Pic of Anthony Quaranta. Reading up on him with a friend in Chicago - one of his main partners is a relation of the late John Castaldo as well as the owner of several longtime bars like Mothers and The Lodge in Gold Coast. They own several various Polekatz and Scores strip clubs throughout the midwest. Quite an operation Mandell was looking to take over.

Never heard of him hanging out with the owners of Mothers or the Lodge. Him and the other EP guys like Tony Dote hang out at Village Pub which Dimitri Stavropoulos bought recently.NorthBuffalo wrote: ↑Tue Jul 30, 2024 6:33 pm

Google Pera Odishoo, who is listed as co-owner of the Quaranta's consulting business. He's assyrian from Cicero per my source and lives in Oak Brook - was affiliated with a Sam Sarcinelli for years. Quaranta is in Elmhurst.Patrickgold wrote: ↑Wed Jul 31, 2024 7:48 amNever heard of him hanging out with the owners of Mothers or the Lodge.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
For those of you who follow the labor rackets - this is a great old photo a friend in Chicago sent me labeled 'Bill Hogan and the Boys of McCormick.' I see Dan Hogan, Dane Passo and Sal Grautaudoro - one guy in the back row (young guy gold chain, no mustache) who I believe to be Richard 'Ricky' Simon who is someone I would suspect is still a major earner for the Outfit and was suspected of several murders for his former boss/mentor Ben Stein.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
North Buffalo, Rick Simmons runs a maintenance company that has outfit ties. Besides possibly giving kick backs for getting contracts and maybe having some ghost jobs, what kind of rackets do you suspect he is involved in to be considered a major earner? What murders was he suspected of?NorthBuffalo wrote: ↑Wed Jul 31, 2024 6:15 pm

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
Here is the best read up on Simon you can get - he was a rough individual who took over Ben Stein's company after likely whacking Stein's former girlfriend - he's also heavily suspected of the hit on Phillip Goodman who was one of Tony Spilotro's former associates and a known bookie:Patrickgold wrote: ↑Wed Jul 31, 2024 7:32 pmNorth Buffalo, Rick Simmons runs a maintenance company that has outfit ties.

Recent headlines regarding his involvement in Rivers Casino and multiple other notable big contracts. Also quite close to Garry McCarthy.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
Just got word that Joe The Builder passed away a couple of days ago. I know he was very sick the last couple of years. Don’t have any further details on it.

That old guard at the top of the family is going to be dropping like flies over the next decade. Actually that's going to be happening to pretty much every family. Will be interesting to see what the Outfit is like when those old guys are finally gone and the "old guard" is all people born after like 1950.
