Yeah. I don't see why he should have ever mentioned the Johnny Gongs murder out loud.
I was thinking the same thing when I read that. Why mention a murder from 8 years ago? Just keep your mouth shut, it can only get you into trouble. Feels like Licata was trying to show off to the Gambinos.

I can tell you this much, Jersey and Philly would have been a LOT better if the more tight-lipped Joey Sodano had never been whacked. Ligambi would have found a way to keep Sodano in the picture and get him to pay the regular percent because Sodano would have respected Ligambi's make-money-not-headlines persona. Merlino and Natale had him killed because he had a habit of holding back payments during the Scarfo era and had at one point, backed John Stanfa. Licata inherited the spot. No way Sodano would have mentioned half the stuff Licata did, and if Nicky O takes over after this, he won't either.
I know he's not too credible, but 'Picasso' on the Real Deal at one point claimed Licata was a brokester. The recent articles say he's made millions. Where's the actual estimate?
On another note, once again Michael Lancelotti avoids indictment!

You're right. Picasso was bragging about calling Scoops a name to his face. This guy called Scoops as brokester.

I figured Ranieri was probably a pretty big guy and Staino had him tag along with him so people wouldnt stiff him..

And I, myself, am 25 and just moved out of south philly about a year ago, but my whole family still lives there and it seems like they haven't made many people in Philly lately and the ones who are made are all older. Some of the guys I grew up with that are ages 23-33 are into gambling and loan sharking and everything else but they dont seem to be aligned with Ligambi and all of them. maybe cuz theyre younger or what not but i also heard there was a new younger group in south philly these lately

These younger guys are just doing their own thing and not paying a street tax?
Southphilly, whats the latest on Mazzone, Chang, Lance, Nicodemo... Have you seen these guys around? Is it just them 4 and Sonny Mazzone running things?
Also, be4 the Ligambi clan got taken down where these guys out there? Did you see the whole crew like Mousie, Staino, Uncle Joe, Lucibello, Angelina or were these guys really low key?

I figured Ranieri was probably a pretty big guy and Staino had him tag along with him so people wouldnt stiff him.. Ranieri had a fallen out with Staino a few years before they all got pinched. He got married and he left that life behind. He was making no real money with Staino. And your right about Bobby,he is a pretty big guy. He is no joke. Bobby was Staino's main guy.

From what i here and see out there nobody is out there like in their hey days. I do see Sonny once in a while if i drop by the Broadway bar which is right next to quattro. Sonny is a bartender there and his brother Handsome Stevie is there quite often. Other than that i never see Johnnie Chang anymore since he dont have the news stand on the corner of Chickies and petes. Lance well hes just plain boring, and Nicademo is married with 2 little kids and his hardly ever out. Georgies brother Anthony is always up and down passyunk ave like he owns it. As far as the 10th and O gang they are pretty much all living in jersey and married off and come to the city to work legit jobs. Dont really know what they are into on the side. Most of the young guys were just hanger ons with no real basis on how to make a living. Before the big Ligambi take down,Mousie,Gaeton,and Marty were always around quattro and the broadway and yes Marty was a drunk and got carried out plenty of times

Yes Sonny is a bartender and also has a night club in center city called Libations. Lance being made is not a gurantee but the feds say Scoops is on tape saying that Lance brought Esposito in to get made. Wouldnt he have to be made to do that?
