[edit] Biography

Known as Joey Zasa's 'bulldog', Anthony Squigliaro, known as 'The Ant', was notorious for dipping his bullets in cyanide before embarking on a hit. He followed his boss around at all occasions, appearing in Michael Corleone's apartment, during the party after Michael received papal honours.

Squigliaro was with Zasa during a parade through Little Italy, where Zasa was raffling off a car. Squigliaro got into a fight with a Lou Pennino who was damaging the vehicle, but Al Neri, diguised as one of the bearers of the Virgin Mary, pulled out a lupara and shot him. Zasa died shortly after, at the hands of Vincent Mancini.
