R.I.P. Scarfo

Nicodemo Scarfo Youngest son Mark has passed away less then 48 hrs. ago.He was on partial life support from an attempted suicide back in the 80s

R.I.P

Wow that is crazy I just read Leonetti's book and they said the day he tried hanging himself they adjourned everyone for the day and Scarfo Sr. showed no emotion and went as far as saying he couldn't be seen around the Scarfo compound once he was okay.(which he never was)

I feel bad for the kid, he did nothing wrong to have a demented father like that, I truly hope he is in a better place.

La : This is true, and a dam shame "

And to make things worse there is one male that is not incarcerated his half brother Chris.
Mark was very well liked and did not want anything to do with that life, how ironic just like Chris.

Poor guy. An innocent casualty of his father's life of crime and violence. Forever young. RIP.

R.I.P. Mark

Damn,the life is a shit,he was in coma from the 1988,and never woke up and his fucked father can even live until 100 years

glad he's dead

What a shame. A shame he didn't get it right the first time.

Oh well..

Shame, no way to go

Strange thing to say about his son.

Rip.

Technically since scarfo sr. Probably get to go to the wake since he not doing life and the brother. What if crazy Phil is there. Serp keep us posted. St will shank his nephew once and for all. Crazy family reunion at the funeral home. He probably hasn't seen him since he was 17 its weird you age in a coma. Just saying I might have pulled the plug on my brother a lil earlier. Dr jack k was a good man.

Wow what a shame for him. A life lost due to the life that he wanted no parts of. Scarfo was a sick gangster through and through. He put the life before everything. Followed the code in every way. But destroyed so many lives in the process.

Rip brother

Pmac, what the hell are you rambling on about?

Sad news for an innocent kid who couldn't deal with the shame his disgrace of a father brought on him. That being said, I'll bet this has happened in similar fashion before. I know that two of Henry Tameleos sons died via suicide after he died in prison after being framed for the Teddy Deegan hit in Boston. He was exonerated with Peter Limone years later. These are the victims you never hear about, collateral damage in a way.

Speaks volumes about 'the code' itself.

Such an awkward thread...... Back to True Detective on Netflix for me...

I'm just saying scarfo the dad and Jr can ask the Marshal's to bring them to the kids wake. And I'm betting Phil goes. The FBI mite arrange a private viewing or just say hes a high risk. But the guy should be able to say goodbye I don't believe the stuff Phil said. Nobody knows what was going threw his head when he tried to kill himself its mental illness. In the 1 picture of the kid I seen he smilling on the beach with his dad and the philly mob.

Very good point. Reminds me of a good article about the Deegan case and how it affected Louis Grecos family

Sad. Reminds me of Craig DePalma, although Craig actually got shoved into the life by his father before trying to hang himself in jail. Lingered in a coma for more than seven years before dying. Poor, poor Craig .

The sad truth is, some of these guys don't even give a shit about their own kids. Not all of them, mind you. But enough of them to give you an idea of what some of them are capable of (or incapable of, like loving their kids above money and their own self-importance).

Why? What makes you hate him? Remember, it's not his dad who died, it's an innocent person.


I don't get it how they weren't afraid of bullying to suicide the son of somebody like Nicky Scarfo. He whacked people for much less "disrespect".

The kid couldn't help who his father was.

He wasn't a turd off the tree like Junior Gotti or Junior Cutolo.

I didn't say I hated him, did I? Couldn't give a shit care less either way about people I don't know. Dead, alive, who the hell cares? Not me.

A sweetheart of a woman aren't you.

Yes she is my favorite line is whens he says to you " Oh Bless your heart" That guy five felonies on the other hand is a DUMMY!

Very misleading title lol

Yeah, because we should all say RIP to this guy, who for what it's worth...where's the link? Do you know he died for sure? And do you honestly care? I may not be the sweetest heart but at least I'm honest... however, I do pity people that try and kill themselves and aren't successful.

Totally agree. It just proves that they're incompetent at one more thing, which is probably the reason they're offing themslves in the first place.

Nicky Scarfo's kids: Nicky Jr, this one (Mark), a daughter, and ________ . I think Phil Leonetti mentions him in his book. Maybe a Chris or something like that? Ring a bell anyone?

Yes it is Chris he is not involved in the life at all. Was not aware he had a daughter.

He may not. I'm going 100% off unsubstantiated memory.

Oldest is Chris(not in the life) Nicky jr.middle(is in it and locked up)Mark the youngest (and has just recently passed)
no females

they say there is a thin line between homicidal and suicidal tendencies.. if he really was trying to commit suicide then he could have had manic depression. was he being bullied? proof of this anyone?

pap :Not his hole life ,he was a happy kid .Then all the stress and school stuff went down then, Yes he showed all the signs," that we all know now. But back then you were told suck it up...

That happened to Greg Depalma kid too because of a sucide attempt ?

Yes. Craig lingered in a coma for about seven years before passing away.

What did he do pill overdose?

DePalma's kid tried hanging himself in Jail after flipping.

Yeah it was a failed suicide in jail , he was in a coma for 8 years and was transferred to a nursing home which Greg depalma turned into a mob meeting place to discuss mob business

Why are people celebrating his death? It's his father and grandfather that deserved to die that way

Thanks for the info boys.

your right that poor kid grew up in a real bad situation.. Believe it or not he should of joined the airforce or navy for like 10 years that was probally the only way out for him... or move to Alaska,montana ect.. or finally just kill your self.. little nicky should be in the worst prison

I wasn't aware he flipped, thought the prison sentence was tough for him and made him crack thanks for update

Thanks Streetboss we herd ...

I'm sorry but I just skimmed this thread and this has me dying Lao
