Antonio "tony bananas " Caponigro

Post by Stroccos »

Does anyone know if Tony Bananas was originally with the Genovese crime family? I Couldn't find anything on the net

I actually meant the Gambino family not Genovese

I think that's just one of the mistakes that comes from the Genovese chart at the Valachi hearings. Probably because Caponigro lived in New York, operated in North Jersey and dealt more with Genovese guys quite frequently

I read somewhere where Albert Anastasia put tony banana with Angelo Bruno so he wouldn’t get whacked
