Nepotism in the mob

Jmac. Course he made money his dad was the boss. Probably set him up with loads of different connections he’d have had. He weren’t really respected in Philly was he therefore I’d say he was a nepo baby. If his dad weren’t the boss he’d have been a nobody like the rest of us.
I don’t think you necessarily need to be a tough guy committing murders to be respected. Chicago had a few top guys who weren’t really killers for example so I don’t make that argument. As for not ratting then yeah in that world that is a rarity for the time he’s done so fair play to him for that.

People like to make fun of the Angiulo brothers because Jerry Angiulo bought his way in. Yet none of the brothers ever flipped and made loads of money for the Patriarca Family. Maybe not good examples of nepotism but this thread reminded me of them.

Jerry bought his way but the other brothers doesn't and was very feared and respected.

What money did he make when his dad was the boss? He didn’t catch his first case until his dad was away for a few years. I am pretty up on my 80’s Scarfo era as it’s mainly what I focus on. I haven’t heard one allegation of him being involved in anything serious when his dad was still on the street. Of course he was doing little things, but nothing major. When he got to North Jersey he started a pretty big book. After he was released from that case he became capo (some years later). His multimillion dollar fraud came after his dad was away for 20+ years and nobody recognized him as boss anymore. Again, I just don’t see what you’re saying as being valid.

No actually you couldn't say that at all.

Junior Gotti is a big example. He was made very young without having to do anything and very soon after was promoted to Captain (the youngest in the country) without really doing anything other than being the son of the Boss.

Good call, I’d say he’s actually the poster boy for nepotism in the mafia.

Nicky Scarfo Jr took 5 shots from an Uzi, said nothing. Took a 30-year sentence on the chin, said nothing. And he proved that he can make money. It matters not what he did when his father was on the streets, he cut his own cloth.

Ok. I stand corrected. Cheers for the info boys

Jr Gotti 1000 percent I seen that debacle personally just didn't wanna start a mob tube thing on this forum especially with dudes dum sister God she's stupid

Detroit must have a few nepo babies surely

I think for Detroit the one that sticks out is Anthony Zerilli. If not for his dad kind of seems like he would have been a nobody. Caused all kinds of problems for the family. I'd put Michael Polizzi on that list too. And Nove Tocco.

not john gotti's daughter. fbi report from the 70's talking about it that ive seen. why would the cops lie when he was just a young thug.

Junior is a rat, which i have no problem with but he shouldn't espouse all that omerta tough guy shit.

Funny how she never talks about her brother and nephew living w her mom selling oxy's, destroying HB.

Nevermentions uncle vinnie.

She's a dumb, vapid, insipid retard.
