Was Benny Eggs ever a capo

[InCamelot]

Of the Village Crew?

And aside from the guy from Ramapo leading QD's portion of what used to be this crew, who leads it now? Still Mario?

[InCamelot]

Only an acting Capo. He was one of Chins most trusted people.

When was he acting capo? For whom was he acting for? Thanks!

[Giacomo_Vacari]

1985-1986, maybe earlier than that. He was acting for Dominick Cirillo, this is the Greenwich Village crew. This was a time where LE snagged Fat Tony, and a couple of high ranking members close to The Chin, and distrusted a few lucrative operations in the Genovese Family. After the Commission Case, Mangano was bumped up to Underboss.

I'm pretty sure Cirillo didn't become a Capo until after the death of Dom Canterino in 1993.

Guys, was Bobby Manna ever a capo for the Village crew?

When he was out in Jersey was he a capo or just consig?

Thanks guys

Manna was one of those few Capos or Soldiers from a different crew that rented an apartment in the Village to stay close to Gigante. Bobby Manna was a Capo to a New Jersey crew.

It´s pretty clear to me that Manna was a member of same crew as Tommy Ryan, that is the Greenwich Village crew. An informant said so according to a document found on Mary Ferrell dated in mid 1960s. If he was transfered later on to be under another captain, I don´t know. But if you do, please name your source.

Manna´s elevation to capo and eventually to consigliere is still a mystery. I haven´t found anything that fully explains his rise.

Manna was Identified by Joe Valachi as being part of a New Jersey crew loyal to Vito Genovese after Vito became boss, he was an associate to the Greenwich Village (Vito Genovese) crew before being made in Jersey right before the books closes. He was seen with Catena, Tieri, and Eboli on some occasions during the 1960s.

Yep, both Manna and Dentico were NJ-based members of the Eboli crew, made in the late 1950s according to documents from that time.

If he was a captain it seems possible his crew split off from that crew in the 1970s.
