Cassarino told jurors that Royal Crown Bakery owner Joseph Generoso, referred to during the trial as "Joe the Baker," was "on the record" with the Gambinos since the early 1990s, when his sole operation was in Bay Ridge; later, he branched out to Hylan Boulevard in Grasmere.

Last week, former Eltingville mob turncoat Michael (Mikey Scars) DiLeonardo said Generoso first dropped Anastasio's name as a "friend" when the baker sought help from the Gambinos to ward off an extortion attempt by notorious Tottenville gangster William (Wild Bill) Cutolo.

Royal Crown co-owner Giuseppe (Joe) Generoso said he didn't blink during a tense sitdown with reputed mobsters Anthony (Todo) Anastasio and William Scotto - telling them he was his own "strongman."
