SANTO did not seem to be oe sympathetic toward California LCN leadership, especially the way it was portrayed in the recent "Life" magazine article which ridiculed the San Jose. Family. He suggested that the informant attempt to regain his "Capo" status SANTO indicated he was more closely connected with the Chicago leadership than with the Detroit leaders and that he generally liked the idea of one LCN Family for all of California with closer ties to Chicago. SANTO questioned the informant about the "Life" magazine article regarding the San Jose Family. The informant told him it was all true. He told SANTO that at the time he was a close friend of LCN "Capo" ANGELO MARINO of San Jose. He described how ANGELO's an father, SALVATORE MARINO, had been a "Capo" in the San Jose Family and that several years ago, the San Jose LCN boss, JOE CERRITO, -wanted SAL to step down. SAL contacted the informant to get his Opinion and the informant advised him that since CERRITO felt that way, he should step down, but only on condition that his son, . ANGELO, take his place. CERRITO agreed to this and this is how ANGELO became "Capo". SANTO desoribed ANGELO as a very weak man who could not kill any- one if his own life deremled on it and that he had no talent what- ever for LCN racket activity; that most of his adult life was spent chasing women and gambling while his father had to run the California Cheese Co. m he informant told SANTO that around 1963 or 1964 ANGELO came to contact the informant and told him that he had received an execution contract and sought advice. The informant advised that ANGELO wanted him to help him but he told ANGELO he was still on parole and could have nothing to do with it. He told ANGELO to take a couple of trusted 'soldiers" and carry out the contract. Sometime later he heard that the intended victim was picked ub by INS for deportation and he always suspected ANGELO, instead of killing the intended victim, made an anonymous call to have him picked up rather than kill him. He stated that from questioning ANGELO at that time, he learned ANGELO had even talked to the intended victim while the contract. was in force and he also learned the contract had been given ANGELO by the LCN San Jose boss, JOE CERRITO. — Docld: 32305829 Page 4
