I read in some newspaper a few months ago (I can't remember which one I'm afraid) that Leggio had since died. It's possible - he'd be about 80 now - but I can't find any reference to it one the internet. If anyone knows if it's true I'd be grateful, just to round off this article. Any other info on him would be useful too. That's the problem with writing articles about Mafia guys, especially Sicilian ones - they're so damn secretive about everything! :) [[User:Robert Mercer|Robert Mercer]] 20:41, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)
