Yes. He had 3 brothers. one was a priest - Louie Gigante. Great guy. Priest, political figure, advocate, etc

He ran a parish in the So. Bronx before going into politics and later opening up a revitalization project for the area. He rebuilt half the So. Bronx.

He came under fire a few times. Even went to the can once to protect his priestly vows of silence when conferring with a congregant or subject. In this case Jimmy Nap who was jailed at the time in NY.

They broke Father Gigante's balls pretty good. But he stood up like a man and a half. Hellava guy (and priest). Went to jail until someone, another judge, overturned his sentence as disgusting. but he still spent over 10 days in the can on a contempt citation for refusing to talk
