The Men Behind Mob Wives

Joseph Ferragamo, Louis Facciolo and Bruno Facciolo

This ebook contains the biographies of the men behind VH1 Mob Wives Carla Facciolo, who are her claim to fame as one of the La Cosa Nostra stars of the hit reality TV show. Carla's qualifications come from three different directions.

Mob Wife: Fans of the show hear Carla talk about her ex-husband, Joseph “Joe” Ferragamo, regularly. Although he's not a “made man”, Joe was convicted of running a stock fraud sceme, known as a boiler room scam. Allegedly, he shared his proceeds with The Mob.

Mob Daughter: Carla's father, Louis “Louie” Facciolo, was an alleged Gambino Crime Family associate. Mob rat, Salvatore “Sonny” Visconti, was responsible for setting him up, going against the omerta code. Louie was arrested in a FBI bust that took place on January 23, 1997.

Mob Niece: Carla's Uncle Bruno Facciolo, was directly associated with The Mob. He was a mobster in the Lucchese Crime Family. After he was arrested, Mafia shot callers assumed that he had become a mob rat. He was murdered by NYPD Mafia Cops, and later found dead in the trunk of his own car with a canary stuffed in his mouth.
