Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
This matches what Mags and Fosco said, that Andriacchi took it upon himself to take the acting boss role. So now we have more support for this claim. Thanks for sharing this documentation, Snakes.
Just to reiterate what's been said, we should be skeptical of what Fosco and Mags say. We should also be skeptical of every other source, including testifying witnesses like Red Wemette and Nick Calabrese, and law enforcement agencies such as the FBI that depend on informants for their information. We test them by finding documents like this that can either corroborate or discredit what they say. Just like what Snakes did here.
Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
Agreed. And he's definitely a great source.
I will say one thing does stick out to me, in one of his later videos with Fosco he went into great length about the death of illegal gambling and bookies because of the internet. Said there's hardly any action anymore. As we saw, that's not the case. Again, I think he has motive to push that to cover for people he's known all his life.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
I agree with this statement 100%. It's one reason why it's been difficult to form a concensus about Chicago and why there are so many arguments about different aspects of this Family.
Some Chicago experts on here feel the Chicago FBI office did some editorializing over the years (i.e. Accardo as consigliere, just one example), whereas I'm more agnostic about some of those details. I defer to the FBI's information whenever possible but the FBI is inconsistent too at times and it's evident in FBI reports from the 1960s well into the 1980s that they struggled to map out a cohesive picture of the Family's inner-workings. Even a member CW like Nick Calabrese had a limited view.
I'm grateful for the original researchers we have here for mapping out some of the connections and relationships between modern Chicago figures, as it makes for interesting thought even if it's not conclusive. Their work is honest, well-researched, and open-minded.

Andriacchi: one of the few, truly low key guys (along with Tornabene). Luck certainly played a part, but there are other reasons why these guys never served serious time.Antiliar wrote: ↑Mon May 02, 2022 4:24 pmThis matches what Mags and Fosco said, that Andriacchi took it upon himself to take the acting boss role.

It's a new morning in America... fresh, vital. The old cynicism is gone. We have faith in our leaders. We're optimistic as to what becomes of it all. It really boils down to our ability to accept. We don't need pessimism. There are no limits.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
I read the last 10 pages up to here, never was in this thread before.
Arguments all around, gentleman. You all had disagreements but you argued them amicably and each made good points- Tony, Antiliar, Wiseguy, NewYorkEmpire, Snakes, certainly others I missed.
This thread is what makes the black hand forum the Black Hand Forum. Salut.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
Looks like global warming is helping to uncover old crimes. For a murder like this the speculation is obviously going to be on Tony Spilotro. We'll see how this turns out.
Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
Given the time frame they're saying, Spilotro and his crew would certainly be my first suspects.

What evidence do you have that proves this?
