Wait, you think I'm British? 100% American. The only red coat you'll catch me wearing is little Red Riding Hood after I wolf out on her.

Yeah, this entire time...

Yeah, umm, sorry I guess. To be fair though I thought you were one of those intellectual mateys: knowledge of fine wines, a thick silver Seamaster omega, has inside jokes with complete strangers, type of guy the police often question, just because they find you interesting. That type of guy.

You almost got it right, but it's:

- Knowledge of cheap whiskeys
- A thick skull
- Inside jokes with myself
- The guy police go to when someone is pretending to be a mobster online

Oh shit, I did record something where I read a Thom L Jones post out loud in a British accent a while back. If you heard that, maybe my impression of a smug Brit was more convincing than I thought.

Creative! How did you verbally demonstrate his hold over the emoticon?

Speaking of Stanfa's zips was Gaeton Lucibello one of them? I don't remember if he was or not. He was suppsedly best friends with Rosario Bellochi and started out as one of Stanfa's guy's (even being made by him) before he switched over to the Merlino faction.

Do you mean Biagio Adornetto? He was the other kid who was friends with Rosario Bellocchi and they were recruited together. They turned against each other but neither one joined Merlino. They were from Italy originally but definitely not zips.

Gaeton Lucibello was a good chunk older, probably around 40 at the time, and his family goes way back in Philly. I'm not sure exactly how he got recruited by Stanfa but I believe he was friendly with Massimino going back to the 1980's and that might be how he got brought under Stanfa's fold. He had already sided with the rebel group before Mike Chang was killed. Coincidentally, Gaeton's wife was the waitress who witnessed the Joey Chang shooting, as she worked at the diner. Lucibello is also the uncle of Ray Wagner, who is one of Merlino's closest associates.

Where does Massimini fit in all this. He isn't mentioned in Last Gangster of I recall and not in the goodfellas tapes either. Then all of a sudden he's underboss.

[Pogo The Clown]

No it was Lucibello. Bellochi claimed he was his best friend and implicated him in a lot of Stanfa's hits when he flipped. From my notes Bellochi implicated Lucibello in the following.

-An accessory after the fact in the Franceso DiGiacomo murder in November 1992.

-The getaway driver and the gun supplier in the attempted hit of Biagio Adornetto on Dec. 30, 1992.

-The killer and getaway driver in the Jan. 7, 1993 Rod Colombo hit. As well as one of those stalking to kill club owner Dale Lalwani in 1992 (for refusing to pay tribute) and Ron Mazzone (for skimming money).


They were also made around the same time so I was wondering if he was one of the "zips" (for lack of a better term) that Stanfa was using. I guess he wasn't. Thanks.

Massimino was in prison from early 1993-1998 so he missed most of that period.

Interesting. I knew he implicated Lucibello in those murders, but I didn't realize he had called him his "best friend". I assume the reality is that they were hanging around together a lot when they were under Stanfa and played the part of close friends, as many of those guys do.

I think he also testified that he was still in love with Sara Stanfa, haha. "I put your father away for the rest of his life, but I'll make it up to you, baby..."
