That's the absolute best way to put it. If he's out, then good for him. But if he's earning, then he's going back to prison one day because that's just the way it is. Time, and time alone, will tell. But whoever posted that Joey and his crew "have fifteen years left in them," or something like that, is only wishing prison on them.

The Feds have a hard-on for Joey Merlino that will never go away because he beat them on the most serious charges twelve or thirteen years ago. They're never going to give him any peace. Ever. And if you don't understand that, then you know nothing about the nature of the government and the gestapo tactics that they're capable of using when it suits them.

So if you know the guy, or you care about the guy, or whatever, then you should hope that he really did give up the life. Because if he didn't, he's going back to prison one day. It's just a matter of time.

And you guys know that I don't even follow Philly. I'm speaking in general terms because I've seen it happen a hundred times in New York. But I honestly believe that Joey Merlino still being in the game is much more important to his online groupies than it is to him. Give the guy a break.

You think no one reads these sites? The more the Feds see a bunch of dopey kids fawning all over this guy, the more they want to put him away. Fact.

His lawyers have had to have told him hundreds of times how much the government has not given up on him. I'm sure he's fairly intelligent one way or the other. He's made it this far. His ego can't be so big that he thinks he's invincible but he's probably the ONLY one who knows what his plans/intentions are. Whatever they are though, congregating with 3 known felons while on supervised parole doesn't make him look like he's given it up. But who knows better than him, not me.

Hey Pizzaboy why you act like a prick on here? everything you say has a smartass remark, you dont want to fight on here but yet your throwing shots, and you ll be the first the get the Administrator to get someone kicked off, you BEEFER..
Second, where would you get that my comment of "them having another 15yrs" that i wanna see them go to prison, and STFU with your whole groupie thing, if i do recall were all on a board discussing organized crime, so im sure with the 20'000 comments you have, IT would make you look like a cheerleader or groupie or whatever word you prefer.
Take it easy pal..

Haha yeah PB is a instigator. Why, because he uses non biased judgement. Never mind me. We ALL have opinions. Getting back to the subject at hand. If Joe has been staying straight he shouldn't have much to worry about but, and this only MY opinion, if someone has something on him that he's never been charged with he might end up in hot water again . Time will tell and nobody can beat father time.

That's all I'm trying to say. If he's out of the life, then he should be okay. Unless someone flips and puts an ancient murder on him. That's a different story all together.

JoeSlim - that was not very nice. He caught you using a somewhat unique phrase and commented on it. What I find strange is that the IP address is the EXACT SAME as that of the other member who used that same expression. The EXACT SAME.

You're here one week, under strange conditions and you break all decorum on the board with flaming a long standing member?? You owe pizzaboy an apology.

That's exactly what I interpreted it to be. It's common sense. If you haven't don't anything wrong, you shouldn't have anything to worry about...unless you did something wrong 15 years ago and now there's more evidence etc.

That's not necessary. I just don't understand why people come back here with multiple usernames. Some day the psychology is going to catch up with the technology. And it's going to come out that people who have more than one personality online are just as fucking crazy as people who have more than one personality in real life grin grin.

More on Fiore, Gagliano and Carbone

Federal agents quietly arrested three Florida men on the periphery of the Biogenesis doping scandal, hitting Gary Lee Jones, Frank Fiore and Anthony Carbone with an assortment of felony charges, according to court documents filed in the Southern District of Florida two weeks ago.

In contrast to last week’s splashy arrests of Biogenesis founder Tony Bosch and six of his associates, including Alex Rodriguez’s cousin and former drug supplier, no news conferences accompanied the arrests of Jones, Fiore and Carbone.

Jones, who sold Biogenesis documents to MLB investigators last year, is accused of trying to sell an AK-47 machine gun to an undercover agent from the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s office in February, according to a criminal complaint filed July 28. The same document, now unsealed, accuses Fiore and Carbone of conspiring to distribute a panoply of illegal drugs, including the hardcore steroids testosterone ethanate, testosterone propionate, and Deca Durabolin, along with cocaine, Xanax, and thousands of Viagra and Cialis pills.

The complaint also describes the men of scheming to distribute counterfeit drugs and currency. Fiore is alleged to have asked an undercover officer to break his brother-in-law’s leg and steal his money and jewelry.

