- 2:14light hearted with the interview, right?
- 2:15This time, like I, I, I got to hit you with some actual kind of
- 2:19hard hitting questions this time around, like some serious and
- 2:22I'm not trying to piss you off. You're not going to get mad at
- 2:24all. Promise, man, this is a tough
- 2:27one. Just do it.
- 2:29OK, so you you know the fist, right?
- 2:32Like if you see like a fist, like if you make a fist for a
- 2:36lot of people it's like a a warning, right?
- 2:41Like if you take the fist, if you like make a fist for the
- 2:44camera show the camera yeah. And like hold it the side and
- 2:47like go up like that. And now you're at the Jersey
- 2:50Shore, right. Is that a real thing?
- 2:53I've. Never done that, so just tell
- 2:57everybody. Just tell everybody knows.
- 2:59Like back when we were in college, Jersey Shark came out
- 3:02and all that, all that. Like the gym?
- 3:04Tan laundry. All we hated them.
- 3:06Yeah, okay. Yeah, that's that's where we go
- 3:08with that because like everybody, like when we were in
- 3:10college, we were in Michigan, right?
- 3:12Everybody was doing the fist pumping.
- 3:14People had like the blowback hair and the.
- 3:17Not us, you know. That's what I'm saying.
- 3:19Like that wasn't really part of you guys this thing though,
- 3:21right? Listen, it's crazy because so
- 3:23many people say, oh, you got the Jersey accesses.
- 3:26No, we don't. This is the Brooklyn Queens
- 3:28accent. I says, yes, it's not Jersey
- 3:29Shore. We have nothing to do with that.
- 3:31We don't wear gels, spikes and fish, pump and break dances.
- 3:35Yeah, we're carrying guns, masks and frigging Yankee hats.
- 3:38Right? Totally different.
- 3:39So that piss you off then? Oh, we hated it, right?
- 3:41Really. We hated it, so there was nobody
- 3:44doing any of that. Kind of stuff in our area, no?
- 3:46No, no. Imagine a mob guy hanging out
- 3:48Ronnie and Vinny with spikes and dancing.
- 3:51That time they kill this guy, please.
- 3:53Even like like your friends growing up or whatnot, you know,
- 3:55I'm saying like. Nobody when we were younger,
- 3:57maybe 1615, everybody was like, you know, maybe something of
- 4:01that nature, but never to the point of that, like, yeah, now
- 4:05it's just. Right now, you know.
- 4:07OK, Yeah. So, so just everybody knows that
- 4:10was fake. Yeah, that real Italians you.
- 4:12Know there's no such thing, OK Yeah.
- 4:14And you know, a lot of the Jersey Showcase members aren't
- 4:16even Italian, right? You know that, right?
- 4:18Most of them not even Italian. You'd mentioned that, yeah.
- 4:20So who isn't? None of them.
- 4:22Are only like 3 of them are actually in half, not even full
- 4:25Italian and most of them are Irish on the show.
- 4:28OK, what do you think about that dude?
- 4:29The situation? Did he piss you off?
- 4:31Yeah, honestly, like now I like him 'cause I, you know, I, I see
- 4:34him now as a person. When he was first on the show, I
- 4:36would baseball bat him in the street.
- 4:38Like I, I hated him. Like, yeah, he's one of the ones
- 4:41where Paulie D is the only one I'd hang out with.
- 4:43Yeah, I would straight up just like hang out with him in the
- 4:45street. He's a cool dude, you know what
- 4:46I mean? If you ever actually run into
- 4:48him. And no, I never.
- 4:49Jay. Wow.
- 4:50I ran into in Club Glow in Long Island.
- 4:52She's a big girl. Really.
- 4:53Oh, yeah, She's tall. She's up there.
- 4:55And I ran into her in Club Glow 2012 and I was like, whoa, girl
- 5:00back is wide like this. Yeah.
- 5:02Damn. Yeah, she's pretty.
- 5:04Yes, she is. Yeah.
- 5:05Yeah. Yeah, we were fascinated by
- 5:07that. Like what?
- 5:08Like real Italians in New York actually thought about this,
- 5:12because the rest of the world are thinking, seeing this.
- 5:14I could tell you, I speak for everybody.
- 5:16When I was that neighbor. What?
- 5:17Hated it. Yeah, because people comparing
- 5:19it to, like, Italians. Oh, yeah, Your body.
- 5:21This guy doing the fit. I'm like, bro, we don't do that,
- 5:23right? Go out to club, though.
- 5:24Are you crazy? We're not doing that.
- 5:25I mean, so it was bad for us. OK, now as far as like the
- 5:31Italian culture, what would you say is a prominent part of it?
- 5:35You want to be honest with you? Our culture was more like this
- 5:38growing up. It's I'm going to be honest.
- 5:40It was for lawsuits. Reebok Classics, Sergio Dekini,
- 5:45like when we were younger, you know what I mean?
- 5:48What else would be our culture? Italian, Like our food we're
- 5:51known for like, you know, pastas, you know, anti pastas,
- 5:55you know, our stuff, Super sada. You know, that's more what I
- 5:58think of Italian culture, you know what I mean?
- 6:00For the mafia, our culture would be violence.
- 6:06That's what I think of. But as far as, like, dressing
- 6:08wise, we all wore the lawsuits. We all wore the same outfit.
- 6:11Pretty much everybody had feel of the laws.
- 6:13And you know, Reebok, that was just the way we dressed, you
- 6:15know? I mean, yeah, we never dressed
- 6:16like, you know those guys. Yeah, how do you stay so jacked
- 6:19when you're eating all this positive?
- 6:20So I don't know. You know what?
- 6:23I'm saying because that stuff catches up with you.
- 6:25Real. Yeah.
- 6:25I'll just say I think I think you're OK with the situation now
- 6:27because, you know, you're over there on Instagram and flexing
- 6:29those ants like this guy's Man of Steel over here, you know?
- 6:32Honestly, at first, when I used to watch that show, I couldn't
- 6:35stand him. Like I did watch a little bit.
- 6:36I hated him on the show. Now he's a different person, you
- 6:38know what I'm saying? I've seen how he, you know, he's
- 6:40a lot different now. But back in the day, he'd be a
- 6:42guy in the club of like blind side of this kid.
- 6:46Hey, you actually you brought up last time, did you know a story
- 6:49about that Ronnie guy, right? Yeah, You know, I had a lot of
- 6:51friends in the Bronx and I guess when he started making money and
- 6:54he got a little arrogant and cocky over there in the Bronx.
- 6:56He was driving like a Ferrari over there and stuff like that.
- 6:58Yeah. And he went into some tough guys
- 7:00and got TK OED out cold. They knocked him out cold in
- 7:05Bronx. When was that?
- 7:07Probably 2012, I want to say 2013.
- 7:09Around that time we heard about it in the neighborhood that he's
- 7:12Spanish. He's not Italian at all.
- 7:13He's Spanish. Yeah, he's Spanish.
- 7:15He got knocked. Yeah.
- 7:17Yeah, I'm saying no, this case is.
- 7:19Holy. Full Spanish.
- 7:21That's a fact. Yeah, yeah, he got knocked out
- 7:23cold in the Bronx by somebody. Holy.
- 7:25Yeah. So he's not even Italian
- 7:28something. Dude, a lot of people.
- 7:29Don't look. He's nothing of Italian.
- 7:31She's not nothing. No.
- 7:32Is that just play tanning? No.
- 7:33No tan, no Italian enough. What is she?
- 7:36Chili or something like that. Really.
- 7:37Yeah. She was adopted by an Italian
- 7:39family. She's not Italian.
- 7:40How did you find all this stuff? I mean, we want to know because
- 7:42we're getting aggravated that we're compared to these people
- 7:44and none of them are Italian this.
- 7:45Is the first time it's been brought up, Yeah.
- 7:47J Woww's full Irish. Yeah, Vinny's, Vinny's full
- 7:50Italian. Pull these half half and my
- 7:53situation's full. I believe that's it.
- 7:55OK. What do you think of like that
- 7:57represents the Italian culture of the?
- 7:58Cappuccino, all right. Al Pacino, definitely.
- 8:01I mean, he's the man. That's it.
- 8:02That's what I think of first actor.
- 8:04Yeah. Cuz Robert Dino isn't Italian.
- 8:05A lot of people don't know that. Yeah.
- 8:07Do you think he is? He's not.
- 8:08My grandfather goes. He's not even Italian.
- 8:10My grandfather, he's not Italian.
- 8:12He's German. He's to go or something like
- 8:14that, you know? Cuz he's not you.
- 8:15I always thought he was Italian. So my grandfather told me he's
- 8:17not Italian. Yeah.
- 8:19Yeah. He's played the roles, you know.
- 8:20Yeah. Do you miss being in the scene
- 8:22in New York? Do you miss?
- 8:24Do you miss the area? This era, No.
- 8:26No, not I mean. When I was younger, yeah, I love
- 8:28New York. Now it's it's horrible.
- 8:30Yeah. My neighborhood isn't even the
- 8:31same. Everybody's dying of fentanyl
- 8:33where I'm from right now. That wasn't even allowed when we
- 8:35were over there. Yeah, if we were in the
- 8:37neighborhood still, right, and the mob was still deep, like it
- 8:39was let's just say 2003, even 2004, and we found out that
- 8:43somebody selling a drug that's killing people, right, we would
- 8:46beat him and tell him you have two options.
