Just thinking out loud little nicks coming out the can next year, paving the way for him and others to return to power

“They don’t want no flashy leaders, no weekly social-club meetings,” The Post reported the source as saying.
The Gambino family demoted Gene from capo — a member of the family who heads a "crew" — to soldier because he was in prison. It is not yet clear whether Gene will resume his role as capo or insist on a higher rank in the family. Reports allege that he oversaw a loan-sharking operating while he was in prison.
“Everyone hopes he will be low-key and just make a living, but that is very un-Gotti-like,” the law-enforcement official said.

Out of nowhere...

Thats support my long time hypothesis " We don't know anything about modern LCN activity in USA" To much bla bla.

The hit looks a litte bit easy. Imo Thats speaks against Gotti. If it Gotti's plan... it will be an interesting year.

If Cali was the true and only connection through port of Newark, you don't kill him over 1 lost shipment, even if it was $77M. Unless maybe you have a new pipeline set up. But 20 years of reliable business?

I think someone in NYC, whatever family, was sick of seeing him run the family as a drug enterprise for Zips.

Either that, or the Zips were upset over his moves in Palermo.

Other option is somehow, some way the right people found out he was cooperating. Otherwise, why act with such haste? Leave the body? In front of the home? There's been a flurry of court activity with major staten island guys (the 2 bonnanos who just got off, Frank Camuso who is under investigation). Plus, Crea and Madonna in WC and all the discovery evidence in their trial. Who knows.

If it's a personal beef, an arrest will be imminent. Every house on that block has a camera. Bridges in and out of SI either scan EZ pass or take a picture of the car to bill you later.

In particular about the higher powers.

I am interested in if in this day that they can pull off a hit like this without five guys calling each other when it’s done or using a legal car or do it in front of four cameras ect....

its probably internal mannino gene gotti crew etc. If not it comes from another ny family and linked with all this canada stuff

Great aerial footage of Cali’s 1.7 million dollar home

outside of is home !!?
if it's such a high class neighborhood then why don't they have cameras around or maybe at his house ?
and if they do have then we might see some arrests soon and get more info about the hit

I don't think the Gottis were/are at odds with Cali he was trusted by Jackie D'Amico.

Definitely surprised this AM. Sad it sounds like his kids were there, regardless of what he may have done in life feel bad for the wife and kids

Took a chance sending one guy if that’s the case , but using one guy does a load of good for who ever ordered the hit because one one guy that could possibly talk and one one guy to kill if you are the guy that ordered it.

not gene gotti ordering the murder but i could imagine him and his group stiring up all types of shit a violent palace coup. putting batterys in peoples back. like funzi tieri telling tony bannannas go ahead get rid of angelo bruno youll be boss. frank cali also could have been like big paul the guys didnt respect his gangster he was more a business man

What amazing news, from all accounts he was a "seasoned, smart, pro" running the family, had been groomed forever and obviously was low key. To mask such a dramatic public hit is just unthinkable.

It seems to have to be internal or the wrath of god would descend upon any other family that made this call and why do they need this heat unless it was the west side over an issue he would relent or negotiate on.

Everyone assume he was the "official boss" do we have any proof ? The news from the Gambino's has been especially quiet for nearly decade.

As for the "personal beef" idea, no way he's dealing with people directly that would actually have the balls to take him out. People, remember, he was the BOSS of the Gambino's that alone would make most people shake in their shoes.

If I had to take a shot in the dark I'd say Nick and Jo Jo" Corozzo were behind it. They had the balls, resources, connections and probably the eye on the top spots for the last 25 years

We don't know what they took away while he was gone.. Even though there was someone watching his personal business, We don't know about what was on the street. Plus Peter was the acting boss.. Disrespect. The Gotti's take what's theirs.. Pure speculation on my part.. Maybe too obvious

New York Mafia: What's happening to the Five Families?

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-47566981

They definitely have Cameras, especially around his home. I never met one who didn't..

Whatever about the kids, the wife knew what he did for a living and the risks it entailed being a criminal and leader of a drug empire, with all its fucked up implications on broader society.

If she's anything like Josephine Massino, Victoria Gotti and most of them, fuck her.

Rest in Pieces, Frank. LOL at the tire squashing his head like Phil Leotardo in The Sopranos.

Maybe that's where the hitter got the idea?

Definitely not.. They are happy with what they have. No reason. Nicky was boss for a short time and it didn't work out in his favor. If it was closer to his release then they'd be a possibility. Cali evidently screwed someone either internally or externally.. Eventually it will come out..

Fuck her? Dude do yourself a favor an for once just be quiet. You bring zero to the conversation 99.9% of the time. Here’s news for you, nobody cares what you think of OC. You aren’t changing the world for the better with your rhetoric.
You must live a very sad and boring life and I feel for you but do yourself a favor and talk about what you know.
Like Martin Cahill or whatever.

Does anyone know if the fallout was true that Cali supposedly had back a year or so ?

It’s possible he was on the outs and refusing to let go ?

And then there is a chance he was the boss and they took him out.

If anyone outside is going to make a move on a family that’s not in the family it’s not going to be a move on the largest family it’s just not making sense if it’s a outsider.

I apologise. I didn't know you had to be Italian in order to be allowed to talk about the mob. His body isn't even cold yet. Every post in the thread is complete speculation. If people want to pay tribute to a felon like he's the pope, then I am entitled to have the opposite purview.

And I don't have a sad and boring life. I watched The Bridges of Madison County with your mother last night.

You sound hurt lol but carry on

k.

where is your humanity?i do not understand why you're not banned. this was somebody's father, husband, brother, friend, etc.

Damn!!! I did not think this news was real. Wow.

This is some wild stuff right here. First thing I thought when I heard last night was that big cocaine bust. (Hidden in dried fruit) pretty sure Cali owns/owned a fruit import export biz. But pure speculation.
Had to post for this one. What up Pmac

Regardless you aren’t the judge and jury. So just stop crying 24/7. Join the FBI if it’s so important to you dude, or volunteer at a soup kitchen. You’ll feel better than writing your pointless ramblings
