How is prison life for modern day Italian American mobsters? Are they still respected and feared?

[Nick Prango]

Keep posting these prison stories. Many thanks

This guy was Carmine Persico's right hand man in Butner federal prison. He has interesting stories about Persico. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TSihKy ... ConvictInc.

[Nick Prango]

This is a crazy story. Carmine Persico and his crew were beefing with DC blacks back in 2010 in Butner federal prison. Persico even wanted to hit this DC guy on the street. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBhDwV6 ... ConvictInc.

Some of these stories are interesting. Chad Marks has a guest one where he said Paul DeColegero (the Boston guy accused of killing whitey) got his face stomped in years prior.

I thought it was one of the Geas brothers that did it

I thought it was both of them. But Geas took the fall bc he's doing life and DeColgero is getting out someday. I guess they put it in a way Decolegero paper work said he had killed a woman and he "checked in" when he was transferred. I dont know if "checked in" means something. More over, one of them become a junkie. But the guest said Paulie Decolgeros name so he clearly meant he went after him. He was a dealer from Boston who got pinched and was hooked up with some of the Boston guys (he said Philly and Boston guys tend to roll together in prison)

Interesting stories about the "Chin" and “Fat Sal” Scala in federal prison https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r47SGoS ... ConvictInc.

[CornerBoy]

I think that Casso start the fight because he thought that because he was an underboss and Miciotta a simple soldier,he wouldn't respond to the provocations. Casso thought bad.

I doubt very much he thought Sal would just take the beating. Once Casso laid hands on Sal the rules were out the window and in jail you gotta fight back.

There is no rank amongst LCN guys in prison, So associates , capos and soldiers are all on the same level. But Casso had a huge ego.

This was in a unit for protectged witnesses-- no more mafia lol
