Not a lot. Castellano was arrested and convicted of an armed robbery as a young man. He also spent several months in jail on contempt of court charges stemming from his arrest at the famous Apalachin meeting of 1957. He was released when a judge vacated the contempt citations of all those who were held for refusing to talk to a grand jury. After that, he maintained a solid "legitimate" front in the wholesale meat and poultry business.


Ntra la porta tua lu sangu � sparsu,
E nun me mporta si ce muoru accisu...
E s'iddu muoru e vaju mparadisu
Si nun ce truovo a ttia, mancu ce trasu.
