If any of you are interested, there's a podcast series called Crimetown that talks about crime in Providence, RI. Obviously, there are plenty of Patriarca related stories, but in one episode the creators were allowed to visit Bobo in prison and talk with him. Here's a link to that episode but I'd recommend the entire series, very well put together.

That seems to be long gone. They lost that when they lost LIUNA Locals 394 (building contractors) and 1030 (asbestos removal). Today their rackets appear to be low end stuff like moving untaxed cigarettes, stolen property, loansharking, minor gambling, extortion and minor drug dealing.

That was speculation. "Horse" was IDed as the Acting Boss and "Milk' was IDed as Street Boss. “Big Head” was IDed as a Capo. Nothing has come out on who the new Boss is.

Also on the members who have flipped list only Salemme, Mercurio and Rosetti were made. You can add Robert "Bobby Cigar" DeLuca, Gaetano Milano and Antonino Cucinotta to member defector list. Joseph Napolitano may be another one.
