[quote=MemphisMafia]Leonetti's book also says that even as an 18,19 yr old kid Joey Merlino would scoff at the powers to be.Leonetti states he wanted to kill Merlino around 1983 or 84.When scarfo was in prison during this time Chuckie Merlino would send money from Philly and each time it would be short.Leonetti says no way Chuckie was taking it that it had to be Joey Merlino instead.Joey it seems would cause all kinds of problems at the casinos in Atlantic City as well.So he was very bold even as a teen [/quote

I wish he would write a second book and give details, cos he toned it down for regular folks and editors I guess .
