Tony “roach” Rampino

I find this guy interesting. What little I know about him. Gotti’s crew, drug user and tough guy. I read the guy was as strong as an ox and a tremendous athlete. Drugs were a problem but anyone know anything else. Hits? Rackets? Buddies? I like learning about the lesser spoken about guys.

Yeah he was a longtime Gotti associate. Yes his heroin addiction in his younger days was a big issue but he supposedly kicked the habit by the late 70s. Although he would never get made he was one Gotti a loan collectors and was involved in hits like Paul Castellano. I also think he was involved with the John Favara abduction/killing

Dude looked like a cross between one of the Hills Have Eyes mutants and that Tall Man character from that 80's horror movie Phantasm.
Did quite a bit of dirt apparently, but never got made (probably due to his past smack habit).

Man i haven't thought about Phantasm in years. Most underrated horror movie of all time. The sequels weren't the best but none of horror sequels of that time were either.

That's kinda the thing with horror movies tbh; a great original followed by (a) shit sequel(s).
Gotta say I have a soft spot for that second Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie with Dennis Hopper tho.

He was a high ranking guy he probably would have got made by Gotti they were good friends he was a shooter on big Paul but he gets busted for selling heroin in what 86 87. The current Gambino consists Mickey paradiso brother was the one who set Tony roach up. Did he try to make a deal or not will never really know he did look 20+yrs on the drug charge and died in jail. Think I read jr gotti would send him money. I mean if he could have made a deal at any time in the 90tys and got a pardon if he have up any body's against the gottis and he didnt so...

Fuck spell check
