Real Mob Wife Takes Us Inside "Mob Wives"

By Ed Scarpo
An anonymous source who knows a lot about VH1's Mob Wives cast members recently contacted us.

What annoys her (she's a true "Mob Wife") is the idea that some of the women on Mob Wives may actually serve as role models for young women.

"First off, understand: They are not Mob Wives. None of them."

The "old" cast is new... almost.

"They are all liars and everyone on Staten Island has no respect for them. And how they chased her father because of the show!

Our source was in talks to appear on the show, earlier in its run. Her efforts never panned out.

She realized that they probably would have wanted her to provoke a feud with one of the other women. 

"Then I'd have to beat her brains in on national TV and I and my family said I've always carried myself with class and dignity. I don't act like that."

We agree. We don't like women fighting each other. Think of the manicured nails!

"No Italian guy will go near them!" our source added. "They are slobs who have been locked up, who are on drugs and who sleep with married men for years.

"They sell their souls for cash! I was brought up in a different environment. The men in my family were real classy and real old time.

"I don't play their game, they were girls I knew but were never my friends, or even acquaintances, if you will."

The sexy Love....

Remember the hubbub about Love?
"Carla was suing them, Renee, Love and Jen, she went crying to VH1. Now she's going to be back on the show. Frauds all of them.

"Renee lied about going to rehab. She never went. Liar.

"They fired Love for beating up Carla but that's why they hired her ... then Jen and her partner were supposedly robbing money from Vh1 and they threw Love under the bus because the rat Carla was gonna sue them.

"And Renee's father from the streets is no longer involved, they threw him to the dogs because he allows his daughters to do the show.

"So these are the women young girls should look up to. 

"Karen arrested for drugs, Jennifer arrested for drugs, Renee is on junk and slept with married men. Carla is a slob who slept with married men and ex-husbands for years. 

"Drita I don't know.

"So my point here is, enough with idolizing trash. Oh and none are mob wives! Ok I'm done."

    This blog is, in a way, a similar role model by the way it chronicles , discusses, and indirectly celebrates the machinations of organized crime. No?

    DAYUM! So Renee talks about Carla sleeping with married men & she does it herself! Yes Love did exactly what she was hired to do! Which was sad, then they hired another nut to do the same thing! I don't blame Carla for threatening a law suit, but then again, why would she come back?

    Is that Toni Marie Ricci? She really is going in Carla. Carla may or may not have slept with her husband, but didn't he leave her for another woman & had a baby by her while he was still married to Toni & is still married to this very day? Dayum all she does is talk bad about Carla but, doesn't even mention the real husband stealer!

    I disagree. Seriously, can you give me one example of where I celebrate Cosa Nostra? Lot of people have that perception, which is why I use a pseudonym.

    To not 'celebrate' organized crime would be to eliminate this blog and all kinds like. Eliminate books and movies like Godfather, Sopranos, etc.
    In silence is where organized crime will flourish like it once did.

    You're a man? I want you to teach me about the life, You nit wit! Speaking about reading a blog, You ask questions like a little girl. The only thing you know about the life, is that your mother blows gangsters. Now that I spoke about your mother, Let's see what kind of man you are? Personally and I don't think, I know, You're a BLOW JOB!!!! Period!

    Way too much internet gangsters. No disrespect to anyone but everyone should stay in their lane and respect each other because 99% of people on here won't bust a grape in a fruit fight. You can respectfully disagree with each other but all this tough tony shit is getting carried away. If anyone has a problem with this.... You can catch me on Bloomfield ave in Newark or cianci st, downtown paterson. No threats made. But I know some jerkoff is bound to talk foolish.

    Wow I couldn't agree more. Are you sure this wasn't myself who said all this. I honestly feel this woman took the words out of my mouth. I was brought up the exact same way. I was asked to be on as well but when I represented myself and what I stood for there was no interest. I would never make a spectacle of myself and embarass my family name. Guess I didn't make for good T.V. lol
    oh well.....

If Uncle Joe Retires What Happens in Philadelphia?

By Ed Scarpo
Joseph (Uncle Joe) Ligambi, who recently got out of prison following two mistrials for what primarily amounted to gambling-related charges, says that he is done, finito, with Cosa Nostra. He wants to drop the harness and relax, to summer in Longport and winter in Florida. In 1980, violence on the streets of Philadelphia rose sharply following boss Angelo Bruno's murder. Does Ligambi mean it? If he’s being sincere, then who will step in and take over?  Too many wiseguys, if history is our guide. The volatility for which the Philadelphia crime family was once well-known can return as swiftly as the time it takes to pull a trigger. Two generations historically at odds with each other have been working together (the old Scarfo gang and the Merlino young turks). The ability to rivet these two enclaves together is among the skills "Uncle Joe" is credited for having. But with or without him, shifts in power are inevitable as the family's composition changes (...

