Some of the guests at Frank Narducci's wedding reception last September were family - members and associates of Philadelphia's Angelo Bruno crime family. Atlantic City has traditionally been part of their turf, but as the resort declined, so did the profits to be made there. The legalization of casino gambling, however, opens up lucrative possibilities for organized crime, and some of the guests at the bright yellow tables in the Philadelphia Sheraton's Grand Ballroom may have been celebrating not only a marriage, but also the money they expect to roll in from the action in Atlantic City. Many had made or were arranging significant investments in the New Jersey resort. The celebrants:

The frail, 67-year-old man seated at one of the tables was Angelo Bruno, identified by law?enforcement authorities as the family's boss and a member of organized crime's national council. In his more vigorous years, Bruno compiled a record of arrests for receiving stolen property, and dangerous?drug, lottery and gambling violations. Re- cently he spent nearly three years in prison on a criminal?contempt charge for refusing to testify before the New Jersey State Commission of Investigation.

Out of jail now, Bruno works for John's Wholesale Distributors Inc., Philadelphia company that distributes cigarettes to retailers and vending-machine companies. One of his employers enthusiatically describes him as “supersalesman.” In addition, accord. ing to Lieut. Daniel McFadden, head of the Philadelphia Police Department's Organized Crime Unit, Bruno has “very lucrative” illegitimate business concerns such as gambling, numbers and “large?scale crap games,” plus “definite interests in casinos in England and the Bahamas.”

“I don't want to own the [Atlantic City] casinos,” Bruno told an S.C.I. investigator, “I want to service them.” Just two weeks after New Jersey voters approved casino gambling in the resort, John's Wholesale acquired an Atlantic City luxury?tax cigarette license. Since then more than 90 vending-machine accounts have switched to Bruno's firm, resulting in an antitrust civil suit charging “a conspiracy which has the purpose and effect of achieving monopoly in the vending?machine market.”

Seated at another table at the Narducci wedding were two of the executive officers of John's — Raymond Martorano and his brother John. Raymond, whose real name is lgnatio but who is generally called Long John, is considered by the F.B.I. to be “very high up in the family.” It's a sign of his prominence that he sometimes acts as Bruno's driver. The president of John's is, in effect, a chauffeur for its supersalesman.

Long John Martorano is also a convicted narcotics dealer with financial interests in more than a half?dozen legitimate businesses, ranging from discount drugstore to Doggie Island, mobile food stand in Philadelphia. These companies, according to the S.C.I., are just a few of the concerns he monitors as a soldier in charge of the Bruno business empire, which law-enforcement authorities believe — but have not proved — extends a lot farther than cigarette machines and hot?dog stands. In 1974, for example, while in London, Martorano was arrested by Scotland Yard along with a vice president of the Las Vegas Tropicana Hotel on information that he was involved in skimming money from a London casino. No formal charges were filed, howand both released.

It was Long John Martorano who ar- ranged a meeting between Bruno and an Atlantic City police officer in September 1976. According to a confidential police report, Detective Sgt. Angelo Cibotti was unaware whom he was meeting until he was seated next to Bruno in a private room at Atlantic City's Lido Restaurant. The purpose of the get?together, the sergeant said, was to discuss whether the vending company in which he (Cibotti) has an interest might replace its current cigarette distributor with John's. But, the sergeant told investigators, as soon as he saw Bruno seated with his wife, Susan, in the back room, “It was all small talk. Besides, I just wanted to eat and get out

The Atlantic City Police Department cleared Sergeant Cibotti of any wrongdoing in meeting with Bruno. This was the second internal?affairs investigation which has exonerated the officer, who was an unindicted co?conspirator in a recent kickback and extortion scandal involving a former mayor of Atlantic City and the detective's brother-in-law, former Atlantic City Public Works Commissioner Arthur W. Ponzio. But at least one state agency is still investigating the meeting.

Two members of the wedding party eating off solid gold plates on the dais of the Grand Ballroom had also attempted to open a business in Atlantic City. The 24-year-old groom, Frank Narducci Jr., and 21-year-old Salvatore A. Testa formed a corporation that purchased for $250,000 Le Bistro Club, a nightclub which is close by the Atlantic City Convention Hall as well as two proposed gambling casinos. The financing for the deal, Narducci told investigators, was obtained from “a wholesale jeweler who was a very good friend of the family.” Their families were what troubled the Alcoholic Beverage Control Division of the New Jersey Department of Law and Public Safety, which, after a lengthy investigation, prohibited the transfer of the liquor license to the club's new owners, though neither aphas a criminal record.

