'Secret' Bronx underworld led to Zottola slaying, lawyer claims
During the trial, Salvatore testified his father collected money from illegal gambling machines at bars, restaurants and “number holes” in the Bronx – and paid Bonanno family boss Vincent “Vinny Gorgeous” Basciano and a Lucchese family mobster protection money as part of the racket.
Mazurek then raised a stipulation entered into evidence that showed an Albanian gangster had taken over one of his gambling machine locations – a move apparently OK’d by Basciano. Prosecutors allege Anthony Zottola hired Bloods leader Bushawn Shelton to murder his father. The Bloods leader met Anthony in the Bronx through another criminal – then zeroed in on the monied Italian family as“The gang was going to do what they were going to do,” Mazurek said of Shelton’s crew. “Shelton’s goal was to do destruction to Anthony’s family.”
Bensing pointed to the reputed communications of Sylvester and Salvatore with both the NYPD and FBI as they were being hunted by would-be assassins for months in 2018. The prosecutor urged jurors to look at the thousands of pages of evidence in the case, none of which shows Sylvester had a beef with anyone else in organized crime.
