Tom chats with Dom Cicale.

In this exclusive interview, former Mafia capo Michael Franzese shares his insights into the history of the New Jersey and Philadelphia mafia. Franzese, who was once one of the most powerful men in the mob, gives a firsthand account of the rise and fall of these two infamous criminal organizations. He talks about the major figures who shaped the mafia in these two cities, the violent wars that were fought between rival gangs, and the corruption that infiltrated law enforcement and politics. Franzese also discusses the current state of the mafia in New Jersey and Philadelphia. He believes that the mob is still a force to be reckoned with, but that it is no longer the powerful organization it once was. He attributes this decline to a number of factors, including increased law enforcement pressure, the rise of new criminal groups, and the changing demographics of these two cities. This is a fascinating and revealing interview that provides a unique glimpse into the world of the mafia. Franzese is a charismatic and articulate speaker, and he tells his story with wit and humor. This video is a must-watch for anyone interested in organized crime or the history of New Jersey and Philadelphia.

Vincent Gigante was born on March 29, 1928 in Manhattan, New York City, New York, USA. He was previously married to Olympia Grippa. He died on December 19, 2005 in Springfield, Missouri, USA. The current "family" was founded by Charles "Lucky" Luciano and was known as the Luciano crime family from 1931 to 1957, when it was renamed after boss Vito Genovese. Originally in control of the waterfront on the West Side of Manhattan as well as the docks and the Fulton Fish Market on the East River waterfront, the family was run for years by "The Oddfather", Vincent "The Chin" Gigante, who feigned insanity by shuffling unshaven through New York's Greenwich Village wearing a tattered bath robe and muttering to himself incoherently to avoid prosecution. The Genovese family is the oldest and the largest of the "Five Families". Finding new ways to make money in the 21st century, the family took advantage of lax due diligence by banks during the housing bubble with a wave of mortgage frauds. Prosecutors say loan shark victims obtained home equity loans to pay off debts to their mob bankers. The family found ways to use new technology to improve on illegal gambling, with customers placing bets through offshore sites via the Internet.
