Why did the KC family die out?

Same as many of the other families - attrition and prosecutions.

Haha.. "Guilty as Charged"

Bossism...i like surealism. dadaism...not onto bossism to be fair

Mr. Frank LaRocca was a close friend of our family and he was a good man who was just taking care of his family. His wholesale grocery business thrived while he was alive. After he passed away, in 1976, his sons and grandsons kept it going for as long as they could; however, in the later years of the 20th century things started going downhill. They finally closed up shop and liquidated everything after 2000.

KC and ChiTown were the quintessential "Boss" politic cities' I think the Daley machine was the only old time holdover left...

Paul Scola was Sam Scola's son.

John Sciortino was the god son to Tony Civella and was a captain at the time of Tonys last prison stretch. After Cammisano's death in 95, and Simone's incarseration, Sciortino was made street boss. He was Civella's hand picked successor with a long history in the family.

He was a good guy, his place was located by Sebbeto's right? Close to LaSals deli.

joey is sciortino still involved and is pete simone?

from what i have read they are both still involved but they were not inclued in that gambling bust in 2010 so i was wondering

here is a couple of interesting articles ones about the murder of john standa a robber killed by the mob in 1990 the other is about the cammensarios and how they killed two guys in the 80s. first link is the cammensarios

i never realized the cammansiors the son aswell and the kanas city mob as a whole was so violent in the 70s and 80s

I've read Peter ribaste is one of the main guys of what's left of the Kansas mob these days

yearh i read he is a big player. There is not much left to be honest half of the guys are retired but that still leaves over 10made guys active. I read Peter Simone is still active and willy cammensarios kid is the biggest guy on the streets.

i dont know if scoritino is still active he is what 73 74 but you never know for alot of these guys its all they know

the latest indictment showed large gambling operations and a average sized fence that is prob whats left i have heard they are quite close.

Nicky civella he was found with a gun and meth and the other civella vinny he got done for gambling and the sanson brothers nick civellas grand kids they all got time aswell

The March 2010 indictment (following raids in 2009) involved a bookmaking operation that involved 10 people and handled $3.6 million in bets over 3 years. I suppose "large" is relative but I'm not sure it applies here.

Of course, during the 2009 raids, Jimmy DiCapo was found with over $400,000 in counterfeit merchandise (purses, wallets, shoes, sunglasses, hats, t-shirts, etc.)

There's also been cases after that. In June 2011, KC soldier Vincent Pisciotta and associate Mark Sorrentino were indicted for their part in the Herford House arson job. In February 2014, Anthony Civella Jr pleaded guilty to bank larceny and money laundering involving the theft of over $330,000 from a bank while his company (C Management Group LLC) serviced it's ATM machines.

Clearly....they just can't help themselves

how strong would you say the kanas city mob is?

Apparently not strong enough to even be recognized by the FBI or mob experts anymore.

Johnny Joe is semi retired, what little activity is left is controlled by Simone. The titles of boss and underboss are still used but it is more for ceremonial and respect purposes than anything. Larry Strada owned a bar and was a bookie for the mob, he was not a robber. He was killed for giving testimony before the grand jury which led to the conviction of John Mandacina, Sutera and Eddie Searing for running a gambling operation. This also eventually connected to the arrest and conviction of Pete Simone and Jimmy Moretina and Be Amused Vending. Mandacina was convicted of having Strada killed using a Robber, name McGuire as the hitter. Johnny Joe and Simone were unindicted coconspiritors in that case.

Wille Cammisano and Willie Cammisano Jr. were feared in this city for their ruthlessness and willing to kill. Jr is suspected in at least 4 murders but probably many more.

Not really, what's left still revolves around the Civella's and Cammisanos.

The Sansone brothers are the grandsons of Tony Civella. Nick Civella did not have any kids.

There is a few guys involved in this and that, but they no longer are a viable and structured family and I am not sure they want to be.

how involved are the sansone brothers?

i know you said it is not structured but do all those guys kick up to peter simone

some of those guys in the indicment aswell were middle age have they recruited anyone last ten years?

how involved is vinny civella?

is nick civella involved in drugs they arrested him when they found him with a gun and meth

Nicky is for lack of a better word a fuck up, he is a never will be.

Why would anyone that lives in Kansas City with the last name Civella do any illegal activity.You know with that name they gotta be living under a microscope.As always I enjoy and appreciate Joey Dice and his solid input on all things Kansas City

Yer Joey Dice is well on the ball when it comes to kansas
