Christmas Roid Rage

[IroNat]

He didn't take receiving a calf machine from Santa very well.

Best Christmas present for the local inmates

[Fortress]

They must have bought him a Toblerone instead of Trenbolone...

Looks like shit, but, yes, VERY strong. Of course, now that he’s gonna be “away” for a while, the rivers of gear will no longer be flowing through his system.

Can you imagine those arms off the sauce?

[FitnessFrenzy]

Outer pecs and front delts look like they went thru a cheese grater

I hope this lack  of aesthetics adds years to his prison sentence.

Strong but doesn't look good at all

550 bench, 715 dead. Good lifts. Loaded parents running successful businesses and he was a personal trainer at 29? So he shoots them? Beyond dumb. His life is pretty much over now.

Not to be discriminatory or anything, but I'm getting a whiff of the Mob from Dad - what do others think..?

Not necessarily although possible. Any Brooklyn or Long Island “Italian” couple could look exactly like that. And lots are prosperous in a completely legitimate way.

Hmm, let's look for clues...

1) Dad's name is "Rocco"...check.
2) Mother's name is "Vincensa"...check.
3) Son's name is "Dino"...check.
4) Last name is "Thomassetta"...check.
5) Father's business in Brooklyn is called "Empire Transit Mix, Inc."...check.
6) $3.5 million dollar house on Longa-Island...check.
7) Neighbors seem scared to say anything negative about the "family" or the son...check.

Yep, I'd say Mob definitely.

Yes of course - that's exactly why I bracketed my comments hoping I wasn't being a bigot.  Lot's of Italian/Italian American Bros on here I don't want to offend, after all...

Then again, that forensic analysis by IroNat would appear to very strongly indicate we are on the right track with this...

Boom!

[Straw Man]

This guy is clearly a fuck up

Damn

The suspect's 65-year-old father was shot in the back and 64-year-old mother in the head, officials said.

"Both victims were conscious and alert and were transported in a Nassau County Police Ambulance to a local hospital for treatment," according to a police statement.

Well, “Empire Transit Mix” does sound a bit weird.

[BB]

The mob connection is there, although not for this shooting -

https://www.nytimes.com/2006/07/21/nyregion/21rebuild.html . Also if you're curious, look up "Laquila Construction", it's another arm of the family's business. Empire Transit Mix isn't like a bus company or similar, it's a concrete company dealing in large public works.

Also there are 3 Dino's in the story - Grandpa Dino that started the companies. Dino Jr, an uncle, and finally little Dino, the family shooter.

Great read - thanks as always BB!

Unions, single tiny office for about 7 companies, kickbacks to the Gambino/Colombo families, barred by Rudy Giuliani for no clear reason - sounds legit

[Taffin]

Hahahhaa - I didn't think of that when they mentioned concrete - I thought of that thing were people say they bury bodies in bridge foundations and flyovers, etc.

Interesting. Not a healthy environment. What goes around comes around. Disintegration sets in. We saw it in Goodfellows and in Casino, two great movies.
