davie and Chalootz go to a funeral. They wore black veils.
They get in the funeral limousine with the guy they’re after, and pop him right there in the car. They did at least a couple dozen hits made up like women.â€
That estimate meshes with one offered by an FBI informant who told the same strange tale to a bureau agent back in 1960. Referring to Little Davie as “Betillo,†the unnamed snitch described him and Gagliodotto as “two of the most feared members of the Italian syndicate.†The informant added that “it was common knowledge among the hoodlum element†that the pair had “killed between 20 and 30 persons in Detroit, Cleveland, Chicago and New York.†The memo of the interview offered a slightly different wrinkle on the duo’s deadly mode of operation: “Betillo often dressed as a woman and Gagliodotto accompanied him as an escort. In this manner, they aroused “no suspicion in contacting the victim, and identification was almost impossible once they succeeded in fleeing the scene of the murder...

He hit Frank Tuminaro, Angelos brother and another guy, Gangi I think....
Not sure who's crew he was in, or who his capo was... Any thoughts out there guys??? It says Gangi was the father of Frank Gangi who turned evidence against Tommy Karate Pitera in the early 1990s.
