The truth about Cleveland - 01/20/12 11:28 PM

I have been reading these boards for a very long time, years in fact. I have a feel for most of the people on these boards, the ones who actually know what they're talking about, Ivy, phatmat, etc. I would like to finally bring to light and put to rest some of the Cleveland talk that has frequented this board and others for quite some time. This is the main reason why I started this thread and opened an account. After I am done explaining this you can accept what I have to say, or not, makes no difference to me or anyone else for that matter, but this will be my first and last post as I will most likely just go back to reading the boards anonymously every day, like I have for the last few years.

First of all the formal structure of the remaining Cleveland family is done. We don't have anyone in any form of a position. I am one of the remaining few guys left in the area, total there are 10 of us, italian that is. five of the ten are formally "made", the other four would have most likely been "made" as of the early nineties, but never were, one of the “made” is in prison. This doesn't really matter as we consider them part of the inner circle anyway. I am not one of the five formally made members. Outside of the ten of us is loose connection of people we trust and have trusted from the 1960's, which includes three additional italian families and one greek family.
All of the Italian families are very well known in the area. Most have construction companies, subcontracting services, etc. Two others have a real estate business, and the rest work for a local temp staffing company. Most of the remaining guys who have been in trouble eventually just end up working for the staffing company as a mid level manager or local crew leader of a construction firm. The greek family that has been a part of us since shonder walked the streets is still involved, they originated in mansfield around the 1950's and ran a very successful book operation with shonder, and it is still in business to this day, taken over now by the son. He lives in southern ohio and handles action in columbus and cincinnati. He meets with us monthly in Cleveland to discuss currect state of affairs and what else is going on south of Cleveland. Outside of that we don't get into very much of anything anymore that doesn't involve sports betting. There are two major problems in starting this thing up and keeping it sustainable. One problem is that there is literally no italian in cleveland or the surrounding area that can live up to the values and respect of what "used to be". Most the kids of the guys we socalize with have never broken a law in their life, which is a good thing, and they have no intention on leading this type of liftstyle (especially after the thousands that were poured into their college educations). The second problem is that local FBI, police, etc know exactly who we are and what we do and where we hang out. If you want me to be completely honest, it sucks. Remembering what used to be is probably the toughest of all. It is probably a smart move on our part to disband any type of formal structure as for the most part we have all made our money and destroyed enough lives, including our own. It is a rather sobering experience to finally come to terms with the fact that you cannot beat the system, it is impossible and is the main reason why this thing is turning back into what it used to be when it all started, a street gang.
We still meet all the time, couple times a week actually just south of Cleveland. We have contact with most of the other families in the area as far as Detroit and Chicago go. We have contact with New York on only a personal level, as two of our remaining guys know only a handful of guys on the east coast. We don’t do business with any of them. I think it’s funny and frustrating at the same time, to see some young kid get on here and talk about what they think they know about what goes on in the city, Cleveland that is. Like I said before , it’s just really bothered me for a long time and I finally have to say something about it. Take it or leave, PM me if you want, I might respond to a few of the more well respected members on the boards, but that it.

I love that video. The best line is "Who the fuck still uses a pay phone?" - that's one of the funniest things I've ever heard. Actually I like Cleveland a lot, great town and the only real city in Ohio.

Now, as for the OP, he could be full of it but based on what I know, his account certainly does have the "ring of truth" to it.

Russell Papalardo is one of the people involved in real estate that the OP mentioned. Dude's a Realtor and you can hire him to sell you a house in Cleveland (for the price of a VCR, as the song goes, haha).

Re: The truth about Cleveland - 01/21/12 02:28 PM

phatmat - In my younger years that area used to be known as Big Italy. Lot of Italian families lived in that area a million years ago. To show my age I still remember, as a very young boy, Greektown on Bolivar.

Dicknose (lol) - Cleveland isn't the type of city to go downtown and be dazzled by the likes of cadillac ranch or any other number of similar bar/clubs. Cleveland is an old city, and to really appreciate it you have to go to the lesser known areas to outsiders. Slavic village, little italy, westside market. Westside market is a great place, makes me remember growing up, the orignal market used to be, i believe, about in the outfield of jacobs field. But there is also Great Lakes brewery in that area. Lots of great areas to feel the nostalgia of a city that was the backbone of this nation for so long. You are spot on about the rocknroll HOF, I went a few years ago and was less than pleased, it was one of those things you do once and never do again.

So if cleveland is basicly dying wouldnt some Ny guys want to go down there and take some of their rackets.I can only imagine if this happend in Philly or jersey it would of been open season.Still if there is no Italian community then recruitment dries up and it becomes a case where the only guys left r the last remaining guys r the final generation

Well NY guys don't really know Cleveland. Jersey is a different story because it's right next door and the NY families are already there.

Great article about Iacobacci and some white collar fraud he ran with a young guy from NY. Even had the involvement of the Chicago Outfit, all the way into the late 90's.

Yes, Iorillo died in 2008.

