Joseph (Joe Brewster) DeDomenico was allegedly whacked for becoming a "born again Christian" by the Scarpa crew. Carmine Persico gave the orders "if he found God, it is time for him to join God."


Eminem the rapper has become one of these too so I hear. Is this the racket where they clap the tamborine and you have to pass over all your earthly materials to the cult?

Maybe they thought the born agains were moving in on their turf? Maybe they thought they had to put the poor fuck out of his misery?

Either way that's some cold shit and it goes to show how sensitive a topic religion can be to some people one way or the other.
