THE BLACK HAND FORUM

Not so sure. Some here have info that he may be a made guy. Also, there is direct evidence he may be serious, or at the very least well connected. He was the go between when Mickey Davis needed to find someone to lay a beating on a debtor. Rovito introduce him to Carparelli. Not gonna name names he...

Here's another pic below of possible hit victim Bobby English, photo credit to Joe Puzzles. 2014, resisting arrest . OK I was looking up the old info on Bobby English on here (I'm fascinated by the case; the Outfit alledgedly whacking a 24 year old kid in the 2020s is pretty out there, even as just...

I’m not in the know as to current guys in that area in any way myself. I go back to visit family but have lived in NYC for a long time now. People tell me that they see guys that look the part at Imperial’s, Vinnie’s, Salerno’s, etc. — and that they see people occasionally in the old HSAC as well —...

I used to walk past Richards every day on my commute to work. I've tied one on with Bobby numerous times and he's always been a super nice guy. I've never mentioned the mob or anything like that, but he's bought me countless drinks over the years and always been super friendly. I worked in politics...

Some of this was in Scott’s reporting, but a couple years ago there were constant rumors and chatter about the feds really going after Vena and the grand Avenue crew. As we all know, they were able to get some key members with operation crew, cut, and the Chucky Russell thing, but Vena was left uns...

Someone who shall remain anonymous has told me that Paulie Carparelli is in fact made, and that he, Gigi, and Rainone are moving lots of cocaine through Capri Ristorante. Has this been alleged before? Couldn't find anything in search. I have heard that before. I also heard John Rainone has a member...

Doesn’t look like your typical Outfit associate

Yes, the guy is a bust out loser. Nothing like his father. I know some people thought he was the one feeding some of the information to people on the internet. He got talked too, to say it lightly. He hangs out with the other bust out Joe Fosco and spends most of his time on the internet posting st...

Patrick , You are splitting Hairs over semantics my man — has absolutely nothing to do with the substance of the reporting , just trying to get a “gotcha” moment from non contextualized minutia. This is a typical BH Forum peanut gallery hate for the sake of hating and ignoring the bread and butter ...

Bro, who’s delusional? Taz was a major leader of the 12th Street Players in the 90s/early 2000s as a teenager and in the first part oh his 20s , he’s in Prison on a home invasion homicide from Rolling Meadows doing 20-25 years . That’s it . That’s the context . Nobody said or wrote, taz was Outfit ...

Big Scott article on the present-day Outfit and its return to being a kind of major league for street gang types.
