Re: Billy D'Elia mob museum tmrw 8/09 on his book

I received an email from Birkbeck regarding a signing event at a Barnes and Noble with D’Elia. I live in the area and will be attending it. I included some info regarding it below. How was this? It was pretty packed. I tried to ask him some questions mob-related, but the author was sort of a dick a...

Re: Thomas "tommy" Agro

Read the Lufthansa book from a few years back. They had conversations in it between two dead people. How the fuck they know what was said with no third party there. It doesn’t make sense.

Re: Thomas "tommy" Agro

I don’t think he exists. Ancestry lists that DeSimone had multiple siblings, but none named Anthony. I find it amazing how much is wrong online about the whole Goodfellas stuff, simple things even like dates of birth and middle names.

Re: Made members working

I remember Pennisi stating that he met with some Genovese guys while they were working or right after they had worked. Think he stated construction. Another example is John Ciancaglini operating a lottery stand. He would meet with guys and It was under his wife’s name but he would still work. https:...

Re: What got you interested?

I watched Goodfellas at age 12, one day I noticed it said it was based on actual events. I researched the movie online and read Wiseguy. The rest was history. Since then I read many books about the life. Still have many to go. As someone stated earlier, the best part is discovering new information a...
