Imagine being so murderous that even the Mafia can't tolerate you.
Mexican cartel: here you go sir, we have a table for you
It happens
The mafia didn't tolerate anything that brought unnecessary attention to their activities.
@@ShivaOO7 especially drugs
@@josephtalmadge3108 yet they all sold drugs
I love that a police officer "determined the trunk was empty" but it had a chandelier, a dead body of a heavy set man, and a spare tire. Not even close my dude
😂😂😂…..Same thing I said
Maybe his first day on the job
Trunk was overly heavy
He just didn’t want to do the paperwork
@@michaeldiekmann6494 LOL
Learning about DeMeo will have you questioning how many people in this world go down that rabbit hole. That man was EVIL.
What the what?! CA is on a random video I'm watching! That's dope. Thanks for all the great videos and the laughs. Keep it up bro.
Look at his crew. They were also able to tolerate that gore too. Same with guys like Tommy Karate. A maggot would get sick doing the stuff they did.
Like you
@@astasui ?
@@astasui 😅🤣😂
When a killer makes other killers uncomfortable , he really is on another killing level..
Look up Jimmy Coonan, the boss of the Westies crew....total psychopath serial killer.
Maybe the man in question was simply misunderstood.
In that racket, they're all equally dangerous.
Some are just a little more psychotic than others. It's obvious, Roy was talking to the voices in his head.
Edgar allen poe over here
Scumbags, all of them.
So creepy how these freaks could kill so ruthlessly and then go home and have dinner with their family like it was nothing.
This is why there are people out there who "respect" these people. They somehow don't realize that the families of these people were used as a cover to hide their sick ways.
@@luvbig41 it’s really scary that these psychopaths are able to have seemingly good family lives with a wife and children. Even though they are basically incapable of feeling any true emotions besides anger,rage and hate,many of them are able to fake their emotions and they can be really charming as well. They are so good at deceiving people and luring them into a false sense of safety and that is what makes them so dangerous IMO.
To them, it was a job.
@@trossk And they were very proficient at it too,doesn’t change the fact that they were wack jobs.
@@REBEL368KSW oh yeah 💀💀
Policeman leaned on the hood and rocked the car up and down deciding the trunk was empty. Great forensics work
😂😂
Thats not how it happened! The fbi actually popped the trunk!
Imagine thinking rocking a car up and down is forensic work 😂
Forreal
Goes to show you how police work was in the 1980’s… smh. Lol
Listening to Sammy the bull talk about DeMeo really shines light on just how gone this dude really was. He was killing for fun outside of the business and that also made him extremely dangerous.
He was envisioning killing an entire room of senior citizens!
@@natedolo6789 Yeah man! Just shows how gone he really was mentally.
@Johnny Caruthers He's not wrong. Roy was a stone cold killer. He used to have his crew go out and kill random people, mostly puerto ricans, just to keep them "sharp" for when a real contract came in. He once said "his coffee boy has 6 bodies." Roy enjoyed killing, he was a different breed.
@@wtyeager Nope he was an idiot
@Johnny Caruthers It came from mafia rat Sammy the bull gravano
"It's THE JACKET!" "That guy had the toughest reputation in the neighborhood but he never got back after I got true with him."
Yeah the husband tonies sister killed loved telling that story
Have a little respect for Richie Aprile. For a little man he sure had a lot of Moxie.
that was rocco dimeo lol had the toughest reputation in essex county but never came back after richie got through with him lol
@@kevinfeeney7371 Jesus Christ that was a remedial comment
@@johnnyjacuzzi7498 i was probably drunk high who knows
"Nah. Nothing in the trunk. Tow it away."
Technicians discovered a chandelier and a man's dead body in the trunk.
To be fair, unless they heard screaming from the trunk they still would've towed it before opening. Gotta make sure that they actually can open the trunk first or else everything they find is useless in court.
Bet that cop got made fun of for years though.
lol
Not just a body but a fucking chandelier too
“I didn’t see nothin”
The cop was probably thinking that anything inside the trunk would be heard or felt when he was jumping up and down on the vehicle like it was a kids bounce house but the body and all the contents in the trunk were probably frozen to the car because of the frigid temperatures not allowing it to bounce around while the cop did a ballet routine across the top of the vehicle.
Can't go wrong with DeMeo. A walking nightmare.
