Gaspare Spatuzza (Palermo, April 8, 1964), is a Sicilian mafioso from the Brancaccio quarter in Palermo.
He was an assassin for the brothers Filippo and Giuseppe Graviano who headed the Mafia family of Brancaccio.
After the arrest of the Gravianos in January 1994, he apparently succeeded them as the regent of the Mafia family.
He was arrested in 1997 and started to cooperate with the judicial authorities in 2008.
In his testimony he claimed that media tycoon and prime minister Silvio Berlusconi made a deal with the Sicilian Mafia in 1993 that put the country "in the hands" of Cosa Nostra.
