Don't think LA was like Tampa, Tampa called their own shots, different families, would take too much time to explain...

Reading a little on the net about this Joe Isgro. My goodness. This guy was practically the low key Godfather of Hollywood since the '70s and it wasn't until the '90s that the law caught up with him. He knew what he was doing.

He's a Gambino soldier. Busted for loansharking in the early 2000s and more recently for bookmaking. He's known for not hiding the fact he's a made guy. One of the few active ones left in the state.

My early guess is Vin Diesel for his biopic.

In all seriousness, does anyone know of any books that go into more detail about him than just a mere mention of his role in the recording industry and his "suspected" mob ties? Any tell alls where he's a primary subject? Documentaries, film or tv? Amazon and google book searches only seem to find books where he's a anecdote.
