Thomas Agro

", "Tipp", and "Thomas Ambrosiano", was a New York gangster with the Gambino crime family who ran lucrative bookmaking and gambling operations in Florida.

While Agro was never promoted above street-level soldier, he enjoyed a privileged relationship with family boss Paul Castellano.

Ianuzzi would hold several weeks' or months' worth of interest ("vig"), delivering it to Agro whenever he visited New York.

On January 19, 1981, the enraged Agro found Ianuzzi at the Don Ritz Pizzeria on Singer Island, Florida and severely beat him with a baseball bat.

After surviving this attack, Ianuzzi decided to start working as an informant for the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

On one tape, Agro told Iannuzzi that he had survived the January attack only because the pizzeria owner's wife entered the room.

In 1984, Agro was prosecuted at the Home Run trials in Florida for loan sharking, extortion, and attempted murder.

The couple later moved to the Nuns' Island section of Montreal, where he deserted LuAnn for another woman, Ann Okcha.