The Two Primary Qualitative Variables For Defining Ports Along International Drug Trafficking Routes

By Ed Scarpo
By Andrew Machin Large drug traffickers must make two payments in certain ports. One payment goes to corrupt dockworkers and law enforcement officials who enable drug shipments to pass with much less risk of being seized. The second payment is made to the criminal organization that controls the port. This second payment acts as a form of extortion, and its amount, whether in cash or in kind, is calculated based on the value or weight of each shipment. Typically, the two payments are combined into one total transaction, which is then distributed among the various parties involved. To understand the nature of these expenses and the contexts in which they must be paid, it is necessary to research the dynamics that unfold in ports along international drug trafficking routes. Any explanation must begin with some basic considerations. First, international drug trafficking consists of three successive macro phases: production, transportation, and distribution (money flows fall under each). Th...

Kitchen Nightmares Gangster Back In Business (Mob Business, That Is)

By Ed Scarpo
“Nobody is gonna go against them. They’d go head to head with anybody.” Source on Michael (Mikey Nose) Mancuso and his Administration in the Bonanno crime family. Bonanno mobster Peter (Peter Pasta) Pellegrino, a name you are familiar with if you have been watching Gordon Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares and reading Cosa Nostra News , is back in business—the gambling and shylocking business, though, not the restaurant business. Peter Pasta Pellegrino. (From Facebook.) In fact, Peter Pasta was among the Bonannos who benefitted from Michael (Mikey Nose) Mancuso 's reorganization of the crime family last Christmas, we've learned. Pellegrino was bumped from acting capo to official capo. He’s now overseeing a Bonanno crew in Florida and one allied with Albanians in Ridgewood, Queens. Also part of the Nose's Christmastime shakeup, Anthony (Bruno) Indelicato , the longtime Bonanno wiseguy who was a direct participant—he was one of the shooters—in the 1979 Carmine Galante murders, w...

Hoodwinked: Restaurateur on Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares Was a Mobster

By Ed Scarpo
Peter (Peter Pasta) Pellegrino, formerly of the Babylon, New York restaurant Peter’s Italian Restaurant, really is -- or was -- a gangster. Gordon gives a pep talk. Peter is ready for action..... The once-promising Bonanno crime family member who appeared in Kitchen Nightmares now calls himself a brokester . And the Bonanno crime family, with which he was once affiliated has disowned him. So has the rest of New York's Cosa Nostra, according to FBI documents and Peter Pasta himself. But before all that he appeared on an episode of Kitchen Nightmares in which he acted very much like the mobster he allegedly was trying to become around the time of filming. (See Peter's Italian Restaurant menu here .) Back then Peter Pasta was an up-and-coming Bonanno associate who "earned" $15 grand a week from bookmaking. At the time, he also owned two boats that he'd park in a pricey nearby Babylon harbor called Great South Bay. Gang Land News's Jerry  Capec...

Mob Wife Ex-Husband Hector Pagan In Brooklyn Halfway House With April 2021 Release Date

By Ed Scarpo
Back in 2014, despite the heartfelt pleas of a murdered man's daughter, Brooklyn Federal Judge John Gleeson sentenced Hector (Junior) Pagan to 11 years in prison —and offered a thoughtful comment. James Donovan was killed during a botched robbery in 2010. He said, “We can only hope” that by time Pagan is released “we have prepared him for re-entry into society to mitigate the risk” of what would happen if Pagan returned to a life of crime. How far Judge Gleeson's hope gets us is something we will discover very soon. The former Bonanno associate/Mob Wives bit player is getting out of the can in a few months..... He is currently residing at the Brooklyn RRM (a halfway house where he and other Federal offenders receive "community-based services that will assist with their reentry needs.") Pagan's official reentry date is April 18, 2021. Renee Graziano's ex-husband got a reduced sentence in 2014 because he flipped and testified against two cohorts who were involve...

Bonanno Boss's Prison Letters Kick Off Second Dominick Cicale Forum

By Ed Scarpo
"Mikey Nose" (Commenced 11am, Saturday, Jan. 10)... We can thank Michael "Mikey Nose" Mancuso for our starting point.... I don't think any other blog or news organization on the planet has ever gotten such direct insight from the man widely considered to be the official boss of the Bonanno family . The Nose is from the Bronx, where Vincent "Vinny Gorgeous" Basciano, either former acting boss or current official boss, hailed from.
