How is active the DeCavalcante family?

[SonnyBlackstein]

Do we have a semi accurate idea of the family today?
Admin, Capos, members?

The chart is dated and useless.

There is no real insight past what was established in 2015 and then subtracting members who have died since that point (such as Merlo, Guarraci, Manny and John Riggi, Joe Gatto etc.)

Chin has a thread for the family around that time (I made a photo chart based off his info some time ago here) - the only additions would be Joseph Sclafani and Carl Corsentino as captains via some recent interviews with Giovanni Rocco. Given that it has been nearly a decade and both are now in their late 80s, you probably couldn't reliably identify them as holding positions anymore

[gohnjotti]

Good list Chin. Without verified inside sources, we are always going to be a few years off on the charts.

That's quite a few made guys, no?
I feel like it is.

It puts them on par with New England, though slightly smaller than Philadelphia.

Yeah, I counted about 30 still alive in that list, not counting if there’s any new or unidentified members.

[johnny_scootch]

Yeah if you account for the unknown members and the members made since 2105 they're on par with or larger than all the other families outside the NY5.

(L to R) Johny Brains Cerbone, Mikey Red Nobile (Colombos), unknown and Nino Schifilitti (nephew of Pino Schifilitti)

Mikey Red was involved in that Lenny's pizza thing.

[Massive-Sail]

yeah before going with Joey Amato he was with Frank Guarraci

For you is better the Colombos or the DeCavalcantes?

of course is more prestigious the Colombo family,
but with the DeCavalcantes he has more possibilities to be unindicted and under the radar of LE

But maybe you can make more money,I think that yes the prestigioso but the real reason is that even if is the most small of the 5 families the Colombos have more rackets that the,DeCavalcantes.

That picture looks like it was taken at Beacon 70 in Brick at the Jersey Shore, great spot with a lot of hot broads. I am always there. I love that spot!

I know Pino’s Nephew Anthony very well, he was on some TLC dating show called MILF Manor and owns Nino’s Coal Fire Pizza in Brick, good spot.
