Frank Cullotta

“From burglary to armed robbery, arson and murder, infamous bad guy and career criminal Frank Cullotta did it all.

Starting as a tough kid and thief on the streets of Chicago, he went on to become a trusted lieutenant in Tony Spilotro’s gang of organized lawbreakers in Las Vegas.

Cullotta’s world was one of high-profile heists, street muscle and information-lots of it-about many of the FBI’s most wanted. In the end, that information was his ticket out of crime, as he turned government witness and became one of a handful of mob insiders to enter the Witness Protection Program.”

Legends of Las Vegas

Most think of Elvis, Sinatra, or Wayne Newton as the legends of Las Vegas, but there is another legendary world in Vegas, the underworld, which built the city in the desert and had iron clad control for decades, the Mob.

The history of Las Vegas can not be told without chapters about the Mob and it’s control. Frank Cullotta relates the inside story of his personal experiences in his latest book HOLE IN THE WALL GANG, widely praised for its honesty, candor, and its authentic, behind the “wizard’s curtain” account of life in the Vegas Mob. Audiences have always been fascinated with the inner workings of the Mob and Cullotta delivers the goods in HOLE IN THE WALL GANG.

Frank Cullotta played a bit part in the legendary history of the Mob in Las Vegas as portrayed in the 1995 Martin Scorsese movie, Casino, where he was a technical advisor. The part of Cullotta (Frank Marino) was played by actor Frank Vincent and Cullotta himself played a hit man in the film. 2015 marks the 20th anniversary of the release of Casino based on the book by Nicholas Pileggi.
