 Welcome to the original gangsters podcast. I'm Scott Bernstein quick hitter edition We're gonna go out to Philadelphia in New York and talk about some new appears to be a new protocol by the FBI and cutting deals with Mob informants this past week a shout-out to George Anastasia and Dave Schrett Weiser out in Philadelphia In their mob talk sit-down podcast they Broke the news that Anthony Perceano who is the most recent Philly mob soldier to turn government informant wired up on the whole Marlino crew in the 2010s recorded a making ceremony in 2015 It appears that he has not been sentenced yet the case dropped Three years ago. I think he flipped You know more than ten years ago and He he has yet to be sentenced living somewhere in hiding right now and it looks like this is again a pattern We saw recently in New York City Joe Masino's a longtime driver and Messenger Goldie Leichenheimer was sentenced last month 20 years after he cut his deal It just came out from that sentence the in shout-out to Jerry Capacia gangland news who pointed out that Joey the MOOC D'Amico Who was a longtime soldier and acting capo in the Bonanno crime family cut a deal in 2003 or 2004? He's yet to be sentenced. He's been out 20 years Waiting to be sentenced and so who knows when Anthony Perceano will eventually be sentenced Could be another year from now. I guess it could be another 10 or 15 years from now Not exactly sure You know how this benefits the federal government, I guess I'm It's crystallizing maybe in real time in my head that You can delay the sentencing in that in that sense delay the Punishment maybe tamp down the Anger and bitterness and resentment from the public or the group that that these people have turned against and by the time They're sentenced and it hits the paper that they're not doing any real time that you know The temperature has has lowered on the situation It used to be you know, these guys would cut the deals at Do whether it be two years five years ten years and then walk into witness protection, but they were being sentenced pretty quickly or relatively quickly after they Decided to flip and join team USA now it looks like kind of the new play is to you know, let it linger So, you know when we're talking about D'Amico, you know, you know he came from a mob family his uncle was Al Walker was running around with a lot of those zips seen that picture Chesapeake Bonaventure, you know the famous zip that turned on Carmine Galante and then became a cop or youngest cop in New York, I think he was 2526 he eventually was killed 84 but When you're talking about Philadelphia Perceano's a guy that you know got made twice he got made of the Lucchese family and then Transferred and was made in Philadelphia. He wired up Where is that wire? We're sitting here again. It's almost ten years since he reported that making ceremony and we haven't seen a transcript We haven't seen really any We've seen bits and pieces come out in indictments and in court cases, but we've yet to see the whole thing and How is this being weaponized behind the scene right now because I would bet my last dollar that that's gonna wind that Transcript Perceano himself on the stand talking about the transcript talking about him being wired up is gonna come out in future indictments future court cases, so Maybe that's playing a role in him not being sentenced yet But has not been sentenced people are kind of wondering what's going on in Philadelphia But again just to give it context if we look at what's happened in the Bananos in New York City with Goldie and Joey the mook This is the new way of doing things for the feds. You might be out for two decades before you're sentenced Something to keep an eye on OG pod Scott Bernstein
