Did lawrence merlinos kids and family really just cutt him off. I find it hard to belive after getting locked up in 1987 doing 10 yrs they just cutt him off even his nephew joey probaly didnt care if he was living back in the sticks of new jersey. But i think his kids testified infront of the casino commission a few years back that they did cutt there father off and didnt even no were he was burried.
At first the kids were around there cousins (Skinny) and others but as time want on they did not feel same way . In the end they were with and loved there father .
The wife and boys went on to build Yogis business (Nat Nat)into a great business and it was not long after the money was rolling in and who try's to extort his own family with the excuse that there father flipped " yes Skinny ! The business is still very strong and is under a different name. (Bay shore rebar)
Tommy Del had a small condo right off ninth street in Ocean City NY 9 th street is the main drag in . The Feds knew that they could wire it up (and knew he was week)at will and did , and yes they had him talking bad about the boss drunk and sober and of course once it was played they did not even need gambling or any other reason to flip him .... he should have never been made he should of been left as a associate earner he was not all Italian .
