Dude if you believe this.

There hasn't been ONE, ONE five family murder of a made guy in 20 years and the Luke's are going to clip 8, EIGHT.... EIGHT!!!!! Guys, in one clip?!
And they're Captains, acting bosses....
dude you are absolutely kidding.

The whole fucking admin plus capos plus soldiers got indicted for JUST meldish, and they're going to clip 8 made guys with people in positions.

8 guys getting clipped. AB, UB, Capos . Ok.
If Madonna did not step down, how would have the Brooklyn faction responded? Pennisi seems truthful to me.Highly reliable source.It does seem insane but the Brooklyn faction almost murdered Pennisi in 2018

But the man never touched not even 100K, was ordered by the administration at the time to assault some guy but couldn’t do that & someone else had to do it, and the reason he got made was one of the dumbest ways i’ve seen. They didn’t know if he was reliable, or an earner. All they knew is this guy killed someone over some booty in 1990.
What was dumb about it? He was a guy that did 18 years in prison and he was childhood friends with the bosses son in law plus a bunch of other made guys that he knew from his neighbourhood. A lot of guys get straightened out for similar reasons. It wasn't unusual.
Its stupid, no wonder the mob declined.

Nothing is more credible in the mob then spending time in prison with other members. You had no idea what he was going to be like when he got out. It's like if you own a company and you hire someone that looks good on paper, but they turn out to be a douche...like Pennisi. Even if Pennisi didn't rat he wouldn't last.

I agree Pennisi didn't have the body of work behind him to warrant getting straightened out but stupider things have happened. He did a bunch of time he knew the right people and that situation with the Genovese family put him on the fast track.

One thing people don't mention often is how much the Lucchese family valued his extensive connections with the Gambinos, fittingly he became the point man between the 2 families after being made.

I'm remembering a post where someone laid out the 3 categories of mafioso; Killers, earners and politicians.

It's clear which category Pennisi fit into.

Just a couple of made men who have been murdered in the last 20 years.

Lawrence Ricci (Genovese) - Found in the trunk of a car November 30th, 2005

Anthony Zizzo - (Chicago - I know you said 5 families but this is another within the last 20 years)

Frank Lagano- (Lucchese) April 2007

Anthony Seccafico- (Bonnano) July 2009

Technically you could include Cali although he obviously was murdered by a lunatic which wasn’t mob related.

There are also some examples of associates of the 5 families who were murdered in the last 10 years that were related to OC like Meldish, Vincent Zito, etc.

I actually agree with your point that they were whacking the entire Bronx faction but you’re just a little loose with the facts.

Appreciate the assist guys, but we don't need a rundown of the 3/4 made guys actually clipped this century ;)
It was to illustrate a point.

All 5 families and now chicago too only clipped 4 guys in the last 20 years and all buttons. And the Luke's are going to clip 8 guys including capos and UB's in one sitting.

Okeydokey.

Hope I got the phrasing right ya girls ;).

@new always the king dude. Ive always had a sub conscious niggle about all these guys telling BJ to f off. Baudanza just refusing to come in and ignoring BJ and the result... he was transferred?? GTFOH. Soldiers dont feel/rejecting/ignoring/fuck off to their captains, and nothing happens to the soldier BUT ALSO THE CAPTAIN (Kept in place?!?), never sat right, think its bullshit. Multiple guys tell a captain to go walk? Unheard of. Multiple guys tell a captain to walk and no consequences? UNheard of. Multiple guys tell a Captain to walk and no consequences and the captain keeps his stripes? Bull, shit.

Salute bro. That's a good point too - if so many guys refuse to be in his crew, why keep him on as a Captain? Also it's kind of funny that it happened on a smaller scale to Carmine Avellino, with DeSantis writing a letter basically saying he's not going to be a part of that crew anymore. Maybe DeSantis can get the benefit of the doubt and if he was on supervised release or trying to be careful, he didn't want to risk meeting with people to talk about it - but the "resignation letter" is funny

I'm going to double back to some threads here to get more info, because I forget what happened with Big John and the crew, around the time near the indictment. IIRC they gave Delloruso a captain position for new crew, and then he became Underboss after the admin changed over. I don't recall if Big John was taken down because of the indictment too

Not sure if Bluhouse has some more details (I'm definitely interested if so) but I believe Pennisi mentioned himself in one of his vids that there was suspicion he was feeding info to the Gambinos, something to do with a sitdown that the Lucchese's lost...

Speaking of, a lot of Pennisi's mention of sitdowns on his videos, outside of like 1-2 that I can recall, seemed to be about pretty pennyante things. Not saying that to say the mob isn't serious, it's fallen off, etc. - just that it would be fucking exhausting having to drive around NYC all day meeting with people about bullshit problems and basically being on call 24/7

Your exact quote was “ There hasn't been ONE, ONE five family murder of a made guy in 20 years and the Luke's are going to clip 8, EIGHT.... EIGHT!!!!! Guys, in one clip?!

8 guys getting clipped. AB, UB, Capos . Ok.”

So now you want it both ways? You capitalized and repeated that there wasn’t one made guy from the 5 families murdered in the last 20 years. Now it’s just to illustrate a point. Got it Sally Black.

Scott B came on to defend himself for a couple of seconds a few weeks ago. He took off pretty quickly but one thing he said stood out. He said “the Bonnanos are now a non violent organization?”
We lll sorta…there has been one murder in 24 years and none in the last 20. There is more killers at the knights of columbus at this point.

He was the best guy arounnnnnd….What murdaaaaaaa?
