Allie Boy had the title but I think that the capos doesn't want to repeat the snake situation and prefer to have a free on the street boss.
Andrew Russo is too old,nothing rising stars?

While this is true, at their peak they were making money hand over fist with the gasoline scam among other businesses and rackets they had I’m sure.

The trouble was that after the third colombo war more orena supporters becomed independent and stop pay money to the family,russo tried to take them back to the family plus the colombos are less respected because a Gambino stabbed a colombo wiseguy an for dont retaliate the colombo asked 100K - 150K that anyway wasnt paid.
The other side is that the colombo was always confinated in Brooklyn.
Anyway better the colombos that philly or the decavalcante.

there is anything to rebuild in the family ? or just surviving the modern age ?
in terms of recruiting i guess people will always prefer to join the small and low-key family's
the westside will only take the best guys so it's not easy to join them at all
the gambino's are too

I bet there is maybe 60 guys active making $ with buttons. There is a reason the Colombos have constantly been talked about being absorbed by other borgatas.

Killing Cutulo could have been the beginning of the end. Big mistake killing someone who would have been good enough to be in the Genovese admin.

IMO if the capos really want to rebuilt the ranks and prestige of the borgata must cut any ties with the Persico clan and choose a young and smart boss that are respected by the other families like gambinos did kicking away the Gottis and give the leadership to the sicilians.

yeah they need to make some big changes right now to rebuild themselves
and like you have said furio
they have to do what the gambino's have done
and it's to make a huge changes and have a brand new administration
and keep forward and forgot the past
time is changing the mob is not how it's was
so they need to adjust themselves to the new changes and environment.

Persico’s the last 15 or more years they have been bringing relatives over not just or for sole purpose of the OC but if that happens why not.

They will never go the route of Gambinos ect . as long as there is still blood available, that doesn’t mean that it will not be a non blood street boss but most likely.

The way of the world is different and if anything that life is going and has been slowly collapsing so even more in this day and age it will be blood in the families with the pool of good men dwindling .

Not just dwindling but collapsing with no old guys to show the way ... look at Philly right after Nick it’s earning but not big business, not just LE pushing but lack of educated members to show the younger guys . If not shown it’s so hard to learn on your own because you will make mistakes and take pinches and that makes rats ! it’s a bad circle of events.

But I highly doubt you will see Perico’s on the outs for some time ..... believe it or not many of those guys coming up are educated on both sides of the tract.


Time will tell.

Pmac, you are thinking of Robert D'Onofrio, he is one of the top five members in the family along with Joseph Amato and Billy Russo. I dont have much info on him, but he was chosen to be either acting boss or acting underboss. Teddy Persico will become boss given that Al Persico has two life sentences. What little has been revealed, it looks like Thomas Farese has invited Teddy Persico to stay in Florida when his parole is up, like how Skinny Joey in Philadelphia is doing. Teddy Persico also did a little flexing in California before he was locked up so he might head out there when his parole is up if his enterprise makes a lot of profit in California.

I can't see why the capos would vote for another Persico especially one (Allie Boy) that is in jail for life or Teddy Jr. that would be nothing but a heat score.

I agree, I think Carmine Persico ruined his family by having his sons/bloodline as future bosses & ignoring guys (Wild Bill Cutolo & Little Vic Orena) that maybe would do better for the family than his sons, or nephews.

Yeah Colombo Crime Family has had the largest number of high ranking turncoats of all the NYC Families. And things isn’t like how it was maybe 60-70 years ago where there was a much larger recruitment pool in the Italian American Neighborhoods. Now, those sources have all dried up, the Italians that lived in NYC slowly moved down to Staten Island or Long Island during the 70s & 80s. Basically they can find guys in those two areas but they won’t be near as good as were the guys from back in the day, earning capabilities speaking. And Italians have Americanized now, 4th & 5th generation Italians are the younger guys now 15-25 y.o and they don’t seem too keen on joining or holding omertà till death if they do make it. On the other hand, The Gambinos are bringing in Sicilians by the boat loads 😄.
