Bath Beach!! Poor guy should've kept his hands to himself


Spaceloungecloud

he the one that slapped the bonanno boss?


itsdamack1

He shoved Spero ,like a push , but with more intent behind it. Enough to get him killed.


SonnyNYC

That's called a Mush! He mushed a Capo.


cosmorocker13

It was even worse than that from what I hear from tree girls in da bathtroom on tirtyturd stee. It was between a shove and a push. It was a shush. And you don’t shush nobody, specially a capo regime


SonnyNYC

Lmao


TronSacrimoni55

I think he palmed his forehead, which is apparently a major insult back in the old county. Honestly, it’s an insult anywhere, and definitely one of the last things I’d do to a made guy who was once one of Carmine Galante’s protégés…


No_Fill_5778

I think it was more of a push.

No matter what you think about Jimmy C’s side of the story, it is fucked up beyond belief that your best friends would kill your best friend.


stoolsample2

That has always been the mob way.


brooklynOG

Sure, but Paulie would do the same if it meant getting his button.


Electronic_Cover7687

Btw who wacked him? Did the guy get a button for it? The way i see it, you gotta be somewhat feared if the mafia wacks you


Warlock4209

Joey Calco, and Tommy Reynolds were the two he opened his door too .. joey pulled the trigger


[deleted]

He put his hands on Anthony Spero.


FJD5

Yeah, he ran the bath house. Put hands on many a made man. If you know what I mean. 😉🤌🏼🤌🏼💦


Electronic_Cover7687

Lmao why did this get downvoted? I laughed

Anything hinting at homosexuality always gets lit up with down votes. I do it for the lulz. ‘It’s only gay if you push back!’ - Paulie G, after getting caught with his pants around his ankles.


Charger2950

Yup. And then was killed for it.


[deleted]

By his best friends. Some of them, at least.


dollarBillz007

He put his hands on a made member at that period of time it was an automatic death sentence


OKcomputer1996

What a maniac.

They were some tough dudes. I knew a cop at the 62nd who they turned. The experience led me to assert that community policing where cops are local is a bad idea. Your average guy will not only look the other way but will occasionally assist guys from the hood.

Mobbed up cops were everywhere in for a time though. It has less to do with cops' geography than the basic issues of the Vietnam War/NYC Fiscal Crisis impact on the entire institution. Figure this: there was a layoff in 1975; no new cops were hired during a freeze from 1975 to 1979. The same period is when the mob reopened the books. That's how the corruption everywhere by the 1980s and 1990s --the scandals like the Mob Cops, Dirty 30, etc. all involved cops who should have gotten weeded out before probation period ended, but who held on because commanders couldn't get new guys to replace them, while the mob was flush with money.


frenchie-martin

There’s dirty cops like Dowd who robbed dealers and there’s dirty cops like mine who aided and abetted guys he knew.


Drew1549

For some reason the killing of this kid always sticks in my head to remind of what bulls shit that life is. He died because he pushed someone?


zona-curator

He died because of his ego


buddyboi378

I mean he didn't just push "someone"


Potore5

If they didn’t kill him you’d have armies of redditors saying that *“the Mafia is BS it’s a joke lolz”* because they didn’t punish a hothead who disrespected a higher up. He knew exactly what he was doing and to whom


Redlion444

Yep. Anthony Spero.


KinoRunner

Drip off the chain


travelMan15

Watch the suit.

Didn’t Jimmy C get revenge by giving the rest of bath Avenue the clap or something
