Ten alleged mafiosos from the Gambino crime family were indicted by the feds for their alleged violent attempts to take over the Big Apple’s garbage hauling and demolition industry — which included a hammer attack that sent one worker to the hospital and a grim threat to cut a business owner in half with a knife.

The defendants — who include made men and mob associates — were hit with charges including racketeering conspiracy, extortion, witness retaliation, fraud and embezzlement, according to the indictment unsealed Wednesday in Brooklyn federal court.

They each face between 20 and 180 years in prison for the laundry list of crimes they’re accused of — many so brutal they’d make Tony Soprano grin.

Biden get his piece? Asking for a friend.

They’d do a better job than the unions.

I thought the mob moved on from the garbage business. Wasn’t that one of the business ventures Rudy shut down???

“The 16-count indictment lists the defendants as Joseph “Joe Brooklyn” Lanni, 52, of Staten Island; Diego “Danny” Tantillo, 48, of Freehold, New Jersey; Robert Brooke, 55, of New York; Salvatore DiLorenzo, 66, of Oceanside, New York; Angelo “Fifi” Gradilone, 57, of Staten Island; Kyle “Twin” Johnson, 46, of the Bronx; James LaForte, 46, of New York; Vincent “Vinny Slick” Minsquero, 36, of Staten Island; Vito “Vi” Rappa, 46, of East Brunswick; and Franceso “Uncle Ciccio” Vicari, 46, of Elmont, New York.”

Mediocre nicknames.

indicted by the feds

I take the default position that NOTHING the Feds say or produce is Honest or REAL and most likely all manufactured to cover up their own criminal activity. I would NEVER believe anything they say or produce as evidence.

Yeah he pretty much got rid of all of them but leave it to the Democraps to bring them back from the dead much like they’ve resurrected the Nazis.

If you interested in the mafia genre then look up Sammy “The Bull” Gravano on YouTube he’s the former Underboss of the Gambino Crime Family and flipped on John Gotti, he’s for a podcast and some of the stories he tells are interesting

He admitted to being involved in 19 murders

I do see the pattern. You are correct…

A major financial publication about 40 plus years ago ran a cover story that BFI was mob owned and operated.

The mob isn’t out there fighting for the little guy when the law fails as romantically portrayed in the fictional Godfather. They’re actually just pieces of violent homicidal shit, every last one of them.

They got busted because Mayor Eric Adams, Joe Biden, and the U.S. Attorney were not getting a share.

Mafia and big apple garbage haulers? I think we’ve seen this movie before.

Phil Leotardo has something to say about compromise (35 seconds).
