Alphonse Trucchio
A rising star in the Gambino mob was sentenced Thursday to 10 years in prison for racketeering and other crimes, including extorting two strip clubs in Queens.

“They can’t take my honor,” said capo Alphonse Trucchio, 35, as marshals escorted him from the courtroom after sentencing in Manhattan Federal Court.

Trucchio pleaded guilty in February to racketeering, drug trafficking, extortion, assault, loansharking and gambling in exchange for a sentence of 8 to 10 years in prison.

He was one of more than 100 mobsters busted in four states in January 2011 in the biggest Mafia takedown in FBI history.

In November, he was charged with 19 others with participating in a scheme to smuggle women from Russia and neighboring countries into the U.S. on fraudulent visas to work at strip clubs controlled by the Gambino crime family.

From the NY Post:


he future will have to wait.

A second-generation gangster described as "the future of the Gambino family" was sentenced yesterday to 10-plus years in the slammer.

Alphonse Trucchio — son of imprisoned-for-life mobster Ronald "Ronnie One-Arm" Trucchio — was also ordered to cough up $100,000 in ill-gotten gains, including two Rolex watches and nearly $8,000 in cash seized when he was busted last year.

The feds say Trucchio, 35, is the youngest mobster ever promoted to capo by any of the Mafia’s five families and led a “flourishing” crew that made large amounts of money from extortion, drug dealing and illegal gambling.

Trucchio, who appeared bored during his hourlong sentencing, declined an opportunity to speak, but on his way back to lockup told about two dozen supporters, "They can’t take my honor."

If Frank Cali' wasn't 35, he was damn well near close to it.

Danny Cutaia's nephew (I think?) was in his 30's also running a crew, wtf was his name??

Edit: It was Johnny, or Jimmy goggles (prob not a real nickname, but one of those fake 'insulting' names the press/fbi gave them) he was a war buff, and his crew allegedly gave him a Luger for his b-day; dad was an associate, also somehow related to the bald Gambino capo who dealt with the Russians...I always remember the story details, but never the name! Damn it!

Edit 2: John Baudanza. 41 now, so most likely was in his mid-30s when he ran the crew.

John Baudanza...he's getting out in less than 30 months.

I thought John Baudanza was a soldier.

I think what the feds are trying to say is that Trucchio (who was listed as an acting capo, or an official capo already around 2005) was around 28 at the time.
I don´t know exactly Trucchio´s date of birth but he might have been slightly younger than anybody who has ever been elevated to a captains rank in the past, including Cesare Bonventre in 1979. But this presupposes that he was an official captain, and not on acting basis only.

You´re right Ted. John Baudanza is a soldier with the Lucchese family. Joseph Baudanza however, was/is (?) a captain with the Colombos. They are related somehow but I´m not sure how.

To be clear, I wasn't listing John Baudanza as a capo. I was just posting an "aside" to what Nick the Greek posted as "edit #2".

He will be back. I bet he can do 10 years standing on his head

Who made this guy? Marino?, D'amico, John Gambino?

wasnt joe bonanno boss at a younger age?

is not alphonse trucchio an acting captain? the official should be still ronnie trucchio

Alphonse was indicted as a captain so it appears he's officially taken over his father's crew.

That does make sense because the father was sentenced to life in prison. And I think it was in 2005, right?

He received his life sentence in 2007, I think.

so ronnie trucchio was demoted? i doubt it anyway i bet the oprders come still from him

You´re right. Bonanno was 26 when he became boss. The feds seems to have overlooked that...

But I´m positive there were other guys elevated to a captain´s rank who was younger than Trucchio throughout Cosa Nostra history. It´s just that we don´t know about them. One guy comes to mind right now...Gaspar DiGregorio (born in 1905) seems to have become a captain when Bonanno took over. So perhaps we should take the feds statement regarding Trucchio with a grain of salt.

Right. That would have made Trucchio 31 when he took over. So with that in mind, Trucchio was not the youngest capo ever.

Being imprisoned for life, I don´t think the Gambino bosses finds him valuable or useful. But then again, who knows?

I think he was made in 2001. If that´s the case, I believe Peter Gotti (the acting boss at the time) made him.

He can get out early if he behaves himself.

Thanks HK!

im not sure but i found this also in wikipedia about cesare bonventre: "At 28, Bonventre became the youngest capo in Bonanno family history." he died at the age of 33 and he was a capo so it seems legit.

Yes Bonventre was a capo. And he was 28 when he became one. So the article (in regards to that) is legit. But much of the other claims seems to be wrong. For example, I´m pretty sure DiGregorio became a capo in 1931, when he was 26. So the writer´s claim of "Bonventre became the youngest capo in Bonanno family history" certainly seems not to be legit.

wasnt chichen man testa's kid sal made at 21 and when his pops died scarfo made him capo at 23 or so jr gotti was a capo at 26, i read petter gotti made him at a young age guessing 2000. this kid was a huge earner like his dad and they controled queens. thats why he had some pueto ricans in his crew.

I don´t know how old Testa´s kid was when he was made capo. But that could be easily checked out. And you are absolutely correct about Junior Gotti. He was made in 1988 (when he was 24) and made a captain in 1990 (when he was 26).

Testa was made when he was 24 and was bumped to skipper when he was 26. I don't think you can compare it to NY...guys were dropping like flies in Philly during the early 80s.

Was he knowledgeable enough to hold that position???? You can compare to a legitimate company where an idiot son takes over and doesn't know how to run it. Reminds me of some of my stupid rich friends

"they cant take my honour" when i read about this last year i thought how corny and attention seeking. Clearly a young guy trying to gain attention by saying cliched mafia crap about honour. This brought loadsa media attention. twat.
