Both Alex Jr and Sr did state time on that older case from Manhattan da … prior conviction certainly won’t help out his guidelines range for federal tax case

It was a great place … throwback establishment … had a graduation party there back in the day in the outdoor yard area. That area changed a lot. Esposito’s closed. Casa Rosa gone. Like everything else

Philly Inquirer reporter Joe DiStefano whose been covering Par Funding case in depth had an article saying Vinny Minisquero was on paper owner of two bars in Brooklyn: Court Street Tavern, 449 Court St., and Rebel Cafe and Garden, 2 Knickerbocker Ave., but his name was taken off liquor licenses, and...

This search could have been in the works based on a cooperator not in this indictment. We’ll see.

Amazing its property belonging to Sal DiLorenzo. Sal was owner of PAL, one of NYC’s biggest demo outfits.

I’m pretty sure in Gleeson’s book, he said it was based on a still secret informant.

The idea that they heard steps, and saw an apt upstairs belonged to a wise guy’s widow and that was enough to bug an old widow’s apartment seems hard to believe.

One other interesting thing about this case are the references to shell companies controlled by these guys, Lanni and LaForte, and way LaForte kicked up money to Lanni from the Par scams through shadow using the shells/LLCs and chalking the payments up to loans/consulting. That Frank Camuso case all...

Per the detention memo they embezzled/tried to embezzle from laborers local 3 and Local 79.

Yeah it’s really mind boggling - guy had to be so hammered … you’d think the 3 hours in between the initial dispute and the attack would have cooled him off.

I wonder who the demo / carting firm being shaken down was. Maybe Scars touches on this, be nice to get his view of Lanni

That is weird they turned that bar brawl into a federal crime?I wonder how it's federal. Did it enhance there stature in the Gambino family?Did it generate money? It wasn't over a gambling debt like that old genovese guy on trial for punching a guy rite now. Any one have a guess? That’s a great poi...

Sorry, realized par already mentioned.

Believe it’s Joe the Cat’s grandson. He’s also indicted in Philly with his brother Joseph. Joseph ran Par funding a massive scam, fleecing investors and debtors.
