The mob is very anti murder these days. Like johney sack said in the sopranos its like thier turning into the UN. Feel like i could rob frank cali’s house and the mob would just say to return the money. Their more run like a business. Also didnt rudolph izzi get clipped for shooting a gambino associate? Corrent me if im wrong

refused to take a plea deal got Larry Richi killed?

That and he was suppsedly mouthing off about the Genovese family moving in on Philly (he may have even been involved in the aborted plot with Pete Caprio in 2000).

Pogo I wonder if Larry Ricchi getting hit for mouthing off about Genovese moving in on Philly was a favor to the Philly Family/Ligambi, or if it was strictly directed at the behest of the Genovese Family?

[PHL_Mob]

For example, Ligambi going to the Genovese saying your guy is saying this and that and was even conspiring with Caprio and some of the Newark guys about moving in on us and Philly so can you handle your guy in any way that you see fit so that we/Philly don't have to worry about it/him.

I heard that ricci was killed because info about the genovese family’s affairs were going to be revealed had he gone to trial. The prosecutors could’ve brought up the conspiracy against philly and the genovese family decided that killing him would be a good idea since ricci didnt wanna take the plea deal. Just speculation tho

Yeah, he was acting captain at one point. The irony is Ricci was later acquitted anyway. But it may have been a matter of the family not wanting a made guy sitting next to ILA officials at the defense table.

The mob is very anti murder these days. Like johney sack said in the sopranos its like thier turning into the UN.

I think it's fair to say that, compared to the past, they're much more careful and reserved about when resorting to murder. They don't have the luxury of dropping bodies right and left like they once did. But, as we can see, mob murders haven't totally gone away like some seem to believe. Probably a lot of people are under that impression because the guys getting killed aren't typically high profile names.

From what I can remember top of my head he either whacked or tried to whack a DeCicco nephew or cousin or something and that's why Rudy was whacked.

Really interested in the Rocco maniscalco hit... no one really has ever fully pinned it on Philly members. I just remembered he made book and some loans and some north philly drug dealers were taking shots at his book and not paying and he was pressing them and they basically told him they're not paying and threatened him back. Then you have people saying that borgesi was leaning on him from prison to kick up.. whatever the situation was I'm sure Rocco knew to an extent of who was gunning for him cause he was not leaving the house without a vest for months until his wife said the weather warmed up and he was sick of wearing it and concealing it under a hoodie or jacket (eventhough you can spot a vest under a hoodie from a mile away). Anyways soon after he stopped wearing the vest he got hit.... I've always figured it was Lcn related for sure... but does anyone know who might have ordered it or participated in the hit??
