Re: Family secrets case wipe out Chicago

IMO, the only loss was James Marcello and just the "aura" of the Outfit. Nobody knows what was really going on with Joe Lombardo so his imprisonment could have been meaningless, Frank Schweihs was still gonna die in 2008 anyway, Frank Calabrese would have only been on the street for a few ...

Re: Audio of Wire Worn on Basciano by Massino

These were played last week on a three part documentary series on the History Channel called American Godfathers: The Five Families. Part three was mostly about Massino and the Bannano family.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground

Anyone know is this is really Paul Koroluk's son? What a violent life these guys expose their kids to - I was told Koroluk Jr. was also in prison for 15 years at age 18 for shooting someone at a birthday party on Chicago's West Side. https://patch.com/illinois/crystallake/update-search-finds-drugs-...

Picture from 2019 of Solly D totally not looking like a mafia boss and Marco Damico. Is Rich Mancini and John Amato suspected of being anybody?

Re: Joey Merlino is back in town

Is there a general consensus on SB when it comes to his reporting on current events? I used to check his site before it had a paywall, but as others mentioned I had no way to confirm or dispute much of what I’d read. I'm sure he has a few sources that can tell him if someone is involved or even mig...

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground

Interesting article I've never heard that before. I just figured there's no way in 1950's Chicago you could run that kind of business without them having some say in it.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground

Does anybody know if Hugh Hefner was ever extorted by the Outfit in the early days of Playboy or if there was any investment into it or involvement by anyone?

Re: John Fecarotta-Chicago Outfit

It's been a while since I've read Nick Calabrese's testimony but I want to say the women was the wife of John Fecarotta's dead brother and Nick said it was pretty clear they had a physical relationship. He also said at one point on that trip John Fecarotta freaked out about something and said he sho...

Re: Chicago Outfit Boss Succession (1986-2010)

If Sal Cataudella was the underboss under Mike Sarno how come nobody believes he succeeded him instead of the usual names that they give? Half the part of being the number 2 guy is so you can step up to number 1 if/when something happens to him.

Re: Chicago Outfit Boss Succession (1986-2010)

Where does it come from that Mutt and Jeff mean Sarno and Cataudella? Not saying you're wrong or anything but I've always wondered how Mike Sarno could rise that fast. Federal court documents. I'll post a citation when I get a chance. https://theblackhand.club/forum/ext/dmzx/imageupload/files/23641...
