Thats the case of i was thinking of with the Italians wanting Conte. Sounds like he used the same defense Gambino did, that he already served time for the same charges in the usa.

Wait, so Cefalu was a Soldier in Conte's crew?

Were all the Gambino Sicilians in the same crew before Cefalu took over . . . As in Conte, Cefalu, Cali, John Gambino, Rosario Spatola?

I was under the impression that John Gambino/Rosario Spatola/Frank Cali were part of the Cherry Hill Boys that Don Carlo imported. Were Conte/Cefalu in the same crew or did they have a separate one with the sole connection being that they are all Zips.

Different crews i think. As far as Cali, i think he was passed around like a hot commodity. But yea, as ive heard it Conte gave Cefalu his wings

Thanks for all the responses.

So, is Nicholas Mitarotonda still a skip and on the street?

And does anyone know who’s running Vinny Atuso and Alphonse Truccio’s crews down in Florida while they’re away?

And finally you say Sal Franco isn’t a skip anymore? Is anyone running his crew or have the guys been given to the Blonde or Gus or someone?

Just FYI, being based in London, I’ve decided to just really try to really focus on learning about one family at the moment – and I’ve always found the Gambinos the most interesting. Just trying to build an accurate picture of who’s running what and where etc.

Mukremin’s chart seems to be slightly out of date compared to what guys are saying here.

Also, are Jackie Nose's crew based out of Brooklyn or Manhattan? And where are Fat Lou's crew (looked after by Louis DeVito) based?

Mitarotonda was released in 2011 and is on the street. Since no new information has come out, I tend to believe that he still runs his crew.

Johnny, a couple of new names has surfaced as being part of the Gambino Family´s hierarchy: Joe "Oxie" Marino and Pasquale Marsala. They may have been acting captains/official captains at some point a couple of years ago, or may still be. Perhaps Ivey knows more about these guys? Marino is 80 year old member who was active in Manhattan´s Little Italy area back in the day. No info can be found on Marsala, I´m afraid.

Sal Franco is still a captain. I think he's into trucking and construction

There's only one consigliere - Bobby Vernace. Jo Jo Corozzo doesn't have that position anymore.

Lenny DiMaria was indicted as a captain. So he either has his own crew or at least is co-captain with Nick Corozzo. It's probably the first one.

Louis DeVito was identified as a captain in that same article Joe Marino and Pasquale Marsala were. But since it was just an article, it's not 100%.

It's certainly possible new captains have been made. I mean Big Lou as been away for a long time and he was a strong Gotti ally. Danny Marino will get his crew back when he gets out, but I will say I've never heard of Joe Marino. Are they related? Or Pasquale Marsala

I wouldn't be surprised at all if DeVito officially took over Varllario's crew. Joe Marino and Pasquale may have done the same for some other captains on that list. But all we have is that one article so we'll have to see. I've also wondered if Joe Marino is related to Danny Marino. Not sure.

I don't think we'll officially know until some sort of gangland article comes out or an FBI indictment, which could be anywhere from next month to ten years. Guys get pinched all the time, but depending on the captian some guys can go years without getting caught. Big Lou's crew is in Bensonhurst I think. Sonny Ciccone's is too right on the waterfront, but from what I've heard he's kept it and will get it back when he gets out next month. I think gamms would know but he hasn't been on here in awhile

Its vinny Artuso. Not atuso. Is his son still in coleman or whereevs? Hes actually from the bx. Danny Marino is not a queens guy at all. He lives in Dyke Heights. Al Trucchio lives in HB. Not fla. Well hes in the can now but.... His family stays in HB. Like a block from Frank Rocs house. Mike roc lives on the other side... Think its his parents old house actually. Right on the water tho. Overlooking the inlet full of polution, ppl running their boats thru there at top speed like jack asses, and hookers coming and going from the motel on crossbay... Tommy Sneakers is not a jersey/westchester guy. OZP all the wayyyy. 163rd st. Lives in HB, his son lives in Westbury. Funzi is a BX guy too. Hes with zeke squitieri. Jackie nose lives in ft lee or englewood. Bergen County.... Full of a bunch of wanna be hoods! They think theyre all from wny or north berg. Tools. Not mention those douchebags in seacaucus. Fuckin assholes and their outlet stores. Cant make up their mind what county their from. Fuck em in the ear!

Im not talking about gotti, the guy who proposed him was conte. Dont see the reason for your post....,,,

Recently heard cali came up under Cefalu actually, to correct myself.

Is Sal Locascio still active in New York, sure I read on here not too long back that he was semi-retired? He's only in his 50's but obviously he made a ton of money through fraud.

Also, when was he promoted to capo? When he got out in 08?

Yes, Conte proposed him to Gotti. Conte didn't "give" Cefalu his wings. Try to use correct words next time and there will be no confusion. And concerning the 1990 induction ceremony, it was just a little fact since we're on the topic.

Skinny, don't get me wrong - Conte did get him made, but it was Gotti who gave him his wings. How can you argue about something like this? It does matter who pricked his finger when discussing about who inducted Cefalu. You don't need to say anything else, I'm done.

Mentioned this somewhere before, but anyone know what Conte's up to now? He's pretty ancient so potentially semi retired?

Its just Gamms said something somewhere about the Gambinos having an acting consigliere on the street. He didn't say who, just that it was pointless having Vernace in the role as he's behind bars.

Made me wonder if, given Conte's links to Cefalu and his status in the Family /immense experience, he may be in the role? Probs in a low key, stripped back, purely advisory kind of way given his age? But if Gamms is correct, I can't think of many better.

Just wondering if that's ever been mentioned /theorised anywhere?
