Frank Cali Whacked (Mafia)

[Knownothing]

Head of the Gambino crime family. If you are into following this stuff, Which I am. This is pretty huge. The families are really trying to rebuild. Not sure where this came from obviously if it was from another family or within his own family.

Franky Boy Gambino? Fahgeddaboutit.

I live in the Tri-State region and the families here have really been weakened (fortunately, for all of us). That was the first boss taken out in 2+ decades.

Mob bosses really should have nicknames that have "the" in them, like Vinny the Chin.

Yeah the Mafia is basically barely around anymore. Guliani basically took them down

FBI was involved there, too.

My parents used to go to Vegas every January. Once the mafia was ran out of town, they said it became a dump and quit going.

The last boss that was murdered was Paul Castellano in 1985. Curious if it was ordered through another family or someone in his crew

I've always been fascinated with this stuff and have read a ton of books on the subject. I just finished a book called "The Murder Machine" about Dominick Montiglio and also the Roy Demeo crew. It was written in 1992.

Edit: Just noticed Cali was killed in front of his house in Todt Hill area. I didn't see an exact address but Paul Castellano lived in Todt Hill also. I wonder if it the same house.

Seems like one of those “if you come for the king, you best not miss” scenarios? I guess they didn’t miss...

He's as good as dead anyway, jail/custody or not. His only chance is a life sentence in solitary, even then I wouldn't put it past a guard to whack him.

Thought this was a new Mafia sign up thread at first. Was wondering why the theme was so weird
