I've posted this before - and I could be wrong as well - but I'm nearly certain that Johnny Chang was inducted by Merlino once he came home from prison in 1995, not by Scarfo. According to the Pennsylvania Crime Commission, there were 42 guys inducted by Testa/Scarfo/Piccolo from the time Testa took over in April 1980 until the last making ceremony conducted by Piccolo in 1990 (which was recorded by George Fresolone).

I uploaded a screenshot of those 42 names:





Obviously the list was put together with the help of cooperating witnesses, ie. Caramandi, DelGiorno, Merlino, and Leonetti. There was also a newspaper article that I've posted before from when Johnny Chang was coming home from prison in 1995 and the reporter contemplated which faction of the splintered crime family he would return to. He was named as a "mob associate" in this article.

http://articles.philly.com/1995-01-06/news/25712825_1_john-stanfa-joseph-skinny-joey-merlino-mob



Johnny Chang was indicted in 1986 at the age of 31 by NJ State Police in Operation Tiger Shark as a Soldier

Why is Johnny Chang hanging around with Screech from Saved By The Bell?

His name is Virgil Mariutti and he testified against the Philadelphia Housing Authority. This is one of Chang's best friends.

But the judge, saying it was "one of the most difficult sentences I have had to impose," still sentenced Mariutti to eight months in prison for his crimes.

All to avoid 8 months in prison?

What a pussy.

for what it's worth that woman in the pic is Maria Testa (Salvie's sister) and her husband. Virgil Marriutti is the guy who ran Virgilio's and who it was named for. Maria Testa Muzio also testified against the entire Scarfo family in the Testa murder trial so that's two I guess. I wouldn't really classify Virgil Mariutti as a rat but I get what you're getting at. They killed Frank Sindone at Mariutti's house also.

Wonder if there are any recent pics of Joey Chang about?

Must be an interesting dynamic.

His brother and father socialising with the guys who left him a vegetable.

Wonder if he has a miserable life, or if he's doing okay?

As long as you can make money they don't care if your a rat, junkie, fag, child molestor etc........ Even Marty Angelini backed up from these guys. He's been saying that they are all a bunch of mutts. I guess where there is smoke there is fire. LCN is a thing of the past. Wake up people.

I'm honestly stunned by this. Never in a million years did I think there was any truth to these stories. South Philly guys are usually very anti-rat, especially the mob guys.

However, Johnny never really struck me as a hoodlum. He's not the type of guy who will go after you with a baseball bat. Didn't it come out during the trial the he was the only guy in that crew who didn't have a girlfriend on the side?

I wonder what Joey is thinking. Or Stevie.

the philly LCN has been a thing of the past since scarfo and his guys were busted. Stanfa organization had some strength but even that mob was mess ended up in a war.

Since merlino and natale took over in 1995 this family has become a joke. In north jersey there was paedophile casale.

philly mob has been the most dysfunctional family since the 90s the whole thing is a circus which makes it interesting for to watch

Not connected with scott or anyone at gangsterreport

Sorry for the confusion

What about Frank Gambino who was a member? He was also a homosexual and a pedophile. He had young kids in prison while he was doing his sentence. These guys don't look into their people background like years ago. Literally they hung a help wanted sign in the window. Bottom of the barrel scavengers.

He actually has his own name written on his jacket in case he forgets.

They call him Simple Stevie.

Yeah, but that's not the issue. The issue is Joey's outfit. If I didn't know who that was, I'd think this guy was a backup dancer for Weird Al Yankovic.
