For security reasons, prosecutors have asked that the members of the panel be chosen anonymously.<\/p>\n<p>The trial is expected to include hundreds of secretly recorded, wiretapped conversations that allegedly tie Coppola to the corruption of ILA Local 1235, based in Newark.<\/p>\n<p>In one phone conversation Coppola is heard bragging about how the mob controlled a former union president.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were right next to him all the time during this whole thing,\u201d Coppola is quoted as saying.<\/p>\n<p>The indictment alleges that since 1974, the Genovese crime family has had its hooks into Local 1235. During that time, investigators say, the mob arranged no-show jobs for associates, extorted shipping companies by threatening labor slowdowns and work stoppages, and received hundreds of thousands of dollars annually in tribute payments from the union itself.<\/p>\n<p>Two underworld informants, George Barone, a mob soldier and former ILA official, and Thomas Ricciardi, an admitted Lucchese crime-family hit man, have provided information about Coppola, according to court documents, and are expected to testify in the pending trial.<\/p>\n<p>Identified only as \u201cCW\u201d (cooperating witness) in several pretrial motions, Ricciardi has told authorities that Coppola boasted about the Lardiere killing, which took place in the parking lot of a Somerset County motel on Easter Sunday 1977.<\/p>\n<p>Lardiere was serving a sentence for contempt at the time, but had been granted a two-day prison furlough. Authorities said the Genovese crime family ordered him murdered because, while in prison, he had gotten into a fight with and shown disrespect to a high-ranking mobster who was also in jail.<\/p>\n<p>Coppola became a \u201cmade\u201d or formally initiated member of the Genovese organization after carrying out the hit, authorities say.<\/p>\n<p>The shooting, which Ricciardi has said Coppola confirmed to him when they first met in 1983, has taken on folklore status in the New Jersey underworld.<\/p>\n<p>Coppola allegedly approached Lardiere in the parking lot of the Red Bull Inn, pulled out a gun, and tried to open fire. But the gun jammed.<\/p>\n<p>Lardiere laughed and said, \u201cWhat are you going to do now, tough guy?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With that, the story goes, Coppola reached for another gun he had in an ankle holster and shot Lardiere five times.<\/p>\n<p>Prosecutors also had hoped to use testimony from Ricciardi to link Coppola to the 1988 slaying of Ray \u201cThe Barber\u201d Barberio, who was killed in the Downeck section of Newark. Barberio was slain, authorities say, for failing to pay a loan-sharking debt he owed to the Genovese organization.<\/p>\n<p>Ricciardi told authorities that while having drinks with Coppola a few nights before the murder, Coppola told him he was \u201con the road,\u201d an underworld phrase that meant he was actively assigned to a murder. He said Coppola also showed him the gun he was carrying.<\/p>\n<p>After Barberio was killed, Ricciardi said, two other mobsters told him Coppola was the hit man.<\/p>\n<p>Prosecutors argued that the slaying and Coppola\u2019s willingness to discuss his \u201cwork\u201d with Ricciardi should be admitted because it demonstrates a pattern of criminality and demonstrated Coppola\u2019s relationship with Ricciardi.<\/p>\n<p>A federal judge, however, responding to a motion filed by Coppola\u2019s lawyer, has barred any testimony about the Barberio hit, ruling that it might unduly prejudice the jury.<\/p>\n<p>It was also Ricciardi who told authorities that Coppola, along with Fiumara and several others, comprised the Genovese hit team known as \u201cThe Fist.\u201d He said the group was based in the Downeck section of Newark, a once predominantly Italian American neighborhood where, in the 1980s, several crime families maintained clubhouses.<\/p>\n<p>Coppola spent more than 10 years on the run before he was arrested on the Upper West Side of Manhattan in March 2007. Authorities say he and his wife, using aliases and aided by the Genovese organization, lived in an apartment there and in another in San Francisco during the decade that New Jersey authorities searched for him.<\/p>\n<p>The DNA test, which was administered after he was apprehended, proved inconclusive.<\/p>\n<p>A murder charge against Coppola stemming from the Lardiere killing is still pending in Somerset County.<\/p>\n<p>Coppola and Fiumara remain targets of an ongoing federal investigation into the Ricci murder, which, authorities allege, was carried out by Coppola on Fiumara\u2019s orders.<\/p>\n<p>Source:&nbsp;philly<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Michael Coppola, who goes on trial this week in a racketeering-murder case, was part of a Mafia assassination squad that \u201cperformed murders ordered by the Genovese family administration\u201d in the late 1970s and 1980s<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":238,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Trial for accused Mafia hit man | Mafia Today - Your Source for Mafia &amp;
