Episode 194: Anthony Comello

Jeff Nadu
About this episode
In 2019, Gambino mobster and family heavyweight Francesco "Franky Boy" Cali was killed in front of his upscale home in Staten Island. People in mob circles, aficionados, Mafia experts and law enforcement were curious about the surprising murder. Was a mob war unfolding in New York City? In the end, a person was arrested and it was an unknown 20 something from nearby named Anthony Comello. Who was Anthony Comello and why did he do this? Over the last month, I went to the scene of the crime and spoke to people that knew Comello best. Some of the info in this video came from first hand accounts of people who knew Anthony Comello personally and grew up with him.
