Schipani and Adonis' brother Tony were known to have been partners in several Italian restaurants, one in Brooklyn, another in Nassau County on Long Island.


Thanks for the additional info bud.

Lots of deported capos from different cities still maintained their connections to their old borgatas. Some Chicago capos like Tommy Morgano even continued to receive their cut, besides being deported to Italy.

He who can never endure the bad will never see the good
