He's the one on the right.
Charismatic young player who was cast as Robert De Niro's son in "A Bronx Tale" (1993) after being spotted by casting agents at New York's Jones Beach. Bearing more than a passing resemblance to his movie dad, Brancato won the role in part because of his uncanny recreations of great De Niro moments in Scorsese films and his own natural ease in front of the camera. He proceeded directly to Penny Marshall's light comedy "Renaissance Man" (1994) and the thriller "Crimson Tide" (1995).

sure about that??
The link to story should read ABC7 Chicago instead of CBS2 Chicago.
He was only in like 3 or 4 episodes in the first season.
This almost sounds like a joke.
Wow! They use authentic hoods in the Sopranos. I'm impressed. Maybe they can have the scumball come back to life in the series and we can eventually see the trial and watch him fry.
If it's proven they killed the cop, they should get the death penalty. But fuged'boudit because NY shot down the death penalty. I doubt if they even get life as the Bronx DA is one of the most liberal in the country.
Yeah. I looked to be sure. :-)
FYI, the shooting occurred in the Pelham Bay section of the Bronx. I hate when generic news reports cite "the Bronx" as a location. The Bronx has many many neighborhoods.
No, it was season 2. He was sucking up to the Michael Imperioli character, Chris, then went on to try and get in good with Richie Aprile by shooting Michael Imperioli's character.
I know this kid. He is from my hood and works out in the same gym as me. A cop friend of mine also told me that this kid was a drug addict and street hustler.
My impession of him is that he is a punk. Most of the people in my hood don't like him.
Ba-Da-Bing ~ Bump!
Probably the only NYPD officer of Basque extraction.
Hang the perps.
Pelham Bay is not what is used to be.
This kid was bound for this. He is a dope addict and punk. I know this idiot from my gym and hood. He is a small street punk who I wanted to KO many times.
I remember him now!!
Paulie was in the slammer too. I think he had it written into his contract that his character would never be a snitch.
Hey where are you guys when we need to "persuade" some professors at NYU and Columbia????
