IMO, the most intriguing guy in Pittsburgh was Bobby Iannelli and how he took over Tony Grosso's numbers operation with Sal & Junior Williams and was as big as Sonny Ciancutti yet he wanted no part of being made into LCN. Grosso was never touched because of his deep & extensive political connections and relationships with the Democratic Ward bosses.

Bugsy, do you know what became of "Eggy" Prosdocimo and his crew of killers? Are they all gone as well?

Bugsy,did you know that Eggy actually got a Bachelors in Psychology and a Masters in Education while he was locked up at "The Wall" (Western)? Talk about a waste of taxpayers money. The guy is never going to get out and is a sadistic piece of garbage.
The only good thing I can say about him is that he wasn't as bad as Gesuale.
I guess it could be worse,could you imagine him getting a PhD?
CO: "Doctor Prodoscimo,could you please bend over and spread em?"
I didn't mean to go off on a rant,but I figured you might enjoy the story. We definitely had our share of characters here.

Thanks...I was aware of him being in prison, but was unaware of what became of the rest of his crew. I have heard that there were some real cold blooded sociopaths in that group...esp. the long gone Codfish Bricker.

Yeah, I had heard about Eggy getting educated in the can. I ran into Mike Genovese (the son) and we ended up going to the Monterrey Bay Fish Grotto with our wives over last Christmas and he was telling me the same thing. Turns out that after dinner, we went to the private bar and Charles Porter Jr., the attorney, was at the bar having some drinks as well. Mike and Charles Jr used to be pretty tight friends until Porter's father Chucky decided to feed the Feds with information. Anyhow, thought it was worth mentioning.

Bugsy - do you have any more stories form your time with Mike(the son)? Whatever became of his fight with his dads widow over the property, last I heard he got nothing.
I actually corresponded with one of Mike(The Boss) grandsons from California from Mikes first wife, met him on Ancestry.com LOL no lie.
