About Patriarca Jr

[Nurzhamba]

What happened to Raymond Patriarca Jr. after his conviction in the racketeering case? As far as I remember, he got out of prison and after that he didn't shine anywhere, except that he was engaged in real estate, maybe there is fresh information about him?
How do you feel about Francis Salemme's reign as boss?

He was forced to step down and effectively shelved in the early 1990s.

Thanks. Do you think Salemme's testimony harmed the organization? As for me, it seems that nothing like that happened after flipped

There's not much harm left do so. Just a bunch of old guys trying to scratch out a living booking.

Did Gravano ever testify role Gotti/Gambinos had with the dispute between Ray Jr and the rival faction. I know some kind of sit down took place between Gotti and I think Jr Russo. Any good books that cover this period for New England family?

Here is part of his debriefing on that sit down.

I thought that Bobby Deluca testified in court that Patriarca Jr gave Hanrahan the contract to hit Baby shacks and Salemme and that was why the Irish gangster was shot on Federal Hill.

Did Patriarca Jr have any contact with the Winter Hill Gang?

Well, I think Frank Salemme testified against John Connelly. I don’t think he put any mobsters away. He was walking the streets of Boston ten years ago and not in WitSec. I guess you could argue since he didn’t put anyone away that nobody is looking for him, only excluding him.

I thought Salemme was juniors guy? Why did he want to whack him ? Anymore info on that with anyone ?

I find it interesting Ray Jr. is listed everywhere as a Real Estate Salesman. I Google him and find nothing. Also, most states highly regulate real estate salesmen. Why would they give a real estate license to a convicted felon who is a member of LCN?


Anyone got info on Ray Jr. in real estate?

[Pmac2]

think he owns alot of rental property probaly in some llc names or a relitive. he not sitting behind a desk like a loan officer or bring people to look at there dream house.

[Rocco]

Ray Jr owns apartment buildings in his wifes name from what I remember.

Did Flemmi give up any information on Patriarca Jr as I think that he was listed along with Sonny Mercurio as one of the sources used to bug the induction ceremony in Medford?