Even John Gotti turned down the contract to take out Roy DeMeo because Roy's crew was too dangerous.
@@HypnoticHollywood That's a pretty fierce reputation.
I've dealt with people like him and I have to say these are individuals you'll never wanna have anything to do with unless you absolutely have to. There's no safe whit them , they'll top you for the most ridicule reasons and aside from some perks of having them in your corner "eventually" you won't want them in your like . trust me on that.
These guys only pick on those who fear them. It's why mobs don't mess with street gangs. Street gangs have no code, no loyalty. Just look at the crips and bloods.
@@DroneStrike1776 you honestly believe that? Not about the street gangs because I know all too well there's no honor anymore. But as far as the demeos and other like individuals only picking on guys who fear them i couldnt disagree more.
When they talk about scumbags it’s always with nice words, like they are heroic
"Roy was devastated over the death of a civilian" I doubt Roy could care about anyone other then Roy, he was devastated because he knew he had just crossed the line and was as good as dead
True! If he doesn't care about all that people that he and his people kill you think he's going to be worried about a italo-hispanic salesman. I don't think so my friend
Exactly.
He was terrified of the Columbians coming to kill him. Some tough guy. He was too much of a ghoul to last long. His crew chopped up over 300 bodies
Actually he had a conscience for all outside the criminal culture.
@@rottweilertom he did murder for hire
Thanks so much. Hollywood has slept on the Demeo crew. A good, accurate movie about Roy and CO. is long over-due. One of the most terrifying people ever...
I keep sayin that!
Exactly.
Yup. The sopranos are based on the demeo family. I’m from Trenton nj. The dtillitano family are known. Sammy the bull gravano admitted to killing franky stale. On orders from the scarfo/Bruno family. Although the merlino family in Philadelphia is definitely not what it once was, there 1000% still around
@@gregoryhawsjr3479 scarfo was deadly as well. Imagine if they gotten together
@@gregoryhawsjr3479 I thought it was the de cavalcante family it was very loosely based on
Been into mafia history since I was a kid. I remember reading about DeMeo and his crew, especially about the Gemini twins. They were some sick fucks.
My best friend is related to Al Capone, she and her family have many stories to tell, it's pretty cool!
I've always been interested too. Such an interesting topic.
My best friend’s uncles ,sisters step brothers dog was related to lassie so there 🤣😂
@@andyachilleos5013silvereagle that's so funny I'm LMFAO 😂👏👏
The Gemini Twins killed my friend Cherie Golden.
@@k.r.murphy4301 condolences
I came here from Sammy Gravano’s channel. His stories about Roy DeMeo made it pretty clear that even a hardened mob killer like Sammy the Bull found DeMeo unsettling. I won’t go as far as saying he was scared of the guy, but he made sure never to drop his guard around Roy, and seemed to prefer to avoid the psycho.
Sammy literally killed his own friends so he could take over their businesses. He’s got some good insight, but don’t fall for the good hearted gangster shtick
Gotti and his crew were terrified of DeMeo. They refused Castellano's order to kill DeMeo because of it.
@@Jannakennels he didn’t say Sammy was good hearted, he said Sammy found Roy unsettling. Which I believe.
Which friends are you refering to? Louie Millito was killed because he was playing both sides of the fence during the castellano hit, Sammy did not want to kill him but planned the hit on the orders of Frankie Decicco and Gotti. Nicky Cowboy was killed because he was an uncontrollable drug addict with a lot of debts. He didn’t like Paul when the plan to kill him was made, none of them did. They wanted to control the family and also save Gotti and Ruggieros lives who would most likely be killed if Paul got a hold of ruggieros tapes.
You can say he’s lying if you’d like, you have 0 evidence that he is but why let that get in the way if you’ve already decided
Had Roy been around, Gotti would've been shelved and the others killed about that drug beef
@Habibi Arab Cat iceman was lying about all the people he killed.
Another excellent episode. I never have a single complaint about the quality of your work.
the voice is on point
Murder machine was one of the best Mafia books I have ever read! Demeo’s crew was RUTHLESS.
