Below are the Ndrangheta related cases we've seen in New York over the past decade. The cases involving the Genovese family seem to be them providing protection and/or financing. What's interesting is all the West Side cases are connected to Federici or people around him like Romanello who took over his crew.
September 2008 - Project Reckoning/Operation Solare case targeted the Gulf and Zeta cartels in Mexico and the Ndrangheta. The Aquino-Coluccio clan and the Schirripa clan were the Calabrian groups involved. One article reported that Vincenzo and Giulio Schirripa had ties to the Genovese family in New York and sought out it's protection in the operation. Interestingly, one of those charged in the case was Christopher Castellano, who had worked at a business owned by Genovese member Anthony "Tough Tony" Federici. Castellano was later shot and killed in Queens in October 2015.
February 2010 - 'Ndrangheta member Vincenzo Roccisano (who had been a major international drug trafficker in the 1980's and deported to Italy in 2002) was arrested and charged with illegal entry into the U.S. He was reportedly affiliated with the Schirripa clan and had ties to Tough Tony Federici.
February 2014 - Operation New Bridge case targeted the Ndrangheta working with the Mexicans to smuggle cocaine to Europe and heroin to the U.S. The Ursino clan was the specific Calabrian group involved and was said to have ties to the Aquino-Coluccio clan (involved in the 2008 case), as well as the Inzerillo, Spatola-Gambino families from Sicily. Among those charged included Gambino associate Franco Lupoi and Bonanno associate Charles "Charlie Pepsi" Centaro.
March 2015 - Operation Columbus targeted Gregorio Gigliotti (an 'Ndrangheta associate who had allegedly received funding for his drug operation from Genovese captain Anthony "Rom" Romanello). Gigliotti was connected to the Alvaro clan (who in turn also had connections to the Schirripa clan mentioned above.)
Great info and you would have to think they might have some legit business interests .
Didn’t know about that Queens 2015 murder, do you know the circumstances surrounding it ?
Tough Tony is a tough one to crack
Seems to be a few more associate murders last 10 years then many assume .
Re: Cammarano et al. indictment thread
I corrected the 2015 Castellano murder earlier in this thread. It was a different guy. There were rumors the 2015 one had some kind of mob connection but I don't think anything solid ever came out. But the guy involved in the drug operation is still alive as far as I know.TommyNoto wrote: ↑Mon Dec 10, 2018 6:51 pm Great info and you would have to think they might have some legit business interests .

Re: Cammarano et al. indictment thread
interesting that it mentions the bonanno takeover of Creas club in the Bronx and that guys in this indictment were involved with that
Re: Cammarano et al. indictment thread
I belive it's the same Christopher Castellano that was murdered in 2010 that was involved in Project Reckoning, it's just his age that has been confused.
C. Delligatti's Prior Bad Acts
The Government seeks to introduce evidence of Delligatti's involvement in other bad acts, either as direct proof of the charged racketeering conspiracy and of his membership in that conspiracy, or as evidence admissible for other purposes under Rule 404(b). Specifically, it wants to introduce evidence of: 1) Delligatti's involvement in an illegal gambling operation with Genovese associate Christopher Castellano from in or about 2009 through in or about 2010; 2) Delligatti's involvement in an illegal prostitution business from in or about 2008 through in or about 2010; and 3) Delligatti's involvement in planting a bomb in a club in connection with his participation in the charged extortion conspiracy.
D. The Murder of Castellano
Finally, the Government seeks to introduce evidence to show that unidentified members of the Genovese family had Genovese associate Christopher Castellano—a former partner of Delligatti's in several illegal gambling operations— murdered on July 4, 2010 due to suspicions that he was cooperating with law enforcement.
Castellano, in exchange for being freed on bail in New York in March 2009, agreed to “sing” to U.S. prosecutors, saying that he and Schirippa bought cocaine from a source in New York for about $30,000 a kilo and then exported the drugs to Italy where Schirippa would sell them for about $50,000 per kilo. Castellano said that in about April 2008, he observed a foreign national – who later became a government informant – starting to meet with Gregorio Gigilotti, whom he learned bought $50,000 worth of cocaine. (Castellano was shot and killed on July 4, 2010, in Queens and the homicide case is yet to be solved.)
In 2008, the informant admitted to authorities he was supplying Castellano and Schirippa with cocaine while working at a legal business owned by the Genovese-connected Federicci and that Federicci was in some sort of business activity with Gigliotti. The informant said he sold three kilos of cocaine to Gigliotti, who then told him he was shipping the drugs to Italy with a commercial carrier or shipping company.

Sure. What bearing does that have on the Daily News article, or what I posted?

Pogo
Louis Civello is also a former Colombo associate (as of 1992), and with Tropiano and Civello being intertwined it's possible they left the Colombo family at the same time/for the same reason. Additionaly Ernest Montevecchi started out as an Bonanno associate, leaving for the Genovese family sometime after the late 1960s.Bonanno Family member Louis Civello extorted approximately $10,000 in protection money from a strip club in Suffolk County on Long Island on a yearly basis. Tropiano was responsible for collecting the payments
