Episode 195: Ciro Perrone
In this episode of the show I started off with some mob news involving members and associates of the Bonanno Crime Family who have a dirty cop on their payroll in Long Island. We then discuss Genovese mobster Ciro Perrone. In the early 2000's a TV show called "Growing Up Gotti" debuted on the TV channel A&E. It was very popular but not necessarily with gangsters. Wiretapped conversations revealed insults being hurled at John Gotti's family calling them various things. One of the gangsters recorded discussing them was longtime Genovese mobster Ciro Perrone. Perrone was a very interesting gangster and lived a colorful life in the Mafia.Jeff Nadu is an American Mafia researcher, podcaster and content creator.
