New Pennisi Article About Philadelphia

[Pmac2]

I wonder if that guy anthony bowat the acting underboss was welcomed back into the fold. Hes been out awhile atleast 5yrs. He was casso acting underboss. But George z and all the guys in charge today where hes guys to so.

Why the fuck would Pennisi go to wags House and abuse him like that, very fishy

Where does he say he abused him at his house?

Sorry I read it as he said it to his face, my bad too much alcohol over Christmas

[Hired_Goonz]

Personally I think that Pennisi is spending plenty of time on the internet reading about this stuff (market research as it were) and will sometimes tailor his content accordingly to give his audience what he thinks they want to hear. The Perna connection gives him license to do a lot of that when it comes to Philly and I just have a feeling that's what he did here with connecting Dom to the murders. After all if his story doesn't include that it's just some guys out for dinner and drinks and people aren't gonna keep clicking for that. I predict that once this initial burst of interest in his blog and social media dies down he will start to "remember" all kinds of stuff including tidbits about Philly that Perna supposedly told him.

Wish I knew how to contact him I'd be interested in making a Lucchese chart with him for his blog and here.

I guess try sliding into his DMs on IG? If you don't have an account I'm sure someone else here does and can point him in your direction. If he sees some of your previous work I'm sure he will agree that if you guys collaborate on a chart it will add a lot to the presentation of his blog.

I don't have an IG, I'm not ten, lol... someone contacted me with his email and I just hit him up. Worst he can do is not respond.

I really enjoy his podcast, quite honestly more so than Franzese, Gravano and John/Gene. No reason really.

Anyways, thank you for the advice! Appreciate it.
Salut.

You could try commenting on the blog post. He tends to reply to messages/comments on his blog that are either attacking him or praising him.

I like the podcast as well. I need to play catch up. I’m not a fan of Franzese or John/Gene.

I dont see anything that justifies the hysterical reaction to Pennisi in his post.
Pennisi get introduced to Philly guys through Perna (long history in Jersey), they have dinner and shoot a little shit and people react on here like he's JK Rowling. And the goss about Gongs? Speculation goes way back here about Tony Nics (and therefor possibly Baby Dom) clipping him way before 2016. And we're a forum. These guys actually know the fucking guys.

Perfectly reasonable article in my opinion.

Well said Sonny

its crazy that dom grande’s involvement in that hit back in 2012 is damn near public knowledge at this point...with journalists, message board posters, bloggers, and now multiple wiseguys from other families pointing the finger at him...yet 8 full years go by and the feds can’t prove it? also crazy that Pennisi was so circumspect and at times would refuse to meet other wiseguys, but he hears third hand about a hit in Philly. if thats true, that’s not a good look for anybody involved

He’s a liar. Not about everything. But he’s telling us what we want to hear. They call this page out by name. He didn’t tell the feds this and joe didn’t get jammed up or pressed for info? Come on cuz. Good theater. It’s what we want to hear. I’ll believe it when when both cases are brought against dom and abother one against nicks

yeah i wonder if he mentioned any of this to the feds when debriefing, and if so, maybe they still couldn't tie it together

[dack2001]

I bet Dom isn't even mentioned in his 302's. Easy to bring some third hand conversation up after you know the Feds (and the internet) have a hot nut for a guy. It's just like the jailhouse informant...ever wonder how guys charged with high profile crimes always say something incriminating to a jailhouse snitch? Pennisi shouldn't be given the time of day with this sensational crap about Dom because there is always an angle behind it, whether its keeping a fed stipend going to be available to testify, more views for some youtube bs, or settling some score from behind the computer.

IMO John Pennisi is the best voice on Cosa Nostra in the modern era. John Pennisi is the only former made man from the new era, at least after 2010. He got information all the way up to 2017. .His stories are believable. John and Gene show is absolutely unwatchable. I’ve tried but they are so inarticulate and boring it hurts. They brag about who they baseball batted and how many purses they snatched, then say "oh this is for the kids" lmao. John and Gene don't really have mob stories, they have stories every random street thug has. Stabbed this guy, robbed this place, shot this guy, dealt drugs -Alite, I was a home invader, i am the last violent Italian American in New York, present day LCN members are all pussies and non violent-Borrello.

But the difference between LCN and every other street gang is that LCN infiltrated into legitimate businesses. And John and Gene have zero stories about that, its all i was a tough guy and was involved in drugs, i am the last tough guy in Northeastern USA... That's it, not really interesting and again they are just not likable guys. John Pennisi sounds humble, he has stories about present day LCN activities, made guys and capos and he is not glorifying violence. That is why he is likeable.

Pennisi is just below sammy for entertainment value rn.

They talk about this article a little bit in the new Philly Prime Podcast. Couple of interesting things from that discussion:

- DS believes the meeting between Pennisi/ Perna and the Philly guys in 2016 was observed by law enforcement
- DS thinks the story Perna told Pennisi about Grande being involved in the Casasanto hit is inaccurate

DS and GA basically called Pennisi a BS artist that talks good, To Quote GA why would anyone believe (Pennisi) him,GA and DS say this info on Gongs murder talked was on the internet world for years before Pennisi BLOGGED it ,