- 8:48You're going to leave now or die now.
- 8:50It's that simple. Like it doesn't happen no more.
- 8:53There's nobody had to protect the neighborhood no more.
- 8:55So all these kids are doing drugs with fentanyl and dying.
- 8:57Why? Why would they chase them right
- 8:59out? Yeah, there's nobody chased them
- 9:01out. But like why?
- 9:02Why would they even pick that in the 1st place knowing that it's
- 9:04like heroin? Why would you just knowing that
- 9:06it's going to kill you? You don't live one life, you
- 9:08know. That's when I said I don't
- 9:09understand it. And all my friends are dropping
- 9:11like flies. Every kid I grew up with, that's
- 9:12our age. I'll be 40 in June, right?
- 9:15Yeah. Every kid I grew up with,
- 9:16they're all dead, really. Not being shot.
- 9:18Drugs. Drugs.
- 9:20That's crazy because like with fentanyl, I mean it, you can do
- 9:22it once boom. It sounds like a.
- 9:23Little Dead. Yeah, it's not like, you know,
- 9:25you're smoking crack for 40 years.
- 9:27That's like, you know, you hit it once and you can drive.
- 9:29That's it. It could be an Xanax, right?
- 9:31Dead. You don't wake, it's insane.
- 9:32You know it, it's sick and I I it bugs me out because I
- 9:35remember when I was younger in Howard Beach, if Peter Dottie,
- 9:39my Co defendant was one of the little Gotti kids, John Gotti
- 9:43the third, and his father was like the toughest guy in the
- 9:45neighborhood. Like he was brutal.
- 9:46I always talk about that. He was you see his black
- 9:48expedition, everybody. It's like Debo coming and was
- 9:50like this. They just start running.
- 9:52Oh, Peter's here straight up. That's how scared they were this
- 9:55guy. And if he even seemed like a
- 9:57weed bag. One time he found his son, found
- 10:00the weed bag and they found out. Not that this kid Country sold
- 10:03it. Country was about 6 foot 6 to
- 10:04180 lbs. All of a sudden one day we're in
- 10:08the park. We see like 7 calls of people
- 10:11come. They locked the park down, all
- 10:12of us in it because they want us to witness something.
- 10:15Who's that? Peter Gotti Junior, Rogerio, the
- 10:17whole, the whole clique, the whole Gambino clique, the Gotti
- 10:20regime and all the kids, all the John Gotti senior, all their his
- 10:24crew's kids, they all hung out together.
- 10:26So they locked the park down. They bring Country into the park
- 10:31where we all sit us down. Peter goes, I want you to watch
- 10:33something. This is what happens when you
- 10:34sell drugs in my neighborhood. They beat this guy so bad in
- 10:38front of us. We were like 15, pummeled him,
- 10:41screaming, beating him, three men and left him in a puddle of
- 10:44blood in front of us. And this is what happens.
- 10:46It's a nickel bag of weed. That's it.
- 10:49And pummeled him in front of us. And just.
- 10:50This is what happens when you sell drugs in my neighborhood.
- 10:53Wow. And then I was like, I was
- 10:54scared, but that changed. Everybody started going to jail,
- 10:57but I left. It wasn't like that no more.
- 10:59When we were coming up, you knew if you did something wrong in
- 11:02that park on Howard Beach, you were getting a beat and you were
- 11:05getting dealt with. Is no more of that everyone just
- 11:07doing what they want, you know? Yeah.
- 11:09It's changed so much. You know, the Mafia is obviously
- 11:12bad, it's a criminal organization, but in a way they
- 11:15control the area as far as keeping the gangs go wild,
- 11:19right? There's Dr. Bys all over the
- 11:20place. The mafia at least controlled
- 11:22the area and they had morals. I guess you could say St. morals
- 11:26or rules of conduct that street gang people didn't have right?
- 11:30I agree with you, but there's always a bad seed.
- 11:32There's always going to be somebody that's not going to,
- 11:34you know, keep the neighborhood good.
- 11:36But for the most part, that's what we did.
- 11:38Yes. Yeah, You know what I mean?
- 11:39We would get in trouble. Like I said, civilians.
- 11:41You can't do that. You know what I'm saying?
- 11:43You don't pick on harmless people.
- 11:44That's not what we're about. Ronnie G We show against
- 11:46bullies. If he found out you were a
- 11:47bully, he was wrecking you. He'll get you beat up against
- 11:50bullying. You didn't like that.
- 11:51We're not like that. Yeah, we're very against that.
- 11:53So that's gonna be shocking to a lot of people hearing that, you
- 11:55know? Yeah, because they, they hear
- 11:57about the violence, they see the newspaper articles.
- 11:59And so it's crazy to think that, you know, this violent guy or
- 12:03these violent guys hate bullies, right?
- 12:06Ronnie, Ronnie would tell me like if he found out.
- 12:09So you hit a homeless dude guy and you can't defend himself.
- 12:12What are you doing? Are you?
- 12:13He'll go crazy and he'll go after you.
- 12:15Ronnie's hands on tough guy, he'll go after you.
- 12:18You picking on homeless people do that to me.
- 12:20Really. We were like that, you know, we
- 12:21don't like that. You know what I mean?
- 12:22People didn't know that. Yeah, it's very true.
- 12:25I'll give him that. Man, he was so against bullying,
- 12:27and so was I We're not gonna pick on some homeless dude.
- 12:29You're gonna slap somebody. Look cool.
- 12:30You know he's gonna defend himself.
- 12:31Yeah, go slap. Someone's gonna defend himself,
- 12:33right? Go slap Chris Kegdotter in the
- 12:35face. See what happens to you.
- 12:36Yeah, well, Bobby Gee or somebody, you know you ain't
- 12:38gonna do that. Don't pick on somebody harmless,
- 12:40you know what I'm saying? Did that go with civilians as
- 12:43well? Yeah.
- 12:44So it could be a civilian bully, but you guys would still.
- 12:46Still step in, you know, because I remember one time I, I got put
- 12:49in a in a bad spot. So Ronnie's son, little Ronnie,
- 12:54he his father was gone and he's telling me make sure you look
- 12:57after my son. He's at that age now where
- 12:59they're getting little park fights and things are happening.
- 13:01So I'm stressed out because he wants you to buy him street
- 13:03bikes. I'm like, bro, you die on his
- 13:04bike. I'm dead.
- 13:05Like when I get your street bikes and I take the one with my
- 13:07750, he's taking my car, sneaking off with it.
- 13:10I'm like, bro, you're going to get me killed, man.
- 13:11You got to just calm down. Anyway, so he's getting into
- 13:14little situations and he got into a fight with a kid.
- 13:16The kid was like 22 years old and Ronnie was like 1617 but the
- 13:22kid was a herb. A bite herb What's?
- 13:24Her like a punk. He wasn't really tough, but
- 13:26Ronnie heard about it that his son kind of got into an
- 13:29altercation. Now I was like, listen, I got to
- 13:34handle it, but the kids are Herb.
- 13:36I feel bad slapping this kid because him and Ronnie got into
- 13:39a little situation and the kid was just like, I guess
- 13:41disrespected him and whatever had happened and supposedly they
- 13:44shoved each other. But the kid was older.
- 13:45The kid wasn't like a tough guy. So now Ronnie wants me to beat
- 13:48this kid up. I'm in a bad spot.
- 13:52He's by beach from tan and salon and the end cross Bay and I'm
- 13:56like, all right, let me just get this kid in the back.
- 13:58I felt so bad, bro. I'm gonna say this to everybody.
- 14:01He's in the driver's seat door. I wrote.
- 14:03I knock on a thing. His face turns wise or loosely
- 14:05fake, but he knows what? Of course, as you hit my
- 14:08friend's son, you can see him like, And I had to jab him in
- 14:13the head. I felt so bad.
- 14:14He says, listen, I'm sorry, but I got to hit you.
- 14:17You can't do that. Don't ever do that again.
- 14:19But I'm sorry for doing this to you.
- 14:20I don't want to hit you because I'm on a bully.
- 14:22I was telling him, but I have to hit you.
- 14:24You have to know people. You don't quit.
- 14:25You know what I'm saying? I would say isn't that a weird
- 14:27dynamic how like how life operates, you know, you have the
- 14:31the mafia, but they're keeping the neighborhood safe from
- 14:34outside garbage nowadays, However, they kind of now the
- 14:38area isn't no one's really manning it anymore, right?
- 14:40So. It's done, it's done.
- 14:42It's a chaos now. There's nothing like when I tell
- 14:45you there's no structure. You back in Two O 7 Park.
- 14:48You couldn't come to the park unless you were from Howard
- 14:49Beach. We check your ID, you're not
- 14:52coming. Over there, as in the mob guys.
- 14:54Like the neighborhood kids, okay, we were like, so together
- 14:57we all hung out at 207 Park. That was like a nightclub
- 15:00almost. We were all at that park, you
- 15:01know what I mean? So it's just so different now
- 15:03bro. Did you ever have like, street
- 15:05gangs come around trying to come around like?
- 15:08We had one incident where I tried to kill him, Nelson, Cruz,
- 15:12Nellie, I tried to shoot him that.
- 15:13What's What's Nellie? He was a crip kid.
