Summary

Today we welcome an individual from Staten Island named Salvatore Buccheri. Sal grew up in the 90's and 2000's around many of the kids of the people we talk about on this podcast. Eventually he began running small amounts of narcotics and graduated to become a supplier and Mob associate. He rubbed elbows with members of multiple crime families, even getting into it with Bonanno associate Hector "Junior" Pagan. In the end he went to federal prison hobnobbing with some pretty big names. Now he puts his life back together.
