This Week In Gang Land
Gangster-Turned-Snitch-Turned-Podcaster Hit With Domestic Violence Charge
He's
been a violent Bonanno crime family gangster, a cooperating witness, and a
podcaster who's moved from Howard Beach to Tampa to Miami while spending six
years behind bars. But he's the same old Gene Borrello. His severe anger
management issues that are documented in numerous filings in Brooklyn
Federal Court have gotten him into new trouble, Gang Land has learned.
Borrello has been charged with having stalked, threatened, manhandled, and robbed a Miami woman with whom he was living. According to an arrest complaint and a videotape, the woman is heard screaming "get off of me" after Borrello chases her out of the kitchen off camera. He allegedly then "grabbed her by the neck" and dragged her around her apartment and back into the kitchen, according to the complaint.
Wearing just boxer shorts, Borrello, 40, can be heard saying "this is crazy, we're completely over" as he chases her out of the kitchen. She is heard screaming for about 30 seconds until he finally drags her back into a "kitchen island," and leaves her there, the complaint states.
Mayoral Wannabe Walden OK With Mob Killer's First Step Act Release
As

prosecutor who wanted five time killer Vito Guzzo to spend the rest of his
life behind bars. But today, Jim Walden, the Independence Party
candidate for Mayor, says he supports the First Step Act of 2018
that will soon return Guzzo to New York, and "would not second guess that
decision."
