Gregory J. Scarpa Jr was born on April 8,1951 son of Connie Forrest and Gregory "The Grim Reaper" Scarpa Sr a Colombo mobster and Fbi mole. Followes his father in the mob life and becomed a mobster in the Colombo family and as he said was made in October 31,1978 in the same ceremony where was made Michael Franzese even if another date could be the 1981.After made was placed in Anthony “Scappy” Scarpati crew and become official capo in 1984 until december 1987 when was indicted for drug trafficking. In February 1989 he was sentenced to 240 months' imprisonment sent to Manhattan’s Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC). In 1995 Vittorio Amuso the boss of the Lucchese family insulted Greogory father calling him "rat",that is true but Scarpa jr decided to defend his father honour and beaten Amuso that maybe thinked that his boss status would have prevented Scarpa Jr from attacking him but he was wrong. Scarpa Jr was sent away from the other mobsters and came into contact with Ramzi Yousef the mastermind behind the 1993 World Trade Center attacks to provide information in exchange for a 10 year reduction to his twenty year sentence which however was increased to 40 years because the judge did not consider the information useful the informations provided.In 2005, Scarpa tipped off authorities about previously undiscovered explosives and ammunition buried in the crawl space of the home of Terry Nichols, a fellow prisoner at ADX Florence who had previously been convicted for his role in the Oklahoma City bombing. The Federal Bureau of Investigation had previously searched the home multiple times and the new discovery "embarrassed the F.B.I." according to Judge Edward Korman of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York. In December 2015, Judge Korman issued an order reducing Scarpa's sentence to 30 years in prison due to his tip in the Oklahoma City bombing case. The reduction was reversed upon appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit which reasoned that, although he had provided substantial assistance to the government, the government had the right not to reduce his sentence based on legitimate concerns related to his false statements in the Yousef case. In November 2020, Judge Korman granted Scarpa a compassionate release from prison. Scarpa had been suffering from cancer and treatment had left him with no salivary glands and a hole in his throat. He planned to live with a sister in Florida. People killed by Scarpa Jr Eliezer Shkolnik (1980) - Greg Scarpa admitted it was his first murder and that his father was proud. Dominick Somma (1980) Robert DiLeonardi (1981) Alfred Longobardi (1982) Sal “the hammerhead” Cardaci. Witness Mario Parlagreco described how he cleaned up Cardaci’s blood and brains in the bathroom of Mike’s Candy Store. Years later were his bones dug up from a basement. Albie Variale (1983) Scarpa sr also killed in 24 September 1984 gangstermole Mary Bari in the Wimpy Boy Social Club in Brooklyn. Scarpa jr got the okay from their capo Anthony “Scappy” Scarpati who already told them they would burn in hell for it (because it is INFAMIA). Mazza recalled how Scarpa sr would brag and laugh as he described how Mary Bari’s ear went flying across the room when he shot her in the head. also Carmine Sessa took part in the murder of Bari. Albert Nacha (1985) Anthony Frezza (1985) Michael Yodice and Jose Lopez (1986) Joseph “Joe Brewster” De Domenico (1987) Ray Shapiro (1987) https://caselaw.findlaw.com/court/us-2nd-circuit/1195251.htmlI believe Scarpa was overheard laughing about an ear flying across the room but it was in reference to a different murder that was unreported, and it has always assumed to be Mary's ear but her ears remained on her head when she was murdered. "A Mafia chieftain known as “the Grim Reaper,” Scarpa ordered an underling to collect the severed ear and dump it with garbage that was hauled away by a waste hauler linked to his crime family. When the DA probers heard the tale, they assumed the ear was Bari’s and checked. To their amazement, her ears were there. They now are checking homicide and missing-persons records, hoping finally to account for the mysterious ear." https://nypost.com/2006/03/31/mystery-of-1984s-gory-ear-whacks/

It's part of their culture. Traditional gambling games in the Wild West included faro, three-card monte, and the ever-popular Texas Hold'em poker game. These games were not restricted to saloons and gambling houses, often spilling out into streets, camps, and even church meetings. Texas Hold'em poker: Not much has changed since then.

So any guys alive who met Cosa Nostra legends and bosses?
I read the story of Neil. He was born in 33 and allegedly drove for Tommy Lucchese or something of another. So he was 23-25 years. Do we have more stories of that kind? Vincent Aloi? I don't see that he has died... but he was made in the 1950's; and most likely met Joe Profaci.

