Bada Bing! - Lady Cop - 01-20-2011
bye bye Soprano wannabes...your time was up years ago. :wheelchair:
NY Daily News
The feds staged a massive Mafia roundup Thursday, arresting 127 suspected gangsters from the city's five mob families - along with hoods from New Jersey and Rhode Island - on charges ranging from racketeering and extortion to murder.
Federal agents launched their crackdown before dawn, and by mid-morning the jail at Fort Hamilton was filling up fast.
"Some of these men were involved in classic mob murders," said U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder. "Some were senseless murders."
In one case, said Holder, a man was shot and killed "over a spilled drink."
Among those nabbed were:
* Reputed Colombo capo Anthony Russo, who is charged with the 1993 gangland killing of then-underboss Joseph Scopo during the crime family's civil war.
* Accused Gambino family capo Bartolemeo Vernace, who charged with double homicide in Shamrock Bar in Queens in 1981.
* Andrew (Mush) Russo, 76, alleged street boss of Colombo Family.
* Joseph (JoJo) Corozzo, 69, reputed Gambino family consigliere.
* Benjamin Castellazzo, 73, believed to be a Colombo family underboss.
* Luigi Manocchio, 83, suspected former boss in the New England mob.
The suspects, including alleged members of the Decavalcante family in New Jersey, are charged with a slew of crimes in multiple indictments that will be unsealed in Broooklyn Federal Court.
An 800-strong army of federal agents carried out the takedowns across three states. One arrest was made in Italy, Holder said.
Earlier this month, the last of 14 members and associates of the Gambino family arrested in a crackdown in April 2010 pleaded guilty to charges against them in federal court in Manhattan.

Mexican drug lords would stay out of the news if they would stop chopping off heads. I think they do it because they have bad aim and can't figure out how to get a necklace off a dead body any other way. Plus, the gardening equipment is right there in the truck.

Because we bought and brought the Negros to America.
The Mexicans are just a bunch of party crashers.

now here's a scary-looking mafiosa...
New England Mafia capo Anthony “The Saint” St. Laurent is scheduled to plead guilty in a Rhode Island court Wednesday to a failed murder-for-hire plot to rub out his reputed underworld rival and fellow made mobster Robert “Bobby” DeLuca, according to court papers.
“Shoot him in the (expletive) head. Say, ‘This is from the Saint,’ ” prosecutors allege St. Laurent coached an undercover cop posing as a hit man in 2007 on one of at least three attempts he made to execute DeLuca for control of his rackets, according to court papers.

NY does not have death penalty, but this is Federal court.
NY Post
Flamboyant Bonanno crime boss Vincent "Vinny Gorgeous" Basciano could become the first head of a La Cosa Nostra crime family to get the death penalty, after being convicted yesterday of ordering a hit on a fellow hood.
The verdict in Brooklyn federal court capped a monthlong trial that exposed the violent -- but often zany -- underbelly of life in the 21st century New York mob.
And the trial made Mafia history when longtime Bonanno kingpin Joseph "Big Joe" Massino -- once dubbed The Last Don -- became the first boss to turn rat and spill his guts about family business.
But it was the wacky day-to-day sideshows that gave the proceedings a circus-like atmosphere sure to become the stuff of wiseguy legend:
* Vinny gave the classic mob smooch the kiss of death, forbidding his crew from kissing each other on the cheek in case the feds were watching, a turncoat testified.
* Judge Nicholas Garaufis lent Vinny his own Brooks Brothers tie after prison brass refused delivery of the defendant's designer neckwear.
* A gangland-killer-turned-rat told the court how Vinny once tested his loyalty by having his gal pal try to seduce him. He passed the test.
* Vinny complained about the prison diet of cheap baloney sandwiches, so Garaufis came to the rescue again and Basciano noshed on a tasty chicken hero from the court cafeteria.
Basciano -- who refused to wear a headset for fear of messing up his perfectly-coifed 'do -- was found guilty of conspiracy to commit murder, murder in aid of racketeering, and an illegal gun charge. The jury will reconvene next week to decide whether he gets life in prison or execution by lethal injection. He's already serving a life sentence in prison for an earlier hit.
Some of the most dramatic testimony came when Massino literally pointed the finger at Basciano as the man who ordered the rubout of Bonanno associate Randy Pizzolo.
"That man in the gray suit sitting there," Massino said, staring down Basciano. "He told me he had him killed."
Massino also related how Basciano, 51, climbed the Bonanno ladder after the "Donnie Brasco" sting in the 1980s, when undercover FBI Agent Joseph Pistone worked his way up the organization's ranks and then brought much of it down.
The jury, convinced by incriminating wiretaps of Basciano and a parade of low-level mob turncoats on the witness stand, reached a verdict after three days of deliberations.
Basciano, who'd mugged for the courtroom during the trial, turned away, silent, his face red and his jaw set. His ex-wife and sons, present for much of the proceedings, were absent.
Pizzolo was gunned down in 2004 in an industrial section of Brooklyn, with bullets riddling his back and head.
