The State Of The Mob In Chicago: Winds Of Change Blowing In Windy City “Outfit,” Solly D, Jimmy I Preparing For Syndicate’s FutureJanuary 7, 2023 — The Chicago mafia landscape is on the verge of a transition period in 2023 and the old-school Outfit bosses are taking the necessary precautions, preparing for their younger, more polished successors to lead the historic crime family into the future, sources on both sides of the law tell Gangster Report. Seasoned Outfit shot caller Salvatore (Solly D) DeLaurentis has been the boss of the Chicago mob for several years now, but plays no role in day-to-day affairs, sources say. Instead, according to these sources, the 84-year old “Solly D” defers to his alleged underboss James (Jimmy I) Inendino, 80, and reputed street boss Albie (The Falcon) Vena, 74 and gives them autonomy in most leadership decisions.

If it's true that Sally Cards heads a faction with a couple of dozen soldiers in their 40s and 50s, and Fratto oversees his own "youth" faction, then we are looking at an organization that has been inducting a lot of guys in the past 10-15 years. It literally goes against everything we've been led to believe about the Chicago Outfit. I don't believe they are anywhere near their former glory, but reports of their demise might have been exaggerated. This is the exact reason you have only had hardly any made guys flip in the history of the outfit. There are plenty of guys right now who are made today and in years past that aren't even on any FBI Charts you can find online at the moment.

I know who you're referring to but won't say his name since it's unconfirmed and wasn't originally shared here and his name has never been mentioned on the forum or publically linked to the Outfit or Outlaws. This was shared privately to someone and I don't know if that someone was given permission to share it else where. What I will say is it was never said he's the new go between between the Outfit and Outlaws

there has been a lot of discussion on this forum about current state of the OUTFIT going into 2023. the following is breakdown of the alleged 4 remaining street crews. i will make no attempt to prove structure or overall leadership of these crews.
note: as mentioned above i alleged the presence of 4 street crews. there still is debate if the chicago heights crew exists or if at some point in the early to mid 1990's the crews territory and membership was brought under control of the 26th street crew/ southside. i am of the belief that under the leadership of john monteleone any and all remnants of the chicago heights crew came under the 26th street/ south side crew. also in 2005 family secrets trial both marcello brothers were identified as members of the melrose park crew. melrose park operated as crew separate from cicero i believe at one time being led by sam carlisi in 1980's and then james marcello in 1990's up until his imprisonment. anthony zizzo became crew boss up until his 2006 murder/disappearance. i am of the belief that melrose park no longer exists as a separate crew, any and all remnants would now fall under the cicero crew. finally there exists the possibility that todays OUTFIT consists of 2 large crews CICERO AND GRAND AVENUE with all remaining members and associates falling in line under the 2. -thoughts on all the above would be appreciated and judgement free...unless totally ridiculous.
note: names in bold are best guess MADE MEMBERS/SOLDIERS. will not define capos/crew leaders.
elmwood park crew 1.JOSEPH ANDRIACCHI 2.JOSEPH DIFRONZO 3.ROBERT ABBINANTI 4.RUDOLPH C. FRATTO 5.ANTHONY R. DOTE 6.carl dote (associate)-brother to anthony. 7.william daddono jr. (associate)-brother in law to fratto. 8.william degironemo (associate)-once arrested with fratto. 9.gino cassano (associate)-brother to angelo,vito and dominick. 10.gioacchino galione (associate)-arrested with gino cassano 2021 as part of extortion scheme. 11.alphonse mitria (associate) 12.anthony buttitta (associate) 13.dominic buttitta (associate)
-5 MADE MEMBERS/SOLDIERS with 8 associates. i am not sure who cassano,mitria and the buttittas would report to if still criminally active.
grand avenue crew 1.ALBERT VENA 2.CHRIS SPINA 3.ROBERT DOMINIC 4.JOHN MATASSA JR.-continuing debate over what crew if any he belongs to. other possibility would be cicero but can find no proof of this. matassa jr. was at some point the crew leader of old north side/rush street crew. the north side/rush street crew was absorbed into grand avenue to the best of my knowledge in the 1990's. there also exists the possibility that matassa jr. operates across all crews similar to anthony ortenzi. this may be where the unproven claims of him being consigliere may arise from. 5.ROBERT PANOZZO (Imprisoned) 6.robert urbinati (associate)-former member on centracchio crew. 7.bruce principato (associate) 8.david perez (associate)-one time associate of deceased charles russell. 9.frank obrochta (associate) 10.louis capuzi (associate) 11.brian david (associate) 12.fred pordyla (associate)-possibly deceased?
-5 MADE MEMBERS/SOLDIERS with 4 currently on the street. principato,perez,obrochta,capuzi and davis all have past arrests for burglary/robbery.7 associates.
cicero crew 1.SALVATORE DELAURENTIS 2.JAMES INENDINO 3.DINO MARINO 4.SALVATORE CATAUDELLA 5.ROBERT BELLAVIA 6.EMIL SCHULLO 7.MICHAEL SPANO SR. 8.michael spano jr. (associate)-son of sr. 9.michael marcello (associate)-brother to james and currently imprisoned. 10.vito r. scavo (associate) 11.william didomenico (associate) 12.natale s. saraceno (associate) 13.dino vitalo (associate) 14.john amabile (associate) 15.michael davis (associate) 16.paul carparelli (associate) 17.dominic poeta (associate) 18.casey szaflarski (associate)
-7 MADE MEMBERS/SOLDIERS with 11 associates.
26th street/south side crew 1.FRANK CARUSO 2.NICHOLAS FERRIOLA 3.NICHOLAS GUZZINO 4.bruno caruso (associate)-brother to frank. 5.leo caruso (associate)-cousin to frank and bruno. 6.william pacella (associate) 7.arthur nuzzo (associate)-son of sam nuzzo sr. 8.sam nuzzo jr. (associate)-son of sam sr. and brother to arthur.
-3 MADE MEMBERS/SOLDIERS with 5 associates.
-total possible members and associates... MADE MEMBERS/SOLDIERS=20 associates=31
-all of this is an attempt at total numbers. i am under no illusions that there are more active members/associates in chicago today. i do not live in illinois or chicago so i am not able to obtain info direct from the street via bars and neighborhood gossip. some sources used to find these names include...indictments,arrest records,chicago tribune and suntimes articles,laborers OC reports,abc7 local chicago online articles,reddit,american newspost and current/past contributions on this website/forum.
