All the characters on my channel have extraordinary lives filled with interesting events, albeit mostly immoral and illegal. But today's character can compete for the title of the most interesting story I told you about here.
For decades, Gregory Scarpa worked as a secret informant for the FBI, and the agents who supervised him eventually became his associates and helped him avoid prison and conduct illegal business.
His informant status also helped Scarpa move within the Colombo Mafia family, of which he was a member. He was very selective in leaking information and distorting facts to eliminate those who hindered him and to increase his power systematically. Some even believe that Scarpa was the gray cardinal of the family, pulling the strings and controlling from behind the scenes.
He started wars, killed and ordered the deaths of people by the dozens, turned his son into a killer, officially allowed his wife to have a lover, and then also turned him into a killer. And, even when nearing the end of his life when he turned into a walking skeleton due to advancing AIDS, he still rode around the city and shot his enemies.
How's that for a synopsis? Would you like a more detailed story? Then meet Gregory Scarpa, on the other side of the law.
This was good ASF but damn they only gave this man $350 grand..that ain't shit for killing me
There are so many mob channels that appear to be similar that I almost skipped this one.
That would have been a mistake. This guy digs pretty deep and is not one of the many channels parroting the same information.
Worth a watch - even for you serious mob students.
And y'all be out here hollering about you "standing on business"...shidddd...this man did that
This was really good wondering if you could do something like this on Carmine Persico??
Enjoyed this upload. Factual information interesting and no baloney misinformation or glaring errors like many other CZcams channels in the mob genre. I'm now a subscriber to this channel.
What is the movie played in background?
Great video! 👍
I wonder if the blacklist took inspiration from this guy
Interesting...Scarpa might have been in on the Colombo hit, that does make some sense..
1st for once
Wow
Feeling a little bit seasick from the constantly moving images 😢
The biggest rat ever
Wait. He had AIDS?!
YEP
He got a blood transfusion. One of his men donated blood, and it was tainted with the H.I.V virus. Back in those days, I think they weren't screening blood for the virus. Crazy!
Even when he was dying of AIDS and on bond, he was still getting in his car to murder guys on the street during the Colombo war at the time. The man was a menace on top of being a rat.
