When you click on the link , you should have an icon on the top right hand of the screen that has the letters GR in a square box. It is located on the left side of the star icon. Click on the GR and a translate box will appear. Click on it and it will translate.
Let me know if it works for you.

This is the same article I posted earlier on Dec.13 at 01:12 PM. I had posted a translated copy.

James Dubro is quoted as saying in the article to which I’ve linked below that the underboss of the Buffalo Family would have had to approve the hit on Angelo Musitano (killed May 2017). This has knowledgeable readers like us confused because we know that Domenico Violi was heard saying on wiretaps in October/November 2017 that he had just become underboss.

Frank Bifulco comes right to my mind. Lately he has been staying in the Greater Buffalo area with a couple of trips to Rochester. Perhaps he was switched from Underboss to a Front Boss position to insulate Joe Todaro Jr. Would make sense, given that Bifulco is both well respected and feared, and was close to the Papalia family.

Bifulco May be indeed the front boss of the organization for Todaro. That wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest. Not sure what the purpose of him going to Rochester. Can’t imagine there is any activity or anything going on in that city. At least not in the last 20-25 years or so

From what I’ve heard, all hearsay, Buffalo has had a crew in Rochester for some time. That being said I’ve heard there were Bonannos and Gambinos in Rochester as well. One of the recent articles has Todaro saying something to the affect if you are not under Buffalo you need to pack your bags. (Anybody remember which article that was?) Anyway, can’t help it wonder if the other family members in Rochester had something to do with that... Of course could have been talking about the Hamilton crews and their many ties to other families too. It is all very interesting.

"The mobsters, the documents allege, were clear that Todaro held the reigns of power within the re-emergent Buffalo organization; the men said that nobody became a member without going through Todaro first. They said a mobster in the area was either under Todaro or they needed to pack their bags and leave."

Siderno boss Cosimo Commisso, also known as "The Quail", has been released ! The Godfather served a life sentence since 1998, but was acquitted this week for not having committed the fact by a Naples judge. I believe he was tied In the 80s to the Buffalo Family operating in Toronto and Hamilton.

The English-language Wikipedia article for Cosimo Commisso of Siderno confuses him with Cosimo Commisso of the Greater Toronto Area, who has ancestry from Siderno Marina di Gioiosa Ionica. The first Cosimo Commisso had no such ties to the Buffalo Family; the latter did.

The FBI knew Dom Violi was “well connected” to the Buffalo crime family going back to 2002 according to @mobinfiltrator.