Read “butcher: anatomy of a mafia psychopath” by Philip carlo
@@doomd1816 great book
@@doomd1816 thank you Mr Lasagna I will read this book plus the one the finooke above you first mentioned ... Sincerely

Jk kidding about the finooke .. 🎷 mini ,🚐
@@MrBillkaz 😂😂😂
Just finished "Murder Machine". If DeMeo wasn't bad enough, he also somehow managed to find an entire crew of potential serial killers and groom them to his likeness. His behaviour (not just the murders, but the other horrific "businesses" he was engaged in) sickened other mobsters. But, being the morally vacant people they are, they changed the rule of "you can't do that" to "you can't tell me you're doing that", as long as he kept making money for them. Doesn't speak well for the mob that his underlings (the one's that lived anyway) were given spots in other crime families after Roy was disposed of.
Tommy Karate, and Greg Scarpa were just as bad or worse..!!!!
@@princessgreisydicrescento4562 Tommy Karate's a lovely bloke. He was line dancing champion in Levinworth..
@@dannick9442 😅🤣😂
@@princessgreisydicrescento4562 no lol
The funny thing is that Greg scarpa was apparently crazier
Doesn't matter how crazy you are, someone will and can always put an end to you.
Yea that's true,there's always the great equalizer
@Habibi Arab Cat Richard had nothing to do with the Gambino family what so ever. He was a pathological delusional liar. He fabricated alot of what he told ppl and it's been proven he didn't know or have any dealings with DeMeo other than buying a gun off him at 1 point. Demeo was taken out by his own crew testa, gaggi etc.
@Habibi Arab Cat he was a killer no doubt about it but that's how Cosa nostra works. Italian mob especially any of the 5 families in n.y don't get outsiders to do any hits for them. They have their own ppl for that and that's a fact.
@Habibi Arab Cat well you have your opinion but that's not the case. I have blood related relatives who are part of that life and I've been told by well known ppl they never knew him.
I absolutely love documentaries on mob family. Thank you for doing this.
Some people unwind with a drink, I unwind with the murderous loan shark. Thanks Serial Killers❤
I like to unwind with a long poop and a magazine. I flush my cares away.
Yep
I do both. Beer and serial killers.
I know thats right...
@@RichardLongsnifferJrIII lll
Really enjoy this channel! Please keep up the great work!
wow tysm for such a detailed and thoughtful summation and also for the song at the end I really appreciate your editorial considerations
Tysm ?
Your end credits short with the 'Wild Bunch' in the open top car is rather wickedly funny! Keep it coming please.
Another job well done SKD. Can't wait for next weeks premiere. Thanks for staying up to chat with us.
Your conclusions/endings are always so good.
I was born and raised in Canarsie Brooklyn. The Testas lived up the block from me on 87th street. There was Anthony, Joey, Frank, Patty and Dennis Testa. My cousins husband was related to them. Anthony Senter had an apartment on 87th also. I am still friends with Anthony Senters sister Maryjane and some of the Testa family. Patty Testa got killed back in 1992 at his shop on Foster Avenue around the block from me, by Anthony Gaspipes people. Anthony Senters uncle Robert owned the Canarsie recycling company. He had trucks pick up the dumpsters and they ended up at the dump on the Belt Pkwy. There were other guys we knew like the Vario crew, Nicky and Jo Jo Corozzo, Vic Amuso, Tommy Red, Mike Yanotti, Vinny Dimino among others. Miss the good old Canarsie days!
But on the other hand...
another correction for you. He did take a cut from everyone BUT he did not spend one dime on lawyers or helping the families of members in prison. He kept it all.
Yuss! I was just about to listen to one of your other episodes 🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Awesome like always Tudor! You're so good
Anytime your savagery makes Sammy the Bull uncomfortable you're on a whole other level. Big Paulie was losing control of Roy so he had to go but ironically killing Roy took away the fear of Paulie and made it comfortable for Gotti to kill Paul without fear of retaliation. Gotti would never have killed Paul if Roy was still alive.
It was inevitable that Gotti would take Big Paul out regardless of what took place with Roy. Gotti was never for Big Paul and Paul hated Gotti. One was going to whack the other. Gotti being street smart and ambitious managed to gain Sammy’s allegiance which spelled Big Paul’s doom. Ironically, Gotti did more damage to organized crime with his flamboyant behavior than all other rat mobsters combined.
@@prevost8686 exactly! Gotti wanted the power but had no idea how to use it to advance the mobs control influence or profitability once he got it. Paul was greedy but he ran the mob like a fortune 500 company much to the dismay of alot of members obviously most notably Gotti
You completely wrong. It was Neil Dellacroce who kept Costellano alive, not Roy Demeo.
