I think its funny just because someone says they know somebody connected in real life that on the internet it is automatically false because HOW COULD SOMEONE EVER KNOW ANYBODY CONNECTED?...I DIDNT KNOW WISEGUYS COMMUNICATED WITH THE OUTSIDE WORLD. Yes, some of us know connected or semi connected people such as relatives, why is that hard to wrap for people to wrap their heads around? Some of us have photos no one else would ever have, which is already a good enough indication.

Thanks

I would not call Gotti dumb. I think he just made very poor decisions to the detriment of many.

Pimp did the cat get your tongue ?

PMack check your P.M.

I checked it was blank then I triend to reply I couldn't figure out how to send it to the person. fuck it. I wrote shit then it says all fields not filled. anyhow persicos playing with fire being like bill belichick to the godell and the nfl except he isn't gonna get life in supermax with the rest of his family. I get he has the best lawyers in nyc. they must really have his ear and could prove he had nothing to do with his cousin and all them street guys killing scopo. it really doesn't make sense he would. he was dealing with all his fathers and brothers legit companies. I seen a pic of the family mansion in Brooklyn that shit is nice. it looked like a recent pic. that family is paid. they give the gottis arun for there money.

didnt the bosses in the commission case admit to CN tho??

????

From MafiaWiki:

"The seven defense attorneys and Persico's legal adviser decided to argue that membership in the Mafia and membership in the Commission were not in and of themselves evidence of criminal activity. The mafiosi were reluctant to agree to this, believing it would violate the code of omerta. However, the lawyers impressed upon their clients that there was no way they could credibly deny the Mafia existed in the face of their own recorded references to it. They ultimately agreed to this tactic as long as they did not have to personally make statements to that effect on the stand. The upshot of this was the first admission in open court that the Mafia existed."

So to answer your question it appears they did admit the existence of LCN.

Im curious as to Bronx's take on this.
Were/Are the commission bosses considered rats for doing so?

persico admitted CN, that's why gotti called him a rat and pushed arena into taking over the family..not sure which of the other bosses admitted it through attorneys. i believe even badalmenti admitted CN..the bonano guys were taking pleas saying they won't make any more guys or something like that circa late 80's.. al walker..plus a few more.. who am i to say they should not.. omertà , not admitting CN is the first thing you swear to when getting made, i guess when you are the boss trying to save your ass in todays CN they justify it..even chin admitted the crazy act to get his son off.. i hate to quote gotti, even if the world knows CN exists .. if i had a steeple sticking out of my ass....never admit. there are and have been so many C.I.s of all ranks ,the stand up guys do not have a shot if they are active. when a guy flips today, nobody should be surprised..no matter what position they hold..i'm sure after some guys flip they figure out who the C.I.s were.C.I.s in my opinion even take bids to cover up .i.e. sparaco..johnson..sidge. et.al. if the mob guys do not kill or deal drugs..they will be around a long time..and if caught in spite of C.I.s they will only get short time..look what has been going on for the last 10 years. marino got 5 years for killing his nephew..shylock cases are getting under a year..they will build up if they stay non violent..just keep making deals and use contacts ..good time to be a mobster

why is it so hard for believe to believe that this guy has a connection to the persico's farm? Yes, there are people out there that exist that know people in organized crime. In the tri-state area it really is not that uncommon. I know someone who is related to the Eboli brothers. Yes, people on the internet do exist in real life too.

Extortion : All good, the pimp knows exactly who I am.
