Trying to get this straight. We know that four ceremonies have taken place since the millennium. One shortly after the Casasanto hit (so around 2004ish), one in 2007, one around 2011 after Steve Mazzone cleared his parole restrictions and one in 2015. Here is the list of guys mentioned as new members since this period:

Damion Canalichio (made around 2004, identified in the Licata detention memo)
Martin Curro (identified on a Philly PD mob chart from 2009, perhaps made in the late 1990s)
Frank DePasquale Jr (identified as a member by a Philly PD officer during the Ligambi trial)
Eric Esposito (made in 2007, identified in the Licata detention memo)
Louis Fazzini (made in 2007, identified in the Licata detention memo)
Domenic Grande (identified as a captain by GA and DS)
Albert Lancellotti (identified as a member by CW Michael Orlando during the Ligambi trial)
Salvatore Mazzone (identified as a member in court documents from Lucibello’s parole violation)
Anthony Nicodemo (made around 2004)
Anthony Persiano (CW)
Salvatore Piccolo (indicted as a member)
Joseph Servidio (indicted as a member)
Anthony Staino Jr (identified as an associate in articles from the early 2000s before identifying himself as the ‘CFO’ of the mob in wiretaps from 2004)

2004(ish) – 5 guys made (Canalichio, Nicodemo + 3 others; likely Staino, DePasquale and Lancellotti)
2007 – 2 guys made (Esposito and Fazzini)
2011 – 3 guys made (Grande, Mazzone and Servidio)
2015 – 5 guys made (unclear)

Persiano and Piccolo were likely made at a different time or perhaps transferred from the Lucheses after the whole debacle with Scarfo Jr attempting to take over Philly.

Possible Members:

Anthony Accardo (indicted as an associate in the Merlino trial, rumoured as being made in 2015)
Joseph Baldino (rumoured as being made in 2015)
Joseph Bongiovanni (rumoured as being made in 2015, died in 2017)
Anthony Borgesi (identified as a proposed member in the Licata memo, rumoured made in 2015)
Vincent Grosso (rumoured as being made in 2015)
Philip Ligambi (possible member, made either in the 1990s or 2004)
Vito Malgeri (identified as a proposed member in the Licata memo, rumoured made in 2015)
David Salvo (rumoured as being made in 2015)
Michael Salvo (rumoured as being made in 2015)

Obviously not all of those individuals were made in 2015. Since no credible information has come out as to other induction ceremonies during this time it seems like at least three of the names above are not members.

There is no chance Sal Mazzone would've been made if it wasn't for who his brother is, right? Oh wait, it's Philly we're talking about.

You can’t just say that about Philly. Think of all the NY/NJ guys who have brothers or kids who were made that were stone cold morons and never really made any money but did a bunch of time for just being stupid.

That can't be true. The family had about 70 made guys in 1986 (just before everything fell apart) and only Stanfa, Riccobene, Long John Martorano, Chickie Ciancaglini and Chuckie Merlino were incarcerated at that time. There's only about 50-60 members now in total and that's including those who are incarcerated or under indictment (and also inactive members)

Thanks for the reply Furio but I'm talking about Jack's son Tommy. I know he's been in the mix for quite awhile and I would've thought he'd have his button by now if he hasn't gotten it already. Perhaps he's not active or some other reason if he doesn't.

Pmac just to,clarify..tanzo did like 2or 3years for the park murders then he got a retrial separate from codefendants and won it..the peps murdrered the guy up on Michelangelo st nort end, like a road rage beef day before then they came looking for trouble and certainly found it..Dave pep did like 7 or 8, Paul did and a and b not long maybe 1yr...Paul and David were first cousins with bobby luisi hence that is the tie..not street guys..but tough guys..will say tho, my guess is not a one of these guys are active in anything illegal

Info comes from Bobby Luisi. Says he was inducted in 1998 with Gentile, the Pepicelli brothers, Puleo, Tanso and Vetere and he was made captain of them. Bobby Guarente was proposed to be made and would've been Luisi's number 2 but he was never inducted for some reason and the New England crew fell apart some time after that. Luisi flipped, Gentile, Vetere and Tanso all did some federal time (Gentile's release date is next week), the Pepicellis were locked up for murder in the 2000s but as Biggie pointed out they're out now. Got next to no info on Bobby Puleo. It seems the only one of the Boston crowd who's still active is Vetere.

I’m not sure pr I haven’t ever seen a 302 where luisi named the peps or tango, I think he tried to leave them out..I could be wrong tho..puleo murdered someone over a parking spot or some shit in the 70s or 80s I think..puleo son was on the gig side of the war in 90s, but rumors he may have switched to salemme in the mike Romano jr mistake killing..and rumors he ratted after..

Gallara was nicknamed Joe Stanfa because he was so close to the boss, which often gets him overlooked because people confuse him with the actual Joseph Stanfa

Also stanfas son didn’t get any charges did he? Considering he was made and the bosses son is that quite surprising he didn’t get lifed off?

Allowing Persiano in on that family was a bad, very bad idea. He is a sneak, and a liar.

it seems like they were pretty much dormant until somebody supposedly brought them back into the fold in the last few years. that's speculation from guys like Scott B, but in some of the recent Mob Scenes when they're showing surveillance on the street theres been a couple Boston guys that you can spot. for all we know they could have just been visiting old friends.
