In this episode of Real Mob Stories with James Proctor, we dive deep into the life of Jimmy ‘The Gent’ Burke, the mastermind behind the infamous Lufthansa Heist of 1978, which remains one of the largest cash robberies in U.S. history. Although many know Burke for orchestrating this multi-million-dollar heist at JFK International Airport, his story is one of far more than just a single score. Starting as a mob associate in the 1950s, Burke worked with both the Lucchese and Colombo families, eventually gravitating to Paul Vario's crew. His early life was marked by abuse and foster homes, shaping him into a feared mobster involved in everything from loan sharking and hijackings to cigarette smuggling and even rigging college basketball games. Despite the massive body count allegedly linked to Burke—some say up to 50, including his wife’s ex-boyfriend—he was never charged for his role in the Lufthansa Heist. Burke died in prison in 1996 from cancer, leaving behind a chilling legacy of loyalty, and untraceable wealth. • #JimmyBurke #LufthansaHeist #PaulVario #LuccheseFamily #MafiaHistory #RobertLounge #MobHustler #RealMobStories #JimmyBurkeLufthansa #MafiaViolence #OrganizedCrime #QueensMafia #OzoneParkMafia #LuccheseCrew
