Small Update

The Genovese Family Ceremonies (1970s) post has been updated to add Thomas Anthony Principe (1931-1979).

Principe, identified by the FBI as a made member by early March of 1977, was a described as part of a Genovese Family hit team that also included John DiGilio (inducted the previous year). Both men were suspects in several murders committed in the mid-to-late 1970s.

Principe reportedly disappeared around July 14, 1979.

 

At the time one informant noted he and DiGilio were responsible to Captain Vincent 'Chin' Gigante.

 

He appears to have been declared legally dead in 1985.
