At the bottom of the article below it says the following -

A former NYPD officer is also accused of smuggling guns to the Bonanno Family. In a separate indictment, Patrick Balsamo, AKA Patty the Cop, is charged with interstate transfer of firearms.

If I am not mistaken, Balsamo is the retired cop who shot Gambino captain Carmine Sciandra back in 2005 during an altercation when Balsamo accused Sciandra's brother of groping his teenage daughter who worked at one of their stores.

Why?

It's strange that people think the Feds and Capeci are perfect and never make mistakes.
He created a thread saying half of everything Capeci says is bs. He's being glib.

I really don't understand how so many here end up with agendas about this stuff, like Hallibritain and his defence of his facebook groups. Unless you have a relative or a close real life friend involved in this stuff you really shouldn't be so personally involved IMO.
You’ve got it wrong . I wasn’t being glib at all , it was others on the groups saying that what capeci says is all bs . I happen to think capeci and the Feds info is usually bang on the money . Hence why it was strange that both got it wrong about cammerano’s title , when they are usually rarely wrong
Apollogies then. It's pretty weird addressing us with facebook group questions without telling us that's what you're doing.

I mentioned in my original post it was people on Facebook groups , namely Steve Lenehan and the author joe bruno who is a moron by the way

Looks like there were three indictments. The third one involving the scheme to defraud FEMA.


Two other indictments charge a gun running operation and a scheme to defraud FEMA of $80,000 in Superstorm Sandy recovery money.

Anyone heard of this Dominick Minieiro who is listed as an acting captain? Who could he be acting for? Old guy, 85 years old.
