It was comical from day 1....He was involved in how many wars, 2 or 3 ?? He got badly hurt in one, and none of the shooters were arrested for that shooting...and served half his life in jail...

The feds and the media have both hit rock bottom

I gotta totally agree with you on this. Carmine Persico was a bad fella. A deadly, remorseless killer (many times over). And I'm sure that aside from his children and blood relatives who mourned him, there wasn't too many tears shed by his passing.

I suspect he's got a lot of explaining to do to Saint Peter up at the pearly gates of Heaven. But thats between him and his creator. It's not for us mere mortals to decide.

But one things for certain. Junior Persico was no rat!

He lost everything he had in this life. The only thing he had left was his name and his sense of 'honor,' At least he goes to his grave with that. That obviously meant it all to him.

And the worst thing about it was Jerry Capeci's article. He completely gave Larry McShane a pass. Basically saying it wasn't McShanes fault, he took his co-workers word upon the word of a defense lawyers. Then Capeci goes on to blast the MBA and the button Man podcast even though they're taking the word of a major Newspaper and a 30 year veteran reporter. Fake News looks out for Fake News. Fuck anyone else that don't agree with them. It's despicable.

Who is this McShane ?

Thanks

He is a veteran news writer at the NYDaily News. He should have known better than to vet a story. It was laziness on his part in my opinion

Definitely a bad guy..But the FBI and media aren't too far behind !!

I ultimately apologize for the firestorm that it ignited. Didn't do my research properly and jumped the gun.

Hahaha. Go back to the Persico is a Rat thread. You got NYMafia saying it isn't true BUT anything is possible (2times) then you got Mafia Student (who is much smarter) realizing it doesn't make sense that the same Informant number is beside every guy listed( very thoughtful and intelligent observation yet didn't know NY 3461 TE was Scarpa as we have known for 15 years). A few post later Mafia Student acts like they found the Holy Grail and Scarpa is NY 3461 and NY Mafia cosigns 1000%. It's great to finally know the truth but it's another thing acting like you discovered it. Angela Clemente sent me that 2nd batch or files on my EMail 15 YEARS AGO! Not the first batch that's on the FBI vault but the 2nd batch. Just because you finally discovered the truth doesn't make it your discovery. It's like saying you dug up TRex bones in 2021 and announce it as a new dinosaur species

You are "The Big Hustle," aren't you?

Now the Yuppie Don comes out with his two cents on this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4imgpBX82Q&ab_channel=MichaelFranzese

Thanks for that link. it's one of his better videos. I think he is at his best when not talking about himself. I expected him to attack Persico, most like him like to say everyone else was a rat, not Franzese, so good job here by him on this one.

Johnny Come Lately? New kid in town. Wasn't on Boston Forum or the Old AM or RD in the last 20 years , so when you come round?

Now your attacking Lisa also? you stoop to insulting a girl? LOL, what a "man," what a "gentleman" Lol.....

Colonel, hate to say it but your tremendous envy and jealous is showing. I suggest you pull up your bloomers and skirt and cover that shit up!

And didn't the "mods" on GBB just admonish you weeks ago for this same type of nasty, insulting behavior? Didn't they instruct you and Louie to 'cut it out'? If I'm not mistaken they asked you in no uncertain terms to stop all the trolling and attacking of others. They said 'a debate about a subject is one thing. But personal attacks were another.'

I see you post nasty comments on all our posts. Why is that Colonel? You just can't help yourself?

Isn't that right Colonel? So why not cut it out before your get spanked again by the mods? GBB doesn't need this BS from you

Colonol Reb you think your the only one here that was on the American Mafia forum or the Real Deal forum?? Next thing we know you’ll be saying you were Picasso and it wasn’t Steve Lenahan it was you ...hahaha

I can tell you, picasso was not lenahan. I actually know who picasso is / was. He was actually a made guy. End of story.

Who was he? It's ancient history now so there would be no harm in letting us know.
