THE BLACK HAND FORUM

Is it false to say that I find it to be incomplete or incompetent journalism to not at least compare the three separate views?? To tell junior “well the guy in charge of crime in Chicago who is actually in the know says the opposite of what you’re saying. What is your proof that the outfit is compl...

Just watched the Goudie segment on Giancana. Nothing we don’t already know. I bet he names Accardo as the shooter tomorrow since Calabrese is heavily involved in this series. The segment called “The Mobs last supper or not” was aired originally on the 6pm news. Just watched a rerun of it and the FB...

On a lighter and immensely more appropriate note… Anyone else find it totally wild that no one from the old Elmwood Park Crew ever did any real prison time? Those guys truly had that town on lockdown. One has to wonder if it’s still the same today. Skip Saviano is still town president right? Cerone...

Looks like court record. That case number is for the Salvatore Avellino case

I always wonder if Joey Aiuppa and Jack Cerone watched Casino as they were out by 95 and died a few years later. Same with Vic Spilotro who died in 96. You got a major hollywood film that at the time was all over everything - and the mob genre at that time was still somewhat new (it was basically G...

How accurate is Nicholas Pillegi's Casino? I'm aware it's not regarding Spilotro's murder but is his time in Vegas generally accurate or what? I've seen the movie obviously but i've never read the book and i'm considering doing so if it's at least somewhat accurate. Is Frank Cullota his source or i...

So go post on a fashion message board, Jackie Jr, and confine your discussion here to OC

More info: The Cicero crew used to meet at the Big Top restaurant at the corner of Roosevelt and Austin (6001 W Roosevelt). Jimmy Marcello, Jimmy I, and Johnny Apes used to meet there. It was owned by George Kokenes, who lost money on it. Johnny Apes's son lived upstairs without paying rent. The pa...

Snakes - What are thoughts on some of these older guys who seemed to be serious players in the 90s - Disilvestro, Milito and guys like Posner - are they just retired and living on their millions? I tend to think guys like that wouldn't have much to do with a Carparelli type. Honestly, I don't even ...

I don't think we know enough to make that decision. We don't even know for certain if he is made

AMES MARCELLO

Age: 81
Race: White
Sex: Male
Located at: Florence ADMAX USP
Release Date: LIFE

Yeah, that's what we have been talking about the past 2 pages

Very informative on Admax - he's asked if he knew Lombardo or Marcello and thought they were not there any more - however Marcello is still listed as being in there: https://www.reddit.com/r/AMA/comments/1ejw4fh/i_was_at_the_adx_federal_supermax_prison_ask_me/ Glad you caught that thread, I saw it ...

Marcelo has killed a hell of lot more people than the Unabomber. :mrgreen: Pogo Likely true. Reading about the prisoner conditions at ADMAX is wild. From what i can tell, it's also not supposed to be a super long term solution, and he's been there a long ass time. There has to be more to this story...
