NELCN - Jackie Salemme & Jimmy Martorano

[NEUnderground]

Hello New England area posters - Jackie Salemme’s death reminds me of the unique position he and Jimmy Martorano are/were in as two made guys who didn’t flip, each with a brother who did. Does anyone know if Salemme or Martorano had anything to do with OC after they got out of prison in the early 00’s? Did either lose their standing over Frank Sr and John M cooperating? I remember at Jerry Angiulo’s wake in ‘09 seeing Jackie and Peter Limone hugging each other and laughing together, so assumed he was still alright with the rest of those guys (CD, Spucky, etc). As for Jimmy M, I figured he was shelved/pulled down a long time ago for publicly supporting his brother and being seen out with him.

Anyone know any different? All input appreciated!

Always wondered this as well. Maybe we get lucky at TJ sees this and replies.

Idk about Jackie Salemme, but Jimmy Martorano was still seen as respected and had a big book going at one point. Also pretty sure Joey Y was working with Jimmy with some sports and loans. I know Jimmy and Pat Nee used to hang out in Southie a bit. Jimmy is/was listed as a capo but I don't know anything about a crew operating under him. I believe Jimmy is the only Winter Hill guy who got made, so he had a huge network. I believe he's also done some business in Jersey and has met with Gambino guys since his brother flipped. Not sure what he's up to these days. Pretty sure Johnny moved to South FL.
I mean look at guys like Mickey Paradiso, Frank Coppa Jr, Fish Carfaro's son, etc who were still around and involved after family members flipped.

Thanks for an interesting comment Jake and wasn't Jimmy Martorano made into the Mafia by Frank Salemme? also the project marino website claims that Jackie Salemme was an informant. Here is the relevant link https://projectmarino1996.wordpress.com ... s/salemme/ however I recognize this source might be not be the best on this topic.
