He resided in Colorado until 18 years of age, when he thought it time to come back to his home. He returned to Los Angeles in the summer of 1997.

In 2001 the law caught up to him and he fled to New York City. He spent his summer there cruising a 40 foot yacht on the St. Lawrence River. After three months of this continued lavish lifestyle, he unexpectedly caught a flight to Argentina. He flew out of JFK at 1:30am on September 11th, 2001 (interesting fact). It was here that he found a passion for the slow life. He discovered a love for fine wines, foods, and of course.....women. After only living in Argentina for a little more than a year, he found the love of his life. A dashing beauty named Romina Lione. They were married shorlty there after in a gothic church built by the cappucinos. The after party was held in the Palacio Ferreyra which consisted of about 500 guests or so. Most of his associates and family members flew out for the wedding and party. It was a grand evernt, fit for a king. After living in Argentina for about three years, he moved back to the states with his wife and unborn child. His whereabouts are currently unknown, but you can still catch him stunning at a high end joint on the weekends.....if you know where to look.
The second grandson is Austin Hoffmann A.K.A. "The #1 Stunna". He was born on June 19th, 1985 in Los Angeles, California. He also grew up in Hollywood and caught the Irish side of the family. As Wally married an Irish Mic. Austin quickly learned from the evil ways of his brother and sought out his own road with less attention and fame, but none the less, the glory and crime was still there. Although his life is undocumented from 1995 to 2000, he was seen spotted in Argentina at his brothers wedding. There is actual footage of his presence and it is a 10 second clip of him downing a crystal flower vase full of Champagne with his accomplice Marcos. He is a well known alcoholic amongst his peers, and they say that when he drinks he looks happy, but this is when he is most dangerous. Many have lost their lives when he in under the influence.

The third grandchild is Christopher Cassell A.K.A. "The Simoan". He was also born in Los Angeles, California. He lived the first part of his life with the "family" in Hollywood, but was quickly swept away to the big island of Hawaii, due to a threat on the family.
