Either they formulated that poorly or he was Cirillo's successor.
Cirillo was identified as the acting boss in April 2005 when he was indicted.
Capeci (citing Fed sources) first identified Leo as acting boss to the public in November 2006.
That 2010 press release says "beginning in about 2005 Daniel Leo became acting boss..."
So Leo apparently succeeded Cirillo, if not immediately, soon after Cirillo was indicted. Maybe Ianniello was between them briefly before his own indictment in July 2005.

Ok I can go with what we thought before this thread but the 2006 Capeci article clearly states Mario Gigante as an acting boss. It looks like it would be around the time after the Cirillo indictment. You have to admit Mario could have been acting boss after Cirillo and before Leo. But the Bologna article states Mario is the acting underboss for Leo. So maybe Mario was misidentified as acting boss and was instead acting underboss.

It seems to me even the government didn't know who acting boss was judging by all the different names listed it all different articles and indictments they just tried to list every member of the panel in those high positions. Like I said the ruling panel was no doubt just each captain being the boss of thier own crew and then reporting to Mario Gigante since he can get direct messages from and to Chin and they thought he'd be out on the street again. When Chin died Barney was still in jail so they made Danny Leo acting boss with the plan to have Bellomo take over when he got out

Not sure how you come to the conclusion the feds didn't know. Even though we don't have enough info to put a concrete timeline together, there's been no contradiction in what the feds have said.

Wasn’t cirillo on a wiretap getting the final say on murder ? Thus the fbi can conclude he was the acting boss before being indicted

They got Mario Gigante acting boss, Cirillo acting boss, Matty The Horse Underboss or acting boss, Leo acting boss.. All i'm saying is I wouldn't be surprised if they just threw titles to names to make indictments stick better. Although I really do think when Chin died Leo was acting boss then Benny Eggs got out in late 06 and Bellomo in 08 prob had a ruling panel until Bellomo was off supervised release. No doubt all those guys were holding it down for when Chin got out and then after he died for his protege Barney

Well they used so many different names Matty the horse, Cirillo, Mario Gigante, Danny Leo.. Either way I think we can all agree the point of the ruling panel was to have a team of guys hold things down until Chin got out and then when he died till Bellomo got off supervised released

Yes, at different times.

That theory has been thrown out before but, besides there being no evidence for it, it could potentially undermine the Fed's credibility over time. They don't need to invent titles to indict mob guys.

Bologna was never made right?
Correct. He was an Associate.

It's a new morning in America... fresh, vital. The old cynicism is gone. We have faith in our leaders. We're optimistic as to what becomes of it all. It really boils down to our ability to accept. We don't need pessimism. There are no limits.

Curious he never got his button. Used as an emissary from NY to Spring. Dealt with Big Al directly. Privy to Gen admin info it seems (skeptical?).
I've read he turned it down because he felt it put a target on his back for the feds.
