how does Tony Grosso not make the page? He was a major factor in the pittsburgh crime scene? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.60.249.17 (talk) 08:17, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

Came to pittsburgh in 2006. And Died in 2007 And made $600,000 and 1 month. He had a kingpin name deryl he was dealing with. From the southside of pittsburgh. From a neighborhood called st.clair village. But it was known as "darkside". Where Deryl was known as Dusto. He worked for the family for a year. And Deciano had made more money. On the southside than any other person. But

Youngstown?
Is this family the same as the one operating in Youngstown, Ohio? Mario Machi of AmericanMafia.com indicates a connection to activities in Youngstown; particularly corruption (historically) in the Mahoning County Sheriff's Office. However, I'm not sure if Youngstown is their "territory", or if there are other families in Youngstown. -- JeffBillman (talk) 15:25, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

68.158.153.13 and Marcetti
The user 68.158.153.13 performed several edits replacing the name of Michael James Genovese with Da'ciano Marcetti. He made similar disruptive edits also on Henry Hill and File:Henryhillmugshot.jpg replacing the name Henry Hill with Aron Burch. Please paid attention at these sneak vandals. -- Basilicofresco  (msg) 13:04, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

The second time I removed the same information about Ricky Luciano by 24.131.223.59. What references do you have to prove this information is real? Just listing Post Gazette as a reference does not work, leave a url or the title of the story and the date of the story. --Vic49 (talk)  15:01, 28 August 2011 (UTC)

Removed no references
Removed the information with no references.

Other defendants listed had no citation linking to the family, just a slot machine bust. Google and archive records were cross referenced and no indication of any affiliation. 5 members were woman. There has never been a female member of an LCN family.

Please provide references before posting information.
 * Joseph Sica - #30 reference (date deceased) is a broken link and needs updated or stricken.
