Thanks a Million Leroy.

Freddie seemed a likeable guy on the drag race circuit, its sad that Freddie had to get involved with DeMeo!
As always, in those pictures you put up the one of Anthony Senter behind that old guy spooked me the most.
Senter was the meaniest (after Roy) I think.

The shot of Henry and Joey together.......... I wonder if thats when they got busted for the Andrei Katz murder?
Those 2 did about 6 months in the can before Roy's lawyer got them off the charge.

Thanks again

Apparently one of Freddies favourite tricks was to get a buddy to drive his car around Canarsie whilst he (Freddie) was standing in the passenger seat with his bare butt out the window!!! LOL

He even had a pet monkey that he trained to pump gas and when his illegal dice game got busted he tried to take his monkey to court to testify on his behalf!!

The old man is Arthur Ruffels. Now retired, in the 1980s he was one of the key figures in law enforcement to bring down the DeMeo Crew. The picture is most likely from the 1980s when Senter was arrested.

Thanks for the id Edmund. I figured it was either a cop or his lawyer.

There's a photo of Richie DiNome in the hardcover version of Murder Machine, for what it's worth.

That area of Brooklyn, Flatbush, Canarsie where the crew terrorized, do no Italians live there now? Or do mafia still operate there?

Flatbush and East Flatbush is mostly a black neigborhood. immigrants from the West Indies - Carribeans, Jamaicans, etc. Canarsie's very mixed; Definitely still some italians there but it's not a stronghold/enclave. It's been Corrozo (Gambino) 'territory' - even though I think that crew all lives out on Long Island or somewhere else.

Full mugshot of Chris Rosenberg. Screenshot from a documentary.
I also have several semi-rare photos of Anthony "Nino" Gaggi, DeMeo's superior, if anyone is interested.

Gaggi arriving to court in 1984.


Arrested by the FBI for running an auto theft ring in 1954.
He was arrested in the middle of the night so that's why he looks tired.


Alternative 1984 mugshot without the sunglasses.


Surveillance photo, date unknown. Most probably early 1980s.

I get the same impression as you guys, but is there evidence Senter was meaner than Testa?

From what I've read Senter had more of a mean streak. He enjoyed the dismembering process a little too much. Also Albert demeo hated Anthony the most out of all of them which is saying a lot

Anthony was probably tougher with his fists but according to sources friends ran to Joey to sort out problems which suggests he was probably more organised.
Anthony suffered a punctured lung in a vicious knife fight which left him short of breath but he still refused to quit smoking.
Albert says his Dad paid for Anthony to see several doctors all of which said the same "quit smoking" - but he never did!

My favourite Anthony Senter story is the time that Roy took his son and his crew on a camping trip.
Joey and Anthony borrowed the Winnebago and went off and did a drive by shooting on a cow!!!!
A furious Roy made them show him where and he had to go and bung the farmer a couple of grand to stop him calling the cops!
LOL

Amazing how you never know who lives next door. Harvey "Chris" Rosenberg lived on my block in Brooklyn. He was approximately 5 years older than me. I was friends with his younger brothers. The block we lived on was 95% Jewish, not predominantly Italian like is written in Wikipedia.

I never knew this side of "Chris"! He was just a very normal person in his public life. When he was shot and had his jaw disfigured I was told he grew the beard to cover the injury from a car accident. No he didn't drive an IROC but he did have some cool cars in his short life. He drove a 1972 El Camino SS 454 with a 4 speed, a 1958 Corvette, an older silver Ferrari and a couple of motorcycles. One was a BSA and I think he also may have had a Triumph. I once saw him extinguish a carburetor fire in the Vette with his leather jacket,lol. He also had a friend with a cool 1965 GTO with tri-power. Chris was actually a real nice guy in my eyes. What a surprise when I stumbled on all this some 35-40 years later.
Also "Broadway Freddie DeName" was sort of a legend in Brooklyn. Rumor had it that the cops closed off Foster ave. in Brooklyn and let him run his dragster for a crowd and he even got to pull the chute! Reading the post about Freddie mooning people in Canarsie I had to laugh because I was also one of those people that rode around in Canarsie mooning people. It was all the rage back then,lol!

Here's a picture of Carlo Profeta, I had no idea he was once Roy's chauffer, and was a defendent in of the cases against Roy's crew. He's now an acting capo with the Luchese family, think he got caught in a huge gambling ring a few years ago.

And prior to that, Profeta worked for Paulie Vario.

Great story. Thanks for sharing Brooklyn. You hear so many guys on mob forums going on about how they knew this guy or that guy, in this case your story has a definite ring of truth IMO. Especially since you're not making any outlandish claims, just saying what you did and what you knew.

Its so easy to forget in these cases, knowing all we do about certain guys, that they like anyone else had family, friends and neighbours who had no inkling as to what was really going on beneath the surface.

Thanks again. Please keep posting. smile

Quote:
Wiseguy tries bait and switch
Posted: 2:01 AM, December 2, 2011

Tweet More Print A veteran New York mobster wants to meet with the fishes.

Carlo Profeta, an acting captain in the Lucchese crime family, says he wants to leave his life of crime behind to fish and commune with nature.

Profeta, 69, is scheduled to be sentenced on extortion charges next week. In a letter to the sentencing judge, his lawyer insists the wiseguy will turn over a new leaf after he’s released.

Profeta “wants to make a complete lifestyle change...and live a simple existence in upstate New York,” the lawyer, Joel Winograd, wrote yesterday. He's “hoping to perfect his skills as a fisherman on the banks of the Hudson River and to care for abused and unwanted animals, passions he has pursued since his youth.”

The ex-con also plans to look after his ailing, elderly mother, the lawyer said.

Profeta's facing up to 20 years behind bars, and Winograd asked the judge to consider sentencing him to a shorter term for using extortion to collect a gambling debt.

In their letter to the Judge Eric Vitaliano, Brooklyn federal prosecutors said Profeta has a long criminal history and poses a danger to the community.

They cited his past racketeering convictions, which includes threatening the operators of a fuel transportation company and a restaurant if they didn’t pay protection money to the Luchese family.

On another occasion, Profeta “used violent threats to force a different restaurant owner to pay a particular meat distributor,” Assistant US Attorney Rachel Nash wrote.
