ENGLAND MAFIA LOSES ANOTHER ANCHOR, BELOVED ‘CHIPPY’ SCIVOLA BITES THE DUST AT 76
Scott Burnstein

Colorful New England mobster Alfred (Chippy) Scivola, a highly-respected mafia elder statesman on the east coast, died of natural causes this week, three years removed from his release from a three-year federal prison term he served for racketeering. The popular 76-year old Scivola was based out of Providence, Rhode Island and allegedly got inducted into the Patriarca crime family in 1996. He is the third member of the New England mafia to pass away since the spring and was known in the local underworld as a true character.



In 2011, Scivola was convicted alongside former Patriarca clan boss Luigi (Baby Shacks) Manocchio and one-time acting boss Anthony (The Little Cheese) DiNunzio for shaking down four Providence area topless bars (the Cadillac Lounge, the Satin Doll, the Foxy Lady and Club Desire) for street taxes ranging in the seven figures.

Manocchio, 90, is retired from the rackets – he did five years on the charges. DiNunzio, the 58-year old younger brother of reputed new don Carmen (The Big Cheese) DiNunzio, is scheduled for release from prison next winter.

The elder DiNunzio’s predecessor in the don’s seat, Pete Limone, succumbed to a bout with cancer last month at 83. The DiNunzio brothers hail from Boston, as did Limone. Longtime Boston button man Ralph (Ralphie Chong) Lamanttina died of old age in April – he was 94.

Back in 2005, Scivola was incarcerated for two years on similar charges stemming from his shaking down of Stamford, Connecticut strip clubs. That indictment reported a meeting in Connecticut between Scivola and a New York mob underboss Anthony (Tony the Genius) Megale of the Gambino crime family in 2002, regarding the Patriarcas’ extortion of Fairfield, Connecticut strip-club owner and Gambino associate Harold (Oil Can Harry) Farrington. Megale claimed “ownership” of Farrington and his businesses and paid Scivola a “settlement fee” to give to Manocchio for the Patriarcas to back-off of any further extortion efforts, per court filings. Megale died of cancer in the summer of 2015.

Scivola rose through the ranks of the east coast mafia as part of the infamous Acorn Social Club crew in Providence’s Federal Hill neighborhood (Rhode Island’s Little Italy) in the 1970s and 80s. According to federal surveillance reports and court records, Scivola was gangland running buddies with Edward (Little Eddie) Lato and Frank (Bobo) Marrapese as the threesome made their way up the syndicate’s pecking order and gained considerable esteem in area mob circles in the process

In October 1981, Scivola and Marrapese were busted for receiving a load of stolen La-Z-Boy recliner chairs and then in 2002, Scivola and his son were pinched for selling “hot” Reebok-brand sneakers. Lato and Marrapese pled guilty with Scivola in 2011 to extortion charges and are both currently behind bars.

I never know he was part of the acorn club. That club has history and boy that club has has some serious fucking guts run it. Yea with that new info I know besides his family ties and what not that he was the real deal he was from acorn that's a big thing

Respect was paid last night-packed.....they buried him this morning. He was NO joke.

Busted with a load of La-Z-Boys! Good stuff. Thanks for the news.

Did Scivola ever rise to the rank of Capo? From what i remember was he made in thAt recorded making ceremony in 89 or do I have him mixed up w someone else?

Curious to know more about him

On a slightly unrelated note- but does anyone have an accurate chart or crew breakdown of the New England LCN? I know the admin, but who are the skippers , soldiers and from where? (Furio youre good people but for fucks sake please dont post wiki info or mafia wiki for that matter)

According to Scott B. he was made by Manocchio in 1996.

Do any of you really know anything my word I think you people just right things to feel important

NE, buddy, no disrespect intended here. But considering that this is a chatroom about a 'secret' society more or less, most of what is opined on here is conjecture, speculation. You appear to have more knowledge. Rather than insult, how about correct people with what you believe to be true?

..Learning how to spell & use the correct wording could be a good start..

Hi Sorry about the bad spelling i can admit when i make a mistake. All i can say is that chip was a nice man. I really am not going to write anything about what i know on here. The only thing is that people should write what they know to be true.

Projo reported when he plead guilty to the last shakedown scam the feds had a opening allocation or watever its called. Chippy had to admit to being a made member since 1996 with that guy leto. They were inducted by baby shacks. Pretty comin today members admitting there rank for plea bargains. The genovese have had powerfull capos admit. Think ray jr was a Pioneer in the boss plea bargain shit as he was probaly the first sitting boss to cope out to a rico plea and smart he was cause he did like 8 yrs and been good ever since.

Ok first Jr did not admit that he was a boss or anything else like that the government was trying to give him 68 years but judge wolf would not do it because the government said that ajar was not in control of what was going on so how could he be held for what other people did who ever admits they are a made guy should not be allowed to be able to even sit at a table in prison I will say no more
