In 1974 they made Vincent Cafaro, Patsy Genese and possibly Tino Fiumara. I donĀ“t know who the Luccheses made (and if they did). But in any case, Casso was not one of them.

Furnari was probably made in the late 1950s, before the books were closed.


Furnari was released from prison in 1956 from a rape charge then made in 1957 after spending the previous 10 years in prison?


Yes he was probally pre Apalacian,he was capo already in the early 60s..It was early 60s late 50s,when he opened the 19th hole bar..He was supposedly from the Navy Yard,where a lot of Lucchese members were from.
