What happened to "reformed"?????

Can’t say I’m shocked....

rat is a rat

always!

Held without bail for terroristic threats..Are you kidding me ?? People are doing far worse and being let out without having to post any bail !!

I don't care about this kid, but the government has already given him a pass for all those horrible things he did !!

This is so petty and the girls husband is a pussy for calling the cops. The kid lost his cool and said things out of anger, we all do it. Its ridiculous.
Held without bail for using words!!!! Are they kidding !!!!

. I mean he went too far. Also if you cooperate and make and deal you need to be on your best behavior. I mean he should have still been in jail. Sammy Gravano got a sweetheart deal that he didnt deserve but then he went out and made the government look bad with these Stacy thing so I didn’t blame them for wanting to pay him back for that. Say what you want about Phil Leonetty but he had kept himself clean and stays out of the public eye for the most part. He had gone a couple interviews and the book but that’s about it

Don't you think the real "pussy" here is Gene himself considering that he decided to become an informant because he didn't get his way? Plus the fact he didn't want to do the time because of that? I mean isn't his mantra how he became an informant so he could change his life for the better and "help the kids" not make the same mistakes he did?

This entire thing with 99.9% of informants is a scam. They all lie and feed into this whole subculture of glorifying rats. So when the truth comes out and the mask of the rat falls off...it shouldn't be that shocking.

Bingo!.... this Borello is a real bottom-feeder. And thats putting it nicely. !01% screwball, and jerk off, AND RAT!! Let's not forget that. No backbone at all.... signed TOG (The Other Guy)

Absolutely ...... he has mental problems ..... I’ve seen many like him ....very scary people..... and never good around normal folks .

I refuse to watch a second of anything this rat or John Alite is in. They can take their youtube stories and shove it.

Informers are scum. The only one's I forgive are people like Fat Pete who wasn't a rat but was almost assassinated and only flipped once the family wanted him dead for no good reason.

I feel the EXACT same way. I watched 1 single episode of these 2 idiots just out of curiosity. I did the same with that other hardon MF from out in Cali. What an embarrassing situation with all three of these rats.

Especially that Borello. He is a stone "punk," a guy who would NEVER make it in "real" OC. He was just an unhinged, loose cannon of a kid, who went around robbing people, independent drug dealers, and other punks. He wants everyone to believe that he's a respected Knockaround guy, NOTHING, I say it again. NOTHING, could be further from the truth!

He's a mentally-ill glorified "kid".... a screwed up kid. But a punk kid nonetheless.

Yeah this guy is a punk nothing but a rap listening thug at 36 yrs of age.I hope he enjoys pc in prison.He will be doing hard time if this don't do it he will get in more scrapes with law and he will have to go straight to protective custody with all the sex offenders lock down 23 hrs a day.He is no old school mafia he is a 90's baby punk enjoy lockdown Gene

It seems the FBI gave him a break, and were not going to arrest him, so he will face less time. The FBI would not arrest him after being told he made the threats, so the prosecutor he worked for did, leading to him facing 5 years instead of 20.

From today's Gangland by Gerry Capeci
In arguing for Borrello's detention, Gerdes noted that he faced a maximum of five years behind bars for his serious violation of supervised release (VOSR.) She noted that the same allegations would carry a prison term of up to 20 years if Borrello had been arrested on a criminal complaint by FBI agents who had been contacted about the threats, instead of being charged with a VOSR.

Whether you're in North America or Europe, guys like Borello are a dime a dozen. Every white working class area with more than 30.000 inhabitants has like 100 of Borello's. I've come across plenty of these types. Honestly, when they're young, to the average civilian, they're "tough" because they do actively hurt people. They rob a guy, they burglarize a home, they sell some childlike quantities of narcotics, they beat up a college kid at the local club or bar... The thing is, these are specific type or guys that are only out for some kind of reputation when they're young, but as they get older, they meet some truly hardcore types and then they get scared themselves because all of the sudden it gets "real".

I once saw a guy like this - I knew him quite well - kicking the shit out of an university student in front of his girlfriend for no apparent reason. Thought he was a badass. Some time later he started to get acquainted with a bigger drug dealer who trafficked in synthetic drugs. Of course the badass thought he was more badass because of this. Until he witnessed the drug dealer locking someone in a dog crate and pistol whipping him because a batch of pills got stolen. First thing this "badass" did was running to the cops to snitch on the drug dealer.