- 15:15A crip kid. So yeah, the the Crips came to.
- 15:17Your 1 he was coming around. He got to the park.
- 15:19He was like robbing little kids in the neighborhood, really
- 15:22snatching their chains, doing screwed up.
- 15:24And the kids were coming to me. I just came home.
- 15:26I'm home six months. Yeah.
- 15:27And they're coming to me saying, Gene this kids.
- 15:29I says let me talk to him. I went to Vinny.
- 15:31I told Vinny goes go talk to him.
- 15:33Tell him to take that out the neighborhood.
- 15:34I went to go see him. He like wise off like this ain't
- 15:37the 80s. Like you don't run no more.
- 15:38Where were you at when you went and you went to go see him?
- 15:42To Ozone Park, to the village, That's where he hung out.
- 15:44So I went over to see him. I said, let me talk to he says,
- 15:46listen, all due respect, I said, you're coming into our area and
- 15:49you're robbing little kids. We're not with that, you know,
- 15:51just we ain't regular white people.
- 15:53You know what I mean? Like this is not like a a
- 15:55regular white community like you.
- 15:56Right, this is a suburb. This is a suburb, but like, you
- 15:59know what's in this suburb? Like, you know, you're coming
- 16:01over, you're disrespected. And my people are getting mad.
- 16:03And he basically told me like, he's with his boys.
- 16:05I'm not on Army. And he's like, this ain't the
- 16:0680s. You don't run no more.
- 16:08How old was he? My age, OK, I said alright, you
- 16:11got that? I said OK.
- 16:12I went back in my car. I went to Vinny.
- 16:14I told Vinny. Vinny.
- 16:15She goes go kill him when you see him just like that.
- 16:18Kill him when you see him. I tried to blow his head off in
- 16:20broad daylight with a 357 snub by my social club in broad
- 16:23daylight in front of everybody. He jumped to the ground.
- 16:25I thought I shot him in the head.
- 16:26I took off the bird. I never shot this guy a gun like
- 16:29that before. It's so loud and strong it sound
- 16:31like a bomb going off. That's like The Dirty hairy gun
- 16:33the but. I had to snub though not the
- 16:35long, but it was still so strong.
- 16:36It was like a hand can and I remember like it was yesterday
- 16:39and I was with somebody and I got cameras all over my club at
- 16:42by my social club and I'm more paranoid.
- 16:44I think I just blew this guy's head off and Long story short, I
- 16:47get out of there, I raised his hand.
- 16:49I just took his Mellon off. This note ends up happening six
- 16:52months later. He killed a cop.
- 16:54Really 22 year veteran? No, she killed a cop, so you
- 16:57never know who you're dealing with.
- 16:58But I chased him out of there. I got him out today, but he knew
- 17:01he was serious, right? I end up seeing him like a month
- 17:03later after he did that. I was sitting on him waiting
- 17:05where I catch this guy kept saying wherever I see him, I'm
- 17:08shooting him. That's why I'm told to do I'm
- 17:10getting him. I seen him by the club.
- 17:11He turned right into me like this.
- 17:13He's seen that Chrome thing right in his face.
- 17:16Yeah. And, you know, let us know we're
- 17:17not regular people, that you're gonna come in our area and
- 17:21embarrass and abuse us. But we don't have that no more,
- 17:23correct? That's gone.
- 17:24There's no more of that. You know what I mean?
- 17:25So. It's pretty crazy that somebody
- 17:27would have the balls to come to a mafia neighborhood and think
- 17:30that they can get away with that type of.
- 17:32They think it's washed up. That's why it's I know there's
- 17:34still the hell that's still there though, right?
- 17:36We would still like that. And I tell everyone that cuz
- 17:38everyone's like, oh, the mafia ain't the same, he said.
- 17:39Well, the micro and see if we're not the same.
- 17:41I just tell everybody that the mall bank the same Riley G's
- 17:44crew and see if we're not the same.
- 17:45I bet you'd be running for your life.
- 17:48It's that simple. It only takes, you know, a
- 17:49couple of people to change everything, you know what I
- 17:51mean? Do you think the fact that like
- 17:53the mob guys are clean caught? You know what I mean?
- 17:57Good looking dudes, you know, well shaved, well dressed, take
- 18:01care of themselves. Do you think the appearance
- 18:03factor presented to the public is the reason why a lot of
- 18:08people, they look at you guys in a different light than they look
- 18:11at a street game with the the face tattoos and all the other?
- 18:14Do you know what I'm saying? Like of course you guys present
- 18:17yourself differently, right? Like.
- 18:19Yeah, it's like without hoodlums, you know what I'm
- 18:20saying? They're not, they have their own
- 18:22thing, you know, they're not structured.
- 18:23They have no organization or like or they're not organized at
- 18:26all. Yeah, they use the free fall
- 18:27over there. They're over there just
- 18:28shooting. They'll do a drive by and shoot
- 18:30everybody but the person. Yeah, kids getting shot,
- 18:33everything. So that's not how we operate.
- 18:34And I mean, I mean, that had happened to me before by
- 18:37Albanians that we had spoke about that, and they made me do
- 18:39the same thing back because of what they did.
- 18:41You know what I'm saying? But we don't operate like that
- 18:43usually. Yeah.
- 18:44I mean, the tattoos on our face, you know, we're supposed to be
- 18:46clean shaved at all times. Yeah.
- 18:48You're with a wise guy in a crew.
- 18:49You're in a restaurant. There's no beards like we have
- 18:52now. That's not allowed.
- 18:53Why is that clean shave? It's just a time thing.
- 18:55They're they're rules, OK. It's the way I want you clean
- 18:58shaved. You know what I mean?
- 18:59You know, and I see yelled at a lot because I dress like a
- 19:01little bit of a rapper. My swag is a little you do not a
- 19:05rapper, but my swag is like not like theirs a little bit like
- 19:09they're wearing suit. You know, the older guys wearing
- 19:10suits, like when I got older, I'm wearing like Dior, you know,
- 19:14I'm dressed in like a little different.
- 19:15They didn't really like it, you know what I mean?
- 19:17I was dressed in more like like up to date with fashion.
- 19:20You were just changed. You were to a different era,
- 19:23right? It was just a different.
- 19:24Type of Ronnie. Like what the is that?
- 19:26Like what? He's a Gucci shoes rapper.
- 19:30Big Bezel, What do you think you 50 said used to go off from
- 19:34high. Whatever, get a gold
- 19:37presidential. No diamonds.
- 19:39Yeah. It's too flashy, Yeah.
- 19:41What did you think when you walked around the city?
- 19:44Could you tell somebody who was a mob guy based on how they
- 19:46presented them something, how they dressed and whatnot?
- 19:48No, but if I talk to them, it's very easy lingo because once you
- 19:52catch all. Where you from?
- 19:53I'm from Middle Village. All right, we start talking,
- 19:55blah, blah, blah. Oh, who you hang out with over
- 19:57there? I hang out with so and so.
- 19:58Oh, you hang out with them? Yeah.
- 19:59Oh, I hang out over here. Boom.
- 20:01It's it's simple. OK.
- 20:02You basically telling each other we're around somebody.
- 20:04So you don't think you don't go to places and you're like think
- 20:07that guy look dresses like a gangster or something like.
- 20:09I mean not. Even you, for example, the week
- 20:12you never were like trying to look like a gangster.
- 20:14No, I mean the neighborhoods, you know, when you go in certain
- 20:16neighborhoods. Yeah.
- 20:17When you go into places, you know that.
- 20:19I know what's what. You know what I'm saying?
- 20:21Yeah. No, I can't pinch somebody out
- 20:22by their clothes, you know what I'm saying?
- 20:23No. Back in the day, actually, in
- 20:25the 80s, you can. In the 90s, more.
- 20:27Yeah, more 'cause they wore three piece suits.
- 20:31I saw my grandfather. How do you chase somebody in tap
- 20:33shoes? Cockroach killers, all that
- 20:37these things and suspenders. I'm like, what the I could never
- 20:43dress like that. You might do in a baseball bat
- 20:45chasing the guy with with tattoos on.
- 20:49We will say though, there are guys on social media that try to
- 20:52play the part of a mommy. There's some fat dude like Big
- 20:55Joe or something like they they. Which one is that?
- 20:58There's so many out there. One of them, but you know, they,
- 21:00they dress like, you know what I'm saying?
- 21:03Like overboard trying to see. How I dress right I come yet
- 21:06right Jordan ones all style clothes.
- 21:08I would never win a like cartoon character suit.
- 21:11That's not me. That's, we call that the
- 21:12gangster * OK. Yeah.
- 21:13And that's what it look like. Yeah.
- 21:15Look at the guy, Ramadi. I was saying, Francis, he has a
- 21:17cigar in his hand. It's not lit.
- 21:18It's never lit, OK. He has a lawsuit on from the
- 21:2180s, I swear to God. And he tells these ridiculous
- 21:23stories and it's like, it's it's outrageous almost some of the
- 21:26guys they're coming out with as they just want to be like out
- 21:29there knowing Meanwhile, we've really been through this stuff.
- 21:31So it gets us mad for the real ones that really do this stuff.
- 21:34And this guy's the one. He killed the pulp.
- 21:36He did this. He's on Vlad TV talking all this
- 21:38nonsense and, you know, it gets us all met.
