Joey is not in Boca any longer, the neighbors were complaining so much to the owner of the house that Merlino was asked to find another place. Supposedly, he was throwing parties into the early morning hours and the citizens of Boca caught wind that Joey was stating there and wanted him out.

Not Merlino's house in Boca, it was owned by a guy that Joey knew. He would have had some explaining to do if he got out of prison and bought a $750k house while on federal supervision. He is not living there any longer as the owner asked him to leave.

"Faffy" will not sit for Merlino ,He may be passive for Ligambi.
Just think were Joe and Joey were when Faffy got pinched .

Faffy had just got done sticking to Chuckie .And if not for Phil he(Faffy) would have been UB .
And Ligambi was gofer ,Joey was, well what he is .

I think the current guys would be on top by virtue of being on the streets all the time the Scarfo guys were in jail. I also tend to think the Scarfo guys either would have their own thing going amongst themselves or they would be treated with deference given the fact they stood up and did their bit. They deserve that at least inu opinion. Then again it's the twenty-teens.

In other words, in a perfect underworld the Scarfo guys would have a pretty large degree of autonomy to do their thing as long as they give a taste to the current alleged regime. These guys upheld their code (which seems kinda crazy to me given what was going on at the time). These guys, right or wrong, believed in something and took their time like men- a rarity there's days not only in their world, but the world in general.

When I say believed in something I'm not condoning or agreeing with their lifestyle or life path (although I think it's pretty solid that they went against the tyranny and hypocrisy of the straight and narrow and had the balls to defy and expose it while making pretty good coin), but o think there's something to be said about a guy who sticks to an oath and takes responsibility for his actions. That's the way I was schooled at least. I mean, who wouldn't break the law for pontentially good money if one knew they could just rat and pass the buck to an accomplice just to save their skin? If you get caught doing something you shouldn't be, why be salty and rat on somebody just as guilty or bad as you? I get caught doing some sideways shit all the time in my daily life. Instead of making excuses and offering an insincere apology, I own up to it and try (unsuccessfully usually) to not do it again. Might be apples to oranges but the principle is the same.

That's Merlino's house?! It looks a little ugly in my opinion from the outside but that's a castle. It's huge. And I would say scarfo. If he was out right now he'd be boss. Scarfo was actually pretty careful when it came to staying off the radar. Some of his tactics were actually really good. But he just killed too many people which put them in the press too much.
