Yea, no, Scott isn't one of those guys. He's pretty well versed in the world of LCN, and is an acclaimed researcher on the subject as well as an author. He did the Phil Leonetti book, for that reason alone there isn't much reason for one to doubt his sources. If he has access to Phil Leonetti, there's no reason why his Detroit sources would be that far off.


Scott is very good and I don't think he has ever overstated their power.

Guy has plenty of legit sources, sat down and wrote a book with Leonetti and is currently in talks with Natale for a possible book.

Don't know why anyone would lump Scott in with the BS artists.

He reported this current shift in power years and years ago before anyone else.

Having access to Leonetti means nothing, the guy's a rat, he seeks out people like Scott to make money for himself and talking to Leonetti does not mean he talks to other people still involved. Leonetti has been out of the game a long time now, what does talking to him have to do with getting info from guys involved today? The point that you guys make about the Leonetti book and that he is in talks with Natale to do a book discredits Scotts knowledge in my opinion. These are two of the biggest liars ever associated with LCN. So that leads me to believe his "sources" aren't what he makes them out to be. It's not his fault cause he's writing what they tell him, but alot of shit in Leonettis' book can't be backed up by much, only Leonettis word. Except for the trials and fed reports, alot in that book is garbage. Pussy Phil claimed they were gonna wack Bulger back in the day and the only reason he said that was to get publicity to sell his book cause it was around the time Whitey was caught. That has to be one of the most creditless things a mobster has said. I applaud Scott for trying, but i believe he's getting fed bullshit on alot of matters he's reported on.
