Laforte Sr was in Gotti's crew, JOE the Cat, Gotti, couldn't stand him, they killed that black guy who took a shot at Gotti and threw the body in Joe The Cats Store on Staten Island, a message about disrespect.
Buddy his son was made but shelved,
These are Buddy's two sons Joseph and Jimmy

They owned a title company in Staten Island and got jammed up about 10 years ago
They got out and got into the MCA business

They raised money from investors and promised high returns
Nothing more than a Ponzi Scheme

I haven't been on here in a while a few years back I was hinting without saying this is where alot of LCN guys have been making a killing over the past few years
Legalized Loan Sharking
I personally know more than one crew making a killing in the business

I am not sure what happened to all the Real-Estate the grandfather used to have, I know the Raven Night was seized
When they got Jammed up with the title company I know the mother and sister got indicted along with the two sons, it was a family affair.

Joe Sr "Joe the Cat" passed away. He and Joe Jr had a falling out. Joe Sr had a second family [ not friends of ours ] and when he died he left every penny to his second family. Kind of a dick move but what-a-ya-gonna-do?

Joe jr and Buddy's kids now have to scramble around in small time hussles to get by.

He ended up in Gotti's crew for a bit but The Cat took over as Capo of Neils crew. One of Neils main guys. He fell out of favor with Neil when he tried to appoint an acting Capo of the crew without Neils advice or approval. I think he bypassed Neil and went straight to Paul with his pick. This pissed Neil off, who went to Paul and had the at busted down to soldier and put under Gotti for a time when Gotti was still a Capo. Gotti and company were caught on wiretaps talking down about a guy named Buddy. People think they were talking about Armond " Buddy" Dellacroce but they were talking about the Cats son Buddy.

Small time hustles?

They are about to get indicted in a $500MM Ponzi scheme .

Prior to this they owner a big title company that they busted out took millions bought millions of dollars of real-estate.

I know the feds took alot from the title company bust the whole family got indicted the mother, father, sister and brother in law, the brothers got between 4-6 I dont remember.......

They were also involved with drugs, gambling, putting money on the streets.


That was back in like 2010.

After they got out of jail, they opened up their lending business PAR, P.A....

These guys aren't knickle and dime hustlers.... THEY GO BIG....
