The mob may be smaller and in the shadows nowadays. People really have no idea how big it was going back 100 years.
Thugs
Losers
It's actually bigger there all in DC biggest mob ever.
@@dsanders5142big true. People read accusations like that and laugh it off. But, just like Cosa Nostra of the past generations, the biggest “secret society” are the circles of lobbyists and ‘elected officials’ that dictate policy to the highest bidders. Wars that are fought to launder money from the tax payer to the private sector. Just like Carlin said, it’s a great big club and you ain’t in it.
They're More Business Oriented Now, Casino, Strip Clubs, Bars, Air Ports, Police, Lawyers, Etc ..... They Living The Dream From All The Work They Put In The Streets Back Then
News was so much more pure than it is now, I wish I could live for one wk back then.
I adore the seventies. Everything was raw. Vietnam had ended and everything was gritty & honest. Hell's angel chapters springing up. Diverse music. Creative clothing fashions that still hold on today. Cosa Nostra in full swing. And of course the late motherf#@king great George Carlin.
It was a wonderful time in some respects, not so much in others
New York in the 70s sucked for my gramps, first he dealt with the Japanese in ww2 and back in Manhattan street violence
Why
@@swamp9136 that’s every time period everything has pros and cons
The newsman knows more than any podcast or video commentary I’ve ever seen
John Miller went on to have a long career and was Giuliani's police spokesman during 911...
Can’t compare those fields lmao
That's John Miller, for years he reported on organized crime in New York, now he's a Deputy police commissioner
@@littleblackduck3134 In December 2013, Miller resigned from CBS in order to become the Deputy Commissioner for Intelligence & Counterterrorism with the NYPD. Miller rejoined William Bratton, who had earlier been announced as the new NYPD Commissioner by Mayor Bill de Blasio.[16][17] At the end of July 2022, Miller retired from the NYPD.
In September 2022, Miller became the chief law enforcement and intelligence analyst at CNN
John miller was also the last western journalist to have interviewed Osama bin Laden in person pre 9/11. He’s been putting in work for a long time
Young John Miller! This man is a NY staple!
Please upload every one of these you have. I miss these days
the mob must have hated it when car trunks got smaller
It's why they preferred Cadillacs and Lincoln Town Cars.
@@vxy357 that's why they had the DeMeo crew, the westies and Tommy Karate..🪚 🗜️🔩 ..yeah..I'll let you fill in the blanks..
This is what journalism looks like. Now the journalists are in with the crooks..
Or political hacks placed by their respective party to pose as journalists when they are really propagandists.
As a man born in 1981 in Australia this seems like a movie and I find it hard to believe, but it actually happened.
My grandparents neighbor. Would tell me great stories about his father working for law enforcement 1920s-40s
dealing with the gangs in Chicago/Milwaukee. They dug up a body in northern wi . Middle of nowhere ( deep into the forest)
Peace
This type of history was real and nothing was hidden
Lol right …
This is the era right after the Nixon tapes and Vietnam papers, you know that right?
If you believe that I've got several bridges and tunnels to sell you my beautiful
amazing ...how this here automatically plays right after a sopranos clip I watched🤦♀️🤣
That pot logo was sick
Seeing that hand sticking out of that blanket.....is chilling 😬
Usual Suspects yes. Now you see.
2:00 Aww, his hairdo is SO 1978 and takes me back. Good times!
Get a haircut, hippie! 😆
The curly afro.
They got some incorrect info back then, but good video
So nothing's changed basically?
0:57 Michael Franzese was made after the hit on this guy, Americus Scotese. According to mob informant Sal Miciotta, Franzese was the getaway driver for this hit and they both were formally inducted into the Colombo Family after this hit.
He later got out of that life clean doing motivational speech review mob movies and sell own brand wine.
@@barebarekun161 is he tho
@@Sizzle-zv3cp I SAW him speak at Andiamo's* (in Warren, MI) a few years ago. He was insightful and Funny-albeit a bit Hypocritical. "When I played in Little League-I got a Hit, or Home Run, Every time. (Nobody dared strike him Out.) " "When I played football, I got a Touchdown whenever I touched the ball." (Nobody dared tackle him. His Dad, and his "Crew" went to all the games.)
His Father lived to be about 103 years Old. He got busted for shaking down a strip club at age Ninety. Michael was a Premed, but when Dad went to Prison for a bank robbery, he felt he needed to hustle to help get him out. So, his Father said: "If you want to be on the Street-do it RIGHT. I'll send someone to meet with you."
*Andiamo's in West Bloomfield, Mi used to be The Machus Red Fox. That was the sight of Jimmy Hoffa's Last Non-Lunch.
