Re: Frank Gioia Jr. - Mob Rat Indicted today!
Looks like a fat slob. Wasn't he a blackbelt martial artist or something? Crazy his mom had him at just 16 years old too. I know none of these guys were saints but it seems the 90s Luccheses have a disproportionate number of egregiously scummy deadbeats compared to the other families I agree totall...

Re: Frank Gioia Jr. - Mob Rat Indicted today!
Gravano was sent to Arizona and set up nicely by the feds, he took over drug ring there, now this guy. Lol... YEP!... must be something in the fucking water over there. A lot of rats are sent out that way. And California is another widely used locale. Probably because proportionately there’s not as...

Frank Gioia Jr. - Mob Rat Indicted today!
Gioia..... under his new name “Frank Capri”, was nailed today for a multi-million dollar complex fraud racket he operated almost since the FeeBee’s relocated him into the Witness Protection Program (WITSEC). Relocated to Arizona, this self-confessed Lucchese soldier, murderer and heroin dealer waste...

Re: The Castellammare del Golfo Cosca - Cosa Nostra’s Gateway to the United States
Thanks for clearing this up Maxie. Not even mentioning his loyal soldier Galante in his book speaks volumes (no doubt he would have been major Bonanno asset during the family turmoil had he been out of prison ). A shame for Bonanno really, he was one of rare Bosses with a global reach , he had conn...

Re: The Castellammare del Golfo Cosca - Cosa Nostra’s Gateway to the United States
Thanks, interesting read as always. Bonanno built his family around his own compatriots, no doubt to ensure a sense of loyalty, but I guess one of difficulties when dealing with the renegade faction was that DiGregorio was himself - Castellmmaresi :). I agree. And to be truthful, I think Bonanno be...

Re: The Castellammare del Golfo Cosca - Cosa Nostra’s Gateway to the United States
Today, we’ve just released one of the most extensive and in-depth story lines I ever wrote. A story that is very personal to me. Near and dear to my heart of hearts! I am of Castellammarese heritage and some of the men you will read about are my relatives. The history of the Casteddammaresi “men of...

Re: The Castellammare del Golfo Cosca - Cosa Nostra’s Gateway to the United States
San Vito Lo Capo is a great beachside town to visit too! And if you’re in the area, Trapani and Erice aren’t too far either. Yes Stubbs, San Vito Lo Capo has become a major tourist attraction over the last 20-30 years. Especially for the Europeans. It’s like what our Miami Beach or Fort Lauderdale ...

Re: The Castellammare del Golfo Cosca - Cosa Nostra’s Gateway to the United States
Appreciate the effort (and enthusiasm) you put into this. Helps keep the forum afloat too. Thank you Lupara (I like that name Lupara... Lupo...the Wolf.. 😉), and yes all my investigative stories I’m very passionate about. But this one in particular I wanted (I needed), to do justice to! So glad you...
