I'd just like to start off by saying hello. Through my friend Gregory Vita I have been working on a small project bringing the truth about Sonny Franzese's story to the screen. Both videos posted are from a month ago where I visit Sonny (no, he's not living with his daughter) and talk to Greg about his early release, among other topics. I've known Greg over a decade, so when I met Sonny it was easier for me and him to form a bond because he could trust me. If you have any questions about Sonny or Greg, I'd be happy to answer them and even post some photos. More videos will come; some containing Sonny's perspective.
In part one, Greg talks about how he hired an attorney to have Sonny's federal detainers dropped and even wrote to President Obama.
In part two, Greg talks about his relationship with Sonny's family. Off camera, Sonny responds.
Thanks! They'll be a few more videos by the end of this month. Michael hasn't lifted a finger to help Sonny, so Greg will be working to get him out of the nursing home.
"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea
Even worse the Feds putting him very active and even in the top five in the family that is not true with the Persico’s and Russo no way that was happening .
The Feds are worse then the gangster just for what they do to innocent people related or close or loved ones to a gangster they will ruin lives just like if not worse then a gangster.
It a sin that Sonny is a stand up guy,anyone in his situation would write some shits on paper and sell it but anyone would pay (I would be the first) for a book on his life in the mob from the 1930s to today.
Greg is a dead ringer for Jeff Ross without the hat.
Anyway, interesting videos. It's a shame Michael and Sonny continue to have a strained relationship at this point in their lives. It seemed like they patched things up when Sonny was released.
Looking forward to the rest of the project. Thanks, Obama!
