Would they be making new members in Philly? Yeah Uncle Joe made a lot of guys. Last ceremony was 2011, Dom Grande, Sonny Mazzone got made, can't remember who else. Tommy interesting. Just out of curiosity where did you hear this? I know I have read about the 07 ceremony but not about 2011. Did uncle joe do this ceremony or was it after he got indicted?

I believe it.. Must be more money being made in philly than people say cause joey is living ok and seems like a lot of the other philly guys aren't starving either. I have no idea what those guys are making and kicking to Joey if anything,and will leave that to the Philly mob experts. I will say Boca is a city of extreme wealth and driving around in in an Escalade and living in a $400,000 Townhouse would be considered middle class in Boca. The nicer townhomes down here start in the 2 million dollar range and Bentleys, Rolls and Maserati's are almost as common as Hondas. If Joey is still the boss and getting an envelope he is doing the right thing by keeping a low profile and not living extravagantly at least by Boca standards. True. But now he's driving a brand new rolls royce.. I'm not sure what model but I'm pretty sure its the ghost. Its dark blue and silver.. So he's not keeping too low of a profile.. Also I wonder if he's going to upgrade from his townhouse to something bigger since his wife and younger daughter are moving down to boca with him in a month.

Flamboyance got him pinched the first time and now hes throwing it in the feds' faces again? They already visited to talk about increasing restitution. He's gotta instagram posting photos of him living it up. When is he going to learn?

He's gotta instagram posting photos of him living it up. When is he going to learn? I know nothing about him except for what I've read. But I have heard from a few Philly posters that he had a habit of sticking bookmakers, and I think that tells you a lot about his character. Now don't get me wrong, virtually all criminals are lacking character. Right? But I think there are degrees of character. You take a John Gotti or a Vinny Basciano, and those guys were both serious, even problem gamblers. But from what I know about Vinny, and from what I've heard about Gotti, they'd stick up a frigging bodega to pay their gambling debts if they had to. Anyone who throws his weight around and says, "Fuck you, try to collect," is not worthy of his stripes if you ask me. But again, this is all third hand from guys I've met here. I try not to speculate about people outside of my own area  .

Those two are not mobsters, they are thugs who happened to have vowels at the end of their names. There's a difference? I would say there is a bit of difference between real mobsters like Gambino or the Chin that successfully ran multi-million dollar ventures and thugs morons that rip off bookies. Guys like Georgie are closer to the thug end of things. Degenerate gamblers that can't even cover their own debts.
Should probably ask Mr. Kierney. I guess if you're Italian, you should be in prison. I've read the RICO Act, and I can tell you it's more appropriate... for some of those guys over in Washington than it is for me or any of my fellas here

Their have been a lot of Philly media reports about Joey and the Philly Mob power structure, at least in part to sell papers and drive traffic to their websites. What I find interesting is that there has not been a single report on Joey by the South Florida media since October of 2012, not even by the gossip papers and Joey literally lives directly across the street from the National Enquirer's Headquarters. The last report on Joey I believe was by Julie Brown when Joey called her dispute what she wrote about him when he was released, see the article below. Now the media down her loves a story on the Mafia especially Channel 7 in Miami, which is more like TMZ than a TV station, and all you hear are the crickets chirping. http://www.miamiherald.com/2012/10/01/3029688/mob-icon-merlino-speaks-but-doesnt.html

Hey Stevie, do you have any pictures of Beeps, Marty Curro, or Eric Esposito? Robert Ranieri as well? I'm trying to finish my new chart for Philly, and there are a few guys that I just can't find ANY pictures of.
Guess that's a good thing for those guys though! heres one I've seen of Ranieri although i don't think he's a made guy-

He's gotta instagram posting photos of him living it up. When is he going to learn? If he's driving around in a Bentley and ends up buying a $2 million house, it wouldn't be too hard for the IRS to put him in prison for another 10 years unless he's reporting enough income on his taxes to show he can afford those luxuries.

Shit I've known people for years who appear to be doing really well but in reality they're drowning to stay afloat. It's a dangerous game, but half the street guys play it. If not more than half. Image is everything to some of these guys. But in all fairness, it's not mutually exclusive to wiseguys. I've known assholes like that in the "straight" world all my life. Morons  .

Ranieri is just an associate. Including as many known associates as I can into the chart as well. Thanks for the pic Dellacroce, I appreciate it! Ranieri is no longer in that life. He and Staino had a falling out long before those indictments came out.

I believe the one that came out in the trial was from 07 where fazzini, canalichio, esposito and four others got inducted. I have never heard of the 2011 one though. the info about both the 2007 and 2011 making ceremonies came out during the trial. I'm sorry i would put the time in to find proof for you but I'm much to busy Didn't ask you too. o ya i put a lot of time and money into researching this type of stuff and judging by his skin tone, hair color, and weight suggests that he's northern moderate italian, but his guido style shirt(with the no undershirt combo) seems to suggest that he's starting to make the jump to super italian. we used to have a real expert on here whose really the one to talk to about this(he let us all in on the big secret that robert deniro wasn't really 100% italian but yet still looked it!!) i haven't seen him post in a while though I get it you're better than me because you're slightly less obsessed with organized crime. You only come on this site because you have a moderate but healthy interest in the subject.

We were BOTH referencing a poster who's obsessed with skin tone and ethnology. No sense bringing up his username, but I promise you it's not you  .
