I didn't read the entire thread so I didn't know about the Albanians... I just now saw some of the more recent news pieces. Interesting 2 minutes btw. I thought this was Italians murdering Italians, you know, like the "good old" days. And some sh** about a Blood gang member, man I have no clue what's going on.

Basically Zottola Sr been targeted since last year ( or prior) for some reason ( allegedly Albanians) and the contractors ( UBN members) have successful completed the hit. I've been stated before that LCN members/associates have hired UBN members to do hits. This been going on for who knows how long and just one of few cases where they're caught.

He'll never get the death penalty...Especially in NY My money says he'll get paroled before he ever see's the death penalty... They only push that bs to give these guys a reason to become a rat...Like Massino...He's not stupid, he knew he'd never get the death penalty and even if sentenced would die of natural causes before they ever carried out the sentence !! That said, its getting pretty embarrassing for the Italians when you have associates of your family getting killed and you're doing nothing to avenge it !!

GPS tracking device found under reputed NYC mobster's car after he was executed, feds say By Robert Gearty | Fox News
Reputed NYC mobster fatally shot at McDonald’s drive-thru Federal agents investigating a New York City mob-style hit found a GPS tracking device beneath the victim’s car, according to reports.
Reputed Mafia associate Sylvster (Sally Daz) Zottola, 71, was sitting in the car when he was slain at a McDonald’s in the Bronx in October. His 41-year-old son survived an attempted gangland execution in July that was caught on camera.
Prosecutors told a judge Friday that they have surveillance video showing some of Zottola’s alleged killers coming and going at a location where the GPS device was activated six days before the murder, the New York Post reported
The hit may have been ordered by Albanian mobsters trying to muscle in on Zottola’s “Joker Poker†video game racket, according to the paper.
Five alleged members of the Bloods street gang have been charged with the murder.
Defense lawyers complained in court that the government shutdown was delaying a Justice Department decision on whether to seek the death penalty when the case goes to trial, the paper reported.
Newsday reported that the claim about the GPS device elicited no comment from any of the defendants’ attorneys in open court.
The elder Zottola had longstanding ties to Vincent “Vinny Gorgeous†Basciano, the former boss of the Bonanno crime family in New York City, according to the paper.
Debbie Zottola defended her father in an interview with the Bronx Times.
“He was a good man not a goodfella and he was a wise man not a wiseguy,†she said.

Mobster’s son behind dad’s murder at McDonald’s drive-thru: feds A wiseguy’s son had him whacked in a McDonald’s drive-thru in the Bronx — and was behind the botched hit on his own brother, federal authorities in Brooklyn said Tuesday. Anthony Zottola Sr. was named in a Brooklyn federal indictment that charges him with murder-for-hire conspiracy, unlawful use and possession of firearms and causing death through use of a firearm. Zottola’s father, Sylvester “Sally Daz†Zottola, was gunned down on Oct. 4 as he sat in an Acura SUV that was boxed in by other vehicles outside the fast-food eatery at Webster Avenue and Belmont Street. The elder Zottola, 71, had ordered a medium coffee shortly before being shot in the head, chest and shoulder, law enforcement sources have said. The reputed Bonanno crime family associate is suspected to have run an illegal gambling operation involving “Joker Poker†video games. “As alleged, Zottola Sr. set in motion a deadly plot to kill his father and brother, with Bloods gang members carrying out extreme acts of violence to collect a payoff for the hits,†said US Attorney Richard Donoghue. “Zottola Sr. and Shelton referred to the planned murders as ‘filming’ a movie, but thanks to the outstanding work of law enforcement, the ending of their plot will take place in a federal courthouse.†And FBI Assistant Director-in-Charge William Sweeney said, “There is apparently no love lost between Mr. Zottola and his family members, so much so he allegedly hired members of the Bloods gang to kill his brother and father. After several botched attempts on both men’s lives, sadly his father did not survive the last attack.†“It looks like it was over the family business — the Joker Poker machines — and the son was looking to take over,†a source said Tuesday. Investigators initially suspected the hit was ordered by rival Albanian gangsters who wanted to muscle in on the racket. The killing followed an earlier shooting in which another Zottola son, Salvatore Zottola, was critically wounded outside his family’s waterfront compound of three homes in the Locust Point section of the Bronx. The July 11 attack was intended to “lure out†the elder Zottola so he could be killed, according to the feds. Anthony Zottola and eight alleged co-conspirators — several of whom were arrested previously — were awaiting arraignment Tuesday afternoon. A ninth defendant was being sought. https://nypost.com/2019/06/18/mobsters-son-behind-dads-murder-at-mcdonalds-drive-thru-feds/

Wow! Wild that with this hit and the Cali hit we initially thought they were mob-related killings, but turns out both over family/personal bs. Even if this was over some rackets, it’s still some inter-blood family struggle and not some order that came from down from one of the bosses. 2019 is wild.
