Yesterday SONNY CIANCUTTI \telephonically contacted informant and said that KELLY MANNARINO wanted to see him, Informant met with MANNARINO at the latter's ranch in Allegheny Township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, on the morning of 7/27/71. Oo MANNARINO said he has a friend "out west" who is in trouble, and 'Iimay have to help him." MANNARINO wouldn't tell informant anything. more but merely insisted informant keep himself instantly available to leave to "do a job" for this unidéntified friend ofhis, MANNARINO said informant could take along a partner of his own choosing or he could take SONNY CIANCUTTI, MANNARINO turned’ to CIANCUTTI and said, "You go with him and get dirty; it's about time." Informant has no additional information at: this time. MANNARINO then asked informant if he knew GALLO in New York, and informant said he only knows what he reads about GALLO in magazines, MANNARINO asked if informant knew what GALLO looks like, and informant said he has.only seen magazine photographs of GALLO. MANNARINO then said, "He may come up next;'' and MANNARINO said no more. 0 From his conversation with MANNARINO, during which he did not ask any questions since so doing would be uncharacteristic, he can only surmise. that MANNARINO may have been talking about a "hit" for his friend "out west" or a "muscle job" or a "burglary," but there is no way of being sure without more information, Informant will try to get additional information from CIANCUTTI if possible.
