List of Characters From The Sopranos in The Lupertazzi Crime Family - Dominic "Fat Dom" Gamiello

Dominic "Fat Dom" Gamiello

• Played by: Tony Cucci
• Appears in: "Moe N' Joe," "Cold Stones"

An overweight member of the Lupertazzi crime family under Phil Leotardo, Gamiello joined Leotardo in reacting with scorn when hearing of Johnny Sack's decision to take a plea bargain and break omerta. Gamiello joined with Gerry Torciano in murdering Vito Spatafore because of Vito's homosexuality, while Leotardo watched. Later, Dom visited Satriale's to deliver money to Silvio Dante and Carlo Gervasi. Dominic is a close friend of Silvio's and asked him for gambling advice. After Fat Dom made some crude remarks implying that Gervasi was also homosexual, Silvio silenced him with a blow to the back of the head with a dustbuster. Silvio told Carlo to just "hit him" but Carlo repeatedly and fatally stabbed Dominic in the stomach with a butcher knife. Dominic's murder infuriated Tony Soprano and Silvio and Carlo closed Satriale's under the cover story that a water pipe had burst, while they cleaned up and disposed of the body. Carlo and Silvio first planned to dismember his body but finally decided to bury it at a construction site and ditch the car somewhere along the side of a highway. Carlo was seen disposing of Dom's severed head (which he was keeping in a refrigerator at his house on the Jersey Shore) at the beginning of the next episode, by shoving it down a storm drain. Dom's only daughter lived in a motel in Metuchen, New Jersey and he had planned to visit on the day of his murder. Dominic had the Beethoven composition "Für Elise" as a ringtone on his phone.
