Tessio (Abe Vigoda)

Character Analysis

Tessio (Abe Vigoda), along with Clemenza, is one of the Don's two main henchman (capos or under-bosses). Unfortunately, he turns traitor, scheming with Barzini to overturn the Corleones. Thanks to Vito's intuition, Michael is able to figure this out beforehand, and orders Tessio's execution.
