Loading ...Anthony "Tony D." Palumbo, a reputed acting captain in the Genovese crime family, previously charged with racketeering and extortion, is accused of conspiring to have Angelo Sangiuolo, hit for robbing Palumbo's gambling joints in the Bronx.
Sangiuolo was lured to his death by his first cousin Angelo Prisco, a Genovese captain. Prisco was sentenced to life last year after triggerman John "Johnny Balls" Leto turned government witness and testified against him. Paul "Doc" Gaccione, the remaining suspected member of the hit team was arrested in April and charged with murder.
The new federal indictment against Palumbo, who the feds claim was named head of the Genovese family's New Jersey operations in 2006, alleges that he met with Leto and Gaccione after the hit "to thank them for murdering Angelo Sangiuolo."
Defense lawyer Steven Frankel called the new charges more of the "same nonsense."
