Considering joey got away all his life with exhorting and killing people he should have been happy to know he made it farther than most mafia guys that die in the streets
Joey made his choice like we all do Thank you for watching
Thanks for the video. I don't know if I gave you idea but one of the best yet
You did it Mike was done at your request
Another great video red! I wish,wish you could make a documentary,or a movie. If I was a millionaire I would definitely invest in making a movie,or a documentary.
Thank you for watching
There's street justice that needs to come back. Especially in this day and age.
Maybe, thanks for watching
Cruel and unusual punishment for keeping a 90yr old man at Florence Supermax…
He should of been in Butner NC at that point.
No reason for anyone 75yrs+ to be in Florence. Outside of National terrorist or enemy’s of the State!!!💯
He was in Butner NC, he tried to get an inmate to get someone on the recorded phone to murder Judge Zagel. They thought it would be better to send him to Florence after that.
@@redwemette5942 hahah!! I never knew that..
well..a verbal attempt on a Fed Judge will get you put in ADX especially if you are Joey Lombardo from the Outfit pulling those antics
Cruel and unusual punishment
@@coolcat5798 Thanks for watching
You know I never bought into the Seifert's being unaware they were involved with the Outfit.
They spin it as innocent Victim's who later realized who Lombardo was and then tried to get away from him.
Not excusing the Outfit from killing him, but if your aware your in business with the Boys it is a known risk you can be killed. Particularly if your going to testify against them.
Your so right Jimmy, Danny and Emma knew Phil and Irwin and Joey a long time before they went into business, they knew what they were getting into. The children didn't know. Danny could have been alive today. Joey Lombardo saved Emma's life along with he son Joey. Thanks for watching
@@redwemette5942 how did he save them? He was the one who told them to stay down?
@@tron9137 Thanks for watching
@@sammydabull4001 Not off hand, thanks for watching
Thanks for the story.
Thank you for watching
When Joey was caught in the alley behind Calarco's home, where did he\they live? I know it was on the 2300 block of north 74th in Elmwood Park but which house? 2311?
Yes I believe it was
Hey Red you ever doing meet and greets, i know you did the one in Vegas with the release of your book was it Red ? Or was it a book signing? Or is that to risky you think to do them frequently, i guess it would have some effect on you, on anyone for that matter .Scary ? 🤔
I like the warm weather, I published my book in 2016 and was invited to go to Las Vegas to a privet book signing
Any estimate on what Lombardo and Spilotro were earning while they were running the circus circus and stardust in Las Vegas?
About $50K a month
@@redwemette5942 if Spilotro was making that kind of cash why was he involved with the "hole in the wall gang"?

Thanks William...
Very welcome
What do you think of frank carlotta? Another question... my uncle was an associate of the KC (civella) family... did you know any of those guys ???
I never knew anything about Cullotta, never met him and never wanted to. He was a low level thug, that know paints a picture of himself as a good guy that only wanted to steal and make money. Money was hid God.
I never met anyone from the KC crews. Thank you for watching
@@redwemette5942 Thanks for the reply..... love your channel .....
@@paulanthony5552 Thank you
Can you elaborate more on the fighting bums thing? he would do this for fun???
I never asked him why. My thoughts were at the time, he did this to people that he didn't care about to keep himself in shape for a fist fight or just to punch someone that he didn't care about.
@William Gates I met him in 1970 at American Bonding on S State Street as I wrote in my book
@William Gates He was a former Boxer, I met him in 1970. Read my book you might understand then
I have heard many guys in the Outfit didn’t like Milwaukee Phil… and didn’t like answering to him as StreetBoss, however Tony Accardo liked him a lot.
What is the reason the rank and file and even other Captain didn’t like him but the Big Boss did?
Was it just a common case of the “Staff” not liking “mid-management” do to the fact the CEO liked and approved of his management style?
Thank you for watching
Do you got any more stories about the jayne family to share
Many
I literally grew up down the street from him sooooooooo crazy
Also my brothers were friends with his grandsons 😬😬
@@eringrow8633 Thank you for watching
What street? Me, grand and oakley across from Mitchell school.
Did you know that Tony splilotro smacked Tony Bennett in the head with a phone book
Nope, he never mentioned to me LOL I liked Tony Bennett, I watched him play all night into the morning after sunup at a Pinao Bar in Chicago
😁
I've had this one on the "watch later" list forever. Milwaukee Phill had the coolest gangster name to me so he's always intrigued me. I didn't know he groomed Joey the Clown and if the internet is right Tony Spilotro too. Thats a helluva pair of gangsters he trained.
Thank you for watching
@@davidstaudohar6733 Thank you for your input
Crazy these jokers live forver

It's a tuff old battery just to wait till your point
Thank you for watching
Good Story Red!! God bless you
Thank you
Who owned the apartment building he was living when he was caught I think on 75th or 76th Court
I don't know, it was a friend of his. He moved several times on the run
@Bob thank you very much I grew up in that neighborhood I was just wondering
Take a way the violence Joey was a good man & was a joy having him in the neighbourhood. Nothing has been the same
I agree. Thanks for watching
Back when mobsters had monikers
Thanks buddy
Any info on James "Jimmy Legs" D'Antonio?
Thanks for watching
How long did you live on 63Rd Pl,
And what was the name of your business?
Not very long, I moved around a lot. I had a video porn shop on Wells Street in Oldtown
Do you have any bedtine storys about Jerry Farmer
Yes I could do hours and hours about him and "The Jayne Gang"
@@redwemette5942 would love to hear any if you ever have the chance to make a video [also I'm going to order your book on the 1st of the month]
@@redwemette5942 my father grew up at the oak brook sports club stables he used to make drinks for Jerry and his friends at card games during horse shows
@@tristanwalsh7500 I used to play Gin Rummy with Paul Butler, that's where I met Michael. That should make a good bedtime story about the one arm man.
@@tristanwalsh7500 Thank you for watching and your comments
How much money did they find in his apartment and how many guns?
None, thank you for watching
You were very fair to uncle joe
Just honest about him
@Paulo Eclectik Don't stand there then. If you see a car coming, get outta the street.
@Paulo Eclectik No, that wouldn't be your fault, but at the same time life isn't fair. A business man would have the choice of paying, ignoring, informing, moving, or taking a stand. All have consequences. If you open up a business in an area prone for earthquakes or hurricanes you'd have insurance or choose another area. If a businessman sets up shop (usually grey area businesses like strip clubs and porno joints) in a mafia-infested area and doesn't expect to be bothered, he's very ignorant.
Joe Lombardo was in Butner NC from Jan 2014 until he died. Trust me I know.
He was moved to the Super Max in Colorado, where he died. FACT!
