https://www.masslive.com/news/2019/...anthony-scibelli-and-beating-victim.htmlhttps://www.masslive.com/news/2019/...-home-confinement-after-july-arrest.html“Albert†is one and the same as “Individual 1,†according to Sheehan’s affidavit. Though the court records aren’t clear, convicted loan shark Albert Calvanese is believed to have controlled a chunk of the local rackets for years, law enforcement sources have said.
Calvanese, 56, of Springfield, is regarded as a smart, stealthy and dangerous gangster who eludes law enforcement by keeping his schedule unpredictable and his interactions covert.
He was last prosecuted in 2006 for beating a mortgage broker who owed him a debt while the broker wore a state police wire. The broker also sought law enforcement help out of sheer terror, state police said at the time.

1 of these guys must be made out in springfield. 2 guys who were made and maybe alive but in 90tys pugliese and mario something. Pug was in the van when they killed bill grasso. Seems like things are the same out western mass. That crews active just not a handful of made guys. Dozen associates The following are suspected members, but the list is incomplete : - Frank Pugliano / AKA Pugs / Soldier Amedeo Santaniello / Soldier Felix Transghese / Soldier Anthony Delevo / Soldier Emilio Fusco / Soldier Albert Calvanese / Capo Ralph Santaniello / Soldier

It's been happening there all summer. This whole crew went down repeatedly for extortion attempts, almost surprised that calvanese or whoever's left with him would try this...this is not going to work at all. extortion plus arson equals fucked in present day springfield/chicopee/longmeadow, imho.

^ keep in mind these factors:
- most of guys up there are of Nola-Avellino-Benevento peasant stock, straight out of the armpit of Campania. They make the Gottis look like the Royal Family;
- Springfield is a small community and, whether we agree or not, they do have pull still, despite the mess since Bruno’s death;
- the Greek guy doing life that killed Whitey must have made them earn some street cred. Crazy to think about but that’s how that world is.
- Lastly, I don’t doubt that they have more guys than what we may be led to believe.
Fist,you can be a punk even if youre a pure sicilian; Second,the city is small but the state is big so can expand out springfield; Third,I doubt that a lifer can increase the street reputation of a mob crew; Fourth,you can have 6 or 10 made men but if they haven't the brain to go out shylock and arson,there are problem. And anyway I come from the Nola area.
