What is the status today of Funaris son that is mentioned, "Jumbo" funari?

See now that he passed away in 2020. Did he stay a captain for a long time?

He took over his father’s crew, according to Carew but it was short lived as eventually, he was banished to Florida

why banished?

He claimed that Bobby Amuso and Christie Tick wanted Joseph martineli to receive a beating. This claim was false and he was also shelved over a few other things that were not mentioned

I’m glad that you and others have enjoyed it

Carew’s testimony brings me further and further away from the narrative surrounding this period
