Meyer, Jimmy leaves himself exposed more often then he should, so I don't think he is the Capo, but a highly trusted member of the crew, acts more like a right hand man, than a Capo. That is my opinion.
Nicky, The Russo's have been taking guys off the self from the third Colombo war. They have been grabbing guys from the Colombo brothers crew since Anthony Colombo passed away last year. Juniors crew supervises them, and that is why I call them the Persico crew. Andy Russo and Jerry Clamenza uncle Jack had some talks, and since then I believe Green Eyes has come back into the folds, but I don't think Chris Colombo has come back as he is still in Orange County New York. The Aloi crew took many hits and the Colombo brothers moved into areas to take over as there really wasnt anyone saying overwise as they were not stepping on anyone's toes. They were shelved and did not give up the gangster life style. Thanks giacomo !

By Sparaco, are you talking about Frankie Blue Eyes? No, Frank turned and is in his 60's I believe. This Sparaco is younger than Frank. Perhaps a relative or maybe a son. Yes, I was going to mention that. Not to mention Frankie Blue Eyes was also Brooklyn-based I'm pretty sure. Who do you mean by LaRosa?

The Real question is.. Who's left to control Queens..? A lot of guys just hiding out in their homes.
The Ronnie Giallanzo bust of 2017 proves that there are not only a spate of young guys looking to fill the ranks, but there are also millions of dollars to be made even through the standard, unsophisticated blue-collar crimes like loansharking and gambling.

Also, the DeBello/Delligatti bust in northeast Queens (Whitestone) was pretty major. I am sure they were an arm of the Corona Genovese faction, what's left of it. Two attempts on the life of Joe Bonelli (Genovese) The meeting at Tratoria 35 with the Bonanno bigs (caught on tape by FBI). One can safely assume that what is left of the Vernace and Truchio crews are still very active in Glendale and Howard Beach. Vito Grimaldi still owns the bakery in Ridgewood, and Cammarano has married into that Bonanno faction. Colletti (Genovese) in Middle Village and Asaros remaining crew in Ozone. There is a lot of activity. Queens is far from over... The only families not prominent seem to be Colombo and Luchese. Though it was mentioned above that the Lukes still own the funeral parlor in Corona.
