Tom Farese is a captain who was acting consigliere but I'm not sure that's still the case.
He's in Florida virtually all year round now, Ivy. He lives about a quarter mile from our condo in Delray.
Well hasn't he always been based in Florida?
Yeah, pretty much. But when I saw you post his name as a former admin member I mistakenly thought you meant that he was back in New York. Because when he had that spot, he was up here most of the time. Nothing clandestine or so-called "inside info."
It's just that the guy lives around the block from me down there and Floridians have a fascination with New York wiseguys. They'll gossip at a bar, be off by 99.9%, and my wife and I will just sit there and smile. My wife knows more about the life than those yokels
