We drive through Brooklyn as Dominick describes his wealthy life on Westlake. His big Sunday party with drug lords, gangsters and crips. shake footage and audio issues.
That was so hilarious at 6:36 where Dom is telling Ross to slow down & Ross's annoyed reaction in the background. 🤣 Dom's Sunday shindigs must've been outta control awesome back in the day!
Out of all Dom's stories, it's some of his Cali stories that I really have trouble believing. All the cars, the ridiculous house, the "colombian friends and crip friends" at his "Sunday Parties." It sounds like his ideal version of what he wished it had been like. It's a movie. Like Scarface. And maybe it was like that. But i doubt it. At least i giarantee it's not close to the 100% truth. Maybe 60% truth. Nevertheless, I love Dom, his stories, and the REAL shit he did for America in Vietnam. And he WAS the real deal when be was in New York. Where people can actually vouch for him--Sammy the Bull talks about him, plus his cop/government buddies. But theres no pictures or any peoplle or arrest records or absolutely anything to verify any of his Cali stories are even half truths.
At least they're more believable than Sammy Gravano's stories. In his stories even Scarpa and Chin were in awe of him. In one interview he said that when he met Roy Demeo, Roy was bragging about "his coffee boy doing six murders". In the next interview it was already "30 murders". "Coffee boy" was probably Dracula Guglielmo. I know he was involved with the Crew killings but Sammy's stories aren't consistent. He also told a story about Roy where he fantasized killing all the 70-80-year olds in a cafeteria. Based on Murder Machine and Albert's book that didn't sound like Roy at all. He was ruthless but his killings were 99% business and he had a lot of sympathy for problematic people like Freddy (dyslexia) and even accepted a fat homosexual Vito Arena and his boyfriend to his inner circle (despite protests from the crew members).
There was A LOT of money to be made from cocaine in the 70s/80s, especially in a city like LA. Buy a key direct from Colombia for 5k and then break it down and sell it on the street in the US for 45k, those are accurate 1970s prices according to Joe Pistone. I have no doubt that he made an absolute fortune. He probably did blow it all on fast cars and big houses. That's how mob guys lived. They would make a score, live like a king until the money ran out, then live in poverty until the next big payday. Remember, Dominick was friendly with a lot of the cops that investigated his crimes, right up until his dying day. None of them ever suggested that he exaggerating or lying about his criminal activity.
Feels like he created a fantasy where he was bigger, badder and more successful than Roy. I think Dom was really hurt that Nino sponsored Roy for membership and not him.
My understanding is he was broke when he just relied on Nino. He started to rake it in with The Hole In The Wall Gang. When he split to LA, he apparently didn't take whatever stash of money he had. He began to make bank in LA after a tough period financially.
@@therealdominickmontiglio Thanks! 👍 I was thinking along similar lines. Need to buy the documentary so i can watch the whole thing. Extremely good work!
This is the best takeaway from observing Dom. I think the "Acting Capo" stuff betrays Dom's jealous of Roy. A big part of Dom's persona is being the ruthless hustler.
@kylez3354 acting capo comes from Dom standing in for nino in his dealings with the Demeo crew while Nino was in Florida for several months each year . Dom was never jealous of Roy . He did things for Nino that were only able to happen because he was ninos nephew. Nino was a capo .. so acting capo… that’s it
Something I don't understand. Dom gets pinched by LAPD then released. But Pergola and the Organized Crime Squad were looking for him in NYC. Why weren't they informed of his whereabouts?
i wish i could understand his story and timeliness all of these short videos dont make sense . some times hes broke and sometimes hes making money with drugs and afterhours clubs
So he built a million $$ house on the beach, had a sailboat and had a Maserati , he was only in California a few years ??? Sure sounds like he did "borrow" stacks of Ninos money for "start up cost" !!!! Even If he did steal Ninos money,,,I'm sure Nino stole it from someone else ,no honor among thieves (or family), I know Dominic swears he didn't,, but the pieces of the puzzle sure fit easier that he did!!!! , I mean no disrespect to Dominic R.I.P.
Did you even read MM , they went over this clearly. He was selling massive amounts of blow at that time & pulling robberies & schemes and got on a lease to buy with that house.
@@jimthompson4068 that wasn't the original intention of going back to NYC. You obviously didn't read MM or see ANY of the documentaries dom was in. There was a huge amount of "supposed" quayludes that fell into Val and Danielle's possession. It was doms connections they were getting rid of them to. The quayludes ended up being fake at which point they were broke & ended up with a plan b with dom trying to shake down Jeffery winick for money leant to him with vig years prior.
@@jimthompson4068 Probably because the LAPD bust disrupted his coke and armed robbery businesses. Plus, he was pissed off at Jeff Winnick for double crossing him.
Yeah an estate that cost $1 million just to build not including the property no one in the last 40 years remodeled it and the same bathroom with the same tub intact is still sitting there and wired up correctly like no electrician seen some weird wire spliced going in a weird direction like what the fuck is this and where is it going? On top of if u think there was really 500k in cash under that tub he would of never made any attempts to retrieve it after all these years being broke…..
We did attempt to get it . We couldn’t get onto the private island . You think with that story we just stood still ?? Lol . We flew to California!! That’s another story unto itself
Millions of dollars, houses, girls, cars, drugs, powers, etc… is all being bragged upon… sure couldn’t tell that now? Lesson to learn-devil can put so called power in your hand, BUT in time the devil will put poverty in your life, IF he don’t take it…. Sure looks different in video than what’s being described don’t it? Give that credit to Satan. He will roll out the red carpet, but it a carpet that leads to eternal hell.
