Always found it odd with regard to the Joey Chang hit, that working alongside him that morning was Susan Lucibello, Gaeton Lucibello's wife. I know Lucibello was a Stanfa guy at one point before flipping sides. Pretty sure the hit took place after that timeframe. Seems odd that no one gave Gaeton a subtle heads up to maybe keep the old lady home that day?
And someone mentioned above about Joey going and pissing on his brothers grave. It was also mentioned somewhere that Joey Chang still hung around the Stanfa guys even after being shot. Can't remember where I read it, but apparently he had it out for his brother until his final day.
A book on the Ciancaglini family would be absolutely fascinating. Won't ever happen unless one of them agrees to cooperate one day, which seems highly unlikely at this point.
I wonder what happened between Joey and Mike that made them hate each other with such fervent disdain.
I get it. They were on opposite sides of the fence. But that's business. Their hatred seemed more personal.
I personally think if the Merlino faction had any nous they could have taken over from the Stanfa faction by playing the waiting game.
The guys around Stanfa were not loyal. Stanfa was patient with the Merlino guys and probably would've liked to have them on side.
Instead they had to have everything straight away. And look where it got all of them. 10 year prison sentences and so much bloodshed.
Who outside Philly would abide this?
Seems to be a lot of conflicting reports about Joey's health. Everyone seems to know everyone's business there. Joey mustn't get out a lot if people still don't know his health situation. Maybe he lives out of state now.
