Edit
  • Trivia
    Authorities believe he was murdered because he was involved in a cigarette-smuggling gang with an organized-crime ring and got caught skimming money from them. Because there was no sign of a struggle or of forced entry, police believe Bresciano knew his killers. He was shot 7 times in the head and a total of 10 times in the chest and abdomen area.
