Screamed and yelled? When did I ever "scream and yell?" All I've ever done is report what the FBI has said.

In 2007, during the Family Secrets trial, they said the Outfit was down to 4 crews - Elmwood Park, Grand Avenue, Melrose Park, and 26th Street. A few years later, in 2011, one FBI source said the Outfit was down to "two or three crews" but never specified which ones they were.

Furthermore, there's been nothing concrete (unless you want to count a few blog articles) about a "new Lake County crew" in terms of the overall Outfit hierarchy. Simply the Carparelli bust, who were reported to be working under Salvatore DeLaurentis who has operated there going back decades.
