The '''Messina | |||
The '''Messina family''' is one of the Italian-American families based in [[Liberty City in GTA IV|Liberty City]], and part of the Cosa Nostra [[The Commission]]. Named after former boss John Messina, the Messina syndicate is based in [[Algonquin]] and [[Dukes]], but also controls [[Little Italy]] alongside the other families. The family is believed to be led by [[Harvey Noto]], who was able to establish himself at the top of the organization after a long and bloody power struggle. [[Mark Volpe]] is a Capo whilst [[Fredo Volpe]], another Capo and brother of Mark, has been a police informant since 1998. [[Harry Hall]] is the [[Underboss]]/[[Consigliere]] of the Messina family. | |||
In [[2008]], the Messina Family prevented [[Yusuf Amir]] from continuing constructing by the labor union. However, [[Playboy X]] saw a potential business relationship with Amir, and he therefore [[Deconstruction for Beginners|hired]] [[Niko Bellic]] to take down all union workers at Amir's construction site. Sometime later in the same year, [[Rocco Pelosi]] of the [[Ancelotti Family]] kidnapped a union official and had [[Luis Fernando Lopez|Luis Lopez]] torture him by [[Practice Swing|hitting]] him with golfballs. The union official revealed that the head of the [[LTA]] was working for the Messina's. He later revealed more information to Rocco, and he ordered Lopez' boss [[Gay Tony|"Gay" Tony Prince]] to [[Bang Bang|blow up]] all of the undercover Messina's with [[Sticky Bombs]]. Lopez himself took care of the job, resulting in a construction crane, LTA train and a private jet to be blown up. Harvey Noto, the boss of the family owns the upper class Majestic Hotel in Algonquin. This can be the family's base of operations, but there is no evidence to prove this. The [[Jewish Mob]] hired a few rooms in the hotel, hinting the fact that they may be allies to the Messina family, but this remains unproven. | In [[2008]], the Messina Family prevented [[Yusuf Amir]] from continuing constructing by the labor union.

The | The Messinas all wear black jackets with blue shirts under it. Their cars are also blue so its possible that blue is their favorite color. In GTA Chinatown Wars the Messinas all wear red clothing and their cars are also red. The reason for the color change is unknown. | ||
