‘Mafia Prince’ Tommy Gambino — Ratted on by ‘Sammy the Bull’ — Dead at 94
New York Post ^ | Oct. 14, 2023 | Angela Barbuti

Thomas “Tommy” Gambino, the oldest son of crime family founder Carlo Gambino, has died. He was 94. The longtime Upper East Side resident died Oct. 3 of natural causes.

The New York Times reported in 1992 that the Mafia captain had “at least $75 million in cash, bonds and blue chip stock.”

He was the nephew of “Big Paul” Castellano, who succeeded Carlo as the head of the family but was rubbed out in 1985 on the orders of eventual Gambino godfather John Gotti.

Went into witness protection. Ended up in Scottsdale AZ. But he couldn't lay low. He bought a pizza place and his cover was blown. Then he started to sell drugs and was convicted. Not he brightest guy around.

After 20 years inside he's now a "public figure" doing podcasts etc on the life in the mob, often with another "reformed" gangster Michael Franzese.

The dinosaur media only hires dimwits who spout the talking points they are fed. Journalism is all but extinct, only kept alive by citizen reporters.

Sammy the Bull is on YouTube telling war stories from wherever he’s secretly stashed. Like Steven Seagal crying like a baby to FBI agents that the mafia was going to kill him. That was actually pretty funny.

There’s another ‘Prince Mobster’ that found Jesus and escaped from the Mob.
I paid a buck for His DVD taped from
Shadow Mountain-David Jeremiah’s church.
It’s here——somewhere.

In 1969, David and Donna began a church plant in Fort Wayne, Indiana, with seven families in attendance. He served as pastor at Blackhawk Baptist Church for twelve years. During that time the church grew to 1,300 members, Blackhawk Christian School was founded, and The Bible Hour television program was launched.

In 1981, the Jeremiah family, which now included four children, followed God’s call and moved to California when Dr. Jeremiah became the senior pastor of Scott Memorial Baptist Church, which is now Shadow Mountain Community Church. Today Shadow Mountain Community Church is one of the largest churches in San Diego county with eight satellite locations including Hispanic and Arabic congregations. The main campus of the church, located in El Cajon, California, is also the home to Southern California Seminary and Christian Unified Schools, a multiple site kindergarten through twelfth-grade Christian school district.
