Sebastiano DiGaetano (Italian pronunciation: [sebaˈstjaːno diɡaeˈtaːno]; c. 1862 – disappeared March 1912) was an Italian-born American New York City mafia boss of what would later become known as the Bonanno crime family. He briefly attained the title capo dei capi (boss of bosses) of the Sicilian-American mafia, after Giuseppe Morello had been convicted of counterfeiting money in 1910. DiGaetano stepped down as boss of his crime family in 1912, and disappeared shortly thereafter.
