Francesco Paolo Augusto "Frank" Cali[a] (/ˈkɑːli/, Italian:[franˈtʃeskoˈpaːoloauˈɡustokaˈli]; March 26, 1965 – March 13, 2019),[1] also known as "Franky Boy", was an American mobster and the acting boss of the Gambino crime family of New York City at the time of his death.[2] Law enforcement considered Cali to have been the Gambinos' "ambassador to Sicilian mobsters" and had linked him to the Inzerillo Mafia family from Palermo. According to Assistant U.S. Attorney Joseph Lipton, he was "seen as a man of influence and power by organized crime members in Italy".[3] Cali was shot and killed outside his home in Staten Island on March 13, 2019.[4][5][6]
