One Brave Reporter Showed Up To Mob Boss "Franky Boy" Cali's Funeral - Promptly Told "Get The Fuck Out Of Here Before I Blow Your Fucking Head Off"
NY POST - Slain Gambino crime family boss Francesco “Franky Boy’’ Cali was laid to rest in a white-pillared, red-marble mausoleum on Staten Island on Tuesday — after his associates “came in with a suitcase on Saturday and paid my boss $45,000 in cash,’’ a gravedigger there told The Post.
…The worker said that after Cali’s entombment, the small group of people who attended it walked down to the parking area, which is near the cemetery’s chapel and office.
“Some guy from ABC was asking a question in the office. And [a] mob guy said, ‘Get the f–k out of here before I blow your f–king head off,’ ” the worker said.
If you’re ever wondering why I dropped out of journalism school to work at Barstool, it’s not just the smokeshows and free bagel Mondays – it’s the peace of mind I get being able to report on the reporting of others instead of having to get out there and do it myself. Case in point: the poor bastard who got sent to Franky Boy Cali’s mafia funeral attended by mafia members.
“Some guy from ABC was asking a question in the office. And [a] mob guy said, ‘Get the f–k out of here before I blow your f–king head off,’ ” the worker said.
Couldn’t be happier with my feet kicked up over here blogging about the New York mob from the comfort of my corner, where the biggest danger is sliding my chair back too far and being buried by an avalanche of PFT’s trash bags full of clothes and hot sauce.
Anyway, according to the gravedigger, Cali’s funeral was fitting for a Godfather: long stemmed roses and a view of the ocean, paid for with a literal briefcase full of $45K cash.
“He’s up in the mausoleum, in the middle section,’’ the longtime worker said of Cali’s final resting place at the Moravian Cemetery, pointing to the top of a sprawling hill where the murdered mob chief now occupies a space on the lower level of the two-tiered structure — with a view of the ocean.
About three dozen long-stemmed white roses were scattered in front of Cali’s crypt, which bore a temporary white-tape label that read “FRANCESCO CALI 1965 2019.’’
After being unceremoniously and disrespectfully murdered in his own driveway, cops arrested a 24 year old “nobody” for what is being described as “the dumbest killing in NYC history“: revenge for Cali breaking up his relationship with his niece.
“This went from the perfect crime to amateur hour,” a law enforcement source told the Post. “Anthony Comello will go down in the record books as being one of the dumbest killers in New York City history, if not in the U.S. and the world. Not to mention that the victim was the head of the Gambino crime family.”
Good luck in prison buddy!
