Who is gonna be official capo now that punchy passed away ? I herd stevie Arena was running his crew as acting capo. Any one have any opinions?

Probably Albert Gallo seeing they have been kinda co running the crew together for the last few years.

I herd Gallo runs his own crew but who knows
Gallo is younger then punchy was right?

Pretty sure they were both leading the same crew as co captains, but i could be wrong. Gallo is 81 so his pretty old himself, but for the west side thats still considered being in your prime for captain lol.

Dellacroce , your spot on . I've read on a few occasions they were co captains of that crew for the last few years

How about gallos nephew Stevie gallo is he active?

My guess it's either him or rocky in line for it.

Who is Rocky?

Rocco Dipeitro (I'm guessing at the spelling)

Rocco Dipietro ? Never herd of him old timer like punchy? Any info on him skinny?
Also does Joey Gallo have kids I herd mixed answers on this.

Sonny fransese kid with the HIV got him on wire talking about blast gallo abusing the nephew Steve. Sonny called blast all types of shit mutt dog. He said he couldn't compare to his brothers.

Why would arena take over? He's w the gambinos n from Bensonhurst not Carroll gardens. If the genoveses are smart which they are, they won't move anyone up and never fill any more vacancies. Close the books for good.

Arena is close with the gambinos but hes in the genovese family. Arena is tight with cali but to diff familys.

I knew of a "Rocky" who owned a bunch of bars in Williamsburg including one right under the Williamsburg Bridge. He called it the "Rock Star Bar" then changed names to "local Bar". Don't know if it's the same guy but this guy definetly gave off the vibe of being connected.

Rocco is the son of murdered Carlie. Did 18 years for a murder in the 1990s I believe. But I´m not sure he is made.
Steve Arena is a Genovese member, in Chucky Tuzzo´s crew.

This is who I'm talking about yes. A question for you HK do you know if Andy Wilson was under tico or punchy. I thought just based on where he's from he's be with punchy. But I've heard he was under tico. No longer obviously. I'm assuming tho that Tuzzo and tico ran the same bk crew that came from Mickey dimino.

This Rocco is he close with Conrad?

Sorry bro but I really don´t know.

Hairy or skinny ? Who does punchys crew consist of

^^^ Wish I knew, but I don´t.

Any info on this Rocco guy ?

That whole south Brooklyn crew is very tight lipped and close knit.

He's def tight w Cali. He had the bar on 18th. Always thought he was w the gambinos...always w one of them. Goes to show u despite how things appear there's always something you don't know. Is that why he took over the joint suite in bay ridge?Would make sense bc that was Allie shade's place for a while. Or am I wrong there too haha

..great posts

Although having a bunch of money, Albert Gallo was never a big earner. He made more money from his restaurant then from his rackets. Still though, he´s big due to the Gallo name. Punchy, it seems like, was never the official captain but may have acted in this capacity at some time. They dodn´t have much of a crew, just some people who like to hang out with Gallo so they can say they know a gangster.

Pretty sure the Masullo brothers (?) are associated with the Gallo/Illano crew.
Up n comers till they went away, one of the brothers was proposed.

Relatively young for the Westside.

With the death of punchy how many people are left from the war with old man Joe?

I read that the Masullo brothers were with Anthony Palumbo. And does anyone know which Williamsburg restaurant the Masullo brothers own? It couldn't be Bamonte's. Maybe it's one of the trendy spots near Bedford Ave?

My mistake you're correct. Felice Masullo was an associate of Tony D Palumbos crew.
