He was a guy who brought big envelopes to guys like Stanfa, Natale and Merlino. I think they saw him as a mark. Unfortunately for Stanfa, Natale and Merlino, Previte played them worse then they played him.

But made? I don't think so. Capo? Hell no.


Tell you what, the guy was and is disgusting ,but got to give it to him ,some of these guys obviously paid him.

Also i do not know if they did not put anyone with him ,but he was always traveling alone.He would not of lasted long doing that .This guy was pushing some buttons.

And i think you and many Philly guys,and Philly posters do not think he had his button..

Cackling like a banty Rooster.
