Your info regarding the "new" era is always priceless @Chi, but Im not sure if we are confusing some details, meaning I have information from one 2014 investigative report that Daddano Jr. through his SISTER'S name Mary, acquired all kinds of contracts in different places around the Melrose Park area. Maybe we are talking about two different Mary, one being sister and other as daughter...just my two cents


TD you would know better than me you are the expert pal and all these old article and insights you post always make my day.

I know Bill Jr and his son (Bill III) are definitely not 'made guys' but they are actively kicking in today and their contracts are likely benefitting other Outfit businesses and making money for people. A lot of the Potatoes Daddono-era gangsters left million dollar businesses to their kids - I've learned through personal connections many of the kids are still paying someone today. The Outfit won't hesitate to go after kids and its happened to the kids of Ricca, Prio, Amato, Torello and others. Ironically, it was Nick Boscarino (son of Angelo mentioned above) who extorted the kids of Tony Borsellino and that case is still active today: https://casetext.com/case/boscarino-v-borsellino-in-re-borsellino
