I think the government is the real mafia. When you make it on the streets for over 100 years, and never rat on somebody else you deserve respect. I treasure loyalty a lot.
Sonny was innocent and he had nothing to do with the bank robbery case. So feds hired 4 guys to testify against Sonny and they wrongfully convicted him . They ruined his life and his family.
I had the pleasure of knowing " Mr. SONNY" from being in f.c.i.Elkton with him . These videos are the most I've heard him speak. Some of the funniest moments I've had was in a prison and simply watching Mr.Sonny. I had no clue who he was until I was released in 2012 and I wonder what happened to Mr. Sonny . I googled his name and was astonished and honored to know a legend .Mr.Sonny will always put a smile on my face regardless of how bad it may get.With my highest RESPECT R.i.p. MR.SONNY!
I don't understand how he can say " he's done enough time , he has kids to raise" . He was a career mobster. Go listen to all the mobster's families they interview, they all suffer as a result of the life.

You loved that guy like your own father and i think Sonny was very proud of you and loved like his own son. I really appreciate your loyalty you're stand up guy..But I've just one question (And i really wish you're respond me) With all respect do you have been in love with Gia in past?..I say that because it reflects on your eyes and the way you're talked about her..you care about her and been very protective and You take the oath to care about his father when she asked you..(sorry if my english isn't so well i'm french..) Thanks Greg and i wish you well in life.
Michael was the smart one. He changed his life and started following God. What profits a man to gain the whole world but lose his soul? Look at the mobsters of the past. Half of them are in prison or died horrible deaths and are probably burning in hell for all of the evil they did. Michael serves a higher authority now so good for him!
There is. A difference. Followes the lord. But still gets paid to appear on every mob docu or anytime he can talk about the past and glorify his role. He gets paid for his last name,but cant pay homage to the guy that gave that last name to him!!
Michael is Sonny’s step son. In Michael’s autobiography that he wrote called “blood covenant;” He clearly says his biological father was a soldier and his birth name was Michael Grillo. Michael’s mother later marries Sonny Franzese and they have kids together. Michael looks nothing like Sonny but his half siblings like John Franzese jr. look just like Sonny. That’s why Sonny calls John his favorite son bc it’s his oldest biological son. Michael is not Sonny’s biological son, he’s his step son. #facts
Mr. "SONNY" FRANZESE A REAL COSA NOSTRA BOSS HE TOOK THE OWT LIKE A REAL MAN AND HE FALLOW THE RULES UNTIL THE END MUCH RESPECT SR. I WISH I CAN MEET YOU SR.
Shame both his sons have betrayed him. If you look at the way Jr Gotti looks up to his father you would think John Sr. was a venerated saint. A movie should be made about Sonny's life and how this guy is doing what Michael should have done!
HE WAS THUMBS UP ON KILLING HIS SON, HE DIDNT HELP HIS SON AND HE WAS THE UNDERBOSS , HIS SON WAS MAKING 8 MILLION A WEEK, A WEEK AND THE BOSSES SAY HE WAS SKIMMING OFF THE TOP, HOW CAN YOU KILL ONE OF YOUR GUYS WHO MAKE YOUR FAMILY THAT TYPE OF MONEY.

Micheal Franzese is the the real Hero. He left that Evil Murderous Life and Changed. Married and Raising a Good family. Micheal contributes to society in a positive manner. Sonny wasted his Whole Life in a Dirty Squalid Prison cell. Hope Sonny takes his son's advice and Turns to God.

So greg , started watching your videos , who are you besides Gia’s friend did you get straightened out ? Were you in the life ? Or were you just a regular guy who knew Gia , and happened to go to jail for a half a gram of coke , who was not involved in the life?

I knew the daughter Gia I was Tina's friend She had a red Firebird I used to go to the house in Roslyn I went to the movies with Sonny and Tina and john Sonny used to like to go to Carvel . They also took me to Michael Jackson concert And I used to go to Michael's movie producing studio in Bellerose with tina.I don't know whatever happened with Tina.I'm sorry what happen with Gia.She used to go swimming in the backyard They had a nice built-in pool with the slide.Greg do you know whatever happened with Tina?
Hi greg you mean the daughter ?did you know my friend vinny who married her?sorry to hear that she was a sweet girl. I had some good times with the family
I met sonny back in the 80s when he first came out of jail And he had like an 80 fsomething Mercedes 450 SEL blue John Junior would have me drive him around in the car Take him to all these crazy places We have to talk sometime your storys are very interesting
greg vita yes greg i worked with vinny at ginos.good guy i dont know what happend to vinny thats how i met tina and her family.they took me to michael jackson concert. i also went with sonny and tina to local movie theartre in manhasset.really good people.crazy when i went with johnny one nite to 231s the club.😊
That's the life the old man wanted. Props to Michael for getting out of that life. And what's up with this guy riding the old man's nuts and trying to paint him out to be a saint?
@@rainbowsixlife7104 From what Michael Franzese states he and his Father John Franzese have worked things out .... to a certain point I would think . Tremendous friendship and loyalty from Greg Sam Vita to do what he has done for John Franzese and continues to do . My best wishes to them and respect . Thanks
Total lie.... Sonny and Michael are close until this day. This guy pretends o be Sonny and his family's best friend. He's a fraud. Sonny is not doing the talking. He's 101 years old. This is all about Greg making a hero out of himself.
How the mighty have fallen. When these people were making money hand over fist ... it never occurred to them to put something away for a rainy day or old age? I guess not bc most didn't live to be old.

That’s why Sonny calls John his favorite son bc it’s his oldest biological son. Michael is not Sonny’s biological son.
The bottom line is, people shouldn't interfere with people's family business. When Mike testified in 1989, it effected his father..They couldn't get to him, so they retaliated against Sonny and tried to strip him of all his money making operations. He had a crew still loyal to him in 1989. Mike and his father are gangsters who had a public life, so they put themselves out there to be spoken about, but i don't think people should pick sides. That lifestyle of the mob ruins families, and I have sympathy for them
Sonny just did 50 yrs. That's too much time away from wife, kids, etc. All for something that really doesn't exist anymore. All your associates are dead and gone. That thing of y'alls is over. Never will the mob have the heyday again.
Rico Conti sonny is back too being a soldier he was underboss when joe colombo was boss but since he was in jail so long he got demoted back too soldier he is no underboss no more and too be real there’s literally nothing left of the colombo family and carmine persico recently died

I like the video of his 101st bday you posted, loved it
Sonny was a man who lived the Omerta' lifestyle, which is of honor He tried to tell people about how corrupt the government is
I love how this dude is a passionate friend to Sonny ...
Thanks for your kind words
I wish Mr. Franzese well. I’m also sending good energy to anyone compassionate enough to visit and support him.
I would love to visit Sonny
I would have loved to visit this man before he died
Sonny the real man's man. Salute to Sonny! God bless you. May Sonny live the rest of his life happily ever after.
Sonny was a one of! plain and simple. Kept his mouth shut for all those years couldn’t imagine how tough it was for him doing that amount of time.
He said "it was easy i did it one day at a time"lol
I served time with Sonny. He’s a mans man. The best. The can’t write a book about the life without Sonny.
Rape lol
Sonny is a truly mademan
Sonny didn't flip no matter hard the FBI tried,that's why he's a mobb legend..
Greg you are a stand up guy to be with Sonny like you do he’s a true legend a mans man and it’s true they don’t make em like him anymore
Wish I could got to meet mr.Sonny...God Bless you for helping Mr Sonny would love to talk to you.
Sonny the real Original GANSTER!!! 😎
your a great guy Greg sticking up for Sonny👍👍👍
