I remember when the old man Turra was killed, I think they blew one of his eyes out. It's crazy, so many people wanted to kill Merlino, and the worst he got was a bullet in the ass.

I think Joey has 10 lives.They[John John and Colletti had Merlino dead to rights one night,he was basically passed out in his car under the B.Franklin Bridge around 2nd and Front after a night of partying and supposetley Colletti bailed out ,said he got spooked or something,Merlino would have never knew what hit him.

From what i remember of Colletti he was a desperate plumber never really a gangster but got tied up in it and John John was a glorified junkie and theif. not really tough but crazy and i actually know a few guys that lumped him up even after he was a made member. Now his brother Billy was one tough guy. He fought with his hands the biggest and badest guys but i do remember one night that a south paw probably the same size as him gave him a beatin around the park at 18th a johnson and he came back with agun and shot him in the stomach so thats what the guys brother told me, and i had arlready heard that on the street.

Colleti (from what ive read) was a very successful plumber and thus didnt need to be a mobster but obcourse was seduced by that lifestyle.

As for John Veasey, I remember what Anastasia and the FBI said about him "John Veasey was a South Philly toughguy through and through". He gave out beatings and also took some but was generally considered a psycho by everybody.

From all the rumors i heard the guy he roughed up was the bookie and might have been connected but he was in a legitimate cash checking business with this guy and the guy was riding him like making him pay for gas on the truck and taking deductions out of his pay for expenses and Billy didnt like it. But again i say this is just street talk

Truth be told joe turned down the title of boss when stanfa got pinched before he went away for life. joe thought it was a unwise to be the boss during that time the Feds were bring two more cases and the rats were every where his exact words were its great if you want a life sentence. He was going to take care of merlino he just ran out of time and got set up.i often here these stories about what was about.honestly merlino could not make money let alone count it if you gave the keys to fed reserve.scoops another lost cause if you look at it the ones who got killed were the only ones who made any money otherwise no one wanted anything from them.the fact that they made the series on hbo a number of books the history of work done by his crew has yet to be written....

The ones that are making money are on the fringes of the organization.They can ween their way into social circles of wealthier prominent people.

That's a good deal. He's already served a year, so he can be paroled in 3.5 more.

Mob figure pleads guilty to racketeering
By Robert Moran
INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
August 2, 2012

A Philadelphia mobster pleaded guilty Thursday in federal court to racketeering involving extortion and illegal gambling, officials said.

Gaeton Lucibello, 59, of Philadelphia, admitted to U.S. District Judge Eduardo C. Robreno that he, as a member of the Philadelphia La Cosa Nostra family, helped to shake down a bookmaker for a "street tax." He also admitted operating two illegal video poker machines.

Lucibello is scheduled for sentencing on Nov. 26. He faces a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison.

He was one of 14 mafia members and associates charged with crimes including loan sharking, witness tampering, extortion, illegal gambling, and theft from an employee benefit plan.

The others charged are family boss Joseph Ligambi, underboss Joseph Massimino, George Borgesi, Martin Angelina, Anthony Staino Jr., Damion Canalichio, Louis Barretta, Gary Battaglini, Robert Verrecchia, Eric Esposito, Robert Ranieri, Joseph Licata, and Louis Fazzini.

Ligambi, Massimino, Borgesi, Angelina, Staino, Jr., Canalichio, Barretta, Battaglini, Licata, and Fazzini are scheduled for trial in October.

A trial date for the others has not been set.

Was Lucibello's deal the one that the judge was worried about the "sentence discrepancy"?
