Skinny's got people here in Vegas, no kidding? Any familiar names?

You could probably make a shitload of money shylocking here. Lot of desperate people, degenerate gamblers, etc.

I'm not sure how we're defining crews here but there aren't any LCN crews in Vegas or California today. Even 20 years ago, the only families with members still in Vegas were New York and Chicago. And there's nobody left in NE Pennsylvania to absorb.

Philadelphia has their small North Jersey crew. Still some guys up in Boston, maybe. And, Merlino has associates down in Florida. But the general trend, as far as their world and reach goes, is one of shrinking - not expanding - scope.

There was one guy that went to the Philly Family, I read a couple years ago.Forgot his name and probably old and hardly active. I'll try to find his name again . Had a nickname, so I'd probably remember if I see it. Who knows maybe he's dead. It could turn out he was never made in the Bufalinos

You talking about Billy D'Elia?

Joey has a crew of younger guys from South Philly that relocated down there with him. None of them are on any charts or anything so I won’t out them on here. They aren’t household names or even known. They’re all in mid/late 20s to mid 30s agewise.

Some guys associated with Merlino in Florida were named in a leaked interal FBI memo (from Wiki Leaks) a number of years ago. It was on the forum.

Burstein has Borgesi as acting. Anastasia has him as retired.

Yeah I was just wondering if there were Merlino associates milling around here. I don't believe there are any full crews here, though made guys turn up here from time to time I'm sure, and I think a handful still live here.