Young Testa's father, Philip (Chicken Man) Testa, has been identified by the S.C.I. as the Bruno family's underboss. Arrested 11 times by the Philadelphia police and convicted once for violating gambling ordinances, he spent part of 1973 and all of 1979 in prison after refusing to answer questions posed by a Philadelphia grand jury investigating organized crime. The groom's father, Frank T. Narducci, has been arrested 18 times and convicted on three occasions on gambling charges. Last year a Federal District Court entered a default judgment against him for $273,316 when he did not appear to defend himself against civil charges of evading income and wagering taxes from
Law?enforcement officials are concerned that the illegal gambling and loan?sharking in which, according to F.B.I. affidavits, these men and Bruno are involved will spread to Atlantic City once the casinos open. Already, according to the F.B.I., Bruno family associates are acting as loan sharks for gamblers 2,500 miles away in Las Vegas; it is unlikely they will hesitate to expand their operations a mere hour's drive away from Philadelphia.

These loan?sharking operations are controlled, according to the S.C.I., by another guest at the Narducci wedding, Frank Sindone. A husky, baldish man, Sindone normally converses in a quiet voice which he raises only in the course of conducting business. He raised it when talking over the telephone in November 1970, to Sidney Benjamin, a

Philadelphia businessman. According to an F.B.I. transcript of the call, Sindone warned Benjamin, “I'll break your back for you if you don't bring me my money. . . . I'll pull your eyes right out of your head.”

Was it unfair to penalize the young Narducci and Testa because of the activities of their fathers and their fathers’ associates? Atlantic City Police Chief William tenBrink said, “You can't deny them a [liquor] license solely because of the sins of their fathers.” But the Alcoholic Beverage Control Division also had access to a confidential surveillance report which noted that the young partners had proceeded from a meeting with the Alcoholic Beverage Control Commissioner to a barbecue at the Atlantic City home

Little Nickie Scarf() is considered by New Jersey State Police to be “a high?ranking member of the Bruno organization.” Not surprisingly, he, too, was a guest at the Narducci wedding. Scarfo has served time for manslaughter and for contempt when he refused to testify before the S.C.I. He is currently being in- vestigated for his role as “hidden investor” in at least three Atlantic City bars and one motel — recent expansions, police believe, of the Bruno empire into Atlantic City.

Another wedding guest, Angelo Bruno's nephew, Michael Grasso Jr., is also being investigated as a source of financing for these additions to the Bruno family's Atlantic City properties. He has been identified by the S.C.I. as the coordinator of the Bruno family's real?estate holdings. Police describe the 40?ish Grasso as a “financial wizard,” a typical second?generation family member who shuns the rougher, illegal businesses of gambling, loan?sharking and narcotics for the more sophisticated and equally lucrative areas of real estate and mortgage financing. Not all of his concerns are legitimate, however: He is currently serving a six?month sentence for an in- surance?fraud scheme.

A confidential Pennsylvania Crime Commission report lists Grasso as an officer of four realty companies and as “possibly affiliated” with 24 other firms, including a savings-and-loan association and a mortgage company which has recently made investments in Atlantic City. The 1971 report concluded: “By means of the various corporations with which Grasso is affiliated, his interests have spread to construction companies, nursing homes, motels, office buildings, yacht clubs, shopping centers, banks and apartment complexes. In addition, Grasso has obtained control of legitimate businesses by foreclosing on mortgages held by affiliated companies.” Now Grasso's interests, like those of other members and associates of the Bruno family, have spread to Atlantic City, where he has been a real estate agent.

Just askin' - How does someone that's banned still permitted to post?

It was a 1 month ban

How time flies...So it was more like sit in the corner wearing your dunce hat then you're free to go about you adversarial ways :-(

Simple answer is that you never served, otherwise I would thank you for your service.
I'm basically here to learn about big city LCN as I'm a small town guy. Fair enough?

Thanks Mikey! It’s good to be back!

This is what I could find on Grasso, seems he’s a nephew of Angelo Bruno and has a decent criminal history over the last 40 years

In February of 2000, Grasso was indicted on mail fraud,
wire fraud and several hundred counts of money laundering in

Here’s an article that mentions Grasso

Lawyer defends right to defend. Santaguida rebuts government claims he has mob conflict.
September 8, 2000

by Kitty Caparella
Philadelphia Daily News Staff Writer

Defense attorney Joseph Santaguida has asked a federal judge to dismiss government charges that could bar him from representing jailed mob underboss Steven Mazzone.

