NabbedFellas in Freehold, Cranford, Manchester, Manalapan, Jackson, Toms River, Nutley Excerpts from _http://tinyurl.com/2pl9tl_ (http://tinyurl.com/2pl9tl) _Jersey City List - Jersey City, NJ Forum Index_ (http://jclist.com/modules/newbb/index.php) Prosecutors say the unions that deliver cement and other building supplies have long been a magnet for Mafia involvement because mob officials know that if they delay deliveries, construction companies can lose large amounts of money. Of the seven New Jersey men named in the indictment, Nick Calvo, 52, of Nutley and Michael King, 41, of Freehold were charged with extorting the cooperating contractor while he subcontracting for a New Jersey firm, Schiavone Construction. Authorities said they executed warrants and retrieved records from Schiavone offices in Secaucus yesterday. Another labor union official, Louis Mosca, 62, of Cranford, was charged in separate counts with conspiring with Calvo and Joseph "Fat Joe" Agate, 60, of Manchester to get Agate union creden tials and access to a union job. The indictment also charged Cody Farrell, 29, of Manalapan, Ronald Flam, 35, of Jackson and Joseph "Joe Rackets" Casiere, 72, of Toms River with being part of a $2,000-a-day gambling operation. The business manager of a Jersey City labor local is among more than 80 people charged… The indictment referred to Liberty Harbor, a massive project being developed by Peter Mocco, the former mayor of North Bergen, opposite the new Jersey City Medical Center. The federal indictment represents an unprecedented crackdown on mobsters living in New York, New Jersey, and in Italy. “The fact is the dollars involved in the construction industry are so great and the opportunities at so many levels for corruption are so broad, that this is a problem that will never, ever go away….For as long as we’re around, we’ re going to have to fight a ground war in New York and New Jersey,” Mr. Luskin said. _http://jclist.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=12348&forum=10&post_id =140878_ (http://jclist.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=12348&forum=10&post_id=140878)
