Any idea which crew he used to collect for? So do you think Cecola is the "strong guy" mentioned in the article?

It's crazy how interconnected all these guys are through blood relations and family marriages. It's like an episode of Game of Thrones.


I think that Cecola and [....] are two of the "strongest" or "wealthiest" Outfit-connected strip club owners.

Polekatz in Gary is also a major Outfit front.