- 21:40Like the guys that are really a part of this.
- 21:42You know what I'm saying for sure.
- 21:43So I, like I said, the ones that I know that are valid is the
- 21:47ones that I talk with and hang out with.
- 21:49We were on Rico indictments. We were on federal cases.
- 21:52We cooperated. We gave profits.
- 21:54That's the only way you could admit to murders on TV.
- 21:57Yeah. You can't just go, oh, yeah,
- 21:58hey, I killed so and so I killed this guy.
- 22:00The feds will be like, wait, that's not solved.
- 22:02Go lock him up. It's like it's not rocking, you
- 22:05know what I'm saying? You did proffers and you get
- 22:08coverage for all your crimes. That's why I could sit here with
- 22:10you today and say I shot so and so.
- 22:12I killed this guy because I got coverage on it.
- 22:15Correct. Now people do know and might not
- 22:17know what a proffer is. Just briefly explain that.
- 22:19So if they don't, they don't know.
- 22:21I'll break it down for them so they can understand when guys
- 22:23are foolish and they're not. When you, let's say, use the two
- 22:26prosecutors, whatever, I'm going to sit with you.
- 22:28We're going to sign a contract. Everything I tell you is
- 22:31covered, which means you cannot use it against me.
- 22:34So I could tell you I shot 97,000 people, I killed 100
- 22:37guys. I get coverage on it.
- 22:39You give them the names, the details, they go investigate it,
- 22:41make sure it's real. You plea out to your top
- 22:44charges. You go in front of a judge, you
- 22:46have to talk to a federal judge and you plea out to all your
- 22:49crimes and you have coverage now.
- 22:51Then after you you help the government and the your case is
- 22:55over you go and get sentenced by a federal judge and then he will
- 22:58sentence you. Your guidelines will be
- 22:59outrageous, but because you have a 5K letter, they can now give
- 23:03you anything they want from one day to 100 years.
- 23:06You never know what you're going to get.
- 23:07It's up to the federal judge. So that's why I could come on TV
- 23:10and say, yeah, I killed so and so.
- 23:11I did so and so because I already profit on it and I gave
- 23:14coverage. If you never had a Rico
- 23:16racketeering case, if you never sat with a prosecutor, you
- 23:19cannot come on TV and say, I shot this guy, I killed this
- 23:21guy. I did this because the feds
- 23:23would go, go see where those are.
- 23:25That's unsolved. Go lock him up when he walks out
- 23:27of a live TV's office. Correct 100.
- 23:29Percent. That's it.
- 23:30It's that simple, you know what I'm saying?
- 23:31So it's common sense that he's full of shit, and a lot of guys
- 23:34are. The real ones is the ones that
- 23:36are from the five boroughs mostly.
- 23:37And we're on racketeering cases where you could look us up, even
- 23:40John Panisi, me, Anthony Arolotta, my cousin Anthony,
- 23:43Dominic Sakali, Sammy the bull, Mike Francis, Johnny, a light
- 23:48hoodie. We were on Rico racketeering
- 23:50cases with murders, robber, you know, the whole 9 yards.
- 23:53Pled out to it and got coverage on it.
- 23:55That's why we can talk in the public, OK?
- 23:57And that's it. There's no other way around it,
- 23:59correct? OK, Speaking of John Elite,
- 24:02yeah. Do you guys ever go out together
- 24:05all the time? Like say you go out to clubs and
- 24:07stuff. Yeah, restaurants.
- 24:08Everything. Break break it down for people
- 24:10like that or listen at home like you guys Mackin on women like
- 24:12all over the club like they they talk about like what you guys do
- 24:15and like. During COVID, we were doing the
- 24:16show right. There was still some restaurants
- 24:18like that were starting to open up again.
- 24:20So we'd be out in the nice restaurants in the city of time.
- 24:23And the young women love him. Yeah.
- 24:26They think he's so good looking because when I when my mom and
- 24:29them were all younger and my Aunt Connie and they all hung
- 24:32out and they used to say like all the girls went crazy over
- 24:34him. Yeah.
- 24:34That he was like, you know, all the girls, you know, were in
- 24:36love with him. And it's still the that weights
- 24:38that he's 62 years old and all like this 25 year olds like, yo,
- 24:43he's hot. And I'm like what the?
- 24:44No, no. So like when you guys go out,
- 24:47are you, like, drinking together?
- 24:48Like, are you mad on women? Like, yeah.
- 24:50Talk about like describe the night that John and Jean go out
- 24:53to like a nice restaurant. Yeah, hang out, you know, a lot
- 24:55of people. And, you know, he's a very
- 24:57recognized face. Like I'm recognized, but not as
- 24:59much he is because he's he travels the world and does this
- 25:02stuff. So he's very recognized.
- 25:03He's he's probably got hundreds of millions of views on the
- 25:06Internet. Yeah, where I'm at, like 30-40
- 25:08million, which is still a lot, you know what I'm saying?
- 25:09But he's like very recognized. Yeah.
- 25:11And I mean, so where he goes, people really, oh, Johnny Eli,
- 25:14like they know exactly. You know, he was all over the
- 25:16newspapers every day when he was testifying.
- 25:18You know, I mean, that was like a huge trial with John Junior,
- 25:21right? You know, so like I said, when
- 25:23you go out, a lot of people recognize.
- 25:24So people are coming up to you guys, absolutely.
- 25:26Those pictures, you know. Yeah bro, I I remember I was
- 25:30getting. Pictures, pictures, autographs.
- 25:32Yes, really, that's what the government was getting mad
- 25:34about. Could you blame them?
- 25:37No, honestly. I mean get glorified autographs.
- 25:41My mother even said they actually take a picture of what
- 25:43your shots about. It's sick.
- 25:46Come out. They're like, this world is
- 25:48dumb. Oh, wow, John, you love.
- 25:50You shot this guy in the hand. Oh, my God.
- 25:53I love you, man. That's so awesome.
- 25:57Wow. You hit him in the head with a
- 25:58meat cleaver. Oh, my God.
- 26:00And there's a little weird dynamic.
- 26:03Yeah, it is. But we heard each other.
- 26:05But I understand people glorify the Mafia and you know, like it
- 26:08says, you know, they love these stories.
- 26:10You know, people eat them up. You know, they love it and it's
- 26:12true stories and they know the ones that are true or not.
- 26:14Every message I get is always like genius, so genuine.
- 26:17The things you say, like you mean the guys from the
- 26:19neighborhood, they'll message me on the low, Yo, I remember that.
- 26:21You know, that was so funny, you know what I mean?
- 26:23So they know the real ones and the fake ones.
- 26:25And for the most part, Johnny Eli, and I'm not just saying it
- 26:28because he's my friend. When I was growing up in that
- 26:30neighborhood and Hoodie, you could take anyone's grow up in
- 26:33that neighborhood, people were absolutely terrified of him,
- 26:36terrified of him. And he wasn't even Italian.
- 26:38He was with the Mafia, but he was extremely feared.
- 26:42And when I tell you shootings, I mean, I don't even know how many
- 26:46people he shot. It's like somewhere in the 40s.
- 26:48I don't it's a lot. So his work was known and he
- 26:51gets knocked a lot because you know, the Gotti family, they're
- 26:54a very big name and they try to make him look like a liar, you
- 26:56know what I'm saying? So.
- 26:57Now, when they say he was just out, did he carry himself?
- 27:00Because he seems like he's very charismatic and it was cool.
- 27:03Seems like, you know, it was coffee and stuff.
- 27:05Obviously when he was in that life and he knew that he had
- 27:08that presence, right? When he was out with people, did
- 27:10he still joke around and have fun?
- 27:12But people knew like, hey man, I'm not going to brush the
- 27:14Heather round. I mean, that's what all of us,
- 27:15this is the thing at the end of the day, like we'll hang out
- 27:17with regular people, but then they always dig in the back of
- 27:19their mind, well, this guy is a killer.
- 27:21Just because you cooperate doesn't mean like abracadabra.
- 27:24Now you're not a murderer no more.
- 27:25You know, OK, I even told everyone I said, you know, we
- 27:28still, we still have our balls, which is not like doing that no
- 27:31more. But you're not going to abuse
- 27:32us. And everyone kind of knows that,
- 27:34you know, I mean, like we're cool.
- 27:35I'm I'm super down there. You would never know I'm a bad
- 27:37guy until I'm mad. I'm usually just hanging out,
- 27:39smiling, laughing. But I'm not letting nobody abuse
- 27:41me. And when you try to abuse them,
- 27:43you'll see the lunatics come out of us.
- 27:45When you try that, nobody's going to.
- 27:48Nobody's ever walked up to me. Oh, my grandpa's gave me says
- 27:50you're a rat to my face. It's not been done yet.
- 27:53I've seen guys that know me from that past life and they
- 27:56literally like this to me. Like other mob guys Like mob.
- 27:59Guys, Oh yeah, there was one. I can't say.
- 28:01And like I won't put his name out there.
- 28:03Like he literally looked at me and just like.
- 28:06He loved me. What meaning what though?
- 28:07Like. What, like I can't say hello to
- 28:09you, but like, you know what's up?
- 28:11I loved you. Like, you know what I'm saying?
- 28:12And you know, like, not like you and my boy, like, you know, you
- 28:14were a good mother. I was a good on the street, man,
- 28:17you know, it was hard for me to do what I did.
