Came across this local Indy news article. It has a 7 minute video attached. Check it out. Franzese Jr. aka Mat Pazzarelli

Two rats from one family. On one end of the spectrum of being a douche you have this guy who rats out his dad. And on the other end you have his brother who continues to make money talking about the life he turned away from.

For such a tough guy Sonny Franzese had a couple of birds for sons.

Agreed.

Genetics is real BUT as a student of sociology, it’s the society/ surroundings that moulds an individual.

Sonny experienced things that made him real tough. His kids on otherhand most likely didn’t and just like a lot of mob kids- people probably were scared of their father and pretended to be nice to them. So they grew up privileged in a way and most likely even threw their weight around using their dad’s name

Then when the going gets tough we find out what they’re really made of ... as we have seen

Sociology? Everyone is unique. Scarfo jr. Privileged, threw his weight around through his father's name, took his time without ratting. Tommy Gambino, privileged, got a good lawyer and ended their monopoly on the garment trucking. No ratting. Gravano, came from decent upbringing, made himself the killer he was, rat. Henry hill, lower class honest family, rat.A douche is a douche and a man is a man. I only argue this because I couldn't stand taking sociology and psychology. A's in both, but I never bought into any of it.

I believe it. It didn't help that Franzese Jr was a drug addict as well sharing needles with just about anyone.
