Marco D'Amico is a peculiar situation.

Nick Calabrese would have no idea who all the made members were in the Chicago Outfit. Not in his prime, and certainly not during the time period in which he snitched. There isn't an annual membership booklet/yearbook publication for the Chicago Outfit.


I never said Nick knew all of the made guys.

I said he identified 60 made members of the Outfit. Shortly after the FBI once again cited its less-than-30 made guys statistic.

Where are you getting the thing about Carparelli having a 'crew' under him?

The terminology is deliberately vague and potentially misleading.

From the article I read they caught Carparelli enlisting various guys to beat the hell out other people, and he was arrested along with 8 other people, and cited as the ringleader, but that doesn't mean much.

It means he was the center of it and 8 people associated with him did enough to be arrested.

It doesn't mean they were his 'crew.'
