Frank Salemme

Post by Robert cissell »

I'm new here and this is prolly an easy one for yall. I've read and read about Frank Salemme in all the books about Boston LCN and the Winter Hill Gang. It never says when he was inducted and how. I know it was when he got out of prison but i read one time he was just accepted as being a member by default per say because of the time he had served. Can yall help me with this?

Check out Double Deal podcast, they do a lot of episodes on Frank Salemme and he is mentioned several times in other episodes as they describe and analysis Nee England crime in the 60s,70s and 80s in that area. One of the women is the daughter of Richard Chicovfsky, a mob associate bank robber from the 70s era..

Frank salemme testified in front of congress he was inducted by Ray Jr in providence rhide Island in June 1987 after coming home from doing 15yrs in prison. He was out for only 4 months. He also said he reported directly to Ray Jr in providence. It passed off alot of the Boston guys

The double deal podcast is an interesting and enjoyable series. I think they describe Frank Salemme as some kind of an early informant along with Howie Winter in one of the episodes.

Here is an article from Scott Burnstein about Frank Salemme's making ceremony.

It is well known that he testified against John Connolly the FBI handler of Bulger and Flemmi. He then appeared before Congress and spoke about the Deegan case.

I think actually I began listening after someone on here was very complimentary of it. So I tuned in and sometimes I'll listen on Spotify or on YouTube and they have photos on there

Disarro was killed at Salemme's house according to testimony from Flemmi and Deluca.
