Had a very profitable run only real beef he had was later on in life with tony zerlli. I think tony always felt annoyed that he did not get the boss postition back in 1979 tonys father had been one of the most powerful bosses ever and tony himself served as acting boss in the mid 70s before going to prison while tony was away jack took over. Tony died broke in florida after he was shelved in the 2000s and his top associate jermome the blade was killed in 2002. Tony was allegedly very bitter and because of that tried to help the feds in finding hoffas body he was also threatening to make a website naming and shaming mobsters for money. There is even rumerous that jack wanted tony z whacked funny how two best friends can start to hate each other as time went on i think the gametax bust was the breaking point


Black Jack Tocco is quite possibly the most underrated mob boss of all time imo.

He ran this thing like it was supposed to be done. Just doesn't get the same praise as others because it's not one of the "Big 5" families
