There isn't enough standalone info out there to make Zaffarano an article at the most. Let's start at Mickey z. Who was his sponsor when he got made? Which regime was he initially put with? Which regime was he made Capo of and what area? And finally upon his indictment and subsequent heart attack,who took over his crew. 4 questions. Anyone has the answers let me know. Let NY Mafia answer first.
I don't know enough about Zaffarano to answer those questions of yours. I would have to first research him.
I can tell you he was a thief and around hustler until he locked into the porno. Then he made a ton. Ran the PussyCat theatre off 8th ave and 42st (I've been there a few times as a young guy lol), and was related to the Asaro's. Good guy, died of a massive heart attack as cops were raiding his porn offices. I do know he went back years with Joe Bonanno himself. that era.
But I do think a bio could probably be done on him. But how long it would be is another thing.we'll see. Maybe I'll take him on one of these days
