Found this interesting seems that Bobby Manna is staying true to his oath(as late as 2003) and not giving up on the Genovese Family and the Gangster life....that’s a mans man right there, you really gotta admire a man that stays true to his principles and never changes his ways and never rats no matter what , and would rather shoot himself in the head then associate with a lowlife fucking rat!



34. Later in the conversation, PELUSO arrived. PELUSO stated that he was going to see “Barry” (Manna) the following week. PELUSO also said that his sister (Manna’s sister) had called. PELUSO also said that “that guy” was delivering a “bad message” (possibly referring to a message from MUSCARELLA) . ARDITO described what MUSCARELLA said through “Blaise” (Biagio Nicchia, MUSCARELLA’s stepson). PELUSO said that he and “Blaise” had been together, and there was no communication and that “he is not getting the right message.” PELUSO mentioned “Quiet Dom”

(DOMINICK CIRILLO, the former acting boss of the Genovese LCN Family). PELUSO related his conversation with MUSCARELLA. ARDITO responded that he “doesn’t understand Quiet Dom.” PELUSO replied that “he and Larry” (DENTICO) were always close. PELUSO said that he wanted to tell “he [CIRILLO] and Larry [DENTICO] this is what he wants, what can I do.” Again, this is believed to refer to communications from MUSCARELLA and others that pertain to the ongoing dispute regarding the Genovese LCN Family’s interests in Connecticut. PELUSO is apparently complaining that Nicchia is giving ARDITO an incorrect message from MUSCARELLA, and PELUSO related what he believes MUSCARELLA really said since PELUSO was also at the meeting.



28. ARDITO, PELUSO, and DORIS then spoke of visiting prisons. PELUSO stated that where “Bobby” (Manna, a made member of the Genovese Family whom agents believe is a high-ranking soldier serving a prison sentence) is, there is no visiting on Wednesday. PELUSO said that next Wednesday, he and John Mitchell

(lawyer for ERNEST MUSCARELLA) were going to go and visit Manna. PELUSO mentioned that “Ernie” (MUSCARELLA, a capo in the Genovese LCN Family who is on the administration panel that is now running the Genovese Family, and who recently pleaded guilty in two separate racketeering cases filed in the Eastern District of New York and in this District) and “Quiet Dom” (DOMINICK CIRILLO)

“were consulted on this.” MUSCARELLA reportedly stated that “he”

(Manna) knows “where the money is.” DORIS stated that “this is the innocent guy.” Again, in this conversation, ARDITO, PELUSO and DORIS discussed a visit by PELUSO and another attorney to Bobby Manna, who is in prison, to discuss an issue with him. MUSCARELLA and CIRILLO had been consulted.


ARDITO then mentioned that PELUSO had gone to see “Bobby Manna” (a high-ranking member in the Genovese LeN Family) in the “pen” (prison). ARDITO also stated that “they know all about Buster taking care of it. They know all about that. CUI) I’m gonna go” (referring to his belief that he was going to be arrested shortly).
The participants then discussed money owed by PALADINO to Joe LNU (the same individual on the phone with ARDITO and the owner of Mario’s the prior week). ARDITO reported that PALADINO said that he only owed the “guy” a few dollars. ARDITO said that PALADINO “even paid him for the godfather” (referring to the payment made to Vito DiSalvo for arranging the loan). ARDITO said that they were “going to make a shylock out of him.”

Manna spent 5 years in prison on this contempt charge (clipping from a 1977 newspaper.) This contempt charge later becomes a relevant point regarding his highly questionable 1988 gambling charge and conviction which prevented him from getting parole.

Great info Lisa

Please don’t derail the thread by spamming your articles and pimping out your website

Well I actually think the article I posted is quite relevant to your statement preceding that amazing 'article" you posted. You did write that yourself, correct? Not a copy and paste job, right?

What are you doing here? Don’t you have Batman and scooby doo shows to watch..

Wow. I don't know if I should be flattered or scared that you would actually search me out and reference information from a bio for an entertainment site I used to write for. Kind of borders on sick obsession. But I do hope you enjoyed my TV show reviews.

Have no interest in writing articles nor doing “exposes” I’m a researcher who one day hopes to back a book financially being done by Massino, Colabro, Billy D’elia or Carmine Sessa...not a writer, not a fake and not a pretender...I stay in my lane...try it sometime...
