Just saw an interview with his youngest daughter on Soft White Underbelly. The schizophrenic was a masterful act, whenever he felt that the FBI got too close to him he got himself comitted for 3 weeks into the psychatric hospital. so he worked on his being "not fit for trial".
Well what exactly is a bad guy? I think way too many people try and take their opinion of something and try to change societies morals based on that opinion. I mean let's say a guy takes a bat and smashes another guy in his head 5 times in a row. You label him a bad guy. Well what if the guys was a serial rapist and killer who kept getting away with it. Let's say you kill me. You're a bad guy right? Well what if we had agreed beforehand to duel to the death? Truthfully I think the only way that one can clearly label something or someone as bad is if they or it is doing harm to something that is pure and innocent.
@@ht2007 Soft White Underbelly had an interview with his youngest daughter. He got 12 years in prison (only - she did not mention what for). But he did not maintain his act in prison, she mentioned 9/11 and another occasion where he was "clear" on the phone. Then authorities pressured him, either he would give them more or they would go after his family for obstruction of justice. - She said this settled it. He was old enough that it was unclear if he would leave after 12 years anyway and he protected his family.
Here's a fun fact. Every crazy psychopathic mobster to a man respected chin. Even the disrespectful Mafia members respected chin. That's the kind of weight he carried
Its like this. Gotti talked crazy about everyone. He called vic amuso, gaspipe and the luchesses the "clown show" or something like that lol and another family "Cambodians" bahahahahahaha! He had names for the bosses and families but he never ran his mouth about chin.
Saw him in person myself as a kid going to private school in The South Bronx. When we attended church at St. Athanasius we would see him wh n he would visit his brother. He was a big big deal!

No you don't! Checking yourself into the psych ward gave you special privileges like phones not registered in your name, "safe haven" from being wiretapped, an environment surrounded by mental patients helping you recognize "who was out of their element like cops and federal agents, etc....)
He had cold blooded killers afraid to say his name. The fact they had to point to their chin to refer to the man in conversation is pretty telling how much respect/ fear he had. Crazy his run stretches from shooting at Frank Costello to being testified against by Sammy the Bull.
I was hoping this would've been a newer documentary about The Chin, but I knew deep down that it was the same FBI episode that a 1000 other channel's have shown.
When you think about it, he had the perfect cover. All the blows to his head from his previous boxing career made it a possibility that he could have mental issues. Also, his brother, the Priest who apparently protected the lie. Italian Catholics see their priests as always trustworthy.
My thing is this, although he boxed for many years and never had an issue with being in a ring, it amazes me that at the end he used it for a cover. The FBI should have looked better and harder at this issue. His brother, the priest, was a front for SEBCO, a construction company helping many homeless people getting housing with the shelter of the church.
@@robertmassatelli2638 I agree to an extent. Look at pro football players who seem normal until they age and then the head trauma sometimes becomes problematic. As far as Chins brother, I'm not passing judgement on him, in fact I praise his work with the homeless. However, you can't deny he was an enabler for Chin. The fact he was a priest made the situation more believable. Maybe he realized without LCN he would lose alot of $$ needed for the homeless?
@@renep2220 no, I not saying anything bad about the homeless, simply saying that SEBCO was a "shelter or shell" company covering it. As far as boxing, no! It's not like football because Chin never fought for a long time, short while. During the short boxing career it was never said that he encountered much of a beating.
If you're so afraid of going to prison, ¿Why be a criminal? That's what I've never understood about the Chin. Every other wiseguy knew that at some point, they would go to prison, and were at peace with that. Except Chin.
He wasn’t afraid to go to prison. He just was shrewd. No one says Carlo Gambino was afraid to go to prison because he was smart and did everything possible to avoid going.

