Leone Family

Overview

The Leone crime family is a Liberty City mafia family led by Don Salvatore Leone. In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas it holds a stake in Caligula's Palace in Las Venturas.

History

Caligula's is jointly owned by the Leone, Sindacco and Forelli families, with Ken Rosenberg as manager because none of them trusts the others. Salvatore spends time at the casino in 1992 to protect his investment.

Salvatore was reluctant to invest in Caligula's, but he eventually agreed. In San Andreas he spends much of his time at the casino with Maria Latore, keeping an eye on his investment and on his rivals. The family remains a major power in Liberty City and appears in several other games, including Grand Theft Auto III and Liberty City Stories.

Territory

The family's home is Liberty City. In San Andreas its presence is centred on Caligula's Palace on The Strip.

Leadership and members

Salvatore Leone heads the family. Maria Latore is his companion, and Mike guards the casino offices.

Role in the story

CJ works for Salvatore in Freefall, hijacking a plane full of Forelli hitmen, and in Saint Mark's Bistro, flying to Liberty City to kill Marco Forelli. The Caligula's heist then robs the casino the Leones help own.

Relations with other gangs

The Leones are rivals of the Forelli and Sindacco families and wary of the Triads' Four Dragons Casino.
