What? Catena was long retired and out of the leadership for years (decades really) by the time Muscarella became acting boss in the late 1990s/early 2000s. There were several guys (Lombardo, Gigante, Salerno, Bellomo, Cirillo) in the boss or acting boss positions before Muscarella
Yeah, was going to say same. Catena was out of leadership by early 1980s and full time in Florida. He was still consulted on odds and ends for a couple more years, but in an unofficial capacity. He was totally out for quite a while by the time of his death in 2000.
That's really interesting - were those 'odds and ends' related to Genovese business or did he own any rackets in Florida?

Good read. Campi seems like a straight shooter. It’s nice to have more relatively recent detail regarding the Genovese.

I'll bet just about anything that ALL of Nadus sources are someone in or close to someone in LE.

I’ve only posted a couple times,

Scott- I have to be honest, I feel that a lot of your content is fan fiction. But in this situation I think you made Nadu look foolish. Is he right about Ernie? Now one really knows we can only assume he’s wrong. And his reasoning behind it was completely off base, putting words in Campi’s mouth and saying you’ve never been to New York. And did anyone catch Jeff admitting that he’s never been to NY right after that? Anyway back to my hole,

No way Nadu has better sources then you. All of Nadus source are in LE. That's why he is always able to get a relative unknown informant to speak.

Moose ,

I appreciate the feedback, sincerely. And for having my back on the Nadu stuff .

What stories do you feel are made up or exaggerated? How could those stories be reported and you feel more comfortable veracity wise?

Does anyone remember how Pizzaboy would constantly say how Barney wasn’t the real boss, and then when Capeci confirmed it PB was like “I was trying to protect Barney” or some bullshit like that?

Would be hilarious if Pizzaboy or Lenehan/Picasso were Nadu’s sources.

Everytime Nadu exits his house, Area 51 is notified.
