THE BLACK HAND FORUM

What mafia trials are currently on going in NYC at the moment? Tried googling some by each family name but couldn't find much info. Any info would be appreciated!

What are your thoughts on when Mikey Scars sees those two Lucchese guys in Mulberry Street? Staged or real?

Is there a rule on killing other members in front of their family? I know there are cases like Bobby Boriello and Nick Rizzuto, but are they exceptions to the rule or are those types of hits generally accepted?

Stevan Tod, where did you get those documents of the Asaros?

Are any of the restaurants on Mulberry Street still owned by mob members or has that changed now? Same question goes for Arthur Avenue if anyone knows anything?

A while ago I found some webpage that listed the rap sheets for all the members of the Colombo family back when Joe Colombo was still boss, I tried searching for it again but unfortunately I haven't been able to find it. I was wondering if anyone else on this forum would have seen this page before a...

Not sure if this deserves its own thread, but whats the most powerful, current-day, African-American OC group? I know there was Nicky Barnes and Frank Lucas a while ago is there a powerful black organization in NYC nowadays?

Thanks again for the responses everyone. Anyone got any recommendations for places in Brooklyn?

Im not that big of a fan boy lol.

Thanks for the responses, any of these places got good food as well?

Going to be in the area in a few weeks, was hoping to check out some mob hangouts and restaurants etc. if any of you know of any places where the wannabees hangout?

Yeah Im a fanboy, I admit it.

Are associates obliged to take orders from soldiers or captains to commit violence? I know that once a guy gets made he has to comply if he is ever to carry out a hit or beat someone up, I was wondering if its the same standard for an associate who is on record with a solider?

Sounds. Like you just answered your own question NE1020 Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk I know it happens every now and again, Im just wondering if its frowned upon and if guys can end up ostracised because of it. Like the Cherie Golden murder, what was everyones reaction to DeMeo killing a 19 y...

Whats the mob's attitude towards killing and beating up women? Even the toughest guys I've ever met in my life agree that hitting a woman is one of the scummiest things a man can do but yet you often read about some wiseguys being violent towards women and occasionally killing them

Complete psychos, they killed women and civilians and couldn't care less. Theres an old thread on GBB where someone who knew the crew personally and described how they were actually pretty well-liked in the neighborhood by the residents and how they were somewhat perceived as vigilantes. They were p...

Alright my bad, guess my info on DeMeo was wrong. But in fairness, wasn't Castellano reluctanct on giving DeMeo his button? I remember reading that Gaggi tried to telling DeMeo that there were benefits to just being an associate rather than a made guy.
