you peaked my curiosity about those fellas after I read them. So I looked them up. I noticed that a Joe Visconi is alleged to have been killed by Pinto. He was a bartender at the Wagon Wheel Lounge in NY? and this Joey Rabbit and Louis Spetrino were guys active in Connecticut with a few Gambino guys?

I imagine they are the ones you are referring to? I see that they are mentioned in several articles, but no reference per se to the Joey Gallo incident at all.

Cosmo Sandalo, an old time zip supposedly ran a game in CT with one of them. It came from the LCNBios site that I have a lot of confidence in. He's a pretty good researcher.

The other source was "Wikipedia" about Visconi which as I'm sure you know and agree is less than reliable as a source. Anyone can modify that info. So I'd be less sure of anything written there.

One more thing Giacomo, for what its worth. Joe Yak and Vinny Aloi were both "there" always for years. I do believe that Benny and Cisco had also been made years before. But it's believed that Funghi got straightened out a few years later when the books opened up. I'm sure that his "work" that evening must have helped him in getting his button. That was a huge hit. Lot of props to the guys who pulled the Gallo killing off.

Funghi was never a big earner per se. And I don't know that he moved mountains after getting straightened out. But just that piece of work gave him a lot of respect from guys afterwards ya know. How could it not right?
