It seems like Philly still has a handful of serious and level-headed people out on the street. Among those that meet this description (in my eyes) are: Mazzone, Lancelotti, Staino, Lucibello and Nicodemo. What are your thoughts on these guys leading the charge into the future?

from what I've read it seems like the philly mob is like a biker gang

a bunch of barroom brawlers having brass knuckle fights in the alley

they might alright if they prevent merlino from returning

If steve is running the show and joey stay out of it the family will be fine.But Steve need to make a few men loyal to him if he have not already.

From now on, nothing goes down unless I'm involved. No blackjack no dope deals, no nothing. A nickel bag gets sold in the park, I want in. You guys got fat while everybody starved on the street. Now it's my turn.

Sorry - my mistake about Nicodemo.

I don't think Lancellotti would qualify as a "barroom brawler." The guy is either lucky as fuck or extremely adept.

Not sure if I would say Philly is on solid ground. Due to their respectively small sizes, if any non-New York family gets hit with any major indictments the family could be crippled. All it takes is one more push to send some of those families off the brink and into extinction. Family Secrets almost did it to Chicago and the DeCavalcantes were almost killed off with the rash of arrests they suffered in the early part of the 2000's.

Narducci and changlini are back on the street to right? Those r 2 stand up guys that sill hold some weight.

Far from it. The boss wants to be a movie star, he cant control his acting boss. The last three unsolved hits in philly will become magically solved if one guy flips. Lucibello is in the can. Staino is on his way. Nicodemo is the opposite of level headed. He likes to get high and go off half cocked like our other philly heavy hitter friend dicknose. if he flips he brings down the entire ligambi admin, some merlino guys. The heaviest guys now are the scarfo guys. Narducci, Grande, Chang, and mazzone too. The only hooked in philly guy i know doesnt have many good things to say about lance but i know opinions can be distorted.

Family Secrets was not even close to put Chicago into extinction. The FBI over hyped it to make it sound more important. The only huge loss was Marcello.

One thing Philadelphia has going for it is the relatively young ages of it's members. Also, it does have surprising resilience when you consider all the internal fighting and murders, indictments, and rats over the past three decades. On solid ground? Don't know about that. But they're still one of the handful of smaller families outside New York that are still around and will be for at least a while longer.

Mods should mind their own business and leave poster's profile signatures alone.

I think PHilly is doing well. They got alot of guys who are gonna be out within 5. STaino, lucibello, Angelina, Fazzini, Esposito. Furthermore, depending on this next trial, Ligambi and Borgesi could be out soon. With stand up guys like Johnny Ciancaglini and Mazzone on top and old school guys like Licata around the family is far from extinct. I think its easy to forget the fact that Ligambi ran the family from 99 to 2011 without getting indicted, and most likely grew the family a little bit (1 in 2005, 7 in 2007, probably more) and most importantly, stabalized the organization. Its easy to get clouded by the fact him and the org have been UI since 2011, but there was a period of quiet before then.

Exactly. Plus all the Scarfo guys getting out and the new guys waiting to be made (that Ligambi refused to). They have solid number of tough street guys and are quite resilient.

As I said a few days ago in the Mousie thread Philly is just fine. There are a lot of younger up and coming guys and guys under the radar out there. I'm not going to out anybody who's name hasn't been mentioned on here yet however. Philly people on here probably know many of the guys I'm speaking of.

Right Cheech remember the old ''Racketteering Lite'' like their attorney's said.If you look at canalichio's sentence though he got 137 mths.85% of that is like 116 mths.He's got 26 mths already in,now your down to 90 mths. which means if things go smooth he can be out in 7 and a half yrs. which him being a 3rd time offender isn't bad at all.

I doubt it,if my math is right 7 and a half yrs. should not be a big deal,he will barely be 50 when he gets out.

If and when he gets out - if any of these guys flip they are all going to be in more trouble and looking at more time - Nico and Dame especially. The pressure is on now and for a long time. Does Staino think twice ? He hasn't done any time ever although think unlikely he'll turn. Believe Philly is still strong - deep deep bench in south Philly - maybe not all made yet but plenty of candidates - just the nature of how things are down there

Does anyone know when we will know if Nicodemo flipped ?

I herd the court date somewhere on a post but can't remember it,but that would not tell if he flipped would it ?

Serp he has a final Trial Readiness Conference tuesday on the 24th and if everyone is ready the actual trial is scheduled to start in May, 05/12/2014 to be exact.

He hasn't flipped and i don't think he will.

Actually according to the court docket file it looks like the defense was granted several continuance's for "Further Investigation" of the case. But it really hasn't been that long yet. I think it was last december he was originally arrested.

Also Serp, Scarfo Jr's bank fraud case will start sometime in october. Personally i think he's going down.

Yea thanks for that ,but i am in the know about that,I called Johnny to see what happened,his home phone is disconnected,and cel is set on two rings and no voicemail,
I am guessing he don't feel like talking,looks like five ,and he has never done time before,he is in him mid50s i guess, not a good time to start.

I'm curious what Sal Pelullo will do. Plead out? Go to trial? Rat on Nicky jr? Even though i think if he was going to rat he probably would of done it already.
