Joe is on the Tucson list with Peter Notaro. They were the only two members for that city.

Thanks, I wondered who the other member would be.

Does anyone know who the first name on the Bonanno list is? He was serving life at Terre Haute.

Do you know when Mario’s son Salvatore was made? Now that you’ve clarified the redacted Gigante was Ralph, I think I remember reading info (from yourself or maybe Pogo?) that Salvatore was made in the early 2000’s, is now allegedly a capo and predominantly Westchester based?
Most likely made in the late 90s - early 00s either after his release from prison or after his father's release. Allegedly running his father's crew. The info is very speculative in nature. We need to wait if he gets picked up or if his name pops up in an upcoming indictment.

Also, do you know what rackets/criminal activity Salvatore is allegedly involved with and whether or not he’s taken over any of his father’s rackets? Correct me if I’m wrong, but was Mario’s crew based in Westchester and focused on garbage, gambling and loan-sharking?
Mario Gigante's crew operated primarily in Yonkers and all over Westchester County. They were also active in the Bronx, Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Sullivan, Rockland counties, and New Jersey. They specialized in garbage industry racketeering, loan sharking, and gambling. Mario filled in the debt collector role for the family for decades. Back in the day, his favorite pastime was stomping unlucky debtors in the dick until they bled.
Thanks Eboli.

Samuel Bagnasco
Joseph Barbara, Jr.
*2 redacted names
Anthony Corrado
*redacted name
Peter Corrado
Anthony Giacalone
Anthony Giacalone, Sr.
*7 redacted names; the one immediately following Tony Giacalone, Sr. is imprisoned, so I guess that'd have to be Vito.
Vincent Meli
*3 redacted names
Raffaele Quasarano
*redacted name
Anthony Tocco
*4 redacted names
Anthony Zerilli
So this is my guess on the redacted names for Detroit:

Parentheses are my guesses:

Samuel Bagnasco
Joseph Barbara Jr.
(Dominic Bommarito)
(Frank Bommarito)
Anthony Corrado
(Paul Corrado)Either Anthony's son or Dominic's son.
Peter J. Corrado
Anthony Giacalone
Anthony Giacalone Sr.
(Jack V. Giacalone. I looked it up and I think he was still in prison at this time)
(Joseph Giacalone)
(Vito Giacalone)(I think he was out now)
(Anthony Lapiana)
(Dominic Licavoli)
(Bernard Marchesani)
(Joseph Matranga)
Vincent Meli
(Joseph Mirabile)
(Anthony Palazzolo)
(Michael Polizzi)
Rafaelle Quasarano
(Antonino Ruggirello)
Anthony Tocco
(Jack Tocco)
(Nove Tocco)
(Pete Tocco)
(Maybe one of the Tringalis or Triglias)
Anthony Zerilli

I'm surprised Sam Finazzo isn't on there. Or Dominic Allevato. But open to people's ideas.

There is a later list in November that adds Silverio Vitello to the list as a soldier. No other changes were made that I could see. If it helps, the imprisoned member was in Morgantown FCI with a release date of 7/22/94. Jack was released in 1995 but this shit wasn't really an exact science so it could very well be him.

Thanks Snakes. Even though Vitello never was, I'm not surprised that the FBI thought he was. In that case I'd drop the Tringali/Triglia one and put him in. I think the in prison one is still Jackie Giacalone, if only because if Vito comes next after Anthony, there's no way I can fill in those other redacted names if there are no Giacalones after Vito.

Adam, either Tringali or Triglia are probably on since there is still a redacted name prior to Vitello.

Gotcha. So they were at 29. That's good to know because that's the number the Free Press cited in 1996 in the Gamtax bust. But I totally see them thinking Vitello was made seeing as he was showing off a scar on his finger claiming to have been made and he'd been around the Giacalone's since the 1960s. Ballsy.

Looking back at the Lucchese chart it's interesting to see Vincent Zappola identified as a member so early

He came to mind, but he wasn’t in jail at this time. He would be sentenced to life in the 2000s for murdering Robert Perrino and Sebastiano DiFalco in the early 1990s.

Antonino "Anthony" Aiello is currently serving a life sentence (albeit now in Hazelton), so it may be him.
