jesus...the've been dealing with this case for just under 3 years. and it says charges are still pending for Tuzzo? i bet hes trying to run out the clock. cant speak to his health but he's an old man, and very much looks his age (in the mugshot from this bust)

10 years for money laundering seems very harsh

Man Bobby 'Spags' Spagnola still at it at 71. An ex Springfeild cop and was involved in that "Boys from NJ" Luchese trial in the late '80's. Vincent Coppola is the son of Genovese mobster Michael Coppola

Another interesting point on Vincent Coppola is that he is a suspect in the Lawrence Ricci hit.

My fault, it was Louis Rizzo Jr that was a suspect in the Ricci murder, not Vincent Coppola. Vincent Coppola seems to be a wreck from the look of things “Coppola was arrested after state troopers spotted him snorting heroin in a parked car with other individuals at a rest stop in Woodbridge” https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nj.com ... utType=amp
Not a good look for the Genovese family

That made me laugh Slim ...good correction and i thought the same thing about Coppola when i read about him getting caught sniffing D at a rest stop. Tony put it best in Sopranos whem he told Chris something along the lines of having to worry about him flipping over a nickle bag of powder and if he wasnt his nephew he woulda put a bullet in his head along time ago. That was def a bad look for Coppola if he didnt get cleaned up he is a liability ....shit even if he did get cleaned up he still is ive seen people be clean Several Years and go back to that shit even when some of them did those years in the can . Listen i know theres plenty wiseguys not made and made that sniff powder and im sure theres more than we know that have done dope especially younger guys that got into the blues especially when you live that fast life and you got money you think your untouchable that you could handle it well once there in that cell and they dont have it they will do just about anything to do it weve heard of guys snitching for bullshit so if Coppola had did that hit youd almost have to take him out any serious crime you do with a guy whos got a habit you need to worry ....I apologize for getting off topic but what Slim said had me thinking back to that cause ive seen GREAT people turn to complete scumbags and have had friends that lived good lives or were on top of there thing and and lives were completely ruined over it and once they lose it all they dont care heroin/fentanyl really is a fucking epidemic in my area and the surrounding and as much as i hate seeing the government waste so much money on it especially that the success rate of people getting clean and staying clean is a joke people take suboxone and methadone everyday and still do dope and whatever else daily its a fucking shame but if you habent seen it then you wouldnt know that if there no methadone or suboxone i can promise you the crime rate would be on another level it would be wild nevermind if there wasnt that Narcan shit can you imagine the death rate then ? I know some people would just rather do away with the narcan and let them die and save some money cause most get hit with narcan and get there lives saved and literally go get more D immediately so not to get sick and there's others that have had loved ones die and wish there was narcan there to bring them back so won't comment on that anymore cause i dont want to argue and its a sensitive subject to some. Again, I apologize for getting off topic and starting a rant and i wont bring it up again ive just seen that drug to so much devastation it disgusts me what it does to people

Heroin is without a doubt the worst of the worst when it comes to drugs. It changes people completely. Someone in my family was hooked a long time ago and thankfully managed to get off. He’s a great guy, and the stories i hear of him when he was high and looking for money makes him sound like some other person. Anyway back to Coppola, he could possibly be shelved due to his drug problems. Just speculating but I’d imagine the westside would want nothin to do with him.

Yea hes made i believe in the article it said he was a soldier who knows if he was shelved or whatever but i guarantee he had to answer for it to someone not to mention his father must have been beside himself when he found out that when his son was getting ran down on by the Feds and whatever task force that he was in the middle of getting high on D in a parking lot with a couple others in the car he had a pretty big family in the area and they must be disgusted . What a way to get caught slipping i guarantee he was more worried about it coming out about him getting high and tge heroin then the other bullshit im sure people close to him obviously noticed the signs but for it to come out like that is a horrible look

Seems like the sons of a lot of made guys have substance issues. Armand Dellacroce, Coppola, Castellucci, Lefty Ruggierio (if the movie is accurate), etc.
