Here is a breakdown of his crew in 2002 that JD put together.

beginning of 2002):

Captain: Anthony Graziano (60y)
- William Riviello (64y)

Soldiers
- Joseph Benanti (68y) (IP; FMC Devens)
- John 'Boobie' Cerasani (64y)
- John Cicala (44y)
- Peter 'Petey Box-Cars' Cosoleto (55y)
- Fabritzio 'The Herder' DeFrancisi (32y) (IP) [Can anyone find solid info that he got made before being jailed?]
- Edward Felline (60y)
- Anthony 'Bruno' Indelicato (55y) [Transferred to Basciano not longer after]
- Joseph Loiacono (47y)

Jesus Christ...i certainly hope not. I know that area is still a "stronghold" in modern times , if you can call it that, for the Bonannos, so its a possibility... but the guy in that article seems like a lunatic. It'd be crazy if he was a made guy. I refuse to believe that; maybe he's a relative, a son or nephew of the made guy
I don't think it's him either. But everything matches up, age, geography, rikers, etc.

The ages match up but who knows. I don't recall seeing a picture of Loiacano before.

Adam wrote: Wed Dec 02, 2020 2:43 pm So were the Bath Avenue guys(Gulino, Calco et.al) technically under Graziano's crew? It just read like they answered to Benanti and Benanti answered to Spero.
They were under Anthony Spero but Benanti was the go between.

This is a good story about them that Ed Scarpo wrote.
