Episode 49: Joseph "Joe Beck" DiPalermo

On Episode 49 of the Sit Down, Jeff delves into the life of drug kingpin and Lucchese mobster Joseph "Joe Beck" DiPalermo. Joe Beck is a guy many people don't know, but he is one of the largest drug dealers in the history of the mob and knew some very powerful people. He is one of the wheels that turned the Lucchese family during the golden age of the mob. Also in the first few minutes of the show, Jeff talked a bit about a question he received on his opinion of how many mob families are still active around America today. A short one this week, but a great story nonetheless!