- 28:18I had a lot of respect, man, you know, the guys talking into
- 28:21that. But the real me, I looked out
- 28:22for everybody when they were in jail.
- 28:24I did a lot, lot for people, you know.
- 28:25So when they see me, they don't me and they know I'm a nut.
- 28:28You're not gonna just abuse me, correct?
- 28:29We're fighting like you're gonna get a fight out of me if that's
- 28:31you looking for, you know, I mean, so that's how I carry
- 28:34myself on that I'll laugh with you all day.
- 28:36We'll hang out, party, have fun, you know?
- 28:38Yeah, Speaking of fighting, we were talking about this as well.
- 28:41Did you ever train in anything like boxing?
- 28:44Karate Kid what I did karate as a kid, but.
- 28:46Is that like your base of like learning how to fight?
- 28:49Because like a lot of guys, they don't know how to fight.
- 28:50I'm not just saying like, not that everyone has to be a boxer
- 28:53or martial artist, but some people, they just don't have it,
- 28:56you know what I'm saying? They don't have to throw a
- 28:57punch. Like how did you get?
- 28:59It well, I was an athlete, so I throw a baseball. 85 miles an
- 29:02hour all about. I throw a football over 55
- 29:04yards. I could do it for you whenever
- 29:06you want. So I have a really strong right
- 29:08arm. I don't have a good left.
- 29:10I have a really hard right. So if I hit you with my right
- 29:12and you stay up, I'm gonna pull a weapon out.
- 29:16All right, So that's it. I have a hard right and I'm
- 29:18willing. You know what I'm saying?
- 29:20That's what it's all about. Like I, I I'm not saying I'm
- 29:22gonna be the, I'm this great fighter, but I'm not backing
- 29:24down from you and I'm gonna fight you.
- 29:26It's that mentality. It's that mentality and I am
- 29:28most of the time gonna use a weapon like in jail scenarios.
- 29:32I don't wanna take a loss. So I'm I'm going to use some.
- 29:35I'm gonna try to use some on. You what age was your first like
- 29:37real fight where you're like? Young like how 1011 we were
- 29:41fighting in school got real one, but I've been fighting since I'm
- 29:43young. So you came up just swinging?
- 29:45Yeah, just swinging. I've lost a lot of fights.
- 29:47Yeah, I'm saying this is not like I never lied to nobody.
- 29:50Like I'm 37 and all what I mean, that's a lie.
- 29:53I'm saying I I lost multiple fights.
- 29:55A lot of dudes, just regular guys out there are afraid, are
- 29:58afraid to fight. You know what I mean?
- 29:59Like it's just a general like all guys are afraid to fight,
- 30:01you know, I mean, never been a fight before.
- 30:03They just go through their whole life, you know, never knowing
- 30:06what it's like to be in a violent, serious situation, you
- 30:09know? I mean, they don't know how to
- 30:10throw a punch, you know? Only one thing I could say.
- 30:12I never been knocked out. Yeah, I've been dazed.
- 30:14I've never been, like, snored. Yeah, knocked out cold.
- 30:16I never, never had that, not even in jail.
- 30:19Even when you were jumped. Yeah, never been knocked out.
- 30:21How did you you got to defend like no, I just.
- 30:24Got lucky, I guess. They didn't hit me in the right
- 30:25spots. I was woozy, but I know it was
- 30:27like out cold. You know where they had to get
- 30:28me, You know what I'm saying? Nothing like that.
- 30:29And I've seen people get knocked out like that, but.
- 30:31You know, in your book you talk about how you were the leader of
- 30:36a group of guys in in prison. Right.
- 30:38Yeah. How did you get to that like
- 30:40leadership position? And then also, was there a lot
- 30:42of fights that you had to deal with in there?
- 30:44So look, in the situation when you're on Rikers Island, right?
- 30:47It's like, and no white people really.
- 30:49So when you get a dominant white guy in there, which I'm not
- 30:52really considered white, I'm more, you know, we're Italian,
- 30:54so the gang members respect us. So when I got in there is like
- 30:58Indian guys, harmless guys. And I grabbed them and told them
- 31:02I'll look after you. You know what I mean?
- 31:04And that's how. How do you do that?
- 31:06Like what do you mean you? You so I already made a name for
- 31:09myself now I'm facing life in prison.
- 31:11I already did some pretty bad things to people in that so that
- 31:15I had the reputation. I'm sitting up for a long time,
- 31:17I'm facing a over time and these kids are coming and getting
- 31:19picked on. And I told him, listen, you're
- 31:22going to sit at my table. You're going to do what I tell
- 31:24you. Don't talk to these guys.
- 31:26Don't touch the phone without permission.
- 31:27I'll tell you when you can get on.
- 31:29You're in a Wolves den right now, basically.
- 31:31Just sit there, shut up and listen to me and you'll survive,
- 31:34you know what I mean? And that's how it happened.
- 31:36And, you know, I pretty much steered them through.
- 31:38And this is anybody like Indian? Guys, that ain't gang members,
- 31:41because remember, it's ran by Bloods, Cribs, Latin Kings,
- 31:43gangs, and these kids can't even get on the phone.
- 31:45Yeah, they can't touch the phone.
- 31:47They can't sit in a chair. And, and everybody's respecting
- 31:50your word. Yeah.
- 31:51What's the name of the group? That you it wasn't a group.
- 31:53It was in the book you'd mentioned something though,
- 31:55right? You were the like, the leader of
- 31:56like. It was like the attack.
- 31:59So basically I was the only mob guy there.
- 32:00So like, I just took control over all.
- 32:02Like the Five 50s, You want to call them New 5?
- 32:05That's what they call the Five 50s.
- 32:06That's what the gangs call them. That means then they're
- 32:07independent. They're nobody.
- 32:08OK, So I grabbed them on and put them on me because they were
- 32:12generally getting abused. Yeah.
- 32:13They couldn't go to the store. They couldn't keep that
- 32:15commissary. I'm like, yo, leave these kids
- 32:17alone. They're hanging out with me.
- 32:19And I took them. So you're like a one man army?
- 32:21Yeah, everyone's like. Respecting me because I hate, I
- 32:25hated the Latin Kings. I hated them because they were
- 32:27trying to recruit Italian people.
- 32:29I says bro, you're an Italian, why are you trying to become a
- 32:32Latin king? You're looking for protection.
- 32:34I said just be yourself bro. Like you're, you're looking for
- 32:37protection. And Long story short, I started
- 32:40fighting with them. One kid, I cleaned them, beat
- 32:43them all over the place, knocked his teeth out, everything.
- 32:45So they respected me for that. Now the blood start taking my
- 32:48back 'cause I'm like yo I'm outnumbered I need your help
- 32:50but. Why the Bloods?
- 32:52The blacks just like me, I don't know was I guess it was my I was
- 32:54in the newspaper, you know, mafia guy.
- 32:56They all want to get down with you, work for you.
- 32:58So I the bloods like really respected me just.
- 33:01Just because of that. Yeah, they're like, yo, I want
- 33:03to work for you. Yeah, of course.
- 33:05When he seemed to pay me all that money, that's what happened
- 33:09with that. And then, mind you, I'm facing a
- 33:11lot of time, so I don't have a conscience at the time because
- 33:14I'm like, all right, you're not letting me get on the phone.
- 33:17I'm not touching this phone. What are you facing?
- 33:19Five years? I'm facing 1000 years.
- 33:21I'm going to get on that phone. I'm calling my mother.
- 33:24I'm going to break the phone, right.
- 33:26You know, I'm saying, and that's where it became when I go this
- 33:28kids, the real deal, you know, like he's a real, he's not a,
- 33:31you know, not a slouch. And then that's how I got my
- 33:33reputation. Ragazon.
- 33:34What about like, you know, people see movies like American
- 33:37History actually, you ever seen that movie?
- 33:38Yes. Were you ever worried, worried
- 33:41about like that those Skinhead Nazis in there at all or?
- 33:44When you go to the feds, they're in there.
- 33:46Yeah. I personally hate them.
- 33:47Yeah, I didn't get along with them in the state.
- 33:50They're not in there. And Rikazon, if they have a SWAT
- 33:52sticker on them, they can't take their shirt off.
- 33:54Yeah. Any racist stuff in Rikers
- 33:56Island, in New York, you can't survive.
- 33:58You have. You can't.
- 33:58They'll be. Were you ever worried about it
- 34:01though? Like just knowing that you go to
- 34:02federal prison. I was in the feds and I had many
- 34:05altercations with them. I didn't really, Yeah.
- 34:06I didn't get along with them like physical because they're,
- 34:09they're hillbillies. Yeah.
- 34:10And you know, they just don't like us.
- 34:12Yeah, You know, they're totally different.
- 34:14Could you break that down like? They got chewing their mouth.
- 34:16They wear like big boots. They look like idiots a lot.
- 34:18I mean, I'm saying we just don't fit it with them.
- 34:21This swag is in the basement. They have another daughters like
- 34:23they hate everyone hates New York and the feds because they
- 34:25say we're arrogant, we're cocky, like we start everything the
- 34:28styles. So they really don't like New
- 34:30York, but we're we're the most dangerous car.
- 34:33It goes by cars and the feds. What's the car state?
- 34:37OK, so everybody's with their own state.
