How can a family in a small area like Santa Maria di Gesù have 100+ members at one point?

Does anyone know where I can find the Pete Savino tapes? I was watching an episode of The FBI Files and they played the clip of him dropping Vincent Gigante's name in that conversation with someone named Mangano (Benny Eggs?).

did mafiosi ever have regular or armed conflicts with other ethnic criminal groups in the 90-2000s? I read a news article about Ronnie Giallanzo, it claimed that he and his team had a shootout in Queens (as far as I know, it was Latino), but the article was in Russian and the source was not reliable, is that true?

The Lucchese and Gambinos feuded with the Rudaj organization in the early 2000s.

The Italians and Albanians also feuded in a large jail brawl quite recently, correct?

Have we ever heard anything else about Grant Edward Norton? He was found murdered in London, Ontario in 2020. Supposedly he was associated with Pat Musitano, but police said there was absolutely no connection to his murder and Pat's bases on "a mountain of evidence".

All I can find is police had a few key suspects and that mountain of evidence. I just find it weird there's no suspect names released nor has there been any arrests, to my knowledge.

It's possible, I can't recall anything at the moment.

What’s the best book out there that’s based around the Lucchese family? I read Casso’s book but I want to read something from a different point of view.

I'm wondering, Do New Orleans and Tampa still have an active LCN presence and do they answer to NYC? How about Los Angeles and San Diego?
