Stanfa family chart request

That is definitely one of the Iannece brothers. I believe it's Chaz but I've never seen what Vince looked like in the mid-90s so hard to say.

Here is a photo of Chaz Iannece from his arrest later in the 2000s.

Chucky will know for certain. Where's he been?

FWIW, there's a picture of Joseph Pedulla in the hardback version of Breaking the Mob by Frank Friel. I have the ebook but for some reason Pedulla's picture is not in it.

I sent a mugshot of Pedulla to Christie, so he should have it up on one of his next chart updates.

Looking at that Merlino photo again, I'm more likely to say it's Vince Iannece after all.

I have a recent pictures of Vince on my computer, 2 of them actually. I'll post later when I'm home..

I'm reading Robert Simone's autobiography right now and was surprised to see Pagano show up in it years before the Stanfa regime. I was under the impression that Stanfa had recruited him out of nowhere.

Where the hell did Tripodi come from? The moon?

Pagano went back a long time in South Philly as a low-level associate but was living in Florida through most of the 1980s. Haven't been able to confirm if he hooked up with the Scarfo guys down there or not when they visisted.

Tripodi immigrated to the US from Calabria and had a construction business and restaurant in Philly. No idea how he first got hooked up with Stanfa, but it wouldn't surprise me if they met socially and Stanfa took a liking to him because he spoke fluent Italian. At most he might have done a little sportsbetting but I doubt he was even an associate before Stanfa came along. He still lives in Philly but isn't connected to the family anymore. He and George Anastasia are friendly with one another, funnily enough.

Here is a photo of Tripodi.

Yep, that's him as well.

The guy on the left... Lucibello?

Merlino, Angelina, a guy who sure looks like a younger Iannece, and maybe Lucibello?

Is that Chang on the left?

The guy on the left... Lucibello?

It's Raymond Esposito, pretty sure.

Martines, Pagano is the tall man in the back, Stanfa on the right. Who is the guy in the grey/blue suit?

[Ivan]

Who is the guy in the grey/blue suit?

I read somewhere that guy is Salvatore Brunetti but I have no idea if this is true.

Adding this post to note that was what I read on some other website, but I think Brunetti was just an associate so it seems unlikely to me that he would be at a meeting of the boss, underboss, and capo. I always suspected it was one of the zips Stanfa made. I saw that image first on some documentary and was always curious about that guy. I've seen him in other photos to, I am pretty sure.

Christie, that's Chaz Iannece behind Merlino at the Mike Chang funeral.

I'm working on the Stanfa years with a new layout. Do we know who reported to who?

-Sparacio had Tommy Morrone as an associate. He was South Jersey
-Jersey is North Jersey
-Which leaves us Tripodi and Pagano. I wonder if Pagano replaced Tripodi? When did Tripodi flee to Cittanova?

[Angelo Santino]

And who were the associates during the Stanfa era? Gary DePalma, Herb Keller?
