Re: [Current] mobster’s homes

Tony Parkside Capture.PNG Looks like it may have gotten a facelift, here's the current zillow for it with some scaffolding still visible on the outside. Pretty interesting that there are no pictures of the interior, only exterior pictures. Last sold in 2017 for $5.5M too. https://www.zillow.com/hom...

Re: Youngstown's Naples (Pittsburgh) & Carabbia (Cleveland) War

Yes, the "supreme overlord" as described in the article :o Looks like perhaps only the first page comes up when you click the attachment. I'll have to try to link the rest of the pages. Naples was Co-Boss of Youngstown with Lennie Strollo. The last supreme overlord I can think of was Domi...

5:27 Robert Furey -- Likely, yes, he was shot to death while outside changing a tire For whatever this is worth, someone who used to work at Youngstown United Music is telling me that Robert Furey was killed for skimming from Naples' machines (and a lot of other things) and that this hit was unrela...

Re: Angelo Lonardo Breaks Mafia in Ohio

Great thread! Interesting one of those newspaper articles on the first page has Carmen Policy mentioned as one of their lawyers. And a different article is about the developer Ed DeBartolo. Ed DeBartolo’s son Ed Junior was the 49ers owner for several decades, during when they won five super bowls. ...

Re: Full List of Nevada Casinos Controlled By Mob?

I should point out that, as Capeci said, it typically wasn't a case of an entire family having an interest in a casino but rather individual members who were involved. So, even though the above list has name a of cities, it would be individual members of that family. Some of those would include - G...

Re: Mafia in Ohio?

There are still bookies, loansharks, etc. left over from the old days in northeast Ohio. That's it. There's no actual Italian organization to speak of. No one kicks up to anyone, or anything like that. That my friend is the way it is now. Back then those were the days my friend I thought they'ed ne...

Re: Actual made guys in Youngstown/Mahoning Valley

So I take it there's no evidence Vince Deniro was made? What about Sandy Naples? I researched that question while writing an article for Inormer's special Youngstown issue. At least one FBI non-member source (from the early 1960s) maintained Sandy Naples was a Buffalo or Pittsburgh Crime Family mem...

Re: Actual made guys in Youngstown/Mahoning Valley

Thanks guys. This shit is too fucking complicated and thinking about it gives me a headache. Youngstown is my hometown and I lived through most of the fighting between Cleveland and Pittsburgh. I was friendly with most of the Pittsburgh "People" from John LaRocca to Michael Genovese. This...
