Merlino accompanied by who?

[Bing Bang 74]

Saw this image on Pinterest with the caption "FBI Surveillance Photo of Skinny & Cheese". The pic appears to be from Merlino's 60th birthday party last year, but I couldn't figure out who "Cheese" was. Anybody got an idea?

The only cheese sorta nicknamed I heard of is the Dinunzios out of Boston "big cheese," but if it was him you wouldn't be able to see anyone else in the camera shot.

That would put to bed the rumor cheese is In a nursing home in bad shape. Also he lost weight not big cheese anymore?

[Pmac2]

Vetere worked at dinunzios cheese shop and the 2 are close and merlino probably meet him in prison or it could be the little brother Anthony who I think they call cheese or little.

I suppose I could see it being the Cheeseman. Looking at old Fox29 footage the back of his head does look similar, so who knows, maybe he did lose a lot of weight.

Is this Shawn Vetere who was a member of Bobby Luisi's crew?

Did you try asking the guy on Pinterest?

I could be wrong but that looks like Mike Lancelotti.

I don't think that's any of the Boston guys. I thought a more recent street photo of Vetere in Philly showed that he had more hair.

This is Vetere last summer, that's not him.

Agree.

And he's acting for Joey which might reference the cheese (big cheese/head honcho) ref.

Almost no way its DiNunzio. IMO

Too much hair in the front for Lancelotti

Yeah, I was about to ask how bald Lancelotti was. Surely there’d be coverage if Cheeseman DiNunzio was hanging out with Merlino. Anastasia, Schratweiser and Burnstein would be all over it (wait, isn’t Anastasia retired…?)
It’s gotta be some Philly/Florida local.

This is front pic of Cheese… looks like he’s really trying hard to get himself on the radar so read into that however you see it…
