Anthony "Tumac" Accetturo (born February 14, 1938) is an American former mobster who was caporegime of the New Jersey faction of the Lucchese crime family, popularly called "The Jersey Crew." Accetturo was demoted as leader of the Jersey Crew after falling affoul of Lucchese family leaders Vittorio "Vic" Amuso and Anthony "Gaspipe" Casso. With a murder contract placed upon the lives of himself, his son and his wife, and facing a lengthy prison sentence after being convicted of racketeering, Accetturo became a cooperating government witness in 1993.[1]
