  • This week on the show we speak to former Bonanno associate Gene Borrello. Gene is a complicated guy who is constantly up to something. He led a wild life, cooperated and then came on RUclips. He recently just got out of prison and is kicking up waves again. We caught up with him about some of his recent behavior and what's next for him.

    Joey Merlino is not a rat. He faced the death penalty in federal court in Philly (2001) and in Newark (2004). Never ratted, never cooperated. The government put lying rats on the stand, in both trials. Joey Merlino is a stand-up guy!

      The jealousy is real here. Some guys are so jealous that they had to do what they did and Joe Merlino didn't have to. Honestly it's embarrassing to be this jealous.

    No way he ratted, my uncle was locked up in Philly State for 13 years. Said Joey was very head strong for whatever years Joey did. And my Uncle was friends with all these Italians before prison and at 70 years old still friends with friends of all kinds and the same old school mentality. Joey was definitely not a rat coming from my uncle who got ratted on and called out* Joey's rat by telling him he looked like a rat after joking went too far and fought him before the guy even ratted on Joey and then ny uncle was proven right because the old guys at the time in prison told my uncle he can't say that with no proof and my uncle telling them he told them so in a friendly way how much they loved my uncle.

      @rodneydamon5238 I wrote the comment on account of the title lol. I was going to say. Because forget RUclips. I haven't spoken to my uncle in a couple months, need to call him, and check up on him, lol he's 70 years old, had a kid almost a year ago with his new wife and still from something personal waited for a wedding to be over and cracked a kid in the head with a baseball bat here in North Jersey for something his ex wife made this kid(her nephew do to disrespect his new wife) and is going to court for it now lol. When he told me about these stories when I took a trip with him to Ohio he wasn't talking about the mob, he was speaking from memories and reliving them while telling me about them, about him and Stanfa(literally his twin in looks and accent and mannerisms) being locked up first and playing some game in the jail before the sentencing in PA(don't know the name off hand). Then I asked about Merlino and said "he was a skinny guy, would run up and down the stairs working out", then I asked him "how was he though tough guy?" He said "very strong mentally I give him that". And this was about 4 years ago we took that trip to Ohio for business he had to do.

There's always going to be people who unintentionally or just screwing around that will have a little dust up that most guys walk away from. Even if Genes is in a good mood he just won't allow it. I don't think he's aware that he needs to mentally prepare for when it happens to just get out of there. I know one or two guys like that and its always a problem. He is also loyal to a fault and hates bullies. He needs to move to the woods or have someone he respects and listens to around him.

    One thing I do like about Gene is that he stuck up for the guy who was being bullied and even came close to getting another charge for it. I can’t help but have a bit of respect for him for that. I was in prison 3 times when I was in my 20s and I had similar experiences and had a couple of fights myself because I wouldn’t just sit there and watch someone being abused and bullied. I always hated bullying particularly in jail because you can’t get away from it and it takes a certain type of arsehole who picked on someone just because they can’t fight back. No one ever tried to bully me because they knew I would fight back so I hated people who only wanted to fight with people who didn’t fight back.

    @user-sq8ju4rn4k 10 месяцев назад +1

    I give much respect to Gene for sticking up for the weak, it is obvious that people are telling him half truths, especially Scars, let’s clarify this, Scars was Shelved by the time he cooperated, meaning he was no longer a part of the mob, (Nadu maybe one day you will find out why he was shelved), ”John Gotti Sr. Told everyone not to recognize Philly in 1991”, Joey was in Jail doing a bid for armored truck robbery in 1991, he wasn’t made yet, Joey Went to war with Stanfa 1993, Gotti was already in Marion in 1993, by 1993 it was already knowledge that Gotti Got punked by the Chin, Vic, And Gas, and never retaliated, so who was Gotti telling not to recognize Philly, when the West side and the Luchesse were already laughing at him and the whole Gambino family, Gene how many shooters did Gottis have on the street in Queens when you were running around, Besides Little Nicky’s crew in Brooklyn they had nobody and we already know little Nicky hated Gotti.
    Gene don’t listen to Guys like Scars, your from the street, Scars is a Pretender, ask scars why he got made, He wasn’t an earner (His wife said during interview) “I had to hide from the landlord, because he didn’t pay the rent”, “I always Knew he would rat”.
    Scars, wasn’t capable, he never retaliated for his brothers murder “ they told me I couldn’t “ SNEAK JOB no one knows you did it, and according to his testimony he was never even on work.
    Scars Ratted, he was facing 10 Years if he blew trial, the Atlanta case, which by the way was a prostitution case (Piece of trash, make money from a woman), the top defendant got 18 Months blowing trial, Scars was probably facing 1 year blowing trial.
    Scars captain position, they made him a captain because he would rat out all the Brooklyn guys to the Gottis and it would be easier for him to get information, you can actually see by the 4 times he testified against Junior, it was all hear say, Junior never did anything with him, he kept him around so he would rat out John Gamarano, Danny Marino, and all the Big earners in Brooklyn and he would do it on the regular.
    Gene beware of people like scars trying to use you, so you Check Joey and they the punks stay in the background a Mile away.

    Once again a great interview Jeff. Gene is definitely a character and has come along way from being a terror and a very capable enforcer for a bunch of ruthless killers. Like him or not he is as real as they come and doesn't mince words unlike the majority on here. I am glad to see he is doing the right thing in life and I hope he keeps with it and wish the best for him. Once again great interview Jeff and look forward to more of your content in the future.

    SAY THE MIRACLE Repentance PRAYER daily and it will change your life! Dear Heavenly Father, I come to you now and humbly ask for your forgiveness. LORD, I confess that I'm a sinner and I've broken your Holy Law. I realize that the penalty for sin is death. I believe that JESUS CHRIST suffered and died on the Cross to take the punishment for ALL of my sins. I believe JESUS rose from the dead and I accept Him as my personal Savior. From this moment forward I give you my heart and trust you to be the LORD of my life. Please forgive ALL of my sins and send your Spirit to help me do your will. I Love You, Lord Jesus. I Praise You, Jesus. I Thank You, Jesus. I shall follow you every day of my life.
    I thank you for your great love and accept your gift of eternal life, and I pray these things in JESUS name, Amen . Say this prayer faithfully, no matter what you feel, when you come to the point where you sincerely mean each word, with all your heart, something good spiritually will happen to you. You will experience Jesus, and HE will change your whole life in a very special way. You will see. A single saint fights back, and a thousand demons cry in agony. And you are that saint.
    Jesus Will Never Leave Nor Forsake You
    ''Trust in the Lord, and do good; dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in Him and He shall bring it to pass.” Ps 37:3-5
    Jesus Christ came into this world to reach those who feel that nobody cares. The Lord’s unfailing love surrounds the one who trusts in Him. The Lord Jesus Christ does care and He is reaching the lonely and the desperate, the confused and the hurt, the depressed and the disillusioned. Jesus Christ is reaching out to you.
    “But God demonstrates His own love toward us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Rom 5:8
    As we turn away from our sin and turn to Christ we find forgiveness and freedom.
    Jesus Christ is a Friend to the friendless.
    He is a Helper to the helpless.
    He gives freedom to the addicts.
    He loves the unloved.
    He accepts the outcasts.
    He changes the unchangeable.
    He forgives the unforgivable.
    He accomplishes the impossible.
    He saves sinners.
    He seeks the lost.
    He gives direction to the aimless.
    He gives hope to the disillusioned.
    He gives Truth to the confused.
    He gives joy to the depressed.
    He gives purpose to the purposeless.
