It didn’t seem like DeSantis was doing a bad job so if he hasn’t handed over the reins to Georgie already it doesn’t look like it’ll happen anytime soon. 33 people arrested means the odds a couple of them flipping is good.

Swat team surrounding his house for taking some bets... lmao overkill much

Wasn’t there rumours of maybe a gambino raid a month or two ago and nothing ever became public on that unless I missed it?

Think reporting was it was queens da, NYPD and waterfront commission that did bunch of raids including Danny Fama and Gurino. Friend in construction industry told me DeFalco Construction also got raided but maybe after the Fama searches, assuming it’s still connected to that case. Always suspected DeFalco was connected to Gambinos - we’ll see what comes of it

There is a DeFalco who runs Local 157 -Carpenters union, im pretty sure. Idk if it's any relation

Maybe it's someone from the Rhino sports pinch a few months ago... I don't think anyone would talk because of that popcorn fart of a charge, but who knows...

It'd be funny if it wasn't a representation of severely misappropriated public funds, services and priorities

Zappola came home in 2014 and now it seems as if he’s back in

Unsubstantiated rumours have surfaced which involve DeSantis retiring and handing over the Acting Boss position to George Zappola. If these rumours are true then of course I wonder if DeSantis will step down

Moreover, Pennisi (a reliable source) has said that if George wants to be at the top of the family, he can but Pennisi hasn’t said anything about DeSantis stepping down/retiring

Funny enough the owner of DeFalco’s name is Falco, assuming it was cut off coming into Ellis island - never know where the relations may extend.
