Al Trucchio

Post by Browniety86 »

Hootie makes the claim that Ronnie Giallanzo abused Al, which I tend to believe is a lie...what kind of guy was Al? Respected?

Didn't Gene Borello say, when Ronnie G came over to his house after he pulled off that robbery, Ronnie referred to Trucchio as his friend. Unless I'm getting my Gambino captains crossed here but I seem to remember him talking about Al Trucchio.

I dont believe Trucchio is considered to be a tough guy.

Now what is the status of Trucchio? He's still shelved or simply returned in his former crew under Sassano?

He's said to Corozzo to fuck off only because Corozzo used his lawyer for send him a messagge and doesnt personally speak to Al and Corozzo was a shot caller then. Maybe when Trucchio was shelved must fight without other mobsters help but I doubt that he was abused.

Wonder if the story about Bobby Glasses slapping Al in jail is true?

If I remember right Capeci reported there was an incident with Trucchio. Could be true.

Ronnie G had beef with a few Gambino guys according to Hootie. One of the Gambinos threw one of Ronnie's guys in a pool or some shit and when Ronnie got to jail he bullied Joseph Scopo. Scopo was under Cacciopoli but Im sure he was friendly with the Trucchio crew so I wonder if thats what happened between them.

Hootie makes it seem that Al was much more of a money maker than his father, his father wasn't much of an earner and was only held in high regard because he inherited such a large crew (I can't remember from whom.) Hootie also mentioned Al's primary racket was bookmaking and hosting card games. I found Hootie's latest video super hard to follow, he is all over the place.

He talks so fast and changes subjects so quickly it's hard to follow. That's the vid I was waiting for too, for him to talk more about Al and Roc...

I know it’s hard to take him seriously, but Alite also said as much in his Pasqua interview.

From what I've read over the years, Trucchio Sr and Jr were both good money makers. Sr big bookmaking, drugs, active in both New York and Florida. Jr also big into gambling and, when his crew was busted with the Russians in that strip club racket, the feds said his crew was the biggest and most active in the family at the time.

AL is a big money guy... quiet not a violent idiot like some but i dont doubt he will handle business. his father was a shooter. and an earner. as far as their beefs etc their all neighborhood guys, they bump into each other. a lot of guys on the streets are running with bonnanos and gambinos together. over here. shits bound to happen.but ronnie G didnt abuse AL ,trust me not happening. frank radice yeah. but entirely different crews. those ozpk boys where viscious. and not afraid to kill. even if AL didnt pull the trigger himself he didnt have to go far to find someone who would. their wouldve been a war and honestly dont think ronnie g crew would come out on top. as far as shelved i dont know the truth, but he is respected. he keeps his mouth shut and does his time all while earning like a real gangster. but that gets overlooked these days. the administrations wouldve went ot bat for a guy like that over a beef in before times. now its a shit show.
