I think it was mentioned a few times that Carmine Persico represented himself - and pretty well - at trial. Does anyone know of any footage or pictures of him at trial?
I'm pretty sure there's no footage of the trial. I heard different i think i read somewhere Carmine did a terrible job of defending himself .
Darnit! People keep feeding me bad information! That's why I come to the board! Thanks Camarel!

One thing I never understood,, and have heard a lot through wire taps or what rats say,, is how so many made men and even captains are "brokesters". How can you be a captain and have a full crew underneath you making money and kicking it up to you and you're still broke? Is it all from gambling problems,living beyond their means.ect? Fuck I would just assume that if you were in the life for let's say 30 years all of the while doing illegal shit to make money that you would be sitting on a decent amount of cash and invest it in something that will continue to make you money, a sportsbook, loanshark operation, legit business.. Anything

I read a thread on here about the Gravano court transcript and someone was nice enough to give a link to the Deleonardo court transcript. Does anyone have any others?? I found the Bull and especially the Deleonardo one amazing and would love to read more, but haven't had much success and im having a hard time finding some. Thanks in advance!
