Gennaro “Jerry” Bruno...just entered a Plea deal..21 years. What are the chances this guy is looking to cut a deal.? i dont think he is cooperating he has been inside since 2011 now waiting for this to go to trial not flipped through that time. The case against him was not that strong i have been reading alot about it on gangland 21 years for murder is not bad he has already done four years he got unlucky that larbarca got him caught by telling santos bruno was the killer in the bosshard hit After he got in his car, and right before he turned off the tape recording device, he is heard boasting on the tape: “Howard Santos. November third, five fifty two PM. Just cracked the murder of Marty Bosshart,” according to a transcript of the conversation obtained by Gang Land.
Before beginning the discussion, Santos put his cell phone in his car, and told LaBarca to do the same, ostensibly to assure him that “just in case, God forbid” the feds had bugged their phones, no one would be listening into their private talk.
“Maybe curiosity will kill the cat, but I got to ask you something,” he began. Then he mentioned that although turncoat mob associates John Alite and Peter (Bud) Zuccaro “were suspects who killed Marty,” he knew that “it wasn’t neither one of them.”
Santos quickly got LaBarca talking about things he knew he shouldn’t be discussing by stroking his ego.
First Santos voiced a question that kept coming into his mind: “Why does Al (Trucchio) keep coming to you as the go-to-guy to do something?” And then he answered it, “He knows that you’re a capable guy…”
“Yeah. Yeah. Yeah,” said LaBarca, who was hooked. “You know what, he tries to take credit for that …. There was a rumor that he got straightened out right after that, and people like, you know (assumed that Trucchio was involved in the hit.)”
LaBarca fingered mob associate Gennaro (Jerry) Bruno – who has not been charged but is behind bars for another conviction – as a quick-fingered triggerman who jumped the gun and fired the kill shot before LaBarca could. Codefendant Roccaforte, on the other hand, dogged it, said LaBarca: “He just didn’t answer” his phone “till like an hour later.”
Even though the younger, less capable Roc was “made” and LaBarca was still only an associate, he didn’t “hold that against him,” said LaBarca, adding that Santos was the “only person” he had ever told about the murder.
“You, I would trust with my life,” he said.
“Todd,” Santos lied before he closed the door of his BMW and drove away, “honestly, I’d die in the street before…” He left the rest of his pledge unstated. He didn’t have to spell it out. After all, what are friends for? how he did not know that santos was wearing a wire is crazy the questions the guy was asking were crazy. That gambinos got lucky alphonse truccherio drove past this fed and santos in a car together alphonese put the word out on the street he was a rat if he had not seen him santos could have been undercover for alot longer and took down alot more guys jo jo corezzo will be in trouble if he does flip though he was in his crew

no one has been convicted yet thats why i put it on that list and i meant to put in the luchese list
here is what capeci had to say recently not full article not board breaking rules
Bronx ADA To Top Brooklyn Fed: We'll Take Manhattan
A top federal prosecutor in Brooklyn sought — but failed — to take over a long-running investigation into a bloody 2013 mob rubout in the Bronx that was being conducted jointly for more than a year by the Bronx District Attorney's office and the Manhattan U.S. Attorney's office.
As Gang Land reported last year, the Bronx DA's office obtained an indictment of two suspects in the gangland-style slaying of Michael Meldish, the onetime head of a notorious mob-tied crew of drug dealers dubbed the Purple Gang. Meldish, a Luchese associate was shot to death in the driver's seat of his car in front of his Throgs Neck home on November 15, 2013. In their joint probe, the Manhattan prosecutors also hit one of the murder suspects with federal gun charges.
But sources tell Gang Land that Nicole Argentieri, then-deputy chief of the Brooklyn U.S. Attorney's organized crime unit, told Bronx assistant district attorney Christine Scaccia to "stand down" on the case because she had developed a mob turncoat who had important information about the killing. Argentieri told Scaccia she was working to charge the murder as part of a racketeering indictment, sources said.
The sharp elbows from the Brooklyn fed didn't sit well with the veteran Bronx prosecutor, who serves as deputy chief of homicide prosecutions, and of her office's Gangs-Major Case Bureau.
"Why would I do that," Scaccia replied, according to one of several sources who have told Gang Land about the brief conversation between the two prosecutors. "I'm a homicide prosecutor, and I'm indicting people for a murder in the Bronx. You do whatever you want to do."
It's unclear whether Argentieri, who now heads the Brooklyn U.S. Attorney's anti-corruption unit, or her office, ever began an investigation into the murder, or if she forwarded whatever info she had to her federal counterparts in Manhattan. Argentieri, Scaccia, and the federal prosecutors in Manhattan all declined to comment.
Meanwhile, the indicted murder suspects, Luchese mobster Christopher Londonio and associate Terrence Caldwell have been cooling their heels behind bars — Londonio in federal custody, Caldwell at Riker's Island — as the Bronx DA's office waits for the Manhattan U.S. Attorney's office to turn the Meldish slaying into a federal case.
Scaccia, who convicted Meldish's brother Joseph of a 2007 killing five years ago, has been trying murder cases in the Bronx for more than 20 years. She obtained the indictment of Londonio, 42, and Caldwell, 57, in June but since then has made no effort to move the case along — in what appears to be a stalling tactic designed to give the feds time to put together a federal prosecution.
Sources, as well as records in state and federal court files, indicate that should happen soon.
In January, Scaccia told Bronx Judge Steven Barrett that she expected the feds to take over the case before the next scheduled status conference, which is scheduled for April 5. A Manhattan Federal Court status conference in a related federal weapons indictment against Londonio is scheduled for April 8.
Sources say one factor slowing the process is whether the feds can muster enough evidence to charge former Luchese family "street boss" Matthew Madonna, who was known to have been feuding with Meldish in the months before he was killed, with ordering the slaying.

Oh, come on! You can throw a nerf ball from the Meadowlands and hit Manhattan! Man, Jerseyans always got a chip on their shoulder! Must be the toxic fumes. (you know I'm just fucking with you Dante. Got love for Jersey.) Lol right? I always find the Giants debate entertaining, becausw Jersey folk always get so mad. Listen, there is a reason the Maras and those before them wanted to rep NY and not Jersey, because we'are the big city, much more of an attraction claiming NY than Jersey. And the Metlife isnt far at all from NY, yes its in Jersey, but you can see it over the water in most boroughs. And the Jets only recently began practicing in Jersey. For the majority of their existence, at least as far as the 90's and 00's go, they practiced at Hofstra. I'd go and watch them every training camp.
