The Life We Chose
The “adopted” son of legendary organized crime boss Russell Bufalino, for decades William “Big Billy” D’Elia had unequaled access one of the leading organized crime figures in the United States. For nearly thirty years, D’Elia was at Bufalino’s side, and was a witness and participant to major historical events that have stymied law enforcement—not the least of which being the infamous disappearance of union boss Jimmy Hoffa. D’Elia became the de facto leader of the Bufalino family upon Russell Bufalino’s imprisonment in 1979, and he officially took control upon Bufalino’s death in 1994 until his arrest in 2006. Candid and unapologetic, D’Elia is finally ready to reveal the real story behind the myths and in so doing paints a complicated, compelling, and stunning portrait of crime, power, money, and finally, family.