He has some Weird Conspiracy Theories, however, about JFK and Marilyn Monroe. He also thinks that Hoffa is in "a Wet place." I think it's more likely his body was burned, or dissolved in acid.
@@barebarekun161If he was black then he would be locked to this day.
And now franzese acts like he's all innocent"helping" people with motivational dialogue 🙄 he was a murderer himself. He's bullshite with his "Monday mob movie reviews" on RUclips. Then he became a rat to save his own. Smh....now all the American Italian keyboard warriors are on his dick telling him how great he is. 😅
0:55 I vividly remember walking by that murder scene on the morning of March 23 1978 on my way to school, It was in front of a bar with yellow police tape around it. From The New York Slimes: "Americus Scotes, a 48-year-old trucker, was walking his dog at 6:30 A.M. yesterday near his home on East Fourth Street, near Avenue U, in the Sheepshead Bay section, when he was fatally sh0t in the head and chest." Note how young freelance reporter John Miller was here... Age 19...
Holy smokes-I lived on avenue X in Brooklyn back then-this crime scene-i.e. the Prezenzano murder-must be walking distance to my high school, Sheapshead Bay High School, in the sheapshead bay section of brooklyn.I remember that a bunch of old timers-like that Carmine Galante-were released from prison like in 74', 75' time period. They looked like a bunch of old grandfatherly types in the newspapers-with their fedora hats, and canes. But just them being on the streets again seemed to...trigger...all sorts of explosive side effects. The papers( Daily News and New York Post ) said it could be a "full scale gang war"...some kind of power struggle. Another one released back then was Joseph " Joe Beck" Dipalermo. They said that he once tried to give Joe Valachi a poison sandwich in federal prison back around 1960. Interesting, this news footage from 78'.
And the cycle continues
on splooj?
@ J : There were a lot of wannabe ' gangsters ' back in those days...mostly from Bensonhurst . But after the ' splooj craze ' there were a lot of rotator cup injuries being reported by emergency rooms throughout the city.
Know every one of these guys as a kid. Nicest guys you can ever meet. No joke. And very generous
It funny to hear how far off they were
Mob was no fucking joke man not a force to be reckoned with mannnnnnnn shit!!!
50s, 60s, 70s, 80s they runned that shit but they took hella damage in the 90s and early 2000s RICO and the Feds fucked them up
@@nah3826 wiretap recordings the feds was smart and surveillance on their every movement and drugs bought the mob down big time!
I LIVE IN CT AND REMEMBER GAMBINO USED TO COME HERE AND HANG OUT IN THE GREENWICH RESTAURANTS
NEVER MESS WITH A MAN LIKE HIM
@@nah3826 Not Only That But Smaller Fractions Gotten Big In 90's & 2000's Like The Mexican Mafia & Crips/Bloods Running The Streets Killing Rampant In 80's&90's.
Back in the days where gangsters weren't just drugged out less intelligent individuals doing it just to rap about it.
To think these goombas weren’t drugged out too 😂
I bet they sniffed coke a bit
And rarely targeted innocent civilians or the common working men.
"It was revenge for Billy Batts, and a lot of other things. And there was nothing that we could do about it. Batts was a made man, and Tommy wasn't. And we had to sit still and take it."😅
I've watched this a couple of times now and am I correct in hearing John say.... Neil Dellacroce is now making another bid for boss of the Gambino "family and... Carmine Galante...." ? I thought Galante was Bonanno and though its with hindsight I say it I thought Big Paully was invested by Don Carlo on his deathbed as Boss.?
If anyone could clarify I'd be more than grateful, thanks, and thanks for the upload here 🙏
Yeah this video was complete bullshit. Galante was a Bonanno member. He was never the “boss of bosses”. He was killed by his own family because he was a greedy bastard. Dellacroce had nothing to do with Galantes murder. And you are correct that Castellano was given the reigns as boss by Carlo shortly before he died.
@@JerryRiceBall You are both right and wrong. Galante was indeed with the Bonnanos, but his murder was sanctioned by the Commission. Dellacroce was involved in planning the hit. There is video footage of the hitter, Anthony Indelicato (Sonny Red's son), reporting to Dellacroce at the Ravenite right after the hit.
What was really bullshit was Dellacroce and Galante feuding for the boss of bosses title. As you rightly point out, Castellano was already the Gambino boss at that time.
@@alkamista4308 Your absolutely right. I think the news reporters didn't Know that Neil was Gambino underboss, they probably wrongly thought he hit Galante because he wanted to be boss of the Bonannos, but he was only helping Rusty Rastelli, who was locked up at the time.
