Membership is closed permanently. There is no family, rather remnants of associates who run independent bookmaking and other scams. Two of the largest bookmakers in Cleveland are the Sabatini brothers, Gerald and John, both former high level associates of Pittsburgh, but they moved into Cleveland in the mid 1990's after Cleveland was decimated. They were under the supervision of Charlie Imburgia, aka, Charlie Murgie, longtime consigliere of Pittsburgh who lived in Warren, OH and owned the a Sunrise Inn restaurant in downtown Warren. Joe "Loose" Iacobacci did try to rebuild the family, but just didn't have enough steam with other families who refused to give him support. He had some contacts that were low-mid level guys from Chicago and had a medical insurance scam he ran with a few of them. Problem with Iacobacci was he didn't garner respect from other families and with "most" of his Cleveland associates. RJ would have been a much more effective leader but by the time Loose and RJ were even made, it was truly the beginning of the end for Cleveland. Scalish was such an effective boss for 30 years, it still boggles my mind why he did not keep the ranks replenished. Licavoli was a terrible boss and truly shouldn't have been boss of that family. If Lonardo was named boss (which many sources claimed he was chosen, Maishe Rockman, Scalush's other brother in law, never would have gone with Angelo because they rarely saw eye to eye). Lonardo and Rockman were married to Scalish's two sisters, but Rockman didn't like the fact that Angelo was respected nationwide and was exceptionally close to some of the major players like Tony Salerno, Joey Aiuppa, Jackie Cerone, Tony Acxardo, Carlo Gambino's, Frank Balistrieri, Nick Civella, Jimmy Lanza, the Milano brothers in L.A and Joe Bonanno. If Angelo was named boss like he was supposed to be, the war with Greene never happened and he never would have cooperated, as he flipped because he was named in a drug conspiracy, and if you knew anything about Lonardo, there is NO WAY he was involved with narcotics. And if Cleveland did in fact have a family, Ron Carabbia would have been running it without question once he was released after 27 years in the can. Plus, Lonardo and DelSanter hand picked Ron Carabbia to run the Warren, OH rackets and if you know Ron, he was a very smart, loyal, diplomatic, charismatic and respected by his superiors in Cleveland and was a "favorite" of Jack Tocco from Detroit, as when Jack Tocco came to town, he always would spend a few nights in Youngstown at Carabbia's house, as their wives were close as well, and I believe the wives were 3rd cousins.