A prosecution notice filed Monday states Fiore shares two corporate bank accounts with Joseph Gagliano, the name of a New Orleans man with reported ties to organized crime.

Fiore’s attorney, Russell Williams, said Fiore once had a legitimate business relationship with Gagliano but that the accounts they co-signed were inactive. (An attorney for Gagliano, who was recently jailed on weapons charges, did not respond to requests for comment.)

Jones became a figure in baseball's latest steroid scandal in April, when investigators from Major League Baseball paid him $125,000 for documents that allegedly linked Rodriguez, Ryan Braun and other MLB players to Biogenesis, the now-defunct anti-aging clinic near Miami. Major League Baseball suspended 14 professional baseball players, including Rodriguez for an entire season, following a lengthy investigation.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Miami hauled in the seven Biogenesis figures on conspiracy charges last week and is expected to name additional defendants in the near future.

Carbone, who owns a tanning salon in the Miami area, also figured in the Biogenesis case. The salon employed Porter Fischer, the man who removed several boxes of medical records from Bosch’s clinic that would become key to the Biogenesis investigations. The documents then disappeared from Fisher's vehicle on March 24, 2013, during an alleged break-in that occurred while he was parked outside of Carbone’s tanning salon in Boca Raton.


While Reginald St. Fleur was charged with the break-in, St. Fleur's lawyer told the Daily News last December that his client was not guilty, and suggested that Fisher might have staged the break-in after negotiations with MLB officials to sell the documents for $125,000 had broken down several days before.

Fischer denied having helped orchestrate the break-in and claimed it was his intent to deliver the Biogenesis records to a Florida Department of Health official when he stopped by Boca Tanning to try out a new spray-on product.

As the Daily News previously reported, the clinic records had become worthless to Fischer by March 21, 2013, when he received a letter from baseball's lawyers forbidding him from transmitting or destroying the papers because they would be used as evidence in the lawsuit MLB filed against Bosch and several associates the following day in Florida state court.

The News reported last April that the Anthony Carbone and his brother, Peter, contacted MLB officials and players to see if they would be interested in bidding on Biogenesis documents. ESPN reported last year that Peter Carbone had sold Biogenesis documents to Rodriguez's representatives earlier in the year.

The new criminal complaint describes how a cooperating subject helped two criminal investigators from the Food and Drug Administration and narcotics agents from Palm Beach to penetrate a hub of drug dealing and other shady business surrounding Havana Nights Cigar Bar and Lounge in Boca Raton, Florida, a business led by Fiore and Carbone.

The cooperating subject — who faces tax fraud charges in Virginia — met with Fiore to discuss distributing counterfeit pharmaceuticals, Fiore allegedly introduced the cooperating subject to Jones, who soon produced a sample of 20 tablets of what "appeared to be counterfeit Xanax."

All three men are in custody in Florida. Attorneys for Jones and Carbone did not respond to requests for comment on Monday.

Miklo, I'm not sure about Frank Fiore being connected but this is not his first run in with the feds. Several years ago he was investigated for a credit card/identity theft scam in Boca as well. I don't know if he is related to Nick or Tom who are associated with the Bonanno's. He is facing a ton of time, it will be interesting to see how it all plays out.

Pizzaboy is a tremendous asset to this site, his knowledge of the bronx guys is unparalleled. I agree, a lot of internet kids come on here and wish they can be thrown back to 1958 in east new york brooklyn.
Merlino doesnt need crime, he did 11 years and doesnt want to go back. His name alone will make him money. In fact, the kids that come on this board can probably pay keep him rich if merlino goes into whatever business.
I can imagine merlino charging a g-note to take a picture with him and some of the guys on this board blowing out their credit cards to do it.

Thanks, Belmont. I'm just older than most of you guys. That's all. Intelligence and experience are two entirely different things. I'll be 55 in a few weeks. You pick up a thing or two. It's no biggie. But thanks again, buddy blush.

lol lol lol

I keep picturing those chicks in the more "upscale" strip joints with the 50 inch knockers, and the lonely saps who pay fifty bucks to take a picture of their bald heads in between their boobs.

I really crack myself up sometimes grin grin.

You guys aint old yet. You know you are getting old when you have a hard time pissing and then waking up 2-3 times during the night to piss. Have fun with that. That starts in the late 40's by the way.

But they have nice teeth and they tan very well, so they have that going for them.
