abstract	Dominick Scialo was born in Brooklyn in 1927, he had two older sisters and a kid brother. The New York census of 1940 shows his mother as the head of the household, his father was not present when he grew up. He seems to have been given the nickname "Mimi" at an early age, his family lived in the Coney Island section of Brooklyn, in a modest home at 2827 West 15th street, located just a couple of blocks south of the restaurant where Giuseppe "Joe the Boss" Masseria was gunned down in 1931. At an early age, he went to work as a longshoreman among the docks in South Brooklyn. It was here that he first came into contact with the various mobsters who controlled all kinds of rackets in that area. In August of 1951, Mimi first made the papers. He and a friend of his, Joseph Autori were reported as being shot in a tavern. The shooter, a former jewish prize fighter by the name of Alfred "Ally" Gordon, once arrested in a narcotics case, was quickly apprehended. The grand jury that indicted Gordon in this case heard testimony that he shot Autori to death and wounded Scialo because they had repeatedly taunted him with antisemitic remarks. On the eve of his own murder trial, Gordon was shot to death right outside his in law´s home in Coney Island. Police said that the shots had come from a moving car and later when the car was located, 10 shells spent from a 30 caliber carbine were found. Scialo´s rap sheet continued to grow. Between 1944 and 1959, he had been arrested 14 times on charges raging from felonious assault and rape to first degree murder. He was the main suspect in the Gordon murder but had never been sent to jail. He became a made men in the Profaci Family in the mid 1950's and was believed to be sponsored into the Profaci family by "Bath Beach" Johnny Oddo, a powerful Profaci member.
