“Raymond Patriarca Sr. ran the organized crime family for many years out of Providence. The Patriarca family controlled all of New England including Boston. The underboss at the time was Gennaro Angiulo who worked out of the North End in Boston and ran the Angiulo family… He was feared and respected by the criminal element,” said Tom Foley, former head of Massachusetts State Police and one of the first to blow the whistle on the FBI’s handling of Whitey Bulger.
