The family of Ed Lino, a slain mobster, is suing his alleged killer, mob cop Stephen Caracappa, for $100 million.
Caracappa, a former detective and his partner, Louis Eppolito, allegedly got $70,000 from Luchese family underboss Anthony "Gaspipe" Casso to kill Lino, a member of a hit team that had tried but failed to kill Casso.
The suit, filed by Lino's widow, Anna, also seeks to hold the city responsible, charging that the NYPD failed to properly supervise and monitor the pair.
