That's Nicholas Pillegi. Author of Wiseguy (Goodfellas). Hard to believe he was young once.

"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea

He had balls, man. Reporting on the mob in those days?

I don't think it was uncommon, many books and been put out about the mob throughout the 1960's, and Capeci may have been reporting on them also at that time.

Not uncommon at all, journalists were generally off-limits for the mob, as were police.

David Caruso... how does that work? Is he considered more Irish or do the Italians want to claim him since every housewife wanted to bang him when he was on NYPD Blue?

I invoke my right under the 5th amendment of the United States constitution and decline to answer the question.

That was a good one. Thanks for sharing bobbybacino. Older reports on the mob might sometimes get affiliations or titles wrong, but still provide interesting info.

I know. He thought he was going to be a big movie star but his movie career tanked and he had a few rough years before CSI Miami. He was supposed to be a real dickhead - I read he once threw a garbage can lid at Dennis Franz's head during one of his on-set tantrums. The show was better when it revolved around Sipowicz anyway.
