Thanks NYMafia, I thought if anyone knows it would be you. Did the cherry hill Gambinos have anything to do with the pizza connection guys or were they completely separate operations? Sicilian families? "The Pizza Connection" case, and the indicted defendants who later stood trial in that case, were, almost to a man, Sicilian-born and affiliated with the Bonanno Family and their Sicilian-based affiliates. But there were a few others such as the DeCavalcante Family's Frank Polizzi and a few mafiosi from the midwest also involved. But what I can also say with certainty is that many of those very same defendants operated from Brooklyn, along Knickerbocker Avenue, and metro NYC, and were on extremely friendly terms, if "compare," with their Sicilian-born Gambino Family counterparts from 18th Avenue in Brooklyn. So I'd absolutely bet my bottom dollar that at one time or another, either here or back in Sicily, they cooperated, if not worked together, on occasion.
