Bobby Manna: Still Alive At 95; He'll Be Back In New Jersey Soon
Gang Land Exclusive! Louis MannaThe oldest federal prison inmate in the United States is 95 years old, has 36 years behind bars under his belt, and is dying of cancer. This past September, he suffered a stroke and landed inside a 24-hour prison hospital "Full Watch" room, where the feds wanted him to die.

But former Genovese consigliere Louis (Bobby) Manna will return to New Jersey soon, as early as tomorrow, to live with flesh and blood family members, Gang Land has learned. The wiseguy stands alone as the oldest of the 155,979 inmates currently housed by the federal Bureau of Prisons.

Manna, sentenced to 80 years for the storied 1987 murder of mob-linked millionaire businessman Irwin (The Fatman) Schiff as he dined in an Upper East Side restaurant, and for plotting to kill Gambino boss John Gotti and his brother Gene, received the good news last week. It came five months after several social media reports had wrongly given the sickly goodfellow his last rites.