Russian expert blows the whistle and is interrupted on TV Updated: Today, 12:37Today, 11:14abroad? A Russian political scientist and well-known commentator was rudely interrupted live on Russian TV because he was talking out loud about what he believes are President Putin's real plans.
65-year-old propagandist Aleksandr Sytin spoke about foreign policy, but forgot for a moment what the Kremlin's official position is: Russia has been attacked and is only defending itself. According to Sytin, 'Russia is following a certain expansionist course. That's a fact'. To continue: “And not only in Ukraine, by the way.”
Discussion leader Andreij Norkin intervened at that moment. Just as Sytin explains why NATO wants to stop the Russians and how they want to do it, he is interrupted. “Not true!” shouts the moderator. “This is not expansion, but rather the defense of national interests and security.”
Norkin does not wait for Sytin's answer and says: “We have to interrupt. We're back after a break. Short break…"
The subtitled images were posted online by Julia Davis of the Russian Media Monitor. She follows and criticizes the Kremlin. She has been on Putin's sanctions list since May 2022.
It is not the first time that Aleksandr Sytin has gone off the rails. In October 2022, he criticized Putin live on TV, who was at the time bombing Ukraine's energy supply. “That way they cannot be broken,” said Sytin, who reminded people that Ukrainians were once residents of the Soviet Union. “They won't surrender because they suddenly have to fry their bacon over a candle.”

Greenvale shooting: FIFO assassin suspected of killing Melbourne greengrocer John Latorre on Mafia orders Hunt to find greengrocer's killer continues Sources claim John Latorre gunned down by FIFO assassin By KYLIE STEVENS FOR DAILY MAIL AUSTRALIA PUBLISHED: 22:11 GMT, 17 March 2024 | UPDATED: 10:08 GMT, 18 March 2024 A fly-in, fly-out assassin is suspected to have jetted in from overseas on a Mafia-sanctioned mission to kill a successful greengrocer in a brutal gangland execution. John Latorre, 64, was gunned down outside his Greenvale home in Melbourne's north as he headed to work early last Tuesday morning. His family were woken by the gunshots and found his body lying in the driveway. Almost one week later, Mr Latorre's killer still remains at large. Underworld sources believe the execution was so well planned they believe it had to be '100 per cent' endorsed by the highest levels of mafia leadership. Mr Latorre is understood to have been a discreet but influential member of the 'Ndrangheta - a powerful Mafia organisation from Calabria, southern Italy. 'This was smooth … cool, calm and calculating,' a source told the Herald Sun. 'This is a professional job. There's not that many people able to pull that off. 'They wouldn't have done it without assurances. It's a big job.' The source added that many didn't see Mr Latorre's killing coming which he described as a 'huge shock'. He added that the possibility of retaliatory attacks was unlikely. Another theory circulating in the underworld is that a bungled 2020 'black flight' cocaine importation bound for Queensland could be a factor behind the murder. An overloaded Cessna packed with $80million of the drug crashed after takeoff from Papua New Guinea. Mr Latorre was suspected of playing a key role in the botched importation which left investors with heavy losses. He was known to visit friend and international drug trafficker Frank Madafferi but did not have a major criminal record. Mr Latorre was shot multiple times in the driveway of his Buchanan Place home around 4.30am last Tuesday. He had been heading to work at Melbourne Market in Epping, where he ran a successful fruit and vegetable business. A source close to Mr Latorre said he had felt no threat on his life prior to his death. 'There was no indication of any threats to his life,' they said last week. Homicide detectives are still investigating whether the shooting was linked to organised crime. 'There's nothing to suggest retaliation at this point in time,' Detective Senior Sergeant Danny Travaglini told reporters last Tuesday. 'However, you've also got to understand, that if there are links to organised crime, there is the potential for retaliation.' Homicide detectives have collected CCTV and have narrowed down their investigations to a four-hour window between 2am and 6am in their hunt to track down Mr Latorre's killer. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...eengrocer-John-Latorre-Mafia-orders.html

Great points, all.
I wonder, if Vito had known it was Barzini "all along", what precisely could he have done differently?

Toodoped do you believe Solly there in regards to the making ceremony?? Again, Solly was 100% made during the late 1980's according to another made informant i think....in fact, years or decades before Solly's interview, old time member Marshall Caifano made the same statement to the FBI regarding the Outfit being an alleged "simple group of gamblers" or something like that, meaning its some type of Outfit/Mafia thing aka statement for the feds and the general public lol Not Toodped, but I'm pretty sure he was confirmed at a ceremony in the late 80's at the Como Inn. Maybe 87 or 88. Could have my guys mixed up, but im almost positive he was one of the people who was straightened out at one of those ceremonies in the mid to late 80's. +1

The repentant Cosenza superboss Franco Pino was left without protection The leader of Cosenza is out of the program but has never stopped collaborating. He was the first to reveal the summit held in Nicotera between the godfathers of the 'ndrine and the emissaries of Cosa Nostra to start the massacres by Arcangelo Badolati 09 MARCH 2024 Franco Pino The super repentant "dumped". Polished language, iron memory, storytelling ability, cunning: Franco Pino, the former godfather with the "ice-cold eyes", is considered a precious source . A sort of Calabrian version of Tommaso Buscetta, Angelo Siino, Antonino Calderone, Francesco Marino Mannoia because he had his hands in every deal and, often, the last word on the life and death of many people. Pino was the most powerful boss in the northern area of ??Calabria.. https://cosenza.gazzettadelsud.it/a...ne-75ec5dfa-0c1a-4b89-8d05-476ca39d18ee/
