I've always found the statement from morena about Arcadia,Mucci and cotroni Jr bs.
Arcadi wasn't released from jail until Mar 2017.
Cotroni Jr has no influence in MTL going back probably to the 2004 death of his father. There is no evidence of the cotroni family holding any influence or power since SRS death.
Mucci is a possibility his allegiance during the MTL war has been a ??
Mucci was a longtime member of Paolo violis inner circle so that would make sense.
Also Arcadi is a Rizzuto loyalist and imprisoned or not would not be allied w/ the violi bros.

Do you guys think that Desjardins and Mirarchi will have their tickets punched? I hope that "Old" fuck gets it soon...

I'm curious as to what Mirarchi's status is now. He's been out for a while and it doesn't appear that there have been any moves against him. Is he back with Desjardins again?

Since his incarceration in December 2011, at least a dozen people associated with him have been murdered, including his brother-in-law and ex-mafia number 2, Joe Di Maulo in 2012, his friend and business partner, Gaétan Gosselin. in 2013, and his older brother, Jacques Desjardins in 2017.

Salvatore Montagna grew up in that life. He was a gopher and messenger for his father and uncles, and knew other important mafiosi in CDG and surrounding areas, the Domingos, Buccellatos. His father Antonio sent the family to America in the mid 1980s for safety after he had a talk with Calogreo Minero about Riina and his followers. When they moved to the Bronx, the mafia members the family had the most contact with were Manny Guaragna and Anthony Mascone. Salvatore did part time construction in high school, which he actually graduated from. Around 1988 Gerlando Sciascia had a construction company in the Bronx, and Montagna sought employment there. Not long after that he was on record with Sciascia and at the same time was an iron worker hence his nickname, and his fortunes began to start. He was back and forth between the Bronx and North East Brooklyn. He opened Matrix Steel Company in Bushwick. He was made at the age of 24 or 25, so he was made in either 1995 or 1996. When Sciascia was killed, Montagna was put with Patrick DeFilippo crew to keep an eye on him. Basciano had no problems with him, but Montagna may have suspected Johnny Joe was involved with Gerlandos killing. DeFilippo goes to jail and has legal problems and Montagna is acting Capo of that crew by 2003. Basciano is convicted in May of 2006, and sends word that Montagna is Acting Boss of the family.

Giuseppe (Ponytail) De Vito, who was killed behind bars via cyanide poisoning in 2013. De Vito had joined with Desjardins and deported New York mob boss Salvatore (Sal the Ironworker) Montagna to challenge Rizzuto’s power while Rizzuto was locked up. Three of De Vito’s top men, Giuseppe (Joe Closure) Colapelle (2012), Vinnie Scuderi (2013) and Nick Di Marco (2017) have been murdered in the war as well. Joe Closure was De Vito’s liaison to Sal Montagna.

I know Domenico Arcuri Jr and Antonio Arcuri were with Sal and Desjardins and Mirarchi were plotting to get them but didn't. Hollander was Joe Closure at one time a higher ranked guy in the Rizzuto faction before becoming a Desjardins loyalist?

Sometimes when a guy is moved up it is because he is controllable.
Meaning he will be an extension of the actual.

So he is more controllable than capable.

That may have been the case with Montagna, Basciano knew that he could 100% control Sal, and by default the family.

We can speculate on Sal all we want. Look at who replaced him when he was deported Vinny TV. I think that guy was easier to control or use as a acting boss then Sal. It clearly shows Sal was a rising star in the family and was not to be used as a front like Fat Tony Salerno was. Lastly, he had to be capable for he lasted, what 3 years as acting boss. He did serve under some great captains (Sciascia, DeFilippo, and Basciano). We need more rats from that family during that time period to fill us in about Sal's short reign lol.

One of my friends at work was close with the iron worker. Sal had recently moved from brooklyn to Bellmore i believe . He was acting boss at the time but he didnt have a crew on long island. For some reason the west babylon/babylon area is/was a bonanno breading ground. Knowing this he was going there looking for some guys i took it. Sal was my introduced to my friend by his father who was a long time soldier. Sal and my friend hit it off and became good friends. Sal liked my friend so much he was trying to make him but my friend had no interest in that life. But my friend really liked sal and said he was a really nice guy. Nothing like the hot head, loud mouth inspiring gansters that flooded babylon at the time. I met sal once real quick and he was a genuine polite guy. Sal always had a smoking hot girl with him ill tell you that. Anyway my friend told me about the deportation before it hit the papers. He even made told me Sal was going to take over everything up there like it was easy. Sals body was shipped dowm to long island and he was buried in pinelawn cemetary. Last thing my friend told me about that situation was the funeral was really sad. Sals wife and young kids didnt go to canada with him and stayed on L.I.. Sals wfie and kids missed there hiusband/dad and the when they finally see him its in a casket. My friend said sals family was devasted.
