About Albert Tocco

  • Albert "Caesar" Tocco (August 9, 1929 – September 21, 2005), was a high-ranking member of the Chicago Outfit during the 1970s and 1980s.
  • He allegedly controlled the rackets on the South Side of Chicago, the south suburbs, and parts of Northern Indiana (Al Capone's old stomping grounds). On May 14, 1990, Tocco was sentenced to 200 years in prison for racketeering, conspiracy, extortion and tax fraud, after a trial in which his wife, Betty, testified against him.
  • She testified that, in 1986, she drove her husband from an Indiana cornfield where he told her he had just buried Anthony Spilotro.
  • Betty is believed to be the first wife of an organized crime leader to testify against her husband, and she reportedly entered the federal witness protection program.
  • Albert Tocco died of a stoke at the age of 77, on September 21, 2005, in prison in Terre Haute, Indiana.
