Why was Angelo Prisco broke?

He was a capo and his guys would have been kicking up to him and of course he would have had his own schemes pulling in cash so why would this guy go away for good, broke?

Gambling problem maybe? his crew was a bunch of brokesters maybe? or Angie and his crew made big scores to far and few between?

He probably didn't make any investments in real estate or legit businesses to keep the income stream coming. A few racketeering trials can drain any money buried in the backyard. At least he's doing his time in Florida instead of some freezing shithole in the Midwest.

That's exactly right. He didn't have any long-term investments and/or real estate except for a modest house in Yonkers. And he always had more power than he had money.

His entire family lives down there now, even his first wife, mostly around Boynton and Delray. It's still a three-hour drive through Deliverance Land, but it's better than getting on a plane once a month. Plus, they always spent a lot of time in Florida anyway.

Just goes to show he could been free along time ago probaly living in a beach front property if he played ball with not a worry in the world. That FBI guy would regualy visit him in jail hoping to flip and the other guy antico they both nop. Tommy shots blogs about him calls him the seducer lol.

Angelo would never flip. He may have been broke, but that's only because his status meant much more to him than money. And flipping would ruin that status. But he was pretty disgusted towards the end.

The thing that made Angelo unique among wiseguys of todays era, he could care less about what was in his bank account. The only currency that mattered to him was the respect his name carried on the street. While alot of his friends went for the fast money in drugs, Angelo was never tempted to go that route. At the end of the day tho, if you ask me, none of it really mattered because they all ended up doing life.

Sorry to be off topic here . But some of these guys are getting railroaded and us as Americans are letting the feds play any hand they want.
I know so many crooked L/E that it makes me sick that they make a ton of cash both ways...

Stop replying to my posts. You were warned. Every time you do it, I'm hitting the notify button. And if you remember correctly, SC told you last time that it was your last warning. When you see me post, you wait at least two posts before replying. And don't quote me or address me directly. Ever. SC was very clear about that, too.

And you wouldn't know Angelo from the fucking people you held up out in Cowtown, Pennsylvania, so shut your fucking mouth about him.

You reply, I'm going to the mods. Every fucking time. And that goes for your new alter ego, too.

I was replying to the original poster I never once mentioned your name. News flash, your not THAT important. Everything is not a conspiracy against you.

Please, he ran the fucking Purple Gang. Forget that Meldish bullshit. Angelo and Patty Prisco were the first guys on record with the Westside out of that crew. It was raining skag on 116th Street back in the '70s. Do the math. After he got his button, he left that business behind.

The owners of this site should be concerned about you chasing away every new member. I havent posted anything in the past month and the first post I make you jump all over me. To everyone reading this with any sense of right/wrong, Cmon enough is enough already. I didnt mention this guys name and he jumps all over me. This really isnt right. So no one on this board is allowed to have any opinion on Genovese/Bronx stuff besides you. You have everyone on this board fooled. Go ahead and and ban me and you can go back to your dry-snitching about guys you claimed to grow up with.

Jbell we all know the owners of this site won't ban you and your bullshit accounts. That's the only reason you're still on here

If society stigmatizes you, nobody cares what law enforcement/legal system does to you.....you are presumed guilty. People doing the SAME actions but who look different or have different last names are presumed innocent until proven guilty.

There is some truth in what you say there BUT you got played like an old violin. You responded directly to him despite promises you wouldn't. He owned you and you fell for it. Doesn't make it right but I am so sick and tired of this shit that I'm gonna take this opportunity to end it now. BKLYN2NASSAU is gone as of now.

And I agree with everyone that says he was "another person" too. He came out the gate posting shit that he knew Pizza would reply in and get his blood boiling. Same with Neo, he's new and starts talking Prisco and Supermax in which he knows Pizza knew Vinny's family personally and is just baiting him.

I honestly cannot wait until November gets here and that asshole is finally locked up (the trouble poster) because we won't have to deal with 100 names belonging to one poster.

Actually I didn't know that and I've only talked good about Vinny.

I didn't even know Vinny was locked up at ADX, it was PB that mentioned it in a post.

PB been meaning to ask you, is it true he was born in Melrose Park?

That's fine. Maybe we're all getting paranoid. But if you turn out to be that guy, you'll eventually give yourself away. And you'll end up with the same fate. Meanwhile, welcome to the board and enjoy .

