On the contrary Supposedly Nicky Whip wasn’t allowed completely back into the fold in Philly because of his brother Gino flipping . I’ve only seen him with 10th and O guys and Stevie Gongs , Uncle Joe and the LCN guys didn’t welcome him back because of his brother flipping.

Thanks for your clarification about Nicky Whip and it make sense why Uncle Joe and the other guys did not welcome him back.

How about Daniel Marino from the Gambino family approving the hit on his nephew Frank Hydell for being an informant?

Speaking of Michael Franzese, interesting how he always dances around the question of whether he was involved in a hit. We all know the rumblings about his potential involvement in the Larry Champagne murder, and then there is this FBI 302 from Sal Miciotta...

Jackie Salemme and Jimmy Martorano are both alledgedly made and had brothers cooperate. Also were both Rosettis bad? Or was it just one who was an informant? Didn't Mickey Paradiso have a brother who flipped?

Merlino's uncle Yogi, I guess Nicky Jr stayed in the life after Phil Leonetti, but IDK if that meets the criteria.

leonetti described an episode in his book years after he flipped when he met back up with nicky jr in philly at a pizzeria iirc, was encouraging him to leave the life. i think leonetti was in the area for a funeral or something.

No it was actually at the restaurant Nicky Jr owned in the 90s called Amici in Ventnor and Crazy Phil showed up there unannounced and uninvited but he said in his book that Nicky Jr didn’t seem to mind him showing up there and they sat down/chatted. They are first Cousins.

That was the same restaurant in Ventnor Nicky Jr owned that in the 1990s Skinny Joey was supposedly trying to shakedown and also allegedly tasked Crumb Caprio & his crew from Newark down there to start getting a pulse on Nicky Jr to whack him. The hit never went down because Crumb Caprio was indicted and flipped and we all know Skinny Joey was picked up as well eventually/indicted.

I think it was only Mark Rossetti who was an informant but is now doing time in prison. His cousin Stephen who was a suspect in the Gardner art heist was released in 2019 without cooperating against anyone. Their uncle is Robert Guarente who is connected to Robert Gentile and Luisi.

Mickey Paradiso's brother Philip was an informant for the FBI according to these articles
