To my boy cris we met when he got out of jail i ran with his crew me and cris had a fight once it was about even but he came to me like a man and said he gets why people respected me said anytime i needed him he whould for me i never forgot that i had alot of respect for him after yes he was crazy cris but he had a huge heart may you rest in peace my brother
Wow awesome video Jeff definitely enjoyed it, the parents are to blame period, it's sad how he grew up, he was destined for death, he was given no other choice in that kind of situation, RIP Chris
These guys are a shell of what it used to be Too many cameras Too many phones Too many wanna be cowboys Old school is turning in their grave MAKE MONEY NOT HEADLINES
I wonder if other crews in around Howard beach tried to recruit him. This guy if he slowed down abit would've definitely been made one day. Great work Jeff
It's a shame that he had such a feared reputation that his ego lead him to be so reckless that unfortunately it was no surprise how his story ended,it seemed like his time in the can would change his ways if he tried to make amends with his enemies, how ironic that a scared kid ended his bullying ways.
Sad how he got killed with his friend Red there! Locked up in Rikers in c95 he had mad weed! Fought with the Padres against the bloods. He died around Thanksgiving n just had a daughter. What a shame . Rip Chris!
Jeff, BRAVO. You got ambition, you got class, style, and content God Bless God's got a plan for you. Remember, $$ it's not ALL about the green. It's about contentment, and self respect, a quality we can't put a price on. Be who you are, true man. Keep doing RIGHT.
Knew a number of guys like Chris. Very tough, didn’t fear much but that was also their downfall. Sounds like Chris also didn’t have a good assessment of danger or had a sense of self preservation.
I like the look of this. One man army, when u said that first thing i thought of was Danny Greene going up against Cleveland ( if my memory serves me right.) If im wrong about Cleveland someone plz inform me.
this guy was more solid than Borello and half of those clowns. Ronnie G would have been better if he had him in his corner instead of gene the cheese eater
I was in Howard beach on a Saturday over the summer for a few hours besides a bunch of random high school age kids on the main strip it was quiet by 9pm and most delis and restaurants were closed if you weren’t looking for pizza. Had to get kfc lol
@@anthonyarcanumsanctumregnu9551 yeah couldn’t think of it when I was typing original comment. im not from that area just usually swing through a couple times a year when I’m picking up family from JFK to get pizza from New Park.
I knew of Chris, didnt know him well to where we could call each other friends, not at all. But we crossed paths a few times when we were around teenagers. Later on, i knew that he definitely wasn’t anyone to mess with it. People feared him. And believe it or not his death was brought upon because of that fear. Thats all ill say.
HB cats it's Flik Im locked out of my Anthony Arcanum account. Im gonna do a video filling in the Gaps in Jeff's, Lees videos on chris and Genes book and stories of Chris, Pudgie, Mike P, Myself etc going back to when Chris was 6 and I first took him under my wing as I was 16. Pudgie and I was best friends and Pudgie would kinda bully Chris and his older brother and I showed them mad love.
I don’t wanna sound like Dr. Phil but Chris Cognata sounded like he had a lot of anger issues while growing up. You kinda feel sorry for him, raising himself, no father or mother around to raise him, so his life was already set for tragedy!
Well obviously I only heard of the legends of the mob thats in the history now a days you have Italian guys with podcasts that can easily make the world think there made men the ones I truly believe that made history was Sammy the bull and Michael Franzese ive seen the news reports not only them that both have Podcasts Frank Cullotta also had one they all three testified and became rats but I dont live that life so Im glad there alive to tell the stories and god bless the dead.....
Has anyone ever told you that you look like an adult version of Bobby from King of the hill? 😂
hello
😂😂😂😂😂
Funny
Lol this is true
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thanks!
No problem!
I gotta say your hairstyle is more criminal than the criminals you review 😂👍.
That's one thing I love about these modern mob stories, these crimes did not happen in the 60s or 80s but literally 10-15 years ago. Crazy
I very much enjoyed this discussion. Thank you for your efforts.
My pleasure!
What’s going on with the bowl cut?
Was not a personal friend of Chris's.....but crossed paths...and Chris was the real deal..Really had no fear 💯..R.I.P. Chris

Good episode jeff!!!