Re: The truth about Cleveland - 07/20/12 01:02 PM

John Iorillo is dead like what Hairy said. My good friend Walter Iorillo (not a hood at all) is from Cleveland, from Mayfield Heights, graduated from Mayfield High School, and is the cousin of John. Just was in Cleveland hanging out with my friend and his wonderful family. What Cleve said is very true about being no more Cleveland branch of LCN there anymore. However, most old mobsters don't get on mob forums and especially don't get into beefs with forum members over their posts. For the people on here, take what he said (as being a member of the Cleveland Mob) with a grain of salt. We don't know the guy. Remember, those of you familiar with the way mafiosi act, you know that they at least try if not really do keep a low profile, and they do care about what others say about them, but don't write on forums about who they were and who they know. They also don't mention the names of people in their criminal organizations. Like what he did. I can tell by the way he writes that he's a pretty articulate individual and he's definitely from the home of the Indians. I'm not calling him a liar, but I just don't believe everything I hear from people, and I find it strange that after one of the other guys that took dumps on me over one of my charts has recently been kicked off this forum he posted this comment and said he is leaving the forum. What a coincidence, over the fact he was one of 3 of them. Hmmm. Could be he's mad his friend got kicked out. Just saying. As far as growing up with mafiosi the ones who run this forum would know more than anybody in my opinion. I do like his post I will say. He did write some interesting stuff and I do think there's some truth to it. Ciao.

Re: The truth about Cleveland - 07/20/12 01:51 PM

You just put your good friend Walters full name on on a mob forum cause hes the cousin of an old Cleveland guy cause your trying to prove you know just as much about Cleveland??... cause of your good buddy Walter??? lol... makes no sense. I enjoyed Clevetalia's post and I take your "i know everything about every family" posts with a grain of salt. Let people form there own opinions...just saying.

Re: The truth about Cleveland - 07/20/12 01:55 PM

SP, I am letting people form their own opinions. I formed mine, though. His post was interesting and I enjoyed it as well. Yes, I did mention my friend's name. My name is John Dan Cancilla. I have my name online as well, if you look me up on google and put Campbell, CA next to it you can find me on FB or there could be stuff about me being a pizza chef and singer. No big deal.

how do you know? mob guys come in all shapes sizes and education levels. I read the posts you are talking about he was just simply stating that greene's kid was not involved in the rackets. He was 16 or maybe 17 when his dad was killed.
Who knows if cleveitalia was involved with lcn or not with out knowing who is is you cant prove it either way. But what he said about Cleveland is true. He never mentioned any names and what he said I can guarantee you the fbi already knows.

I only now read this thread and I wonder how I could have missed it. Anyway, sounds to me this guy is genuine. He doesn't brag and isn't claiming that this guy was the most powerful and that guy wasn't.

There are probably many more wise or connected guys visiting this board on a regular basis. I would appreciate it if someone could enlighten us a little bit about Buffalo.

Everything he says matches up exactly with what everyone I know who lives there says what's going on.

Note that I don't have any firsthand knowledge myself, so it's possible he's just repeating the same rumors that those people have repeated. But I doubt it; his post seems to have the ring of truth to it.

It's not considered a viable family anymore. Hasn't really been considered such since the 1990's. It was then that Laborers Local 210 was put under oversight and later declared free of organized crime influence in 2006. The cases in recent years have showed more remnants of a family that once was. Some guys getting popped for this or that, here or there, not much cohesion. In my opinion, they seem comparable to Detroit.

Re: The truth about Cleveland - 07/22/12 10:23 PM

Leadership was disbanded roughly after 1990. Once allie died, and we all went to prison, there were a handful of us still on the street, what was left, delmonti essentially helped the FBI to put their foot on our neck throughout the 90's. Luz went to prison around 2002, and since then it went downhill fast. We decided to run what was left as as individuals.

NJboy, i dont believe you even deserve a reply, but based on your last post i think i have to acknowledge the fact that you are indeed a boy. No man responds in such an immature and inconsiderate fashion.

Re: The truth about Cleveland - 07/22/12 11:41 PM

My friends from Cleveland told me to tell you "If you are a so called mobster from Cleveland, why do the blacks run the streets there now?" Yes, I'm a young man and don't appreciate being threatened in messages either. You also threatened Muk before over his Cleveland picture chart, too. That's what boys do like what you say I am. Anyway, I'm done on this thread and with you. By the way us youngsters run the show these days pal.

Nice pm you sent me - "I'd kill you you fucking punk ass kid." It doesn't scare me, though.

You guys will learn, one way or another, to stop this childish shit with the name-calling. You WILL learn, or you won't ever post here again.

Re: The truth about Cleveland - 07/23/12 12:31 PM

I know the board rules, i read them, but SC you just banned me for no reason. First of all, the "ill kill you" PM doesnt exist because i never sent that kid a PM. As a moderator you should be able to see that. Second of all, that doesn't even sound like something i would ever say to anyone, especially not the internet. I in no way shape or form called him a "name",

this kid is deceitful, he made up a fake PM that i "supposedly" sent him, if that is the case, i want you to do the honorable thing and to "print screen the PM message i supposedly sent you and email to SC.

I have no reason that i should be banned and I can't believe this kid actually is THAT bored that he has resorted to these measures.

