Hey Moe. Everything Kuklinski said about Demeo is BS. According to Jerry Capeci, the only time Kuklinski ever went to the Gemini Lounge was to buy a gun once. Even then he did not buy it directly through Demeo himself.

Kuklinski did not inject himself into the Demeo crew until after Murder Machine was written. He never mentioned Roy before that book came out. Most likely he read the book and added himself into the story. Since Roy is dead there is no one who can confirm anything he says. I do not think you could really even call Kuklinski a mafia associate. He was an independent scam artist who killed a few people. He knew some wiseguys but he was not in anyone's crew. This is my opinion based on what I have read and heard.
