Liggio I've told you before to read posts several times before you reply because your reading comprehension is the worst I've ever seen and once again you are replying to things that no one said.

I said guys with non Italian names but Italian heritage.

Kind of like Eugene Castelle and John Castellucci.


In France there are also 5 and half million people with Italian ancestry. Italian migration into what is today France has been going on for centuries.

Hair color, taste in music and geography skills aren’t requirements for getting made. The only thing that matters, or should, is blood. It’s a traditional ethnic criminal subculture: its identity is defined by its rules. The making ceremony is the most defining factor in LCN. The fact that this rule was broken with some guys doesn’t make it right, or common, but goes to show its increasing decadence.

I read and heard that too that’s why I won’t believe any of this until someone other than Scott “Per Sources” Burnstein confirms it.

Chances are Guilmette is a “high-ranking” associate, like Reynald Desjardin in his prime.

made men with non-Italian last names are extremely rare: Porter, Veasey, who else comes to mind…I don’t know if Adolph Williams was made, but if I remember correctly his last name was legally changed, he’s who I first thought of when I read of Guilmette. Was Angelesco ever recognized by his dad or has he always had that last name?

Stop pretending this has anything to do with where the Mafia stands today when guys with non Italian last names but Italian heritage were being made decades ago in their heyday. The weirdest shit sets you guys off lol



As I've mentioned previously, Dino's mom is Italian. She's an Izzi. So that's how he got in

He did. I remember reading a document that the family name was like DiLorenzo or D something. I can't remember

Any idea who the other Rhode Island guys are that were made along with him? If there are any, not so sure about Scott's accuracy sometimes.

saying that bernstein’s reporting “isn’t always accurate” is a kind understatement

won’t believe dino is made until a better source comes along and confirms it