The thing is, these Borello-type of guys seem "tough" when they're young and out for a certain reputation - but in my experience they always prey on the easiest targets and time always shows that they're in fact weak punks that aren't built for the game when the game is really on.

Great post. True from your first sentence to your last. I grew up in a small town, and we had a few of that type even there. Not as bad as Borrello, but close. The only difference is the law was stricter there, and there were no mobsters to rat out in exchange for a deal.

Gene Borrello should of told the judge that he doing a podcast now and it’s helping kids stay off the streets.

It'd be hilarious if Peter Pan Tuccio was able to get at Gene Borello in jail. Genie would immediately PC up if he saw Tuccio.

That reminds me when John Gotti jr. told the judge he wanted to write childrens books..What a joke lol

Bottom line he's a rat who put people away who were living the same life he was living.

I've been saying for a while that one day these rats will be less effective than days passed. Once the public educates themselves on what they're really about it's game over.

. At the end of the day they are all pieces of shit it doesn’t matter if one is a rat or not. I personally believe cooperators get too much Leniency. Even if they get a reduced sentence they still should still serve a decent amount of time if they have heavy crimes like multiple murders. Phil Leonetti to his credit has kept his nose clean and stayed out of the public eye outside of a few interviews

Pieces of shit yeah, but it's still good stuff 😆 I'd rather read about pieces of shit who stand up in the face of the law than cave in and rat everyone out.

. Personally I find no difference. My only issue is that I feel cooperators deserve bigger sentences even if it is reduced. For example Sammy getting 5 years essentially was bullshit. If he got what he got fir the ecstasy conviction I would have been ok with that since it was close to 20 years. But it was karma for him getting that second sentence

They're pieces of crap for sure, I suppose I fantasize about some aspects of that life because I go work and bust my ass off everyday. They play by a whole other set of rules.

. You should be proud of that. My father and uncle were NYC cops during the time the mob were very strong and heard so many horror stories about them. My grandfather knew a bunch of wise guys but never wanted to be involved with them. I enjoy mob history but I never respect or strive to be involved in that world

I'm proud of the fact that I earn everything I have nothing is given to me. But the power, respect, and honor these types possess is alluring. There's a lot of rude fucks out there, I can't help but think they wouldn't act that way towards a Roy DeMeo or Greg Scarpa lol. Oh well, the life of an ordinary schmuck eating generic spaghetti with ketchup lol. I think that was in a movie 😄 🤣.

. Well I agree there are a lot of rude people but it’s never a good idea to want to be a killer 😂. I know the movies make it seem great and all but they stretch the truth to make them look more appealing. Believe me keeping your nose clean and having a straight job is much more respectful

Oh for sure I wouldn't ever actually want to live that life it's better to just work and save and buy yourself some financial freedom. The headaches isn't worth it.

Absolutely. I happen to know a lot about the mob coming from a Italian family in NY and because my father/grandfather knew/were aware of people in that life in different ways but yeah I would never want to be involved in that life. A terrible life for sure

Having a straight job is actually hard, which may sound strange, because most folks thankfully have a straight job.

Even if you earn a decent living, it's still negligible compared to what a lot of criminals make. Add to this the fact that you're on the clock for most of your day. You have to take shit almost daily, either from bosses, co-workers, customers... You're being put under quite a lot of pressure with daily and monthly targets and whatnot. All this for getting paid just enough to make ends meet, do some well-considered pastime activity and save a bit for the future. And at the end of the day - save for the absolute minority that's getting rich and famous with a straight job - you're still a complete nobody, even if you're valued at your job. Nobody knows your name and nobody will remember you when you die.

There's a major lure in getting into (organized) crime. You earn a lot of money, your name commands a certain amount of awe, you have considerable freedom...etc...these are all things a straight job in 95% of the time won't give you...or at least not to that extent. That's why there'll always be people getting into crime.

Keeping your life on the right track is not easy and in many ways it goes against your desires and wants...and it's all the more respectful for it.

oh absolutely it’s very hard especially if you have kids. That’s why the mob was so successful because they could attract a lot of people who would excel in that life with the allure of riches. Some were smarter than others and done were tougher than others but they got a good mix of box. But like you said it takes a real man to have a straight life and not get sucked up in that temptation

i heard on facebook from people close to him that he got beaten up really bad in jail and is in bad shape

Peter Pan Tuccio roughed him up!!!!

That was bound to happen with all the horeshit he was spewing on his videos

Mobsters probably won't target him, but there are enough associate wannabes or street/prison/biker members that would consider him a target just to get in some good graces