- 34:38OK, OK, I got it. So even if you're on Blood,
- 34:40you're not with the Blood, You're you're on car.
- 34:42So all the Bloods and the gangs and the Italians and the Mafia
- 34:44will be in one car, right? About that.
- 34:46It's 400 of us, 300 of us. Yeah.
- 34:48Then you got the DC car, which is the most one of the most
- 34:50dangerous ones. What's the DC?
- 34:52Washington, DC OK, they're all killers in that car.
- 34:54They were all lunatics too. But then you have all the cars
- 34:56and most of the time they don't like New York car because we're
- 34:58arrogant, you know, just our whole swag is different.
- 35:02OK, So the white supremacists do not like us.
- 35:05OK. Could you talk about like,
- 35:07describe like one of your interactions where it went bad?
- 35:10I'm very disrespectful when I want to be because work out me,
- 35:14I'm AI love working out. So if you see me come to this
- 35:17place at 6:30 every day in the morning for the last two years,
- 35:21why are you trying to come in now at 6:30 and go in front of
- 35:23my TV when you know I work out there every day?
- 35:25Yeah, like why are you doing that?
- 35:26So obviously you're looking to get into it.
- 35:30I mean, that's how you do things like when people are bored and
- 35:32miserable in jail and they see that you're happy and you know
- 35:34you're doing your time, they try to make you miserable like them.
- 35:37OK so he tried doing that to me and end up hitting him with a
- 35:40medicine ball. With a what?
- 35:42A. Medicine ball, you know, the
- 35:43ones you work out with. Yeah.
- 35:44And I'm smacking with a medicine ball.
- 35:46Chased him around the whole thing.
- 35:47And then I went to the hall and then I came back out and she
- 35:50goes, you go with it all. I said, OK, I'll see you in 30
- 35:51days. Well worth it.
- 35:53And I went right into all it came out.
- 35:55You know what I mean? So that's they didn't like
- 35:57because I'm a jolly person. The Aryan Brothers, they're very
- 36:00miserable and they get a lot of time.
- 36:01They come out of Texas, they get an asshole full of time for the
- 36:05littlest thing. They're in there for about the
- 36:07crimes we're committing. They're in there for selling
- 36:09weed or some. They're getting 1020 years and
- 36:12they're invisible. We're getting like 1015 years
- 36:14for like, badge, you know what I mean?
- 36:16Making real money. And they got no money.
- 36:18No one's looking out for them. They're like bombs, you know, So
- 36:21they they're like jealous people.
- 36:22But they'll they will stab you in prison quick.
- 36:24Yeah, they will. You know what I mean?
- 36:26Yeah, it's interesting though, just being, I mean, because you
- 36:28guys are both white. Yeah.
- 36:30No, but I know it's different, culturally different, but.
- 36:33But the person on the street watching this doesn't know that
- 36:36though, right. Even though you guys are both
- 36:37white, you're Italian obviously, but even they say racist stick
- 36:42together in prison, right? But in actuality, racist do
- 36:45stick together. But the same time the Italians
- 36:48and the white supremacists, is that how you classify them are
- 36:52separate, right? Sheree Gavano gave that thing
- 36:54because he was hanging out with them.
- 36:56Yeah, but that's not really how it goes.
- 36:58They usually are not our friends, right?
- 37:01They usually don't like us. We don't get along with them.
- 37:03OK? So I don't know the way that
- 37:05came about like white culture. They don't Italians, we're not
- 37:08considered white in prison, right, right.
- 37:10We're not that before, you know what I mean, because we're
- 37:12considered other the gang members mostly respect us.
- 37:14They don't like them and they say a lot of racist.
- 37:17Those white supremacists like they'll say it blatantly.
- 37:19Yeah. Blatantly right to them, you
- 37:22know, they're really bad with they're not allowed to handshake
- 37:24with black people. They're not allowed to
- 37:25compensate with them. Then I ain't allowed to break.
- 37:27If they find out that you're a white supremacist and you, he's
- 37:31black and he gave you something to eat, they'll beat you to
- 37:34death. They'll put you right in the
- 37:36hospital. That's how bad they are, which
- 37:38is it's almost ridiculous, you know what I'm saying?
- 37:40But that's their beliefs, you know what I mean?
- 37:41So I didn't like them. I got along more with the blacks
- 37:46in prison. Spanish people had a problem
- 37:48with black kings sounded like what they were doing.
- 37:50They were trying to recruit like Italian and white people.
- 37:52I'm like, that's not fool you, bro.
- 37:54If you go in that gang, you're just doing it for protection.
- 37:56You're not, you're not really, you really ain't loyal to that.
- 37:58It's not your culture, you know what I mean?
- 38:00Did that translate out in the streets at all as far as like,
- 38:04you know, obviously there's guys in the joint or whatever.
- 38:06I don't know if you see them in passing on the streets.
- 38:08But when you were out actively, you know, with, right, the
- 38:11Bonanno crew, right, were there certain gangs that you guys were
- 38:14cool with or yes. I, I had AI had a lot of gang
- 38:17members work for me, but not like with my people, with me on
- 38:21the side. I would use them for things and
- 38:23I mean like gang members, but I would never bring them around
- 38:27because my people would not be OK with.
- 38:28That well, what were you doing, if you.
- 38:30Don't mind. Well, yeah, they were doing
- 38:31scores, robberies, jewelry stores, drug dealers, stuff like
- 38:35that. You know, I put on tracking
- 38:36devices on people where, you know, that's where they come in
- 38:39handy, you know what I mean? How did you become friends with
- 38:42Fetty Wap? Fetty Wap.
- 38:44So I was in jail with Fetty. Fetty is a awesome dude, bro.
- 38:48I'm glad you brought that out. How did you?
- 38:50I love him bro. How did you become friends with
- 38:52him? Like how did it originally?
- 38:53Start when you go to when I go to MDC Brooklyn, I'm going to go
- 38:56into a high profile unit. That's where we go into.
- 38:59It's going to be only a limited amount of people and it's going
- 39:01to be the most high profiles people in the country.
- 39:03By high profile I mean just. Your case, your who you are,
- 39:06everything. So I went in there.
- 39:07I was in there with the attorney general of Mexico.
- 39:10I was with the president of Honduras.
- 39:12OK, Literally. Yeah, he's president.
- 39:14I'm like, bro, what are you doing?
- 39:16He's selling kilos and tons of cocaine.
- 39:19Yeah. He's the president, The
- 39:20president, bro. And the attorney general of
- 39:22Mexico, which is El Chapo, tried to kill him 10 times, he told
- 39:24me. And he's in jail facing a
- 39:26million years. Yeah.
- 39:27So. And I was with him, and then all
- 39:28of a sudden I look over and I said, is that Fetty Wap?
- 39:32I see, like, his eye? I'm like, that's him.
- 39:34But he got a lot bigger now. Yeah.
- 39:36And we end up getting cool. And he wanted to train, you
- 39:40know, I was training people and work out I.
- 39:42Got Did you walk up to him when you saw him or?
- 39:45You see, I kept saying I'm like, because at the other day I
- 39:48listen to all the songs, right? So I'm like, bro, I'm like, you
- 39:50got the music. You just, you know, I mean,

- 40:00I was in there and I had called him the infinite Don on a show.
- 40:03So he was furious. So he knew I was in there.
- 40:05So it was all over the building. And then so me and Fetty are
- 40:08talking and sure enough, we got really cool and we, you know,
- 40:13discussing and I thought he was going to be like a gang member,
- 40:15like, you know, like an idiot. He's actually not he's actually
- 40:17really smart. He has like 11 kids.
- 40:20He takes care of all of them. He told me he got robbed by his
- 40:24record label. Like he signed the contract
- 40:27because they threw $1,000,000 in his face and he's like, yeah, I
- 40:29signed. He signed away everything he's

- 41:17knowing what he was funding, kinda and the Fed just put him
- 41:20into the conspiracy and gave him six years, which I don't think

- 43:48stop and I kept beating him and I got the cops got me.
- 43:51I went to the hole from. Did he hit you?
- 43:53Oh. He got me.
- 43:54He got you. He.
- 43:54Swung at me first. What like what happened you like
- 43:56phase you or did you? Just no, I didn't phase me.
- 43:58He was like a boy, he. Just went.
- 43:59Oh, I hit him with coffee because I seen that there was a
- 44:01coffee cup like then I just cracked him right with the
- 44:04coffee. Yeah, but I but I had a federal
- 44:06referral for that. I was sweating in the whole
- 44:08that's a referral. That's a new charge.
- 44:10That's an assault with a. Weapon bro.
- 44:11Oh, no kidding. So I'm sweating 3 weeks now.
- 44:13I said you're gonna give me a new charge for this dude picking
- 44:15on a harmless dude. I defend him because I hit him
- 44:18with hot coffee. Right.
- 44:19Did you get off of it? No, they, they kicked it back
- 44:21because I remember the all the cops like me and they came to
- 44:24see me in like Gene, that's a federal referral.
- 44:26I said, what's that mean? That's a 224 assault, he said.
- 44:29That's not, he said. That's not a fight ticket.
- 44:30Self-defense, though, right? That's what I tried saying.
- 44:32I said look at the camera. He swung at me first, but they
- 44:35said then you wouldn't stop. You kept attacking him so I
- 44:37wouldn't stop. I was going crazy and I'm going
- 44:39to the hall for 37 days for that man.
