plea to gambling, guidelines are up to 24 months, judge will sentence him to whatever he feels is right...the unofficial plea the prosecutor and defense attorneys have agreed on is anywhere between 10 months to 20 months, depending on the source..judge can do whatever he wants, in most cases judge takes the deal the sides made into heavy consideration, but you never know, he could sentence the full 24 months, or even more if he wants to..but yes,the consense is the please is 10 to 20 months

Another W
For Merlino
24 months is like weekend for him.

He will still earn,
Nothing will be disrupted

The feds were.hoping to take him off the street for 15 years.

I seriously doubt he would admit guilt if they could use the plea against him in a RICO case. He probably has assurances

Ah the good old Life on Installment plan. Yes we know Skinny Joey should be in prison with LWoP. But this most recent case is A joke, if you win fair and square you deserve your freedom.

Bensonhurst, do not speculate or assume he will earn because you know who may be watching this thread too wondering how you have any insight into Joeys situation when he goes to jail.

He will have spent almost half of his adult life in prison. His lifestyle must be really worth it to him.


I invoke my right under the 5th amendment of the United States constitution and decline to answer the question.

He has probably lived better than you in one weekend than you have your entire life. You sit on a mob forum cracking corny jokes that nobody has ever laughed at all day long.

Your lifestyle must really be worth it!

Flaming is making rude and/or insulting messages designed to make the recipient answer in the same manner. In other words, it's a way somebody looks to start a fight on the internet. Since flaming inevitably disrupts the GBB we don't allow it here at all.

Mayo face on twitter saying there rounding up the bookies for a federal grand jury. Ricos coming. Think the board overlooked like 6months ago mayo was saying another member had flipped and was working with the feds. Think he was fed that but didnt really no if it was true. Then we find out that guy was recording every drug deal in south jersey.

There’s a grand Jury sitting in Philadelphia right now. Bookies paying street tax being called to testify. Mob Leadership going to be indicted

A March 1986 raid on DiBernardo's office seized alleged "child pornography and financial records." As "a result of the Postal Inspectors seizures [a federal prosecutor] is attempting to indict DiBernardo on child pornography violations" according to an FBI memo dated May 20, 1986.

Sounds like maybe the Feds went along w/the plea deal more or less to keep Joey tied up until they can drop this hammer down on him.....guys like Borgesi who already did a ton of time must be heated.

If they're bringing in the bookies we're going to see some guys who skated under the radar get caught up....the Wags brothers, Lancelotti and his nephew, etc.

Feds let Joey plead to house arrest ,cause they can use the guilty plea as a Rico predicate. Means the feds just need one more proven rico predicate to convict him of racketeering. Also beleive they want him out on the street because guys are wearing wires.
