So his brother must be "Joe Caffe". Didn't think of the name connection.

I do believe Pennisi has stated that Joe was a Bonanno associate before being released and made into the Lucchese family.


JD always gives proper credit when it is due.

I actually recall him being a Gambino associate and Blaise Corrozzo had told Pennisi that "they lost that trade". If I'm remembering correctly.

No need to get into it again but there was never an issue between him and the regulars here.
