CRIME BOSS

A 'crime boss' is someone in charge of a criminal organization. A crime boss has command over his subordinates, and his profits come from his men's criminal endeavors, which he usually orders himself. Crime bosses are typically respected and/or feared by their men.
There is usually a typical structure which crime organizations of all sorts operate under. The Mafia, being a very prominent example, is by far not the only. Crime groups of all kinds have similarities and differences in their structure, and the names of certain ranks may differ, but the basic premise remains constant. The basic structure is as follows:
The Boss,
Underboss, Advisor, Captain,
Soldier,
Some groups may only have as little as two ranks; a boss, and his men. Or, it can be a semi-complex structured organization as seen in higher end organized crime groups.
