Re: Bobby Bellavia..
In the comment section the poster said they're working on a book.
Re: Bobby Bellavia..
No comments from the outfit crew on this? This is wild.
Re: Bobby Bellavia..
I hate to be that guy because apparently it's now mean to say this, but I'm pretty sure this was posted a few months back. I can't comment on it personally, but others who can said Bellavia can basically do whatever he wants because he did a lot of time for the Outfit and has a lot of respect on the street.

Re: Bobby Bellavia..
We talked about it before a few months ago, that link is new but the clip is older.
Halfway down this page.

Try it now. Not sure how I screwed that up but I've edited it.
I almost finally got be the guy who does this instead of it being done to me per the usual but you beat me to it by two minutes.

Re: Bobby Bellavia..
Ha, well, Funk and I are paesans since way back, so I'm sure he took no offense
Re: Bobby Bellavia..
LOL i did not. All good, been on these forums so long it's hard to remember everything. I remember talking about the origin of his nickname, totally missed the link.
Re: Bobby Bellavia..
Pretty sure he was never formally straightened out though, is that correct?
Re: Bobby Bellavia..
I wonder which ceremony then, because I don’t believe he’s listed as being present at Scarpelli’s, and I certainly don’t remember seeing him at the big ‘89 Como Inn ceremony.
Re: Bobby Bellavia..
How would you know unless you were present? DeLaurentis is the only guy publicly ID'd as being at the Como Inn ceremony. If he was made, it would certainly be plausible for Bellavia to also have been inducted then.
Re: Bobby Bellavia..
Pretty sure the Como inn one was detailed in full, with Hatch Chiarmonti, Bobby Abbinanti, Poker DiForti, Pete Difronzo, maybe Vic Spilotro, and some people I’m missing all IDd. I think they (the feds) were tipped off to it.Snakes wrote: ↑Thu Dec 19, 2024 6:20 amHow would you know unless you were present?

It’s the scarpelli one where it was based on his word alone

Nick Calabrese testified that Scarpelli, Peter DiFronzo, Chiaramonte, Rudy Fratto, and DiForti were all made in 1988. DeLaurentis was described by an agent in an affidavit as being made separately in 1989 at the Como Inn. No mention of Abbinanti or Victor Spilotro.
