Interesting the douchebag whos walking in with Joey Merlino to court every day is this 25 yr old Gambino associate.

I believe his latest case he got convicted on had him connected to only the Genovese. Anyone have more info or an educated guess about this?

I just can’t believe Joey would be walking into court with this kid. Just shows how much Joey loves the life.

I thought that guy was a teenager. I just assumed he was some kid.

Quote
Surveillance video captured Gabrielli pouring a liquid on the vehicle about 4 a.m. and running away with his right pant leg on fire, according to the complaint. New York police recovered a lighter and what appeared to be a burned gas can near the vehicle.

Gabrielli arrived at Jamaica Hospital Medical Center about 20 minutes later with third-degree burns and “clothing that reeked of gasoline,” the complaint says. He initially told police his injuries stemmed from a kitchen fire that erupted while he was cooking chicken and rice at his home.


This thing of ours isn't what it once was.

If you look at the pictures from Merlino entering and exiting the trial every day, this kid is always there right beside him—even though Merlino's longtime Man Friday, Ray Wags, is also often in the pictures in the background. I wonder if Tuccio was the one driving Joey every day.

Seems scott reported on it too but didnt offer much in terms of the connection?

He mentions Joey is close to the Perna crew of the Lucchese, does he mean Ralph or the sons who got busted a few yrs ago? I believe theyre all made but some more knowledgeable north jersey guys can pry set that straight

Apparently the kid has some serious connections, I don't think a boss like Merlino is going to let just anybody follow him around.

Here you go Furio...


Talk about your childish Gambinos.

Three men tied to the notorious “organized” crime family torched a car to intimidate a businessman, but botched the job when one member of the thick-headed trio caught fire and was captured on tape scurrying away, federal prosecutors said Friday.

Peter Tuccio, Jonathan Gurino and Gino Gabrielli chased down the businessman in Dec. 2015 after seeing him leave a Howard Beach smoke shop, eventually confronting him outside a pizza parlor, a newly unsealed indictment revealed.

Tuccio then allegedly asked the man about a Gambino capo he owed money to and made mention of his Mercedes.

Later that night, the man watched his car burn. But his home security camera also captured the blaze.

The footage revealed Gabrielli dousing the Mercedes with liquid, the car bursting into flames and Gabrielli sprinting from the scene with his leg aflame.

The pants-on-fire perp and Tuccio were later captured on surveillance video walking into Jamaica Hospital, according to prosecutors.

Gabrielli pleaded guilty to arson in August 2016. Tuccio and Gurino were indicted Friday.

“Organized crime families have long relied on extortion and threats of violence in exchange for so-called ‘protection,’” said FBI Assistant Director-in-Charge William Sweeney. “As alleged, the defendants set a man's car on fire to send a message, but now they are the ones feeling the heat.”

Friday’s indictment charges Tuccio and Gurino, both 25, with arson, arson conspiracy, extortion, extortion conspiracy and using fire to commit a felony.

The far-from-dynamic duo were both released on $700,000 bond and placed under house arrest with their parents agreeing to put their houses on the line for their release.

Tuccio, who dutifully attended every day of Joseph (Skinny Joey) Merlino’s racketeering trial earlier this year, wore all black to the arraignment .

Gurino, his head hung low, wore a grey tracksuit with blue stripes.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Nadia Moore said at the hearing that a witness to the fire reported finding a dead rat on her car.

She requested Judge Steven Tiscione remand the two men, contending they’re a flight risk and pose a danger to the community.

Tiscione acknowledged that while it was “certainly a crime of violence,” nobody was physically injured in the fire.

Both Tuccio and Gurino deny the charges. Each faces a 15-year mandatory sentence if convicted.

yep furio. they hit people hard for that crime and 95 percent of the time its organized crime. some bookie up here around boston burnt his bar down to collect the insurance when the feds snatched his up on a federal indictment for the usally loan sharking , gambling and the arson. he got like 20yrs for the fire. the way they look at it is your either crazy like go to a nut hospital or you putting firefighters lives in danger almost like shooting at cops. they hit them hard.

Same thing here for the Spadas in ostia,when they are classificated as a mafia type organization the police hit them hard and seized even the houses where lived more of the spada clan members,houses that anyway was illegaly occupated by them for years.

I can’t help but speculate that this young kid Pete Tuccio took this arson pinch and proceeded to flip and the Feds then proceeded to send him down to hang around Joey Merlino and kick money to Joey so that they could potentially get Merlino tied up in something very similar to what they did with JR Rubio in this last case. We all know that money is Joey’s weakness and every questionable character that Joey has brought around who flipped on him (Previte, Rubio, etc) were only around him because they were funneling money to Joey. He’s definitely “with” Joey and the Philly guys and not just an assigned driver from the Gambinos when Joey is in NYC because we’ve seen pictures of this Tuccio kid with Joey and the Philly guys recently (Dom Grande, Ray & Eddie Wags, Mike Lance, etc) in multiple locations in Philly and not just walking in and out of the N.Y. court so safe to say that he’s been brought into the fold with the Philly guys most likely by Joey. So it could be a last ditch effort by the Southern District of NY to try and entrap Merlino and get him on another charge(s) using this Tuccio kid (assuming that he did in fact flip after getting in trouble for the arson thing or even something else that we didn’t even know about)?

I dont think that Merlino would be so idiot to trust a kid that maybe flipped due the arson charge,for sure there are things that we dont know.

interesting theory would make it allot more interesting of a case feds are capable of anything , but I doubt this kid flipped , his family put up there house to get him out , if he flipped woudnt they set low ball bail? If he was wired for sound wouldn't he be more valuable on the street then some crap arson case ?

Re: Gambino arson case- tied to philly? - 11/29/18 10:11 PM

so gangland wrote a little article about the young kid. first thing his dad was a ny cop for from 86 to 98. then started a trucking biz. so the kids pops wasnt a federal inamte. i was wrong on that. the kid and his buddys were associated with iggy alogna. john gottis buddy seen in alot of photos together. sounds like the victim was paying iggy 100 bucks a week for protection of his pizza place. 400 bucks a month and he was late on his protection fee. im surprised thats still a thing in 2015 when it happend, which i guess still happens today. also iggy was a capo. i was surprised at that. he tried shaking down a strip club in ct with guys from the patriarca family. then tony megale found out and chased them all out of ct around 2008. guess iggy died in 2016.

You know what the crazy thing is that they could have sent the same message with the same result by just slashing the guys tires and smashing all his windows and headlights.

If they get caught you would get a slap on the wrist.

These guys aren't wise guys.