Last month, federal prosecutors cited five conflicts of interest in trying to disqualify Santaguida from representing Mazzone, the mob's No. 2 man.

In one allegation, the government cited an intercepted Aug. 22, 1995, telephone call in which onetime mob boss Ralph Natale boasted to Mazzone that he only made one phone call and a debt involving Santaguida and his son was resolved in a week.

Santaguida disputed that account as "false."

In a 22-page response filed last week, Santaguida submitted 12 pages of documents that showed he negotiated with real-estate mogul Michael Grasso on behalf of his son, Rocco Santaguida, for four months after Natale allegedly called Grasso to resolve the matter.

"Mr. Grasso has no recollection of any attempt by Mr. Natale to collect a debt," Santaguida added. Natale is cooperating with the government.

This conflict and four others, prosecutors have argued, could lead to an indictment, or at least put Santaguida's license to practice law in jeopardy.

U.S. District Judge Herbert J. Hutton has not issued an opinion.

Santaguida, however, challenged the government's facts and their view of specific incidents.

Santaguida submitted copies of five documents that showed his September though December negotiations, regarding Rocco's disputed real-estate commissions, with Grasso. They included:

A Sept. 13, 1995, memorandum to his file outlining Rocco's disputed commissions; an Oct. 9, 1995, counter-proposal to Grasso; Grasso's Oct. 17, 1995, response; a Nov. 22, 1995, counter-proposal from Santaguida, and a Dec. 7, 1995, general release signed by his son.

Rocco Santaguida, a real-estate salesman, initially was seeking $104,171.19 in rental commissions from Grasso's firm, U.S. Realty, but settled for $45,712.73.

"Perhaps, it is Mr. Natale who had sinister intentions; he obviously was not truthful."

Santaguida admitted that he asked several friends, including attorney Nicholas Nastasi, to help him resolve the issue.

"I don't know if Mr. Natale was present," he said.

The government also charged that Santaguida, jailed mob boss Joey Merlino's longtime attorney, had "divided loyalties" and could not properly represent Mazzone.

But Santaguida pointed out that Edwin Jacobs Jr. is Merlino's attorney of record, and Santaguida is representing Mazzone, who doesn't believe the government's allegations.

Santaguida said no conflict existed between Merlino or Mazzone, because both deny committing any of the crimes alleged in the upcoming murder-racketeering trial.

Mazzone's "choice of counsel is me and he is not willing to compromise this right," said Santaguida.

Another issue was Santaguida's visit to jailed mobster Gaeton Scafidi, shortly before he agreed to cooperate. Santaguida said he visited Scafidi "after he asked me to do so."

Before the visit, Santaguida said he called assistant U.S. Attorney Barry Gross because "I did not want to engage in potentially problematic behavior if Mr. Scafidi was cooperating." Gross did not state Scafidi was a government witness, and "spoke as if he did not care if I visited Mr. Scafidi," Santaguida said.

Regarding a March 1997 joint birthday party for Natale and Merlino, Santaguida said he was a guest.

To suggest that he could be a witness to those in attendance was "nonsensical," he said.

The government knew through surveillance or other law enforcement techniques who attended.

Thanks lou appreciate the info..so what i gather is a longtime white collar associate.. wonder if hes still alive and or active? I think i read the philly fam is big in the property flipping and fringe mortgage industry so if he is hed likely still be involved

So Col Reb is banned forever for insulting the wrong person, but Lou, who called me a pedophile and made derogatory sex jokes about me, and other things over a a period of several months is back. He'll be saying I molest children, or should perform oral sex on men, and take orders from my husband but he is a good guy!!! Col Reb is gone for good, rightfully, but this creep has no business being back IMO.

This is acceptable to Turnbull and Geoff:

""Your a bi polar whore, who should only be allowed to open its mouth when cock is being placed in it or your asking “whites or colors first daddy”

Jace,

I haven’t done anything since returning from my one bimonthly ban except post articles that will hopefully lead to discussion regarding the mob
You on the other hand are just attempting to stir up trouble and complaining and crying cause you want someone banned and want to tattle on them
Realistically you should now be banned for the trouble your trying to stir up and the fact your trying to highjack this thread


Let’s get back on topic....

What a fraud and BS artist. Notice you don't deny what you said. You can't, it's here for everyone to see.


"crying cause you want someone banned and want to tattle on them"


Huh???

This Michael Grasso seems to still be around and continuously active from the 60s into the present day...
