Nephew of Philadelphia Mafia boss Nicodemo Scarfo, Leonetti served as Scarfo's underboss. Leonetti eventually confessed to 10 murders and testified against several Mafia families.

In a prior proceeding before the Commission, In the Matter of the Hotel and Restaurant Employees and Bartenders International Union Local 54, Docket No. 81-LO-1, Mr. Leonetti was found to be a close associate of a reputed career offender, Nicodemo Scarfo, and was engaged with him in a "criminal enterprise" (Id. at 11). Those findings were deemed to be sufficient to warrant the entry of a preliminary order of exclusion.