- 44:41And that Sam, Sam, how do you spell it?
- 44:43Sam, Baby. Hang on, say it.
- 44:45We were asking him questions because we were like, yo, you
- 44:47stole $10 billion, right? All right, So I said, So what
- 44:50kind of car were you driving? He said a Toyota Camry.
- 44:52I said, what kind of watch are you wearing?
- 44:53He said Apple Watch. I said, what the did you still
- 44:57like a gold yacht, right. Like, what do you, what do you
- 45:01do with the money? He's telling us he's Facetiming
- 45:03the Elon Musk, you know, the guy that owns Twitter, the other guy
- 45:07that's like his friends, you know, I'm like, he's wearing
- 45:10basketball shorts every day. Like he drove a 2020 Toyota
- 45:13Camry. What was he doing with the
- 45:15money? I told me this is what he told
- 45:18me. I broke it down to him real
- 45:19fast. I says this is your first time
- 45:21in the feds. I said sit down, I'm going to
- 45:22tell you what's going to happen to you.
- 45:24I says you're the new Bernie Madoff.
- 45:26They're going to give you 1000 years.
- 45:28You stole $10 million. That's the worst thing you could
- 45:30do to the government, I says. And on top of it, they give you
- 45:32the worst judge. You have 8 prosecutors and they
- 45:35won't give you an offer. They're forcing you to trial.
- 45:37When you blow trial, they're going to give you 100 years.
- 45:39You know what they gave him? They're giving him 110 years.
- 45:42They are. He never killed nobody.
- 45:43He never touched nobody, never hurt nobody.
- 45:46I think that's so unfair. They actually gave it to him.
- 45:48They sentenced. Him, his recommendation is 110
- 45:50years. Year old judge will always go
- 45:52with the recommendation. Usually 9 out of 10 times.
- 45:54You didn't cooperate. They're not going to help you.
- 45:56Why would they help you? They wouldn't even give him a
- 45:58cop out. He told me, oh, I'm going to 20
- 46:00years. He says, are you already in
- 46:01line? 20 years.
- 46:02He says you've got $10 billion from them.
- 46:04They're going to give you life. It's under his life.
- 46:07I says you're never going to see the street again.
- 46:08I hate to say that to you. There's no beating the feds.
- 46:10They have 99% conviction rate. You don't win.
- 46:13Why wouldn't you just take a plea or.
- 46:16They wouldn't give him the plea. Oh, they would.
- 46:17They wanted to make an example out of him.
- 46:19So Tom Brady got robbed for like 200 million out of that.
- 46:21Really something like that. He looked up, there's like 7080
- 46:24million. Some lot of a lot of money he
- 46:26lost. If he worked with them, like
- 46:27worked out a deal with them, he would still be no matter what
- 46:30like say. No, no, But he has nobody to
- 46:32cooperate on. Yeah, he's the head of the guy.
- 46:34He's the top. Yeah, he's the top.
- 46:37So what's going to happen in prison then?
- 46:38That's. What I said, I said the real
- 46:40it's not going to hit until your sentence like everyone says.
- 46:42Oh, cuz it's always up to a federal judge.
- 46:44I'll break it down. If you don't have a minimum
- 46:46mandatory a judge could give you, a federal judge could give
- 46:49you one day if he wants up to 100 years, it's up to the
- 46:52federal judge. So you always have that in your
- 46:54brain. Oh, maybe he'll give me 10.
- 46:55No, he's not going to do that. You stole 1,000,000 billions of
- 46:58dollars until the realization hits when he goes 100 years,
- 47:02then you go, Oh my God, I just got 100 years.
- 47:05I die in prison, now in a federal penitentiary.
- 47:08In a penitentiary. And what's the difference for
- 47:12people that don't know like they they describe like?
- 47:14So a federal penitentiary is like the worst case scenario,
- 47:18you know, like violence, like you're locked down most of the
- 47:22time because people are getting killed in there all the time.
- 47:24So it's gangs got. So pitcher, you got life, you
- 47:26got life. I got life.
- 47:27Triple, life, triple, life, triple, triple.
- 47:29He's all got knives, OK? He's all got nothing to do,
- 47:31right? Miserable.
- 47:33You have $10 billion, All right, You know what I'm saying?
- 47:38Yeah. Wow.
- 47:38OK, you're going to give me money or I'm going to kill you.
- 47:41Like, legitimately, you're sending.
- 47:42They'll literally have guys run down and put knives to him and
- 47:44say cash App, They have cell phones all over prison Cash App
- 47:47money right now to this thing all going to stab you.
- 47:49Really. Yes.
- 47:50It's going down to MDC Brooklyn right now and they're doing to
- 47:53the cartel guys like crazy. And that guy does not have like,
- 47:57he doesn't have it. Oh, he's.
- 47:57Harmless. No.
- 47:58So that's so it's like getting back to like earlier.
- 48:00How are you? Yeah, I don't like that stuff,
- 48:01you know, and they're trying to pick on the dude and I just
- 48:03didn't like that, man, You know, I just says I'm, I'm really big
- 48:05in that, like, I don't like. Bullies yet?
- 48:07Well, that's what we talked about earlier, how you're like,
- 48:09you know, were your guys how you grew up in that area.
- 48:11It wasn't like we're not going to just smack somebody for
- 48:13nothing It's there's a reason behind it.
- 48:15Yeah, sure. You see it.
- 48:15It's like this is really messed up.
- 48:17Like if the guy was a piece of shit that I'm gonna say, oh, we
- 48:20could do whatever what I'm doing.
- 48:21Like this guy is just. Nothing.
- 48:23Nothing. I'm not.
- 48:24You don't. You don't.
- 48:25Yeah, Harmless people. You just don't do it.
- 48:26That's not nature. I told you, my people don't go
- 48:28for it. We don't.
- 48:29We don't tolerate that. So say he sees his podcast,
- 48:32right? Yeah.
- 48:32What? What should you tell him?
- 48:34No. Sam Well, how?
- 48:35How? What?
- 48:36It's like when I told him when I met him.
- 48:37But like knowing that he's going to prison like.
- 48:40There's nothing. There's nothing you can explain
- 48:41to him. He knows what he he knows what
- 48:43he's going into. He's going into see, with that
- 48:45kind of time, his points are going to be so high.
- 48:47So he's going to have to start off in the penitentiary.
- 48:49If they put him in Hazleton, Hazleton is like they killed
- 48:51Whitey Bulger there. My friends killed my my friend
- 48:55Anthony Aralada, his guy Freddie Geese.
- 48:57They killed Whitey Bulger in in Hazleton.
- 48:59You know how long he lasted. He.
- 49:00Didn't even make it through the. Night.
- 49:02He didn't make it. One night he wheeled in and they
- 49:05wheeled him out in a meat cart. That's what.
- 49:06He went in and went out. That was it.
- 49:08That's how bad, isn't it? They were literally waiting for
- 49:10him to come there. Cut his tongue out, cut his eyes
- 49:12out, stomped his head in within 24 hours.
- 49:16Now, let me ask you this. Obviously, that was a planned
- 49:21hit. So like how?
- 49:23So let me just say, let me just change the question.
- 49:25So when there's fights in prison or the Fed joint, stuff like
- 49:28that, obviously there's a spot where you can catch somebody for
- 49:31a quicker than like just right in front of somebody.
- 49:33Yeah. So is that what they planned?
- 49:34Well, his thing with the penitentiaries, there's no fist
- 49:36fighting. It's all stabbing, see?
- 49:38Because these are the guys that you know are never coming home
- 49:40again, so there's no fist fighting.
- 49:41So whenever they're coming at you, it's with a weapon and
- 49:44they're trying to kill you, you know, and the cops, they don't
- 49:46care. As long as you ain't hurting.
- 49:47The cops kill each other, they don't care.
- 49:49So this Sam Beckman, if he ends up in like one of these crazy
- 49:53penitentiaries, which Pollock Hazelton is the worst, Big
- 49:57Sandy, these are like horrific places where, like, people are
- 50:00getting killed once a month. They're locking the prison down
- 50:03because people are getting, you know, literally killed.
- 50:05So imagine a guy like that coming into this apartment.
- 50:08How? Does he?
- 50:09Survive. That's what I'm saying.
- 50:10Even if they put him in a dropout now.
- 50:12My friend was just with the cop that killed George Floyd.
- 50:15George Floyd? Yeah, my friend Frankie Passway,
- 50:17he was a mob guy. He's in Arizona with him.
- 50:19They just stabbed on 22 times in there.
- 50:21They stabbed too. They cop?
- 50:23No, they just let him up in a dropout yard in a safe place.
- 50:26Supposed to be a safe place. It's not.
- 50:29He got stabbed 22 times last week.
- 50:32And you were in that environment as well, right?
- 50:34Like at one point, Absolutely. And I mean, are you just in
- 50:37Rambo mode the whole time? You know, like I said, you got a
- 50:40lot of carry yourself. You know, I mean like when I was
- 50:42in the state, the thing the hardest thing for me was sex
- 50:44offenders because I got ended up in a hub with these scumbags.
- 50:47Now I'm with my friends and we're all, there's a few time
- 50:51guys with me. Frankie Pascoe was with me and
- 50:53they're like, yo, you're not in Ragazzle no more.
