Larry Mazza on the Colombo War | The FBI "Grim Reaper" & Why He Flipped

Colombo hitman Larry Mazza sits down with Dom Cicale for the first time — and it's the most raw conversation we've had yet. Mazza was Gregory "Grim Reaper" Scarpa's protégé, on the hits, in the shootouts, and right in the middle of the bloodiest mob war in modern history — only to learn the man who made him a killer was an FBI informant for 30 years. Tonight Larry, Dom (former Bonanno capo), Joe Barone, and Gene Borrello break down the Colombo war, the rules that "only apply when they benefit you," and why both Dom and Larry walked away from a life they once believed in. Straight from the guys who were actually on the street — no internet rumors, no fairy tales. 🔥 SPOTLIGHT MOMENTS • Larry on learning Scarpa was a rat — "man without a flag" • The Colombo war: shootouts, sit-downs, and grenades in pockets • Why the guy now running the Colombos won't meet with Joey Merlino • Carmine Persico and the Joey Gallo strangling • The Mark Wahlberg Scarpa movie — and why they got it wrong • "The rules only apply when they benefit you" • Dom's first body: the George Keo murder, told in full • Why today's mafia is a "shell of itself" — paper bosses & a made rapist • The podcasters vs. the real guys: "We are the talent" This one matters because almost nobody breaks down the Colombo war, the Scarpa betrayal, and the death of the code the way two men who lived it can. 👇 Should Larry come back with Michael Franzese?
