This is a chart that was on this Forum before but had the wrong birthdate of a member and death date of another one. Had to also update where current members live as of today and what businesses they own. Sesso's added. Here is the old chart.

a rat and 3 soldier that's what remain of the Bufalino crime family.

the rat doesn't count so that makes for 3 soldiers. Are these 3 guys even active and if so who would they answer to? I would think without a boss or capo to answer to these guys would just do theyr own thing and simply not have to kick up any percentage of theyr profit to anyone: since there is no one. Right?

the youngest is 65 year old,the oldest 83 with no boss in charge, they will become legitimate and enjoy what they have accumulated over the years.

I believe they already are legitimate and not involved except for Carsia....

Like you said...he's gone legit...

Yep I would say this family is defunct.

True that.

While I agree that Big Billy D'Elia turned state's evidence...he NEVER testified against any OC figures nor did he testify in court. He gave up Louis DeNaples, who had been taking advantage of Russell Bufalino's connection for years while becoming a multi-millionaire.

A RAT in my opinion is someone who commits crimes with "friends" and then turns on them. Ex: Joey Massino, Sammy Gravano. D'Elia did what 99% of the entire membership of this forum would do...save his own ass while throwing a businessman under the bus. I'm not saying I agree with it...I'm saying it is more of a plausible explanation on why he did what he did.
