In lack of better things to do (I should get a life I guess...), I managed to identify three of the guys in the lineup.
2nd from left is Benny "Bugsy" Siegel, 6th from left is Louis Kravitz (a narcotics peddler) and 8th from left is James Feraco (a later member of the Mangano Family, murdered in 1940 or 1941.)
However, this gang doesn´t seem to be what we know today as "Murder Inc". The picture seems to have been taken in or around mid 1920´s. Note how young Siegel looks. "Murder Inc" was active in the 1930´s and if I´m not mistaken, Siegel was never arrested with members of the "Murder Inc" gang. I think that this is actually members of the "Meyer and Bug" gang, headed by Meyer Lansky and Benny Siegel.
I could be wrong though....

Just found out...
1st from left is Joseph Rosen (an actual "Murder Inc" murder victim in 1936),
3rd from left is Harry Teitelbaum.
4th from left is Louis Buckhous (with the eye patch) and
5th from left is Harry "Big Greenie" Greenberg, murdered in 1939.

The picture of Gotti with the "double chin" isn't from his last arrest. His last arrest was at the Ravenite in December of 1990. I think that picture is from earlier in the year, when he was on trial for the O'Connor shooting.

You mean greying hair in the suit? Check the date.

I mean the picture with Junior behind him. It can't be his last arrest because he was denied bail in that case, and the picture of him in the suit being trailed by Junior is clearly a residential shot taken in Queens.

Again some great photos above, especially the photo of the Camorra.
