Summary

Jeff begins the show with a listener Q/A and gets to the bottom of some of your crime questions. Around the 30 min mark of the show, he delves into the life of Lucchese mob associate Tommy Desimone. Played By Joe Pesci in the film Goodfellas, Tommy was born into the Mafia and as a young kid befriended Jimmy Burke. He would commit many murders, make a ton of money and make a lot of enemies. In the end, by the age of 29, he was manipulated and faced a grisly end. We hope you enjoy the show, please leave us a deserving rating and review!
