Angelo 'The Trojan' Granelli was a soldato of the Corleone crime family. He first appeared on the Corleone family chart at the senate hearings against Michael Corleone in 1959. He was in jail for dealing in narcotics and was also known to be involved in gambling activities.

In the video game, Angelo 'The Trojan' Granelli was an old and trusted soldato of the Corleone family who was known to be a master planner, often plotting to bring down entire families, assigning hits from the Holy Cross Church in Hell's Kitchen.
The Stracci Plot
In 1946, he and Aldo Trapani conspired to eliminate the Stracci family by destroying their explosives racket chain. It also gave Granelli the excuse to wipe out an old enemy, Stracci caporegime Oscar Zavarelle, who had assaulted his sister. He specifically gave orders for Zavarelle to be put in as much pain as possible. The plot also wiped out the entreuprenerial Leon Grossi and the family consigliere Jack Fontana.
Granelli had planned to assist Trapani in the killing of the Stracci underboss, Salvatore Stracci, but he was called away to other appointments involving his part in the secret regime started by Michael Corleone and run by Rocco Lampone.
After the death of Salvatore in 1947, Granelli ceased his war against the Stracci family and focused on other goals instead, some involving the narcotics trade that the secret regime was partially involved in. He may have joined the family led by Aldo Trapani in New York and was one of his key member in the drug trafficking in New Jersey before having been arrested by the authorities for drugs trading.
Personality and traits
Angelo Granelli became known as a man of business, who rarely got his owns hands dirty, unless it was a personal matter or involved a greater target.
