Re: "NY 1839:" the FBI's first Mafia informant

Amazing work as always, Ed

Curious, was Joe Carlino of Vic Reisel fame a relative to Luchese member Charles Carlino? A Lagano crew member in the 1970s.

Re: The Castellano Hit December 16th, 1985

Where did the information come from that Gotti was a target in addition to DeCicco at the Veterans and Friends bombing? I don't doubt it, but curious if that was Casso or who gave that info originally. DeCicco was likely as much of a target as Gotti given this admission to Failla, who was said to b...

Re: Alan "Grecco" Wolshonak

Two articles about Cafaro's testimony on Grecco's memberships status. When the congressional committee report was made public (early 80's) the FBI (NY & Newark) maintained Grecco was listed as a soldier - according to them- "long before 1983". So that would be both state and federal c...
