B and PolackTony actually spoke very well of you when I signed up so I knew there was at least two of us.
I am humbled. Those guys are brothers from another mother.

I did not know you had connection to Sweden and Stockholm. Good to see a fellow Swede on these boards.

Obviously Bobby Manna is not dead and this thread is slowly but safely changing topic into Scott Burnstein s mob reporting. I am closing it.

Re: Buffalo/Ontario Mob Acitivity

I had to delete 20 or so posts in this thread because they are clearly breaking the rules of this forum. Do not flame another poster unless it is in the Graveyard section.

Re: New LCNBios posts

The post mentions one Andrew 'Benny the Old Man' Benzola as a member of the Harlem crew. This is probably who the "Joe Benzola" phonetic name is referring to. The FBI dead list carries a Andrew Joseph Benzola (1915 - 1984). There is some cofusion about this guy. He was definitely made but...

Re: New LCNBios posts

New bio Salvatore Mirabile (Bonanno Family) JD mentions three family ties to other LCN members. But a fourth one is equally interesting. The subjects son (John or Jack) married Davida Rava (b ca 1958) in the early 1990s. Davida Rava is the daughter (or possibly niece) of murdered Gambino heavyweigh...

Re: Thomas Carew testimony notes during a Lucchese Capo’s May, 1994 trial (Carew was close with Christie Tick and Chiodo

Very interesting and thanks for posting this. I am sure that the FBI listed Furnari as a skipper already in the early 1960s. Not impossible that he stepped down as skipper sometime later and made a skipper again in the 1970s, if that is the case. I haven’t seen anything which indicates that he was ...

Is it two weeks in a row now? I think last week's Gang Land has been posted. In any case, that you and others can read Capeci's Gang Land on here is thanks to fellow posters who shares it out of their kindness of their heart and is not a right you have just because you are a member of this forum.

Re: General Mob Questions

Does anyone have the exact date of death of Francesco Garofalo (Joe Bonanno's underboss)? It seems he died in 1968, but I'm trying to find out when I have been looking for the exact DOD but only found Feb, 1969.