@@wadewilson8011 yea after Roy was killed if Roy was still alive after Neil died Gotti would've tried to recruit Roy to his side but if he didn't switch against Paul Gotti wouldn't have risked it or probably attempted a hit on RoY first before going after Paul
The lore..
This still doesn’t change the facts that there are 49 million kangaroos in Australia and 3.5 million people in Wales which means if kangaroos were to invade Wales each person will have to fight 14 kangaroos. 😃
Why arent more ppl talking about this!!!
This comment has made me laugh uncontrollably for the last 10 minutes! 😂👍🙏
😆😆😆
oh so funny...
🦘 are very dangerous, underrated problem
It’s an old Sicilian symbol.
Roy DeMeo sleeps with the chandeliers.
Haha
Lol
@@kirk4478 I don’t know about that.
@@kirk4478 That makes sense.
@@kirk4478 or more likely he just forgot to take the chandelier out of the trunk. If they really dragged a chandelier to a hit as a symbol instead of say a , flashlight or something smaller they're bigger clowns than I thought
I guess we all learned that bouncing up and down on a bumper is no way of determining if there is a body in the trunk.
Lololololol
That's all I got out of this and cops ARE stupid
😂👍
Oh doll you know it come on. Philadelphia USA
@@lauriemarie6902 is that how they do things in Philly?
This crew had access to a very large garbage dump located right off the belt parkway just a couple of miles from Carnarsie Brooklyn and the Gemini lounge. I grew up just a mile or 2 from that same dump but on the east side of it and during the summers the smell from that place was horrendous , definitely could smell rotting flesh . That dump is no longer and NYC has turned it into a park .
Shipped it all off to Fresh Kills and called it a day.
It was the fountain ave dump in Brooklyn not S.I.
💯
Remember that dumps smell well. The Gemini lounge was about four blocks from my house.
If this world is still standings five thousand years from now some archaeologists will unearth remains from that dump and surmise that it was a religious center where human sacrifices were made to the Grasshopper god…

Hi Doc , thank you for sharing this story! 🌺🐝
Can't wait my friend you always do amazing videos I binge watch all your videos so interesting to see inside a seriel killers mind
Been waiting for this one... thanks
Wow! Super well researched. Thank you.
Very detailed upload, another phenomenal job👍🏻, some cases are like a history lesson, it needs to be told, from Florida be safe all✌🏻😷
I had heard about De MeO but wasn't aware of the extent of his voracity for death and power. Amazing documentary and awesome pics, thanks SKD!
@M78 thanks!
Check out Sammy the Bulls channel. He had a good story about De Meo.
Read the story about George Byram,, Roy DeMeo and Nino Gaggi murdered him Florida, it was Brutal
Highest quality gets the highest praise. Thank you for your diligence, Sir.
This was delightful. Really well done
Delightful isn't how I'd describe it. Excellent documentary, but grim subject matter.
Very well done, as usual
Thank you so much for the video! This is the best breakdown and storynof italian mob culture in the 80s and 90s
The iceman said it the best …. When a reporter ask how he felt when he heard roy got killed he responded by saying “ it was a good day for him to die “ plain , simple and to the point ….
Cryptic though, what does that actually mean? lol
The Iceman didn't know Roy Demeo like he said. He would have ratted out members of the crew if he did like when he lied about Sammy the Bull in court saying he was there when Sammy killed a cop. Iceman lied about a lot of stuff.
Kuklinski has ZERO to do with the mob, he had 1 short interaction with demeo and that was it, kuklinski was a psycopath serial killer, he wasnt a hit man for the mob and he didnt know roy demeo, imagine a psycopath lying about being part of the mob?? 🤯🤯
You have to apply Psychology in order to begin to understand the theory of why or how these men participated in this type of behaviours..there is no correct way in which to condemn their actions..complex childhood, life traumas an many means of poor choices, bad decisions an wrongful socialisation of a person can all be strong factors as to why a person is drawn to or lead into a pathway of such barbarism..or the ability to act so heinously. These factors, are what outlines the differences between people who can engage in committing horrific acts of violence an those that cant. Understanding the Psychology of human behaviours is the start of understanding. It's the only way. The studies on personality disorders explains many levels of human depravity.
I believe, through much reading of research, that we are all born with a blank slate..it is only what others, I.e.our care givers, from when we are born an there after, write upon our slates that decifers how we treat others also the paths we endeavour to go down in our lives..
