<h2><span style="font-size: medium;">New Orleans Has a New Boss</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">Michael Tufaro seems to have taken control of the New Orleans Mafia along with his brother Joseph "Joey" Tufaro. The Tufaro brothers have a five decade family history in the New Orleans Mob. They also have family ties to the New York Colombo Family that go back to the 80's. Here are a few links and some other information that supports this line of thinking.</span></h2><a class="postlink" href="http://www.nola.com/news/index.ssf/2009/05/slidell_residents_say_fees_mis.html"><span style="color: orange;">http://www.nola.com/news/index.ssf/2009/05/slidell_residents_say_fees_mis.html</span></a><br />

<strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Michael Tufaro reputed "Capo/Street Boss" of the New Orleans Mafia was arrested on 06-19-2010 for aggravated battery.</strong></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><strong>Although Mr. Tufaro's version of the events on that day greatly differed from that of the victim's he did plead guilty to simple battery.The victim and a co-worker who both work for the Motorist Assistance Patrol stated that "Mr. Tufaro was passed out in his vehicle and they knocked on the vehicle's window attempting to wake the subject up, which he did, and proceeded to place his vehicle in gear and strike the victim in his legs, causing him to hit the hood of the vehicle,before losing his balance and falling to the ground. The perpetrator then moved his vehicle forward, striking the victim again."<br />
<br />
In Mr. Tufaro's version of the events he stated " I was sitting in my car on side of the Interstate talking on the phone when these two guy's walked up to my car and banged on my window. So I got out of my car, words were exchanged and yes I was angry. Did I throw the first blow ? Maybe. But this was a fist fight, two against one and I won that fight. I am guilty of hitting both of them with my fist, yes. But never did I hit anyone with my car."</strong></span><strong> </strong><br />

<h2><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
La Stella restaurant bust in Queens back in the 60s. You will probably recognize a couple names also:</span></h2><h2><div style="display: table; table-layout: fixed; width: 100%;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.moagnyc.org/images/fbfiles/images/la_stella_sm.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" closure_uid_9qrqv5="3" src="http://www.moagnyc.org/images/fbfiles/images/la_stella_sm.gif" style="max-width: 540px;" /></a></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><a href="http://www.moagnyc.org/images/fbfiles/images/la_stella_sm.gif" rel="lightbox"><span style="font-size: small;"></span></a></div></div></h2><h2><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">That meeting was the beginning of a rift in New Orleans that split organized crime in the Crescent City into two factions and has effected it to this very day. As many already know Carlos Marcello's control was challenged by Anthony Carolla the son of Sylvestro "Sliver Dollar Sam" Carolla the former boss. Sylvestro Carolla was deported in 1947 and appointed Carlos Marcello as "acting boss" until his return which lasted only one year 1949 to 1950. In 1952 Sylvestro Carolla was arrested in Italy for narcotics trafficking and would not return to the U.S. until 1970 for medical treatment, he died in 1972. By the time of the La Stella's meeting in 1966 the Carolla faction of the New Orleans crime family were feeling very diminished due to Marcello's refusal to allow new membership. Marcello's refusal to allow new membership was a move to consolidate his power. What is not so well known is that Joseph Colombo set up the La Stella's meeting and sided with Anthony Carolla but was out voted. Colombo managed to gain one concession for Anthony Carolla, new membership would be allowed but limited. That limited new membership included Joseph "Joe The Nose" Tufaro a close friend of Anthony Carolla and former driver of Sylvestro Carolla. Joseph Tufaro's grandson Michael Tufaro is thought to be the guy calling the shots in New Orleans today. This LCN family is very very different than the families of the northeast. These guy's don't just operate in the shadows they are in the shadows of the room that's under the basement. Information on these wiseguys is hard to come by unless your really looking, but it is out there.<br />

this "family was the predecessor of all subsequent "families, it has been afforded the highest respect and esteem and because of its exalted position the New Orleans "family could make decisions on its own without going to the "Commission. Source
learned that the New Orleans "family under CARLOS MARCELLO had only five remaining members the "boss the "underboss, a "consulieri, and two "soldiers, the youngest of which was in his mid-40's Source learned that the New Orleans "family faces extinction
unless new members are allowed in Source learned that the New Orleans "family could have on its own "opened the books, but because of the tact and diplomacy of CARLOS MARCELLO he sought "Commission approval in making new "soldiers, which
the "Commission naturally granted Source conjectured that this was one of the reasons for the La Stella Restaurant meeting During 1972 NO T-17 advised that he has recently been in touch with several of his long-time friends as a result
of some of the wakes and funerals that they have attended recently for mutual acquaintances He said that at a recent wake he conferred with several people including NOFIO PECORA who reminisced for awhile about "the good old days. Source
said that PECORA indicated to him that "These young punks don't know nothin'. Source said that PECORA reminisced about "the Black Hand and said that "I never made no money with anybody livin All the guys I dealt with are
dead now. Source said that PECORA told him that he was happy to see JIMMY CAMPO die and said "That's good riddance. Source said that he then questioned PECORA because he remembered that PECORA "stood up for CAMPO when he

East and tried to take over some of the action from the local New Orleans natives Source said that PECORA gave him the impression from the way he talked that there currently are several factions of "organized crime elements within
the New Orleans area Source said that it was his impression from talking to PECORA that PECORA was a "Black Hand, and did not care to be identified with the current version of the Mafia or La Cosa Nostra " src="http://www.maryferrell.org/mffweb/servlet/PageImage?mode=getPage&fileName=aarc-fbi517-03_0002_0007&pageId=869207&mag=null&monochrome=true&extension=.png&rotatation=default&actualWidth=12240&orientation=portrait" /> <br />
