That's what I'm saying!! Guy killed a Cop and a federal prosecutor father aiming for the son ! And all the other killings and attempts and he'll be out what ? Next year, Under 2 years . You'd think the guy would be on death row somewhere

He was also charged with having a former cop, Carlo Antonino killed in 1987. Throw in the Carini brothers also in 1987, Aronwald also in 1987, and if you go with him also manipulating the murders of Variale and Santoro in 1987, that was a busy year. Six murders all directly linked to Cacace.

Cacace has dodged far more bullets than the average mobster, but the narrative that he switched to the Persico side after a near miss by Scarpa isn’t true. Cacace was actually on the Orena faction ruling panel in 1994.

was It 2 sons, Or 3 ? I know one of his sons died about 2-3 years ago from a heart attack. And, I think one of the almost whackings of Cacace by Scarpa was when he rolled up on Cacace and his Tec 9 jammed . Then the other, Or was that the one Scarpa and Cacace had the 4 foot shoot out against one another behind parked cars where Cacace was hit in the stomach ? There was also the attempted hit and shootout I think in the florist, Or leaving the florist shop, Was that Scarpa also ? I cant remember off the top of my head

It was two sons, Joel "JoJo" Cacace and Steven Cacace. JoJo died four years ago, and Steven is still alive. Steven and their mom are now being accused of trying to steal JoJo's will from his 17-year-old daughter.

Other than Castellazzo and his guys, and maybe Joe Baudanza’s crw, Cacace doesn’t really have a huge following under him. He’s always been a sort-of standalone figure in the family, if that makes any sense.

Things are different now that the family is a lot more Persico-oriented with the exception of a couple of capos and crews.

I agree, I dont think there would be another war . But, Your right as Cacace being a Stand alone, But, The guy is one Treacherous,Calculating, Cold blooded, slick character and has balls ! He'll be much older when released but he definitely seems like the type who thinks he's owed something, Or deserves to be at the top in the administration at some capacity .Guys on the street definitely fear Cacace, His Treachery is legendary and I think he's all in 110% till the day he dies . Reminds me of a Sonny Franzese type, And not even Sonny Murdered Cops and federal Prosecutors

Cacace wanted to kill the men who botched the murder of William Aronwald, and he succeeded with Enrico Carini and the other guy whose name escapes me. Frank Smith was also slated for murder due to his role in the William Aronwald botched killing, but Smith was a big-time drug dealer working under Teddy Jr.
Teddy Jr. promised to his friend, Fat Sal Mangiavillano, that he would murder Cacace unless Cacace promised not to touch Smith.


But that was 30 years ago and since then, neither have been on the streets at the same time.

Teddy Jr., as we know, has been named the designated heir of the family. He’s in line for a promotion, for sure. Cacace might come back into the fold too, since his sons have apparently continued their involvement in the Colombo family since Cacace’s 2003 incarceration. Cacace’s sons might even be made, as they apparently worked directly for underboss Benjamin Castellazzo in illegal gambling and collecting tribute from Cacace’s old operations.
But Cacace’s status might be mired somewhat due to his role in the Ralph Dols hit, which was first confirmed by Joseph Competiello and Dino Calabro in 2009. Cacace did not have approval from Allie Persico for that murder, and Gioeli himself feared that he would be set up and killed for his role in the murder.
