@Marine- you must not be in the Laborers Union 332... The Statens have been with the
Mob since the Scarfo days...

That's an interesting article but it leaves the present-day connection between the Philadelphia family and Local 332 rather unclear. I say "present day" because you pretty much have to go back to the 1980's to find significant ties between the two.

To hear your thoughts on that for starters.


You had the recent strike at the convention center by several unions, and the center filed a civil RICO suit against the Laborers, but I don't recall seeing any mention of the mob in the articles I read about it. Where are you getting this about Ciancaglini and Stagehands Local 8?
