Anthony Scotto, Jr.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Anthony Scotto Jr. is the son of former waterfront boss and Gambino crime family captain Anthony Scotto. Scotto Jr. followed his father into the family business which consisted of exerting illegal control over the ILA and the waterfront rackets, and became a made soldier in the Gambino crew of captain Anthony "Sonny" Ciccone. The younger Scotto was one of the lucky members of Ciccone's crew who did not get indicted by the federal government in 2002. With Ciccone in prison, and one of Ciccone's top soldiers Jerome Brancato being over 70 years old, some investigators suspect that Anthony Scotto Jr. has taken the crew over.
