Arriving in the deserts of Nevada he was one of the driving forces behind the development of the Las Vegas Strip due to his connections not just with the Jewish Mob but the Italian-American Mafia.

Shatters the bones wherever user strikes no matter how strong the punch. Broken bones copy onto the user. I.E. if used to break someone's jaw, the user's jaw will also break in the same manner.
