Joseph Salvatore „Skinny Joey“ Merlino (* 16. März 1962) ist ein italienisch-amerikanischer Mobster der amerikanischen Cosa Nostra und gilt seit dem Jahr 1998 offiziell als Oberhaupt der Bruno-Familie, auch bekannt als Philly Mob oder Philadelphia-South Jersey Mafia Joseph Merlino wird als eine besonders bösartige Person, besessen von seinem eigenen Bild in der Öffentlichkeit und als eine andere Version von John Gotti beschrieben. „Joey war ein Party-Kerl“, sagte der ehemalige Mafia-Soldat und spätere Regierungszeuge Ronald „Big Ron“ Previte. „Er ließ sich gern gehen, er spielte gern und mochte das High-Life.“ Er lud TV-Crews zu seiner jährlichen Weihnachtsfeier für Obdachlose ein und war ein fester Bestandteil der Nachtclubs, Restaurants und Sportveranstaltungen der Stadt. Die Medien nannten ihn den „John Gotti der Passyunk Avenue“, wegen seines ähnlich unverfälschten und auffälligen Stils. Der La Cosa Nostra-Experte Scott Burnstein sagte über Merlino gegenüber dem Vice Magazin: „Meiner Meinung nach ist er eine Verbrecher-Ikone, die man in einem Atemzug mit den dynamischsten, schneidigsten und ambitioniertesten Mafia-Anführern aller Zeiten nennen kann.“ (de) Joseph Salvatore "Skinny Joey" Merlino (born March 13, 1962) is an Italian-American mobster and reputed boss of the Philadelphia crime family. He rose to power in the mid-nineties after he allegedly fought a war for control of the criminal organization. He has led the crime family in gambling, loan sharking, drug trafficking, and extortion. In comparison to other traditional mob bosses who shunned the limelight, Merlino has interacted regularly with the media and the public, often openly providing charity and hosting events to benefit indigent people in Philadelphia, drawing comparisons to the similarly outgoing, conspicuous, and ostensibly charitable late New York crime boss John Gotti. He is the son of deceased Philadelphia crime family underboss Chuckie Merlino. With the help of boss-turned-informant Ralph Natale, Merlino was convicted of several RICO charges including racketeering, illegal gambling and extortion, in 2001, and sentenced to 14 years in prison. Since his release from prison in 2011, the FBI and organized crime reporters believe he continues to run the Philadelphia–South Jersey Mafia. Merlino disputes this, saying he has retired from a life of crime. As of 2015, Merlino divides his time between south Florida and Philadelphia. (en) |