SC, i know you have a big job to do, but look at that kids posts and look at mine. Who is more likely to send a PM that says "Ill kill you"? You know this kid is lieing and i should get my full board privliges back.

Re: The truth about Cleveland - 07/23/12 01:28 PM

I also don't know what picture chart you're refering to. I dont know who "Muk" is, and i dont know what you're talking about. COULD YOU PLEASE REFERENCE THE POST, THE DATE, AND TIME, so that we can all see what it is that i said. Thank you!

You were suspended for flaming remarks you made. Arguing a moderator's decision in public is a bannable offense as well. Opening a second account is also a bannable offense.

In the meantime, we'll investigate this stuff and come to some decision about the first offense, and I'm warning you to just sit tight and wait for that decision.

East side of the core city is mostly black. It's one of the most "segregated" cities in America (voluntarily so; people have just settled in together with people like themselves).

Anyway, it's a mistake to judge Cleveland by its core city alone as it's inner ring of suburbs are just about as urban as the core city - the core city (it's about 60% black) is actually quite small geographically, with just under 400,000 people. The metro area, which is mostly urban, is about five times that. (six if you count Akron; some people do, but I think it's too set off to count as part of "Greater Cleveland").

yes blacks go to the westside some even reside there they just dont run it.


I have heard a few people say that. I can tell you from my experience they are more bark then bite. But many of them are in the rackets tight knit group. I used to sell drugs to a crew of them out of Parma and they inturn sold to there guys. They were kinda flashy and always chirped at the mouth. This group of about six loved hookers I am not sure if they were running the women or not. I didn't think much of them either way . I never really liked hanging out with them kinda of annoying. Despite the big bank scandal at that credit union the guy got busted got 20 years i think. In my opinion they are not the biggest gangsters in the area.

There are also local gangs who I would guess have more of a presence. The madison madhouse was one of the biggest on the westside and 7 all on the eastside there are many others as well. But they dont have the infrastructure to run shit out side of there turf.

Cleveland mob.com is hardly credible, let alone the $30 million figure
There are two confirmed made guys, Joe Iacobacci and RJ Papalardo...confirmed made guys. Joe Loose lives in his parents house and RJ sells real estate, lives in a tiny little bungalow across the street from Jimmy DiMora. They've been done since the 1990's, remnants still there, but haven't had a structured family since around 1993. Check out Allan May and Rick Porello's work, both the foremost a experts on Cleveland.

jcb1977 You are full of shit on RJP. TINY BUNGALOW???? he has a 6000 sq foot home.

Loose parents have both passed away. He now resides in that house. Its a decent house( middle class) Remember loose is a career gangster and he didnt give a shit who knew. He has nothing in his name. HE lives a life of leisure. Does he have a pile of cash he is sitting who knows. He sure isn't that flashy outside of his newer caddy.

RJ also owned another home that he was staying at for quite some time, it was a smaller home, around 1700 sq ft.

His address is 4440 Ammon Road, Cleveland OH

3 bd / 1.5 ba / 1,657 sqft
Single-Family Home

His other home was at 7253 Forestwood Dr
Independence, OH 44131, which was 5700 sq ft if he still owns that one.

Maishe Rockman's kid and John Scalish's kid (first cousins) both run a body shop in the Mentor area of Cleveland, which is very successful and a cash business. Both kids are not involved and supposedly are good guys to deal with when your car needs work. Remember, John Scalish owned Buckeye Vending, which was the most lucrative vending machine company in NE Ohio and was a "legitimate" business. Although many business owners "probably rented or bought their machines from Scalish out of fear," nobody ever complained they were forced to deal with Buckeye Vending.

I remember him getting mentioned in the DiMora case to about the extent that No Nose got mentioned in Family Secrets - sort of there in the background, and acknowledged as important, but there was not enough to tie him directly to the case.

I still think it's hilarious those two lived right across the street from each other. A helpful map:

Extortion,

Get off the thread if you have nothing intelligent to add. I happen to actually know who most of these guys are and a lot of their kids. It's no secret in Cleveland what their kids do for a living. You're truly pathetic and don't offer shit to the equation.

JcB,

I enjoy your posts and knowledge on everything especially Cleveland and I know it is not bullshit because everthing I needed confirmation on you confirmed it.

Keep it up bro, Viva Italia.

Much appreciated Scalish. Your posts are very enjoyable as well and your enthusiasm for the Midwest families is great...there is a small contingent of people like us that still enjoy learning about powerful families that are now defunct. Last of the Mohicans so to speak.

I second that. JCB is a gentleman and he's very knowledgable about an area (Ohio and Western Pennsylvania ) that, as a New Yorker, I don't know much about.

But some people have lives that are so small and unrewarding, that all they can do is come here and troll. But the good news is, after they ultimately get banned from here, they'll still be living with their drug problems beneath the poverty line.

I second your seconding. I'm actually from the area in question and I don't know 95% of the stuff he knows.

I used to get threats on my posts in RD all the time, comes with the territory of having some inside knowledge and the willingness to share it

The fact is, although there hasn't been a fully functioning leadership in quite a while, the reports of the demise of Mayfield road are highly exaggerated, no matter what the FBI says.
