A Warning for the Bonanno Crime Family...

We didn't know how to proceed in the face of the reaction to our previous story. Our source cannot be identified and we were getting a lot of flack about him.

We shouldn't throw a guy to the wolves -- based on info from a source who may have held a longtime grudge against "The Mole," etc. and so forth.

We're not even referring to comments below the story. The phone calls, emails and texts drove us to shut off our cell phone and consider terminating this blog.

Then another source, this one a longtime source (like our new source, this one also is a made guy in the Bonanno crime family -- we know he's made because we have a 302 that identifies him as such) called us this morning.

He was pretty certain he knew who the mole was.  We confirmed it for him and his response was not "Who the fuck is your source?"

Rather, it was: "I fucking knew it...."

We're working on the story now.

We also wish to tell interested parties the following, which came directly from our conversation this morning:

Gerry Chili didn't trust the guy who two sources believe is a "high-level mole" in the Bonanno family -- active and on the street.

Bonanno family, you've been warned...
