On June 2, 1992, captain in the Genovese Organized Crime Family in New Jersey, Angelo “The Horn” Prisco arranged the murder of his 1st cousin, Angelo Sangiuolo, after he had received the order from his boss, Vincent “Chin” Gigante. Chin ordered the murder because Sangiuolo had been stealing from another Genovese soldier, Anthony Palumbo. After discovering that Sanguiolo had robbed 4 Genovese gambling operations in the Bronx, Prisco received his order from Gigante to kill Sanguiolo. Prisco assigned 2 of his own crew members, John “Johnny Balls” Leto & Paul “Doc” Gaccione to carry out the murder. Prisco then devised a plan to lure Sangiuolo to Prisco’s Bronx, New York, social club. After Sangiuolo arrived, Prisco told him to get into a van with Leto & Gaccione, on the pretense that the 2 mobsters would help Sangiuolo with a problem he was having with another person. Inside the van, Leto shot Sangiuolo numerous times, killing him, then left his body in the back of the van, in the parking lot of a Bronx McDonald's. Prisco then picked up Leto at the McDonald's, & went with him to dispose of the murder weapon. Angelo Prisco was a relative of Genovese crime family soldier Rudolph "Rudy" Prisco, who was identified along with 100s, as members of the crime family by informant Joe Valachi & who was convicted of crimes. Rudy was indicted & convicted of criminal activity from the testimony of Valachi, in 1963. Angelo Prisco was a member of the Purple Gang during the 1970s. He was later invited to join the Genovese family, after the Purple Gang disbanded, & later become a made man. With the 1988 murder of Genovese caporegime John DiGilio, Prisco assumed control of the Genovese family operations in New Jersey. Angelo Prisco was also convicted of conspiring to commit robberies with members of his crew. In 1991 & 1992 robberies, Prisco oversaw various crew members who carjacked & robbed, at gunpoint, jewelry dealers transporting large quantities of gold & other jewelry they had purchased in the Dominican Republic. Prisco received $20k in cash from 1 robbery & a bag of gold worth about $50k from another robbery. Prisco then bragged at his Bronx social club about the armed robberies, passing around a relevant newspaper article.
