This guy is in Tuscon USP,,,, any ideas why that individual is still alive??how come noone has pull the plug on him. in the other hand he is in Arizona,,,hes the equivalent of Whitey Bulge maybe evem more he was boss that gave up everyone

That’s stuff doesn’t really happen to high levels guys anymore. The Whitey Bulger thing was A huge shocker. But Bulger was also 89 years old and in a wheelchair probably near death anyway. Casso was also a big lunatic. One of the most feared mobsters on the street in his era. I mean he is older now but still

thats why it makes more sense for Casso to get wacked,,,,,unless if they have him in the shu meanig in a one man cell 23 hours lockdown,,,,,unless someone read this article and passes word upstarirs,,,,there wont be too many tears

Casso will obviously be in protective custody so trying to get to him ain't going to happen. Also if they do hit him the feds will "pull a Meldish" and arrest the whole Lucchese administration and put em all on the hook for murder.

Doesn't Casso come off as a hypocrite for later claiming disgust over Gotti's murder of Castellano, yet when Gravano told authorities that Casso had no qualms seeing Big Paulie get whacked? Also, was the attempted hit on Costello sanctioned by the Commission?

When Paul got hit Casso wasn't even UB or capo I believe he was still Christie Ticks aide de camp

Casso was a soldier who was to be reckoned with. DeCicco and Gravano felt him out, and told him he didnt care what they did, but kept his mouth shut after. Angelo already told them they had approval from the Colombo family which is backed up with the bug recording the meeting, and Gotti said he had Joe Massino of the Bonanno in his pocket, but all evidence points to Joe not having a clue about Castellano, but I think Anthony Spero might have had a clue. The Costello hit was not approved by the Commission, evidence by numerous sources, informants and bugs on the commission member families.

leonetti said that his uncle checked, and it was apparently approved, considering his sources would probley be very high up genovese, it muddys the waters, dont think we can stamp it either way.

It wasnt approved by the commission thats why the CHIN, came after GOTTI,

Gravano, said they recieved support from the luchese and colombo families
The Bonanno's Gotti was tight with Massino so I guess he didnt worry about them, they weren't on the commission at that time

I find it silly for Chin to claim high ground when Castellano was clipped, yet Vincent himself was involved in a botched hit that probably wasn't Commission approved.

Mackinblack, you’ve misunderstood what Leonetti said

He mentioned that Gotti told them he had gotten approval,’
U know Nick, I want u to know, that I did things the right way’ says Gotti

‘I’m sure you did John,’ says Lil Nicky

Then Scarfo went to check with Bobby Manna at some point but didn’t believe Manna- when Bobby told him Gotit had gotten approval

Why did Scarfo not believe it? Leonetti said his uncle thinks Bobby Manna was just being devious and not letting on the fact Gotti didn’t get approval- and that the Genovese were gunning for him over it.

The Genovese were very shrewd. Obviously look how the manipulated Tony Bananas. They wanted Gotti to think he was in the clear. Gotti was just a lucky SOB. First Decicco gets hit instead of him then Bobby Manna goes to jail right before they were going to go after him again and was caught on top which the FBI actually warned Gotti about

For someone who was extremely 'streetsmart' , Casso sure looks straight dumb once he was caught and behind bars.

I mean the guy ratted out everyone he could.
He had ace's up his sleeve, with his knowledge. Especially regarding the Mafia Cops.

But he blew it. Could of been a Mob 'legend' , but now just viewed as a deranged mega- rat. And he got nothing for his ratting. Actually, he got it worse. Wasn't he in one the harshest federal prisons??

Massino was not in power at the time. 86.

I think he was actually in jail at this time.
Regardless, the bonannos were kicked off the commission at this time anyways.

As for casso... he TRIED to pull his cards about the mafia cops. But he lied from the get go.

And I'm sure he is still in PC in prison.

Massino was basically the boss since 82..that’s why when he and Phil went away in 86,Sal Vitale and Spero we’re running the family. if it wasn’t for Joe ,Sal would have still been a correctional officer much less the boss of an organized crime family ... Casso was caught in SOME lies but the main thing was that in the wit sec unit he formed his own mob and had a girl smuggling in coke and weed that they were selling

yes hes definetly in PC,,,,, and whith this virus goign on all visits are suspended,,,too frank salemme is another one who was in hazelton ,,,he managed to get to prison hosptital afetr bulger got wacked,,,, cant wait til both of em get wack