@@alkamista4308 no you are wrong. Galante was not killed on behalf of the commission. Galante was never the official boss of the Bonanno family so the commission had nothing to do with it. Galante was named acting boss by Bonanno boss Rusty Rastelli. After Rastelli was sent to prison he named Galante acting boss but soon regretted his decision when it appeared that Galante was trying to take over the Bonanno family from Rastelli.
Think of how much insight was gotten by the public via court trials and cooperaters years after these events. Back then the secret society was indeed tight lipped. A lot of guessing was going on by reporters and law enforcement
joey pots and pans was killed in broad daylight today while eating a meatball sandwich 🤣🤣
Miss them days
Before the Sopranos
I really want to see that weed segment.
Wasn’t Paul Castellano the shadow don during this period?
That was 1986
Yeah but Neil was the real muscle
Wow the mob is really ruthless
Was*
As far back as i could remember. Can we all just get along.
Wtf - Galante was with the Bonannos, not Gambinos & surely was never even close to being boss of bosses - shows how pathetic LE was before the Giuliani years
He tried to become the big guy...he was aggresive in his efforts, thats why he was shot on that back patio a year later.
That's not Paramus, NJ!
John Miller young as fuck. And Marvin Scott is throwback.
Napoleon dynamite came with the faxx
Stephen Graham made a great Tony Pro in the Irishman. That lot at JFK where the body was found in the trunk was a favorite dumping spot. Long term parking was also closest to the subway line to get into the city. When visitors would ask where is the train to the plane line you hated to send them there.
He was terrible as Pro. The entire movie was a mistake.
@@jerseyirish Nah.
Why would u hate to send them to the subway to airport line I don't understand..can u explain please..I'm very curious
@@josephhoman8602 Because it was so isolated. That’s why wise guys were dumping bodies there. This was years ago. I’m sure JFK is fixed up 😂
@@josephhoman8602 Maybe because of “ghost” thing? IDK.
What does that f*ckin' mean "you people?" - Tony Pro
That’s John Miller former NYPD Deputy Commissioner
Not a wrinkle on Marvin Scott and John Miller looked like he was in high school
Carmine tha cigar Galante was hit because of the heroin and mostly because he kept calling himself Boss of all Bosses.. the other Bosses didn't like that at all.. so Delocroce was asked to hit Galante.. he wasn't trying take anything from Galante actually.. Delocroce was the underboss for the Gambino family and was one of the most gangster of them all.. his team hit carmine Tha Cigar Galante hard.. Delocroce put Tha Cigar out..
Newspeople didnt know too much. No such thing as Dellacroce and Galante competing to control 5 families. Dellacroce and Galante were both second in command of different families. Gambino and Bonanno respectively. 🙂
**plays Layla as the bodies are found**
Anybody know why these men in the reports where killed as there names i cant quite understand to type try look up names articles on internet am a crime/drama fan and history.
I believe that Sal Briguglio was killed by the Genovese family. It is believed that Briguglio was involved with the murder of Jimmy Hoffa and the Genovese family wanted to silence him. Patrick Presenzano was killed by the DeMeo crew of the Gambino family. Presezano had crossed the DeMeo crew and payed with his life. The other murder victims I have no knowledge about. The Mob in New York back in 1978 was much more powerful and dangerous than it is today.
Love the names
This was the beginning of the end for Galante, they took out his main muscle before he came out of prison.
Who got whacked?
It all sounds a bit Richard Kuklinski to me..
Nothing personal. Just business.
You are right Carmine Galante was trying to become boss of all bosses, and yes Neil Delacroce was taking notice. As was the other bosses. So no it was a power play, it was a commission call because they couldn’t stand him no more!
Italians are based
Tony pro man
Huh
this is some shitty reporting.
I WAS 7 THEN AND REMEMBER THEM CADDYS
NOT LIKE THE PLASTIC JUNKS TODAY
NOW THATS A FLOWER CAR
Yeah, but the gas guzzling back then had no safety, & they were ugly
@@JC_inc THE NEW CARS ARE UGLY EVEN THOUGH NOT STEEL . THEM OLD CADDYS WERE UGLY BUT WELL BUILT NOT CHEAP PLASTIC THEY DO NOW
When republicans say they miss the old New York lolol
The crime gave the city character and edge it was exciting place to live at the time never a dull moment
LET'S GO BRANDON
Dont forget to vote blue.😅
Let’s banned Brandon
Lest we NEVER forget that the mafia ALWAYS votes democrat.
@@kimberlyfrost4730 GO SCHMUCK AND NANCY
@@kimberlyfrost4730
Nope. Most mob guys are republicans.
Yes, the mobster support union , but they wouldn’t be caught dead taking a picture with a lib.
you say dead mafia boss like it's a bad thing - to hell with these insults to law abiding Italians
USUAL SUSPECTS.smh.