- 50:54You're in a jail. There's bad sex offenders.
- 50:56He has to. What do you mean sex offenders?
- 50:57They're like, yeah, rapists. I says, no, they can't live
- 50:59Ragazzle and you get killed. They said, no, they live here.
- 51:02I says, come on, bro. They said, oh, yeah.
- 51:04Well, the charges were horrific. I didn't make it in that jail.
- 51:06Six months. I was rolling guys down the
- 51:08hill. We were frigging terrorized the
- 51:09people because we just couldn't handle it.
- 51:12You know what I'm saying? So.
- 51:12Just you see them on site rolled.
- 51:15Out of them you had charges where mutilation, child
- 51:18mutilation. Yeah, just the sickest we.
- 51:20Had one, a guy from Bensonhurst, his name was Angelo Grigio, he's
- 51:23Italian. And all the gangs and mess was
- 51:25go oh, look at your your paisan. He's a baby biter.
- 51:28I says, OK, watch the baby biter.
- 51:29In a couple of days she's gonna go rolling down a hill.
- 51:31I says don't worry, we got something for him.
- 51:33We didn't make it in that jail. Probably 6 months.
- 51:35We were terrorizing him. What do you mean by rolling down
- 51:37the hill? Well, there's a hill.
- 51:38We kicked him down a hill. Oh, literally.
- 51:40Literally kicked him down a hill.
- 51:42Yeah, we literally lauded him and kicked him down a hill.
- 51:44Yeah. So you just.
- 51:44Walk up to him. You're like you.
- 51:46Because we already had a, like we have our eyes set on a
- 51:49certain ones, like the real horrific charges.
- 51:51Yeah. And like, we just can't handle
- 51:52it. Like, I couldn't deal with it.
- 51:54So there's someone who would say, I'll get out and do it
- 51:55again. Like they were just like real
- 51:57scumbags, you know what I mean? So I was like, we're gonna give.
- 52:00They had a church come. There's a church in jail.
- 52:02They had the people come talk to me about.
- 52:04So I was terrorizing them, really.
- 52:06I would walk past them and slap them in the head.
- 52:08Put your walk with your head down.
- 52:09I just tell them. What?
- 52:10What did the church people come and say to you?
- 52:12They're paying for this sentences.
- 52:13No, they're not paying for this sentence.
- 52:15Oh, so they tried to convince you to?
- 52:16Leave them alone. No.
- 52:17Yeah. And I'm like, are you serious?
- 52:19I'm like, you protect these people.
- 52:20They're raping little kids. Yeah.
- 52:22I say, are you serious? This is what we're doing here.
- 52:24Yeah. I'm not going to church, I say,
- 52:25ever again. They're all high in the church.
- 52:27No kidding. Was anybody else after them or?
- 52:30Everybody. Everybody.
- 52:31Yeah, when you find out, like you got to be careful looking
- 52:33them up because they find that you look them up, you get a
- 52:35charge for that something bad happens to them.
- 52:37Like let's say you look them up and you put the word out and
- 52:40they get stabbed. You'll wear that for for looking
- 52:42them up. But we have ways around it, you
- 52:43know what I mean? So you could also plant like
- 52:46porno books on them because they have contracts where they're not
- 52:48allowed to have porno books. So the cops hate them too.
- 52:52See you. Like yo, I'm going to the
- 52:54bathroom, the cop, like go plant the book on them.
- 52:56I'll have to do a search. If you go right to the hole,
- 52:58quit right in the hole. If you can't beat them up, we'll
- 53:00get them like this. I'm saying you got to listen,
- 53:03you got to work. You know.
- 53:04Just get a kill. Then I just could.
- 53:05Then they put me in in green. They said you got to get out
- 53:08this jail. Like I was in getting too much.
- 53:10And then we end up cutting that guy, Saudi Yolando.
- 53:12He came there from my he came in and he was an Italian guy.
- 53:16He turned out to be a rat from my area and I got the word that
- 53:19he's in there and like take care of that first.
- 53:21I was like, yeah, we got you. Don't worry.
- 53:22I did that. Frankie took the weight for that
- 53:25and get a year in the hole. They kicked him out the spot and
- 53:27then I got kicked out with the green and green was crazy.
- 53:30Yeah, it was wild in it. Were you ever just completely
- 53:33outnumbered, like bad? And you're like like worried,
- 53:36all right, Because it sounds like you're just going around
- 53:37like they're with me, you guys, you know what I'm saying?
- 53:40Like you know what I mean? Like a.
- 53:41Few times. One in Groveland, I messed up
- 53:44when we cut that guy. That was the first cutting in
- 53:47seven years in the prison. I'll tell you what happened.
- 53:49We messed up the drugs coming in for the Bhatias.
- 53:51That's the Dominican gang. They want them ahead on a stick.
- 53:54So when they said they that I was in the C2 dorm and they says
- 53:58when the Italian kid comes out, tell him to come outside.
- 54:00I won't go outside. Who's they?
- 54:02The bath is the Dominican kid. After the kid got cut, we up
- 54:05everything, the drugs, they couldn't make their money no
- 54:07more. So they want me now.
- 54:10So like so my neighbor was a kid named Sandman from Far Rockaway.
- 54:14He was a head blood. I said listen man, I'm going to
- 54:17be honest you I'm dead. They go out there, they're going
- 54:19to fully me up. They're getting me out to jail.
- 54:22Can you help me out here I was like we talk all the time I know
- 54:24you're the big homie. You got like 100 bloods with you
- 54:27Get Me Out of this one, bro. Honestly, I was like, you know,
- 54:30I'm I said I'll fight one-on-one.
- 54:32I said I'm dead right now. They're.
- 54:35Going to. He's like, I got you, don't
- 54:36worry, because he liked me. Like I said, they like the
- 54:38Italian news. That's why I really respected
- 54:40him. He could have told me to go fuck
- 54:41myself and I got to walk out there because I wouldn't check
- 54:43in. I wouldn't check in, sign in to
- 54:46PCI wouldn't do it. My pride.
- 54:48I'm still a mob that goes back to the street.
- 54:49Yo, Jean signed in. That's it.
- 54:51You're looking at doc. I know.
- 54:52So I wouldn't do it. I'm like, I got to take a
- 54:53beating because I'm not signing. So I went to Sandman.
- 54:56I was like, yo, come on. And he got me out of it.
- 54:58He went outside, he told me. He said, yo, you do I need to
- 54:59just kid, you got deal me my 100 guys, No kid, he goes, he did
- 55:03what I did for his people. If you were told to do something
- 55:05for your people, you're going to do it, right?
- 55:06So what's the difference if he does it and he put it to them
- 55:09like that? But remember, we didn't have
- 55:10many people there, you know what I mean?
- 55:11So we were outnumbered and that's how I got out of it.
- 55:15Yeah. Was there anything else like
- 55:16that before I did like kind of? Politics.
- 55:18I actually gave the story on TikTok.
- 55:20We were at a place in Middle Village called La Cue.
- 55:24And we'll be for this kid named Duke.
- 55:25Duke is on FBI's most modern list.
- 55:27He's one of the most dangerous Albanians to come out of Queens.
- 55:30And he didn't like the Halo Beach kids.
- 55:32And we were over there and he pulled out a knife from all of
- 55:35us. And he's with all those boys,
- 55:36knew all about weapons. We got nothing on us.
- 55:39And he goes, I'll kill all you Halo Beach and he has the knife
- 55:42in my friend's face and they all got guns.
- 55:44I'm like, yo, we're dead right now because we didn't even know
- 55:47they were going to be there. I'm sweating.
- 55:49I'm like, yo, we got nothing on us.
- 55:50They're going to kill us right now.
- 55:51Long story short, they end up not what we do.
- 55:54Oh my God, let's go to the car, come back.
- 55:56Went back. We had shotguns and we're back.
- 55:58I said load up, we're going back.
- 56:00Just heard this out because now the same said we were.
- 56:02I was scared of death. And now I'm like, yo, we just
- 56:04got punk. Everyone's going to know about
- 56:05this. Go to the car.
- 56:06We went back to hell. Beach came back.
- 56:08Listen to me, we had all kinds of with us, you know what I
- 56:13mean, ran in there. They were gone because I'm like,
- 56:15we got to do something now because you know, we just got
- 56:17abused. He abused us and I say that
- 56:19openly like I don't one thing about me.
- 56:21I just told you I keep it 100. I don't make myself look like
- 56:24God because I wasn't, you know, this kid was dangerous.
- 56:27And I told them, I said, yo, this this kid's going to kill
- 56:29one of us right now were. You in the life at that point,
- 56:31Yeah, OK. Absolutely.
- 56:32So that's going back to the street.
- 56:34Yo, this got punked out. So I'm like, yo, we got to load
- 56:36up and go back to this place and do something.
- 56:38OK, so that so that's your full, full on in the life at that
- 56:41point. Yeah.
- 56:42And and wow, that's a crazy story.
- 56:44The fact that. He's on FBI's Most Wanted.
- 56:46This kid was notorious. He stayed by 30 something
- 56:48people. He's ABI Mafia.
- 56:49This kids notorious. No one.
- 56:50We end up becoming friends later on.
- 56:52If you look him up, he's in Albania.
- 56:54They they can't get him. Yeah, there's no extradition
