gun to my head i think they lost there sources
Yup. I don't think Jerry had enough info to write about the Genovese indictment yet. I wouldn't write him off just yet though - he probably has just as much info as we do about it. GL gets a lot of info from lawyers... I'd give it another week or two; lawyers for some of the accused will definitely pass info on to Capeci and we'll get that via GL over the next couple weeks. Because of how weak the nature of the case is (gambling) I bet it'll take an interesting turn down the road and we'll get wind of that from Capeci (through the lawyers).
Still though, instead of info about Gleeson and the Gotti trial(s) ... which frankly I really don't ever want to hear about again for the rest of my life... he could have at least wrote a little blip about the fact that there WAS a Genovese indictment and let us know there will be more info coming. At least summarize the indictment, throw in a little speculation, give some background info on the defendants, give a recap of Basalmo's mob career, at least SOMETHING to tide us over until he gets more info. Even writing about that old 1970s Yonkers/Bronx bar article that was linked in the Genovese thread, and how that ties into the defendants today, would be more interesting than talking about John fucking Gleeson.
