Pennisi should be OK with it. He's all about that independent let your voice be heard journalism. He did call out Capeci first which we think that Capeci was in the wrong based on Pennisis account. It is a little vindictive, but what Pennisi creates a blog out of nowhere (which I like by the way) and calls out Capeci for this perceived slight. Capecis articles have not been what they once were, but the guy put out quality work for decades. If your this amateur (which he admitted to not really knowing how to write) and call him immediately, I mean you kind of get what's coming, No?
I think you guys are missing the bigger picture here.

Do you guys think Larsen is handling mob business or just a guy who knows people?
The way you talk, you just confuse him.

Too many cases coming out of port Newark for it not to be mob business

Wow, I really am missing the big picture if Larson is handing mob business.
I thought this GLN article was about Pennisi calling out Capeci. What am I missing?

Boldening the titles of each story helps tremendously. Thanks Chucky.

i don't have any role in these articles. I contributed one article and it was on Pasqua and Mancuso. So, I'm not sure what you mean.

Inconsistencies with his stories. You guys can say, well he's not going to remember every detail but if you remember before he stopped writing about people, he relayed verbatim conversations from years ago, yet he can't be accurate about more current happenings?

Look I'm not a Pennisi fanboy and wouldn't take anything he or any other rat says as gospel, especially in the context of a podcast/interview/book. But this inconsistency is so trivial - "on the stand he said that the one guy told him minutes before, but on his podcast he told his co-host who was drinking wine and giggling that the other guy told him moments after" - that I stand by my statement that Capeci is coming off as absurdly petty and makes him look kind of ridiculous tbh. Especially considering he's charging people money for "content" like this.

I agree though mafiastudent to what your saying-not 100%, but the gov't( district attorneys, AGs, detectives, etc) do pounce on any slight inconsistencies in an accused statements which is to why one of if you ever been in trouble before or knowing the legal system is to not say anything. Even if you get the date wrong by a day in can be used against you, or times, or the name of a landmark, business etc.whether it's a lie or just forgetfulness

I had something happen to me when I was 20-21 yrs old. I had law enforcement blowing up my phone, voice-mail etc I ignored them all. Nothing ever happened to me, but come to find out a year or so later the people on the side of this incident had too much to drink that night (they denied it at first then over time they admitted it. Moreover, the night they claimed this incident took place could not of taken place at such night bc it was "girls gone bus night" at this particular bar and that was one specific night of the week did not occur on such...so I'm speaking to personal experience(s).
