Re: Genovese Family induction ceremony August 11th, 2003

Arillotta identified him as a high ranking captain when he first met him in the late 90s. I don't see how he could've been a high ranking capo when he was under Muscarella then when Muscarella went on the panel and served as acting boss, Patty Falcetti stepped in as Muscarella's acting capo. DeLuca...

Re: Genovese Family induction ceremony August 11th, 2003

While being a soldier he did seem to have a lot of clout in the family. He was mistaken for being a high ranking captain at times. I believe both Bologna and Arillotta identified him as such. What makes you say Arillotta was mistaken about DeLuca being a captain? I'd think his proximity to Nigro wh...

Re: Genovese Family induction ceremony August 11th, 2003

^ If that's the case then I wonder if it was a place linked to Pasquale DeLuca? He had a lot of gambling spots in the Bronx. His presence there isn't unusual though, DeLuca was scheduled to travel to Connecticut with John Ardito later that year to conduct a ceremony. While being a soldier he did see...

Re: Genovese Family induction ceremony August 11th, 2003

Yeah around that time it was Nigro, Dentico and Gigante. When Tranghese brought the Bruno paperwork to Nigro in the Bronx (meeting also took place at Nebraska) he huddled up with Dentico and Gigante then came back to give Tranghese the ok to kill Bruno.

Re: Genovese Family induction ceremony August 11th, 2003

Good intel, did anyone ever figure out who the LNU was? Or at least have a theory? No idea who the Nick could be. Arillotta has said in an interview before that it was an older guy. I originally thought it was a Joe who he was made with but it was definitely a Nick. The Joe that took him to the cer...

Re: The Genovese Family by Andy Petepiece (rant)

So is he a scam artist that couldn't give a shit about his reputation and is only interested in ripping off his readers or has he gone senile? Even a simple google search of who the past and current Genovese bosses wouldn't give you that DiMarco name. Has he noted the name down years ago from when i...

Re: General Mob Questions

There was a beef between the Gurino crew and Asaro's crew in the late 2000s early 2010s. Looking at my notes I can verify that Frank Guidice was referred to as Frankie from the car wash by Asaro and the Bonannos. Guidice and Frogiero were partners in a car wash and in a place called Carvell in Queen...

I'm curious where they got this nickname for Guidice from. Frogiero is known as Vinny car wash.
