Wasn’t martichello a rat in the porter cocaine case

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source= ... q0qWYDGWnh Yes, Martichello was/Is a Rat ! I guess these guys are perfectly fine with that

If I was getting 50 to a 100 grand a week, I could overlook someone being a rat. Avoiding the big sentence that comes with murder. These guys are old and have kind of smartened up a little. The heat it would draw would also be bad for business. I guess you just don't tell that person anything.

There's no structure, Or family so I guess they have their reasons of justification

Per 1989 PA Crime Commission

Bobby I, a close associate of Wango Capizzi, collected Erie, PA lay-off gambling money from Alfred DelSandro until DelSandro's death in July 1988. At DelSandro's funeral, however, Iannelli purposely avoided contact with DelSandro's successor, John "Jack" Miller, 59, 5449 Pepperwood Circle, Erie. Miller had in excess of 35 numbers writers grossing $125,000 weekly in sports and numbers "action" at that time and, until late 1988, was considered the largest bookmaker in Erie. Since then, Miller's organization has declined and is now ranked third. In March 1989, Miller was indicted by the IRS on charges stemming from gambling-related activities.

Ironically, Ray Ferrito also had a large book that he took over after the murder of Frank “Bolo” Dovishaw and he laid off all his action to Manny Xenakis, partner of the Sabatini brothers and associates of LCN after he had cooperated with the Danny Greene Murder.

I can’t remember for the life of me if Marchitello cooperated against Porter. The name does not ring a bell regarding the Porter trial

I am not sure if he ratted on porter directly but I think he was tied into the case somehow , I had in my notes as a rat I will look into it later when I can get on my computer

Three or four of the guys who got indicted go back to the 70’s with Iannelli and probaly ciancutti as well ,

[JCB1977]

@Stroccos

I don’t believe he was a part of the trial. I am not 100% certain but I am close to positive that he was not

[JCB1977]

I know Marchitello was popped for bookmaking in Turtle Creek back in 1984, he was also charged with possession of 2 grams of cocaine

[JCB1977]

Marchitello was indicted with 28 people in 1988, he pled guilty to cocaine distribution. This was probably what you were talking about in connection to the Porter case because Porter was one of the 28 indicted. He did not testify against Porter but he was connected to Joey Rosa, Droznek and Noble. It’s safe to say that he was one of the dealers in the network. He pled out and got 5 years

James Martorella, was one of the brothers who headed one of Pittsburgh’s largest numbers operations in the 1970s. His brothers were Mike (head of the operation) and Anthony.

I’m not familiar with Frank Pasquino, but I remember a Joseph Pasquino was a city councilman in North Braddock and on the payroll of Frank Amato, He was convicted back in the 70s for extorting kickbacks from garbage haulers
