Well, I've always thought that Roy was killed by the Gemini twins at Patty Testa's place after the Gambino's reached out to Gaspipe who set the thing up.

But one thing that had bugged me.....
The contract was first given to Gotti who couldnt get to Roy.
DeCicco couldnt get to Roy either so the Gambino;s reached out to Gaspipe.
Hmmmmm.............If I was Paul Castellano I would call in Nino Gaggi and say "you brought Roy into the family - YOU take him out".

I'm certain the twins killed him I just dont know if Nino was actually present or not!
But Richard Bullshitter Kuklinski certainly wasnt there - LOL

They got that on a wiretap? I though they only got the details through informants.

1. Last Testament of Lucky Luciano.

Writtne by Luciano. Classic

It's not against mafia protocol. It's amazing that people even buy into this shit. Carneglia's entire legal strategy was built around his beard. It was the dumbest defense since My Cousin Vinny.

people believe this because they said it in donnie brasco. for some reason this seems to be a large myth. ive also heard people bitching because billy bats had a moustache in goodfellas and they clearly stated that he was a made man from the gambinos. it very well could have been a capo's rule not to have a beard of facial hair in a certain crew. i would go as far as saying that perhaps one family may have banned facial hair. ive also heard theroys that made men perfer not to wear facial hair because of the moustache petes. again im not 100% sure about the facial hair rule but i honestly think people buy into it because of the donnie brasco movie.

I really doubt this has anything to do with some rule. If anyone can give me an example of a guy that got shelved because of facial hair, then I'd love to hear about it. Or clipped..that's even better.

Albert Anastasia - after receiving numerous warnings, he was planning on having his fu manchu shaved off that day in the barber shop at the Park Central. Unfortunately, he didn't move fast enough.

You're absolutely right. Fucker was growing a beard!!! Finally we have closure.

Anthony DeStefano's King Of The Godfathers is definitely worth mentioning. He is an extremely thorough guy and of very few mafia writers I hold in high regard.

I almost forgot about that one, Vinny. That is indeed one of the 5 or 7 best books ever written about organized crime. The concise retelling of the the Bonanno family history in the opening 2 or 3 chapters rivaled Selwyn Raab's take the situation, and blew away the fairy tales spun by both Joe and Bill Bonanno.

The only disappointing thing about that book was that DeStefano seemed to skip the 1990s entirely. He jumped from Massino's incarceration in '87, briefly mentioned his release in '92, then jumped way ahead to the Gerlando Sciascia situation in '99. There may have been a brief mention of Sal Vitale running things for awhile, but nothing about how Massino rebuilt the Bonannos into a legitimate family again (albeit for a brief while) after his release from prison in '92. It would have made very interesting copy. But my best guess is, he just didn't have the information available.

I mean, whe else would he exclude it?

AS for the books....

I stated "Making Jack Falcone" was the absolute worts book I own, well I went back the last few days and read some of it and well, I was right. This guy is a self tooting BLOW HARD.

He really thinks he was going to get made, and he may have but I will tell you this....

Insert him in Joe Pistone place, at that time, at that era, with those people and that family? Hes dead in 2 days.

He compares himself to Pistone so much in the book it makes me sick. Also in a Joe Pistone interview when asked about "Jack Falcone" Pistones response was "who" Enough said.

Not many people know this, but apparently The Colombos have a no pubic hair rule.

I wont ask how the boss enforces that rule! - LOL