It's in no way making excuses for a violent man..just a logical idea in how to understand how an why these men in particular are able to do what they do..
Yah that was funny as hell lol
I know this is always said in comment sections, about every mob guy. But I honestly can't believe a movie hasn't been made about the demeo crew. I mean, a gang of serial killers like this, is so rare and unique. Only other gang of serial killers I can think of, is the shankill Butchers.
The creators of the Gemini method
(Btw, that pigeon looks like it's part of the Gambino Family 😅)
The shank hill butchers? Is this during the troubles in Northern Ireland?
I've read and seen a lot on that subject......it's very complex and interesting.......I think it ended up government agents vs government agents
Shankill Butchers? Lowlife bigoted catholic hating scum is all they were. Real bottom of the barrel human trash.
I've always said the same thing. Martin Scorsese new project should be about roy demeo what a movie that would be.
Bodies in the barrels/ or bodies in the bank, a serial killer gang from South Australia, Australia.
Amazing documentary and narration
This channel definitely has the best intro and outro.. I love listening to it lmao
I can imagine everything, great vid!
Thank you for sharing your research.
He was shot 5 times and was known in Mexico as Cinqo De Meo
Silli
Damn. Too soon 😂
Watching this gave me the chills. It left me sick. If there’s a picture of the Devil himself Roy DeMeo’s face would be it. Such brutal evil people 😢
It was a depressing time so people would get a little strange. I remember folks calling Roy "Bella Lugosi"
Great work!
Another thing they learned how to do really well: turning states evidence on each other..
Yeah that's a big part of the game. Sammy the Bull was very smart and seen a life sentence coming. He made his move.
Gaggy tho?
@@briananderson6551 gaggi didn’t rat, neither did Joey or Anthony senter. The only rat was nino nephew Dominic and he wasn’t really involved in a lot of the stuff they were doing
@@chadjones6313 who said gaggi was a rat?
Feds actually offered protection for demeo but he refused
Roy was downright terrifying 😳
The most ruthless, hardcore gangster/killer there was. hundreds slaughtered in a six yr time frame in the Gemini. The only place you could walk in once and come back out multiple times.
Can you believe that the Gemini lounge is now a church!!!!!!!
That's that twisted sense of humor I was talking about!
Sad reality
Interesting video and love the Outro video with all the big timers.
I like how you didn’t glorify this dude,
@DoomedGenX he seems horrifying
If tou want to see this guy glorified, You should attend the weeklong Roy Demeo rockin summer jam. Amazing experience
there’s nothing to glorify about him I respect most of them but people like him if they had more power they would do genocide in cities for sure
@@lltipsy thats what makes the festival so crazy
I grew up on Troy Ave. not far from the Gemini Lounge, and I remember when DeMeo took over the bar and renamed it The Gemini Lounge. I remember that shortly after he took it over in 1966, there were already lots of rumors of what was going on inside, and someone had taken a knife and carved on the front door "House of Ill Repute". Knowing what I learned later, I wonder if whoever carved it made it out alive
I'm sure they were chopped up for that vandalism, people were killed for less
Beautiful videos to listen to thanks man
I grew up on the same street as the Gemini lounge, my parents had told me the mafia ran the place (it was renovated into a church by that time) but I never knew it was Roy’s place of business. Cool
"Cool"?
The sick SOBs murdered well over 100 people there, in the most cruel and cowardly of ways, such as tricking them into thinking they were there as friends, then sneaking up behind them and shooting them in the head, then afterwards cutting up their bodies into pieces.
Renovated into a church? So it's still part of some racket
18:48 - He pledged his allegiance to OMELTA?
Omelta -The secret society of grilled cheese sandwich makers.
Superb narrative, great job on this one! 👌

I like the Mafia stories. They are among my favorites. I remember hearing people talk about the Gemini Lounge when I was growing up and would spend time in Brooklyn. Everyone knew the Mafia was all over Brooklyn.
I’d love to meet the rube who wasn’t aware of any mafia in NYC
What a nightmarish life to live
Booze, coke, pills. Repeat. Thats how you manage a nightmare like DeMeo's existence.
@@deeplorable2913 I'm sure u b correct.
You're putting your brain in their heads they don't look at life and and people the way you do dude. Some guys aren't wired right, and stuff like this doesn't bother them in the slightest.
