Current Gambino family administration

[aray22]

Boss: Domenico Cefalù
Underboss: Lorenzo Mannino (street boss)
Consigliere: Frank Calì

John Gambino was considered to be the most influent Gambino family member until his death.
Most powerful groups: Camuso's crew, Filipelli's crew, Corozzo's crew, Marino's crew.
Gene Gotti is likely asking for a position and most of all, money.

Source is 100% valid. Can't add more about it.

Figured we maybe revisit this post.

Peoples thoughts on what current situation is?

Camuso crew and Filipelli crew definitely seem to be very strong. Both have big money guys, heavily involved in construction.

Do we think Marino crew is still active? Marino crew historically had guys like Johnny G and Big Billy Scotto, any other members we can identify as being part of this regime?

Lanni crew comes from the 18th Avenue Mannino crew, I’d think? This crew has a lot of juice. Wouldn’t be surprised if Lanni is part of admin at some point.

Yeah, I think the Marino crew is still active. I think Marino and Lombardozzi are the same crew.

Didnt they "merge" back after the kiddie porn kinda lost him some respect?

I must've missed this case?

Marino crew got busted in 2010 Young guys in his crew were pimping out a 15 year old gir, Thomas Orefice was recently made at the time in his early 30s think he got about 10 years,, others involved were Dominick DiFiore was proposed to be made , wonder if he got straightened out, not exactly a good look

[Wiseguy]

There's just one giant crew in each Family and it has to be indicted every year to be viable.

Is that what I said?

So Devita wasn’t a powerful captain in 2020 because there are no cases and to your knowledge are barely any members left in his crew, they made nobody then. Think I’ll stick with Capeci on that one

Stick with Capeci, that's usually a solid strategy. But whether they made anyone in that crew or not, there doesn't seem to be a lot of activity. And by that I mean virtually none. The article by Capeci revealed family members of DeVita and the two other known guys in the crew have ILA jobs. OK. But when there's been nary a peep since the mid-1990s otherwise, one starts to wonder. At least I do.

I'll go even further than that. I said recently I'm pretty much of the position the DePiro (formerly Fiumara/Coppola) crew is the only Genovese crew based in New Jersey at this point. And if you look at the cases over, say, the last 15 years, they bear that out.

I question whether they ever really split and there being two crews. And the Marino case didn't involve kiddie porn. Among the rackets they were running an escort service. One of the girls was underage, 15 if I remember right.

Damn that's a hell of a story. Does anyone know if the Scotto kid is related to Billy?

Also mentioned a couple guys going away for 15 years for the Frank Hydell murder. One of them is Thomas Dono who got out 2 years ago and is currently 49. This article says "Around 2001, Dono was proposed for induction as a "made" member of the Gambino family as a reward for murdering Hydell, the indictment further states."

Does anyone know if Dono ended up getting straightened out? If he wasn't he's probably one to keep an eye on being made over the next few years.

If I remember correctly somebody on the boards said it was Billy Scotto’s nephew

[JeremyTheJew]

Is the Campos crew a good contender for the gambios like i have heard on the podcasts???

I use to read MOB CANDY magazine and there was a article vo written with a ANDY CAMPOS about his brother i THINK i remmeber correctly

[TSNYC]

Filipelli Crew / Background:

Louis Filipelli’s uncle was Arnold “Zeke” Squitieri, these guys all used to hang at The Pleasant Cafe on Pleasant Ave and East 118th Street back in early 2000s. Louis has a brother Anthony.

If still involved, I’d think Zeke’s son, Arnold “Bo” Squitieri Jr is part of Filipelli crew.

The Filipellis/Squitieris/Siscas all connected/related.

Alphonse Sisca, Jr. Ran an ambulette company located at 1174 Commerce Ave. in the Bronx.

Ed Sisca (funzy Sisca son) involved in construction. Owned a couple companies back in late 90s, FPC Contracting and Technical Construction, with Louis Filiepelli being involved with Technical Construction. In 1999, Ed Sisca and the companies were charged and convicted in a couple New York State racketeering cases for stealing money from city and bid rigging. Ed had a Kerik connection which is interesting: https://nypost.com/2004/12/16/kerik-mob ... ontractor/

Chris Sucarato (son of old time east Harlem bookmaker/gambler Nick Sucarato). Wouldn’t surprise me if he got made at some point.
Dominick Como, used to drive Funzi Sisca.
Michael Widing, used to run gambling at Pleasant Cafe, was very close to Filipelli.
Angelo “Skippy” Amen, close to Filipelli. Used to run Amen Construction, now runs big non union carpentry co. Did a long prison stretch for heroin trafficking.
Daniel Abbate, owned building at 1174 Commerce Ave, the Bronx, which had offices for both the Sisca ambueltte company as well as Angelo Amen’s construction co.
Frank Mahoney, involved in drugs/gambling, was close to Filipelli
Crew would frequent a social club at 3194 Westchester Ave, the Bronx, not far from Balsamo Funeral Home.

Some of this is dated but wonder if any of these guys still around.

Good word regardless! - still the same crew? or have any been shifted away

[CornerBoy]

The FBI is so profoundly dysfunctional on various levels at the moment that one would be have to be naive and a federal fan boi to consider them as speaking the gospel. These days, the personnel are lucky if they know who THEIR boss is at any given time.
I could call them every day and say I hate Americans and I intend to kill them, but if I didn't send a calendar invite with directions to the actual massacre, I'd be scot free.

Well put
