Thanks. Any idea where he was shoot in South Jersey. He wasn't the guy in a Collingswood Diner was he?
Nevermind. That was Sollena

If Scarfo can kill Salvy he can kill anybody.

For those who didn't get the reference this was what George Anastasia always says when discussing the Salvy Testa hit. :mrgreen:

he says so many things over and over its borderline strange

George lost a lot of respect from me (not that he gives two fucks about my respect) when he did the alite thing. He should have stayed away from that whole jr bitchuation. Don't get me wrong.... He's done a lot of stuff I have loved over the years but the alite thing was a bad look for him on many levels.

He probably had a financial incentive to write, he and Cipriano's big trial site was self funded for a bit.

Colombo was shot in Audubon, NJ. Sal Sollena was a Collingswood diner I believe on rt. 130/white horse pike. Riccobene was Brooklawn diner on rt. 130 at the circle. DiGiacomo I haven't heard a location. I live in South Jersey in the general area of all three of these so I was curious if DiGiacomo was in the same area.

Copy.

November 29, 1992 – Philly mob associate and Stanfa loyalist Francesco DiGiacomo is killed, shot to death behind the wheel of his car in New Jersey.

So this is inaccurate? Was wondering why I couldn't find anything locally on it.

Roger, thanks. I actually already own that book and read it a few years ago. The name never stood out to me. I went back and reread that page.
