Expanding on my earlier post… Who is currently in control of the commission? Barney Bellomo is the clear powerhouse in the US as far as organized crime, however he keeps an extremely low profile and relays all orders through his #2 in command Michael Ragusa. Michael Ragusa, a longtime confidant of boss Liborio (Barney) Bellomo, who has built an extremely low profile over the years (we found no photos of him) -- is the Genovese family's new street boss, Straightened Out has learned. Hailing from Pleasantville, Ragusa was promoted recently (though the formal appointment may have been largely ceremonial). Ragusa was already a soldier when he was nabbed along with several powerful members of the Genovese family in the big 2002 bust involving the Mafia's infiltration of the International Longshoreman's Association. Bellomo is official boss of the crime family founded circa 1931 by Charles (Lucky) Luciano himself. As one law enforcement source said of Bellomo: He's "the reason why people from Brooklyn and the Bronx have been showing up in lower Manhattan in the last few years." As per sources, Ragusa's elevation was prompted by and followed the death of venerable, longtime Lower East Side wiseguy Peter (Petey Red) DiChiara on March 2, 2018, from complications of diabetes. DiChiara had been a powerful Knickerbocker Village capo who reportedly spent his last years serving as street boss and consigliere for Bellomo. #michaelragusa #barneybellomo #genovesefamily #genovesecrimefamily #mafia #mafiacommission #thecommission #commission #organizedcrime #fbi #oc #gangster #2022 #newyork #ny #nypd #mafiahistory #mafianews #cosanostra #lacosanostra #italy #italian #guido (at Arrowhead Ranch, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ccb_JByL0Nf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Pictured here is Anthony “bowat” Baratta, a Capo and one time acting underboss of the Lucchese Crime Family. In 1991, Baratta serving as acting underboss viewed a Genovese family list of proposed new members, he commented to D'Arco, after seeing the name Ralph Desimone "He is a rat.". A sitdown was arranged between the two family's. The Genovese family acting boss Liborio Bellomo, acting underboss Michael Generoso and consigliere James Ida attended the meeting to discuss "Ralph Desimone" with Lucchese family acting boss Alphonse D'Arco and Baratta as acting underboss. The Genovese leaders asked Baratta about Desimone he said "Desimone had been a government witness", the Genovese leaders leave saying "will take care of it". On June 13, 1991 Desimone's dead body was found in a truck of a car at LaGuardia Airport. This is why the commission asked for names of proposed members be submitted to all families before he could be inducted. #newyork #newyorkmafia #italianmafia #cosanostra #lacosanostra #lucchese #lucchesefamily #lucchesecrimefamily #fivefamilies #5families #mafia #mafiahistory #made #anthonybaratta #bowatbaratta #genovese #genovesefamily #genovesecrimefamily #barneybellomo #desimone #underboss #consigliere #straightenedout #themob #themafia #organizedcrime #gangsters #omerta #thisthingofours #thelife (at Arrowhead Ranch, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZYs6xZrhRM/?utm_medium=tumblr

The most powerful gangster in the country… and you’ve probably never even heard of him. (Which is no accident) Hand picked by the Chin himself to take over the Genovese family. Liborio Salvatore Bellomo aka “Barney” is the current boss of the Genovese family and is hands down the most powerful gangster left in the US. In 1990, after Vincent Gigante's indictment in the Windows Case, Bellomo was appointed acting boss of the family. Since around 2016, Bellomo was recognised, most likely, to be official boss of the family. He is very low key and old school, there is very little info out there about him and even less photos (aside from a humorous time he was caught on a Google maps picture). If anyone has info or pictures of him, please share! I would love to know more. #liboriobellomo #barneybellomo #genovese #genovesefamily #genovesecrimefamily #chingigante #thechin #vincentgigante #godfatherofharlem #javitzcenter #westside #grenwhichvillage #thepope (at Scottsdale, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXT-8OTPhef/?utm_medium=tumblr
