Mikie Scars Speaks....

In what we consider to be our most important contribution to the history of the American Cosa Nostra, we interviewed Michael "Mikie Scars" DiLeonardo about life in the Five Families -- specifically, the Gambino crime family when it was helmed by one of the most famous mob bosses of the 20th century, John Gotti.

Mikie Scars provided some interesting details about pre-Cosa Nostra history in America, too.

You will learn things you never knew or imagined about the Gambino crime family during the Gotti reign. (Such as Michael actually spells his name "Mikie"....)

Michael "Mikie Scars" DiLeonardo was a Gambino capo, close to Junior Gotti since before they were inducted in a Christmas Eve 1988 ceremony. The relationship carried on for decades until DiLeonardo was arrested.

Except for his turn on Trevor McDonald's ITV two-part Mafia documentary, he has never spoken publicly outside of testifying, to our knowledge.

Well, he talked to Costa Nostra News and you'll want to read what he said.