I've been on this board nine years and never been caught in a single contradiction about the street. General discussion and other sections, I probably can't make that claim.

As for "dry snitching," I've never said an incriminating word about anyone alive and/or presently on the street. I'm not the one with a five-year adjournment on a case that should have been wrapped up years ago. I know a rat from a rat.

I've seen your picture, and I've read your charges. The other sites left everything up for the whole world to see. I look into your fat fleshy face and your scared little girl eyes, and I KNOW that you can't handle prison.

But that's it. I know you're reading this somehow and somewhere. You stop sneaking back and fucking with me, and I won't say another word about it. The mods here don't want or need the aggravation. To them, I apologize, especially to SC.

to whom it may concern,

you are actually disrespecting this board/forum with the trolling...enough negative energy in the world without you bringing it here where guys (and girls) are just here to blow off steam, learn stuff and talk ish.


I happen to think Pizza is good people*, but like he mentioned before, by trolling a member here...any member, you are in fact attacking and disrespecting the board.

There's a million more important things you can be doing with your time than trying to get attention from other grown men.Nobody looks back on their life and wishes they had spend more time trolling people on the internet.



(*to the grammar police, just old school nyc slang and a subtle dig at the troller being multiple people)

Right back at ya, Gets .

Yes, but it was through happenstance (visiting, or whatever the case may be). He never lived in Illinois. His family was already firmly entrenched in Harlem and the East Bronx by that time. His Uncle Rudy (who is often misidentified as his father) was already a made guy with the Westside at the time. He basically grew up every day of his life in New York.

Ah, gotcha. Wondered if that was another Westside/Outfit connection right there.

The Westside/Outfit connections have been plentiful since the beginning. The Genovese Family is probably the New York family that most resembles The Outfit. Secretive, Americanized, they stress getting involved in legitimate businesses, and they play a lot of golf lol.

I threw in an lol, but I'm basically serious there. I think they realized a long time ago that friendly business is easier to conduct on the golf course than in the boardroom or in the street. The two groups often met in Palm Springs for golf weekends. This was as recent as the early '90s. Today, probably not so much, except for all of the Outfit and Westside guys retired out there (and there are quite a few).

Check your email Ah Beetz.

Made me wonder if Prisco had some ties out here through his family. Interesting stuff. I know some Outfit guys in a recent bust were out in Jersey collecting some debts. Wondered if they had any contact with any of the other guys out there.

CURRENT CHICAGO OUTFIT CAPO ,JOHN MATASSA JR. HIS BROTHER INLAW IS POWERHOUSE WESTSIDE CAPO DANIEL PAGANO(who I would say will be the boss of the Genovese family soon once the real boss Dom cirillo goes). They each have some interests in the laborers and I know they made money through Chicagos control of the teamsters recently and McCormick place

I'm well aware of the relationship, Louie. And if you go through my posts, you'll find that I've been calling Danny Dom's protege for years. But QD is semi-retired except for an old shy book and some trucking interests in North Jersey and Rockland.

I'm not a "researcher," and I've lived in the East Bronx for almost 56 years. Except today we split our time between here and Delray Beach. I'm not looking for a pissing match. But take it from me, QD has basically packed it in already. His neighbor in nearby Locust Point is much more influential on a daily basis right now.

I was just adding to the discussion my man , I very rarely post and I live in delray Atlantic avenue and delray is much different world than it was. Anyways. The WESTSIDE and Chicago have long standing ties , and they have always had the most secretive and sophisticated administrations

No shit? I never knew that. Put Delray in the search feature and you'll get at least a hundred hits from me over the years. We're on North Ocean, two complexes up from the Marriott. We bought in '97, but I've been going down there for over forty years. Small world.

Re the Westside and The Outfit: We basically said the same thing. No biggie.

Small world is right , I'm right off Linton ..... Yeah we did the say same things... Bottom line there administrations have always been the most secretive cautious and sophisticated and sorry to the gambino lovers but in terms of costa nostra politics especially in the heyday. The 2 most powerful administrations

REALLY small world. We almost bought right off Linton and Federal, across from the old movie theatre. We looked at Domaine Delray and Banyan Tree Village. But a miracle happened and we stole the place that we eventually bought. A 3/2 right across from the beach. Walk to everywhere. But look who I'm telling where you can walk in Delray lol.
