i would assume doms any where from 5 to 15 years if he pleas outdack2001 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 30, 2021 7:39 am The Feds are trying to hide from the public what a sleazebag they have for a cooperating witness. They are hoping to extract pleas from everyone. Judge is right here, the feds being disingenuous as usual. Meringolo and McMonagle know the fed system, this will get interesting. May result in some 1 or 2 year pleas for some and 3-5 for others. The interesting part of the case is the drug part. Makes for some complicating factors for guys at the top and bottom of the indictment.
it depends what dom pleads out to some of the charges like the drugs carry a 5 year min

Federal Prosecutors Claim “Threats Being Made Against Witnesses” in Latest Philly Mob Case

Recent court filings by federal prosecutors in the Racketeering Conspiracy and Drug case against Philly Mob Underboss Steven Mazzone and 13 others claims that attempts have been made to intimidate or threaten government witnesses in the case.
In one court filing, prosecutors stated “indeed the government is aware of several instances of threats being made against witnesses in this case.”
A judge last week refused prosecutors’ initial attempt for a court order to protect and limit access to their evidence and documents that might identify witnesses in the case at this time. The judge said the prosecutors request was too broad and suggested they might narrow their request and file another motion.
Prosecutors are expect to appeal the judge’s ruling.
Steve Mazzone, his brother Sonny Mazzone, ranking Mob Captain Domenic Grande and North Jersey mobster Joseph “Joey Electric” Servidio are the lead defendants in the case.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Jonathan Ortiz wrote “the government has identified many witnesses for trial, some of whom are incarcerated and others that are liberty and residing in the area. Some of the government’s witnesses are very closely associated with the defendants. The potential for intimidation of those witnesses is great if this court does not limit the ability to copy and disseminate the materials.”
Ortiz went on to say that “a number of the defendants criminal associates will be cooperating witnesses for the government at trial.” He stated that any copying and dissemination of the government’s evidence at this time “could place the cooperating witnesses at significant risk of harm if publicly identified.”
Prosecutors also said, “some government witnesses have informed the government that some of the defendants previously inquired of them whether they were cooperating with the government, had spoken with the government and/or had testified before the grand jury for the government.”
“Other individuals have indicated a concern about some of the defendants due to prior instances of violence or allegations of instances of violence committed by or at the behest of the defendants.”
Prosecutors told the trial judge on the case “the concern for the safety of the witnesses is great and warranted.”
They also claimed to be aware of past instances in other cases where “non incarcerated defendants or associates of the incarcerated defendants gained access to discovery materials and posted portions of those materials on various forms of social media in an attempt to intimidate witnesses.”
“Allowing the defendants to possess copies of the materials could endanger the safety of government witnesses.”
Prosecutors sought to limit access to evidence, documents, tapes and wiretaps to the defendants and their lawyers. They want the judge to prohibit the copying of any documents as well as dissemination of those documents to any third parties.

I am sure the rats the feds have backing up their case are being completely honest with them.

Yep. From the Servidio indictment:slimshady_007 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 26, 2021 8:20 pmWasn’t he the guy that some Philly guys wanted to whack?
On July 6, 2017, CS-1 conducted a consensually recorded meeting with JOSEPH SERVIDIO. During the meeting SERVIDIO stated that he and CARL CHIANESE intended to shoot a Philadelphia LCN drug trafficking associate (Individual 3) whom SERVIDIO suspected of talking openly and disparagingly about SERVIDIO’s criminal activity. After informing CS-1 that he and CHIANESE had at one point waited outside the intended victim’s residence for three hours, and that his intention had been to conduct the shooting inside the residence when the victim was alone, SERVIDIO said, “…Me and Carl got two phones, just (exclusively) for this, you know… the thing is everything is away, I’ve been leaving my phones (SERVIDIO PHONE 2 and SERVIDIO PHONE 3) home, I made him (CHIANESE) leave his EZPass home, we paid cash, you know.” […] Your Affiant believes that SERVIDIO was informing CS-1 that by leaving his other cellular telephones (which are subscribed in SERVIDIO’s true name) home, and by using cash instead of EZPass, law enforcement could not use electronic surveillance to track their location or to place those devices in the area of the residence of the intended victim.
CS-1 is Persiano and Individual 3 is Arabia
