Seven members of the Gambino crime family pleaded guilty to a violent scheme to control New York's garbage industry - among them, Francesco “Uncle Ciccio” Vicari, pictured here.
In an episode caught by wiretap, Vicari, 64, grabbed a large knife and ordered an associate to go samurai on a troublesome soul, saying: “Get this axe and you make him – two.”
The hoodlums pleaded guilty in Brooklyn federal court Oct. 17.
Using secret recordings and surveillance footage, prosecutors also established fresh evidence demonstrating cooperation between America and Sicilian mobsters.
