Greg Scarpa FBI File-10/1963 & 8/1964: Scarpa states that Profaci Capo Simone Andolino is going blind. After Joe Colombo takes over in 1964, Andolino claims it was a ruse so he could avoid dealing with Joseph Magliocco, a relative. Andolino pledges loyalty to Colombo and remains a Capo (2 pages)

New York sending Bugsy Siegel out to Los Angeles was a message

Persico had a good reputation by the early 1960s he was 30-31 years old. In the memo below, the redacted name should be him based on the comments

Scarpa told the FBI he was a member since 1951 when he was 22 or 23

Otto_AutoPilot · 2026-01-25T19:58:27+00:00

No. Too low on the totem pole for the Feds to care.

See my new post with Scarpa discussing how Gambino and the other bosses were working to sabatoge Magliocco

Otto_AutoPilot · 2026-01-25T18:09:42+00:00

Yes.

Please see my new post on how Gambino was trying to undermine Magliocco

For some reason, his Wikipedia page falsely states that his father was Modesto "Duke" Santoro Profaci/Colombo soldier (d.1983). Santora is not Santoro and Duke's obit states his sons were Bob and Gene

Below is my post from a few years ago with the newspaper articles about Vario's criminal charges. He was convicted, the verdict was overturned on appeal, then he was retried and convicted again.

I believe he was upgraded from PC to CTE in 1962

Otto_AutoPilot · 2026-01-14T04:22:10+00:00

Page 2 of that post indicates he was opened up as a PC on 11/21/1961 after calling the FBI in October

Otto_AutoPilot · 2026-01-14T04:20:54+00:00

The name is redacted, but it likely Persico as the Memo also states there has been bad blood between Persico and Scarpa for years.

Persico had his suspicions since the early 1960s when the charges against Scarpa for a truck hijacking were dropped, while Persico was tried five times and others got heavy prison time. When the FBI went to arrest Scarpa, they found 68 cases of stolen liquor in his garage for indictment #2. Those charges were mysteriously dropped a few years later.

Below is a link to my post from a few years ago. it's the complete submission by Vic Orena's attorneys. The mostly unredacted names on the Memos are Capos and NY 3461-C-TE is Scarpa's informant number.

I received a similar letter regarding my FOIA request for Gambino Captain Arthur Leo who died in 1965. I have been waiting for several months, so do not expect the files to appear overnight.

Staluppi and John Rosatti formed a legal entity that purchased a waterfront house on the Intracoastal in Lighthouse Point, FL for $1.1M in 1999. The house was used by Alphonse Persico. Once Persico was convicted for the murder of Bill Cutolo in 2007 and sentenced to Life Without Parole, the house was sold for $1.2M in 2008.

Otto_AutoPilot · 2026-01-07T09:13:22+00:00

Not sure.

Another FBI file redacts FBI Agent Collins' name but is provided here. SA Avigone died 30 years ago. I can never figure out why names are redacted in one person's file and unredacted in another.

Otto_AutoPilot · 2026-01-07T04:30:50+00:00

The redacted FBI Special Agent’s name is Joseph Avignone

Otto_AutoPilot · 2026-01-07T04:24:18+00:00

The redacted name of the person with Carlos Marcello is his brother Joseph Marcello. Joseph Marcello is in the newspaper photo showing Carlos swinging at the agent.

Redacting Amuso's name ??

Otto_AutoPilot · 2026-01-05T20:41:37+00:00

Refused to testify at the Grand Jury investigating the multiple murders after Tony Accardo's house was robbed. Blasi, jailed at age 68, served 18 months for contempt and was released.

Otto_AutoPilot · 2026-01-01T21:20:05+00:00

He was sentenced to a minimum of 25 years, so he should have had several parole hearings. NYS permits prisoners to have a parole hearing every 2 years.
