}}'''Samuel "Mad Sam" DeStefano''' (September 13, 1909 − April 14, 1973) was an Italian-American gangster who became one of the [[Chicago Outfit]]'s most notorious loan sharks and sociopathic killers. Chicago-based Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents, such as William F. Roemer, Jr., considered DeStefano to be the worst torture-murderer in the history of the United States.

The Chicago Outfit used the mentally unstable and sadistic DeStefano for the torture-murders of Leo Foreman and Arthur Adler, the murder of DeStefano's younger brother, [[Michael DeStefano]] (an Outfit enforcer), and many others. However, due to DeStefano's deranged mental state, the Outfit never let him become a made man. At least one Outfit insider, [[Charles Crimaldi]], claimed DeStefano was a devil worshipper.
