Cicero guy who worked for Steve Annoreno and the LaPietra's in their loanshark operation as an enforcer. He later went to Bridgeport with LaPietra but continued living in Cicero until he passed. Just down the street from Freddy's.

Basically ran the mob for about 8 years. Very old school and well liked.. Once Sam carlisi went away in 1993 ,was running the mob until he died. Controlled the Laborers Union as well as the hotel and restruant employees union and had Ronnie Jarrett Wacked out in 1999 and like I said ,basically ran the mob from 1993 until 2001.

DiFronzo may have been the boss but Monteleone was the guy running things on the streets and doing the dirty work. Pretty much everyone else was dead or in prison.

Monteleone did some time for contempt by refusing to testify about some car bombs in Milwaukee. He ended up serving four years (1986-1990) which was pretty steep for contempt. He probably died at the "right" time because if he would have lasted another couple of years he would have been caught up in all the Family Secrets stuff.

The same Anneoreno that Frank Calabrese Sr first worked with when he started loansharking?
Wow if Johnny Apes worked for Steve Annoereno, it must have been quite the ascension if he ended up succeeding the LaPietra's

Calabrese began in the Outfit with Larry Steubich, then got hooked up with Angelo LaPietra. Annerino ran LaPietra's loanshark racket and used guys like Frank Calabrese, George Vertucci (Paul Carparelli's uncle) and Louie DeRiggi to collect his debts. Steve probably wasn't bossing Frank around and Annoreno later had a falling out with Angelo (after he got out of prison). The story goes that Angelo had Annoreno stabbed in the chest as a warning to leave the rackets. Annoreno ran a successful Italian Beef place later I think.

Don't want to speak for ChiTown here, but I believe Nick's testimony was more or less accurate. Nick was either extremely truthful or a good liar. Considering the emotions he displayed on the stand I'm going to go with the former.

There were several "Annerenos/Annerinos"; Steve, Sam and John. Steve was the guy Chi talked about who worked under LaPietra and Sam was a low-level guy involved with the chop shop rackets in Jimmy Catuara's crew. He was later killed by the Wild Bunch. Sam's cousin John, who worked for the city of Chicago, was also killed after a botched murder plot involving the death of a cop. John's death was more than likely a personal matter as opposed to anything Outfit related.
