Pennisi’s experience within the family certainly differed compared to that of those within the Bronx faction.Pennisi heard enough about Vic which resulted in our perception of him being cleared up but Pennisi also stated that he never heard one word even being uttered about Tony Ducks. I presume that this would have been had he been in the Bronx Faction. He doesn’t know to much about the Bronx faction but has had some interaction with some of their members.johnny_scootch wrote: ↑Wed May 28, 2025 7:31 pmYeah absolutely not arguing that but just trying to make people understand that here on the forum everything is black and white and we have lists and documents to refer to but on the street it’s gray a lot especially if you’re not fully in the know (made). You interpret from what you see and what you hear and it could be easy to think or misinterpret as it is in this case that this one guy who is revered on the streets from the Bronx to Brooklyn like he’s Mickey Mantle, carries himself like a boss and gets treated like one probably is the boss. Yet turns out this other guy who hasn’t been seen in Brooklyn for 30 years actually is.
I think that it’s likely that all within the Lucchese family would know that Vic is the boss. It would have been mentioned in the Bronx I believe.
