Angelo Ruggiero

Angelo Salvatore Ruggiero Sr. (; July 29, 1940 – December 4, 1989), also known as "Quack Quack", was an American gangster. He was a member of the Gambino crime family and a friend of John Gotti's. After Gotti became leader of the family he made Ruggiero a caporegime.

During John Gotti's pretrial detention for a state case, which Gotti eventually won, Ruggiero acted as his liaison with the crime family. During a court hearing, he cursed and argued with the judge, resulting in his imprisonment alongside Gotti. This incident effectively ended any opportunity he had to become Gotti's underboss.
