But nothing more than that,so maybe its not true.

It's true, he flipped on some non-mob people a few years into his prison sentence. His father disowned him and went around apologizing to everyone.

I don't follow Philly as closely as I do New York, but I do remember reading an Anastasia column about this kid, and he wrote that he was a rat. And George is ususally pretty reliable.

It's covered in The Goodfella Tapes by Anastasia. A bunch of mobsters are on tape talking about it, and how his father reacted.

Yup, that's it, Ivan. I read that book in paperback a few years ago, and when I just read it here it jarred my memory.

Yes hes 100% rat. People dont mention him as much. He flipped later on. He flipped but his brother joseph didnt. Hes also the father of dom grande who was in that borgata case. dom use to b a 10 th n oregon guy now more of a mob associate. My understaning is he has no contact with his father. The whole family didnt. Wayne n joes father was bruno soldier coo coo. Is wayne still alive? I cant remember if he was the rat in philly who died right after getting out if jail n into witness protection. If not does anyone remember who that was?

yea i was reading on some site that he was a rat but the scarfo case from 88-89 only listed thomas del ,nick the crow, and phil leonetti as rats

I think you might be thinking of George Fresolone who was part of the North Jersey faction under Scarfo. He wrote the book "blood oath," I've never read it though...

Lawrence Merlino fits that description.As soon as he got out I believe he passed away within a few years around 2001,somewhere out in the midwest.Body was flown back to stomping grounds in Atlantic City area.They say he was really home-sick.It's probably tough being in the thick of things all your life in a certain area and then waking up miles away all alone with no where to turn.

Yeah a lot of Scarfo guys flipped when they realised they were going away for a long time, not Pungitore though, he did like 20+ now he's out, I wonder if there's anything worth coming back to though...

is pete the crumb caprio still alive? And what happened to john john veasey, as well horsehead scafidi

22...you got it for me. I was thinking of merlino. Your right. Thx