Apparently he was relieved he didn’t have to keep the act up when sent to prison I mean 30 years pretending to be insane and have dementia nah sod that,can’t be worth it for any amount of money it probably didn’t do his health good but funny he had the feds on the runaround
Or So Comical that he was Nuts ----- There are people like that so funny they are nuts ---- I picked my nose deeply in front of a Judge once for a fine, ----- Judge asked if I'm picking a Winner, "Yes your Honor" -- "Good because you just won" "Thank you your honor" .
Mental illness exists but the nature of it makes it difficult to diagnose. Some practitioners absolutely knew he was faking but he was very good at it.
It's extremely difficult for a doctor to diagnose if you're lying in just a handful of meetings. On the other hand, people with real mental problems can appear perfectly normal 95% of the time and only when that specific trigger or episode start, does the lunacy appear.
It’s true, he did reveal both duplicity and fraud within the Psych-Industry. It was his favorite pastime and his crusade helped him fill the endless hours of incarceration. He was involved in many lawsuits which sought monetary compensation for the duplicity and he decided that he would prosecute the fraud criminally and he managed to send much of the fraud behind bars so that he could murder that too. I am pointing to the area below my lower lip was one bad dude!
its crazy that only 1 family from the beginning remained named the same, the Bonnano Family, Profaci became Columbo, Mongano to Gambino, I believe gagliano to Luchesse im surey spellings are way off an ofcourse Luciano to Genovese
Salvatore Maranzano started what would become the Bannanos. Lucky had maranzano and Joe Masseria killed because of the bad for business war they had going on
Explain to me why what is happening in Washington DC is not being investigated as racketeering and criminal activity. It seems to fall well under the RICO act. Perhaps the act was put together to remove those who were in business as competitors to poly - tic-cians.
All he had to do is to work with his hands or brain, and to live honest life. Why sell soul to the devil? For what? For a few pebbles with shiny metal on your fingers, for acfew pitiful years on earth, and then go to eternal hell?.... there is no in between. You will be either with God or with devil after you die.
I spent a few years meeting this old man for coffee he seemed sweet and innocuous to me as we would simply talk about family what I was doing, general news he was always very sweet to me!!
Fine documentary. When he checked into the psych ward all those times were the psychiatrists on the take or was he really that slick so as to fool them?
It's hard to fool a psychologist, in a therapy session, when it comes to specific mental illness disorders, but even a therapy session done in conjunction with a CT or MRI scan can't conclusively determine that a traumatic brain injury (TBI) hasn't been sustained, and a TBI could potentially cause a wide spectrum of unusual types of behavior. If it could be shown that he engaged in activity that would have put him at risk for suffering a TBI, such as a career in boxing, I believe it would be very difficult to conclusively determine whether it was an act or not.
Don't you just like the colours of the table coverings? Obviously the mobsters had no problems with them ! After all it would be a welcome change from the colour red .
The fact he strolled up and down the streets of New York for years without being mugged or worse, makes me think EVERYBODY 🤔 knew who and what the game was. One of those strolling photos, he is by himself while wearing what looks like a big diamond pinkie Ring! Some young wanna be gangsters would have rolled him if he wasn't Gigante.
I mean- Greenwich Village is probably one of, if not the safest neighborhoods in NYC lol that’s where he grew up and operated out of. It’s not like he was wondering aimlessly by himself thru the West Bronx. Not to mention he had that entire neighborhood on lock. He didn’t need bodyguards half the time because there were social clubs everywhere and he was always being watched, whether it be from other Genovese made guys and associates, the FBI or just ppl he knew and were friendly with in the area.
You gotta have a death wish to try anything on the guy who essentially oversaw all 5 families in NYC. The Genovese were the most powerful family at that time and Gigante was the most powerful boss.
He was also court ordered to stay within a 4 block radius of his mothers house where he stayed in Greenwhich village- outside of going to the doctor and court
America since 1913 when our countrys currency was centralized by the bank mafia. This country has been the land where corruption and greed can thrive, succeed at the same time breed. Our whole country is built around criminal longevity
Chin was a crook but one can’t blame anyone for having a degree of admiration for his crafty way’s. Not saying he’s a hero. Just the slickest mob boss in history.
Many people don’t even know where LFP is. Is it safe? I can tell you it’s the best place to hunt! If you have the courage to enter the premise… you might find the best game in the entire county.
I can see 5 maybe 10 years maybe 15 but he did this since 1950s until 1990s that over 40 years that's like 2 pensions or 2 retirement 🤔 you had to be a little off
If only the 3rd gen of LCN took a lesson or two from guys like Vincent “The Chin” Gigante, maybe, just maybe they would have fared better as an organization when the 21st century began to approach.
That is Hilarious!!!! I would've hunted for lookalikes to dress the same and clean windshields on the Bowery, now that would've REALLY DROVE THEM NUTS, LOL
Nothing embarrassing about it at all actually. The man was a legitimate mastermind and anyone laughing and failing to see that might want to have their brain scanned next.

Chin was a crook but one can’t blame anyone for having a degree of admiration for his crafty way’s.
Not saying he’s a hero.
Just the slickest mob boss in history.
Vinnie the Chin fooled them with his crazy act😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Many people don’t even know where LFP is. Is it safe? I can tell you it’s the best place to hunt! If you have the courage to enter the premise… you might find the best game in the entire county.
What network did this air on? A&E??
Yes in late 90’s not sure
Chin was crazy.....crazy like a fox
Vincent Gigante died in 2005 at prison.
JUAN TIME IN BAND CAMP 🎺
The real Keyser Söze❗❗❗😂
"the FBI is devoted to crack..."
This page must be run by the MOB cause the amount of ads I had to endure felt like a racket.
Why that music is bangin louder than in the clubs fuck sake
It's said that the chin was the No1 boss of new York's 5 families and feared most
Fack the FBI. Good for the chin. Too bad he eventually got caught
Chin was the one who ordered his Capo to lead the guys who killed Bruno to believe they had the commissions permission to kill Bruno
...a stroke of genius....no doubt....
I can see 5 maybe 10 years maybe 15 but he did this since 1950s until 1990s that over 40 years that's like 2 pensions or 2 retirement 🤔 you had to be a little off
If only the 3rd gen of LCN took a lesson or two from guys like Vincent “The Chin” Gigante, maybe, just maybe they would have fared better as an organization when the 21st century began to approach.
Feds in suits, trailing a homeless looking guy...LMAO
That is Hilarious!!!! I would've hunted for lookalikes to dress the same and clean windshields on the Bowery, now that would've REALLY DROVE THEM NUTS, LOL
Chin was crazy as a fox .
the Chin had his ACT , together !
Wow. That must of been a great rouse.
Had him in my housing unit in the BOP
It got used in 1980 for the first time
Used physically? Or used to kill someone?
Can you get those pants higher
The Vatican should be brought up on RICO CRIMES along with the CIA and fbi
Was crapping his pants part of the ruse?
Embarrassing when you think about it, reputedly the most powerfull mafia boss in the US at the time, ended up turning himself into a laughing stock.
Nothing embarrassing about it at all actually. The man was a legitimate mastermind and anyone laughing and failing to see that might want to have their brain scanned next.
Man was a rare, crazy genius 100%. Evil mastermind!! 😂
I love how the feds think they’re bigshots but organised crime is doing better than ever, they can keep telling them selves what ever you
They need to make a movie about him. Call it "The Crazy Chin"
I wish the current politicians would have to go to these lengths to exist in society it’s not like there not as bad or worse than these men 💯
