The '''Leone family''' is an Italian American [[Mafia]] criminal organization, originating from Sicily (referred to by [[Salvatore Leone]] as "the old country") whose main base of operations is in [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]]. Salvatore Leone became the Don of the Leone family after a bloody power struggle during the mid-1980s. He has a son, [[Joey Leone]], who much to Salvatore's dismay is not wed yet. It is assumed that Salvatore became Don after his unnamed brother was killed. The Leones are clearly based off of the Corleone Family from The Godfather; this is also supported by their involvement in the gambling industry. | The '''Leone family''' is an Italian American [[Mafia]] criminal organization, originating from Sicily (referred to by [[Salvatore Leone]] as "the old country") whose main base of operations is in [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]].

The Leone family was active in [[Las Venturas]] in [[1992]], where they held a stake in [[Caligula's Casino]] with the [[Sindacco Family|Sindacco]] and [[Forelli Family|Forelli]] families, possibly in an attempt to unite the organizations. The casino was later robbed in a heist organised by former ally [[Carl Johnson]] and the [[San Fierro Triads]]. | |||
It is assumed that because of the great loss of money from the heist, Salvatore abandons his investments in Las Venturas and returns to Liberty City, allowing the Sindacco family to retake their position within the city, however this is merely speculation. Not only that, but the shock of Carl (previously a loyal associate) betraying him and stealing so much of his money right from under his nose drove the Don to paranoia. | It is assumed that because of the great loss of money from the heist, Salvatore abandons his investments in Las Venturas and returns to Liberty City, allowing the Sindacco family to retake their position within the city, however this is merely speculation.
