Federal prosecutors in Brooklyn got some very important help from an aging wiseguy in order to take down the Colombo crime family Admistration, along with three powerful capos and four other mobsters and associates this month in the biggest Mafia roundup in a couple of years, Gang Land has learned.
Colombo capo Dennis (Fat Dennis) Delucia, who is 80 years old, just may be the oldest mobster to ever wear a wire on behalf of the government.
Sources say the geezer gangster is the latest in a long line of Colombo family defectors. Delucia helped the feds charge family boss Andrew (Mush) Russo, underboss Benjamin (The Claw) Castellazzo and consigliere Ralph DeMatteo with shaking down a Queens-based construction workers union official for 20 years.
