Furio where are u getting this from? I don't doubt its a NY thing since say the mid-late 80s.. But u had the las vegas interests of mob families across the country still intertwined until Strawman case in 84-86... There had to have been some sort of commission with midwest fams bein able to meet w East coast/ Ny fam... Ur gonna have to post a source for a statement like that.. And please for the love of christ Wikipedia isnt a valid credible source


I read it in the Raab's 5 families. Its logic that the east coast families had ties with the other families but the 5 Fams rappresent the small families and what say ny it the last word. The la stella restaurant meeting in 1966 was the last time that the families out NY was in the same place with the 5 families.


Furio its really not logic..I know since pry the 80s its been only NY and I read Raabs book multiple times find me where he said their have only been NY families involved in the commission since the 60s..your example of La Stella restaurant im well aware of, but I recall reading wiretaps of Fat Tony talking about the commission handling Cleveland mob business i the 80s and being involved with Roy Williams and Jackie Pressers appointment in the 70s and 80s..theres your evidence right there, so with all due respect buddy I dont think youre correct....Now since say 1986 say until now i agree its very clearly a NY, North east thing...and I would argue that its basically just NY, Decavs, and Philly...I dont recally seeing anything about Patriarca fam in relation to commission business
