What can I say?! You guys are like the "cherry on top", meaning it looks quite different and its way better than the original one, with the additional info and the additional rare photos and stuff. Thanks again guys and cant wait for part 2!!!!

Prio was one of the most elusive and untouchable Chicago bosses, who never did any serious time, almost on the same level as Accardo.

Cheers

In addition, it was Nuccio or Brancato (dont remember right now) who confirmed the story to one informant regarding Prio betraying O'Neglia and the rest of the old "Northsiders". I wonder if that never happened, how was the new Outfits leadership going to look at the time?!

Prio is such an interesting guy. He stayed under the radar as good as anyone in the Outfit and had huge power on the north side.

Good article Toodoped!

Thanks a lot @ChiCubs. Yeah, Prio never did serious time, even during the most turbulent periods, and so stay tuned for Part II in which you will witness Prio's real high-rise.

Cheers

I wasn't happy with the audio on the video so I trashed it...45 minutes ...lol...and am re-recording so it'll be a few more days..a great story, indeed with more than 200 accompanying graphics. And this is only Part 1...so, it's pretty thorough.

Thanks for the info Lisa and as I already said, all of those unexpected problems or issues are always occurring to those so-called real researchers who are constantly working hard and find time to do it, instead of being constantly with their families. In fact, thats some type of "sacrifice" that we are doing so other people can read about these stuff and realize the horrible reality which is still out there around every corner.

Again, if you need any help im at your service. Cheers