Neighborhood guy, i can honestly say 100% facts
I went to middle school with Chris in 1999. That guy was always getting into fights. I always wondered what happened to him.
You called it right. From young he had no chance
That’s why we need more role models, who better than ex convicts
Great stuff. Jeff. I believe ur living close to where i grew up, hershey pa
Great stories and content Jeff always a pleasure when you put out a new video. Thanks
Awesome work mate
Thank you! Cheers!
Great content, enjoyed it. Greetings from the Netherlands.

thanks for watching
Great show

Good afternoon!
Hello there!
Chris was a good guy! I went to the funeral Rip Chris
Is there a Hugh McIntosh episode coming anytime soon? He was like the real Irishman
It's a shame that he had such a feared reputation that his ego lead him to be so reckless that unfortunately it was no surprise how his story ended,it seemed like his time in the can would change his ways if he tried to make amends with his enemies, how ironic that a scared kid ended his bullying ways.
Kessler flipped in 2014. One year before Borrello flipping.

Glad you enjoyed it
I was at La villa last weekend

By the way, i knew duke and his boy frankie way better. They had our back once or twice. This was in the early 2000s
Hey Jeff, were you at UFC 302?

thanks for watching
Another great episode Jeff keep doing your thing Brotha 👍🏻
Watch Out,This Guy is Tough,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Rest In Peace
Rippin and runnin , i have heard that in awhile
Knew a number of guys like Chris. Very tough, didn’t fear much but that was also their downfall. Sounds like Chris also didn’t have a good assessment of danger or had a sense of self preservation.
Jeff is killing it lately
thanks for watching
I like the look of this. One man army, when u said that first thing i thought of was Danny Greene going up against Cleveland ( if my memory serves me right.) If im wrong about Cleveland someone plz inform me.
Another banger, Jeff! You're a true professional! 🙌👏👊👍❤️🇺🇸
you look like Russell from up
The "Big Ragu." Nadu on rapid fire lately! 👊🏻
Couldn't agree more how are ya vinny bro
@@greyjedi6430 Doing well Sir. Yourself?
Vinny! I love this channel. He is on 🔥
thanks for watching
According to John Alite he’s “Jeff Nardu” 😂😂 god Alite is an idiot lol
Great video. Even better hairline!!!
Thanks! 😃
Personally, I find his life sad . Raised by idiots who knew it was a death sentence from the beginning. Finally found peace.
What do you mean by “raised by idiots who knew it was a death sentence from the beginning.” Who are you referring to
this guy was more solid than Borello and half of those clowns. Ronnie G would have been better if he had him in his corner instead of gene the cheese eater
I wonder if gene is still stealing from his mother
Shut up😂
Gene is a tool, acts like he was a big thing but just a common thief.
Don’t compare that Rat to a thief
La Villa Pizza My Spot!
I have heard its good
Jeff any Tommy karate Pitera that no one has heard yet

You’ve been firing in like Rambo; Nadu, Howard Beach is where my skipper lived, R.I.P Big Joe. 😎

Street legend. His poor mom … when r these guysss gonna learn. Better work in a pizzzzzariaaaa
You knew his mom?
Looks like 1080
Just another night at butterfingers.
Bruh Duke ain’t got nothing to do wit these ppl
❤
Jeff cornered the market on all things mafia. Let's face it, he's who I turn to for info
Glad to hear it. Thanks for the kind words
I know them all
I knew of Chris, didnt know him well to where we could call each other friends, not at all. But we crossed paths a few times when we were around teenagers. Later on, i knew that he definitely wasn’t anyone to mess with it. People feared him. And believe it or not his death was brought upon because of that fear. Thats all ill say.
since you’re around these guys i have a question do they actually have a recruiting problem? or are they just not making anybody/see anyone as worthy
Howard Beach is Hollywood compared to BX
ONCE AGAIN KILLING THEIR FRIEND. THIS ONE RATS ON HIM THIS ONE ROBS HIM. C MON. ITS PLAYED OUT KIDS
Surprised he wasn’t scooped up by a crime family. Chris would’ve fit in with the Colombo’s real well
HB cats it's Flik Im locked out of my Anthony Arcanum account.

People shouldn’t talk about others and especially their mothers and father on youtube! Thats fuked…
I don’t wanna sound like Dr. Phil but Chris Cognata sounded like he had a lot of anger issues while growing up. You kinda feel sorry for him, raising himself, no father or mother around to raise him, so his life was already set for tragedy!