Not when you're a psychopath, which I'm he was.
Another good one. Thanks. Also, this dovetails nicely with his sons book 'Sins of my Father' which I finished just last week. Obviously, quite a contrast between your piece and his book.
One thing I've noticed is incorrect, paul never was carlo's underboss, paul was always a captain during that era- Aneille delacroce was the underboss.
ty SKD. tudor, each video is better than the last. every story holds your attention till the very end. i love this channel and wait on pins and needles for the next. i hope you and yours are safe and well. until the next video my friend.
This was really well done. The DeMeo crew did meet the criteria for serial killers.
They were serial killers
@@doncarlo9345 no they weren't serial killers.
The mafia don't care for serial killers.
Roy was certainly a serial killer, his crew not really
A serial killer is someone who has a compulsion to kill and is gratified by it. Not somebody who does it as part of his job. If that was the case the military would have more serial killers than anything else possible
Excellent video. Thanks.
Ayyy definitely my favorite episode so far, 🤜🏼🤛🏽
A very close friends father was killed by Roy demeo after Sammy gravano came down from New York to chambersburg in Trenton, New Jersey. Not going to name a name. But he was found in the trunk of his Cadillac at Philadelphia airport parking lot in 1980. Black rose in his mouth for the family
Another great video!! Do you do the narration for this? My friend had thought it might be a TTS voice but I didn't think so!
He hired a narrator to do his videos. I believe its been said that he’s from Canada.
This is excellent work. I've done a considerable amount of research on 1970's Bklyn, and your work is spot on
Guys like him make the Rest of Us walk the Straight line.
No you walk the straight line because of the laws that are in your country, no other reason
Thanks! It’s been awhile since I watched your videos. Been busy covering up state’s evidence… LOL
Lol
Demeo had the last laugh. Testa and Senter in jail since 1989. Borelli in jail since the 80's too. Roy escaped that fate. I think being stuffed in the Cadallic trunk with the Chandelier was the better deal.......
Yup I would rather die on the street then die in boring ass cell.
Great job on this video
Im picky in watching crime docs and i must say i love yours. To the point and clearly stated. No nonsense. Thanks very much
Excellent documentary on Roy DeMeo ✅
I absolutely love this narrator's vocal inflection.
Love this channel 😀❤️👍
great video !
The mafia lifestyle is EVIL.
When I was in Catholic School they called it the "Occult"
I enjoyed this.. thanks! 😁
He always gives such a good commentary ,him and the guy on Monsters r the best
This was brilliant
What amazes me, is that the victims, all went into the gemini lounge😳 Surely, everybody must have known, when you get asked to a meet, with DeMeo’s crew at the gemini lounge, your time is up🤷🏼♂️ Yet they all went, like lambs to the slaughter, unbelievable!
At the gym in our Lounge they mainly targeted African Americans that were there playing card games and they killed them not only for the money but because they were very races
@@lewissharpe6377
The fuck are you even talking about?
Because in that life if called to that meeting you had two choices, show up or leave the life because not showing up for a meeting called by the boss meant death. So it was just a shitty lifestyle all to feel powerful
We grew up near the Gemini Lounge. Our parents would always tell us not to go near it or even on that block. They knew. I guess everyone knew.
Come on, I'm sure some people had very good times there. Even the worst bar can be ok if you are drunk enough. Maybe the jukebox had cool music.
This is great you should do more on mobsters !
Very well documented lots of detail I hadnt heard
Amazing voice , fab narration 👌🏽
I'm excited to finally catch a Livestream!!! Ty so much for another amazing video hun.
I read the book by DeMeo's son. He was a vicious killer but he was a good father and husband. He kept business and family separate.
That's OK then
So he was the good vicious killer
Lol its definitely not ok. At least he was not a complete psychopath like some killers.
As a kid I got to know Mr. Demeo personally and a kind personality with good sense did provide some protection ironically.
I Read that book 2 very interesting
Interesting trivia: Today, the Gemini Lounge is a church.
Interesting fact. The church is now the mafia.
@@jontyvictor gettin' silly timez with 2 yr oldz
As I was scanning down through my list of latest UA-cam notifications, I honestly initially misread this SKD as: 'Roy DeMeo - The Murderous _Lone_ Shark'! 🦈 💀🤦🏻♀️

Heard he went past Vito's place before that
