The fact the guy was caught out doing burglaries at his age with Rudy Fratto's dumbfuck brother-in-law probably proves yes...he was stripped of all his rackets. Mario was a major player in the 1980s with Jimmy LaValley. At this point, he was just trying to make ends meet any way he could. I believe his ex-wife went on to marry Billy Daddono who is still a serious guy and that is probably why Mario's son continues to hang around Outfit types without getting slapped around.
While I won't completely disagree these guys will do just about anything if they think its an easy score. What about the old guys breaking into the dead guys house a couple years ago looking for the marlborough diamond?
