Re: Merlino Trial thread
So is the sentence capped at 24 months, or could the judge give him more?

Re: Merlino Trial thread
Correct. The Judge can do almost anything within reason. I bet he gets a least SOME actual Jail Time. Habitual Offender problem is what the Judge will focus on and use for his reason when he passes his final Judgement.

Why wouldnt he be broke on paper? He has no fronts...if you have no fronts...you HAVE to be broke on paper.
He got involved in rackets in FL...because he is greedy and loves money, are you kidding?
So, you know that Joey is broke living week to week? Seems he is enjoying his life and has plenty of money to go around...nice cars...nice clothes...nice restaurants...but believe he is broke. Okay....
would you rather make 700 a week, pay your bills, save some and eat out once a week
or make 7 grand a week, eat at the best restaurants...drive a luxury vehicle, buy expensive clothes...save nothing then do it all over again?

Re: Merlino Trial thread
To be honest I don't think he makes a ton of money. I think the reason he got directly involved in rackets in FL as Boss was because he wasn't making enough of money from his Capo's in Philly to support his life style down there. I don't think the tapes lie when he is crying that he is broke.Fughedaboutit wrote: ↑Thu Mar 29, 2018 4:13 pmim sure he spends it as fast as he makes it but that doesnt mean he is broke if he is constantly earningRocco wrote: ↑Thu Mar 29, 2018 10:54 amI believe Joey when he says he's broke.

Of course the tapes lie, lol he is crying broke to get even MORE money out of these saps. What is he gonna say? Man I am flush with cash...dont give me any money.
He might not be making enough from his capos to support his lifestyle, but that is because he is an extravagant spender. You think Ray Wags isnt bringing his cut down there?
Joey is making money. But we can agree to disagree all night my friend

Re: Merlino Trial thread
Agree with Fuhgedaboutit. These guys are many times better actors than the ones you see in Movies. Their whole life revolves around lying and some kind of deception. They're good at it. Not saying Merlino is rich, but he ain't poor either. LOL

Joey gets handed envelopes, shoots into bookies, etc.
He may blow his $, but he is getting $ for sure.

18 months isn’t worth the risk of losing at trial , will be interesting to see how it shakes out
So what’s 18 months, 90%= 16 then maybe if he can get it a few months drug program ? 13-15 months and he’s back ,

Re: Merlino Trial thread
Here is what I make of what's been reported: Joey pleading to gambling, not a federal felony and not rackateering, so no three strikes. Plea agreement calls for available sentencing range from anywhere between house arrest and 24 months prison. Judge cannot exceed the 24 month range or Joey can withdraw his plea and go to trial. We would call this a binding plea agreement, which the Judge is bound if he accepts the agreement. My guess is the deal is for 24 month period, including that Joey's supervision ends at the 24 month mark as well. So he could get 6 months prison, 6 on house arrest and 12 months supervised release or something like that. Joey will serve his time and pray he gets out before the next Philly racketeering case gets filed so he can enjoy himself for a year or two and Eddie Jacobs again proves he is worth every penny he is paid.
Re: Merlino Trial thread
Did he have any time served before trial? Can't remember if he was on house arrest before trial. I would assume house arrest counts towards time served. Or was he out on bail?

I seriously doubt he is broke. If he was, he wouldn't be so willing to go a second round at trial.
Christ...Jacobs and his defense had to cost him like a million
