Great stuff JD.


Curious about Salvatore Fusco being the Acting Boss/On a Committee in 2000. I though Joel Cacace was the acting Boss during this period?


Also curious about Ritchie Fusco being the Acting UnderBoss in 2008. How long did that last? Thanks.

Thanks JD. Any idea who else was on this ruling panel with Sal Fusco?

Just a guess, but trying to extend the longevity of the Family. Plus, after the war, and the convictions that followed, they had to try and fill what voids they could with the "Best available".

Thanks for the info JD. Do you happen to have adminitration make up between 2008-2010? This era is a little murky with Ralph Deleo, Benny Castellazzo, Tedd Persico, Ritchie Fusco and Andy Russo all having some role in things. Thanks.

Bevacqua was under Gioeli at one point, but I don't know if he was specifically acting for him. Could have been moved or given a new crew.

Carmine Sessa has Frank Politi as already being made by 1991. This is from those Sessa 302s that were posted awhile back.

Talking about Colombos unknowns, Sessa also mentions a Gary LNU as a Colombo member. I thought this might be a typo or a nickname for a more well known guy, but there is definitely a made guy named Gary who was still alive as of the 2000s. He's referred to as 'Gary from Staten Island', but still no last name. Anyone have an idea who this is?
There was an Emil Gary Clemente from Staten Island who was indicted with Jackie DeRoss. I'm not sure if his middle name or nickname is "Gary", plus he was indicted as an associate, but that's one possibility.

edit: looks like his middle name is Gary, as his cement company is called E.G. Clemente Contracting. Indictments don't typically list someone's full middle name, and everyone else on the indictment only has their middle initial listed, so the fact that his is written out might mean he goes by Gary.

He has been in prison since 2007. He doesn't get out until next year when he will be 99.
