There is no grandstanding with Dominick, he is just a straight up multi faceted diamond that was a product of his environment.

Yeah what IDIOTS they just post even without the correct info.remember going to the beach in the summer? They went to grandma's house!!

[@tommypatchell3342]

I read murder machine its basically what Dom experienced in his life. I watched something on him,that crew he was in they had an ARSENAL of weapons!! He said the crew had a flipping rocket launcher.m60s maddone!!!

[@tommypatchell3342]

NOBODY not even gotti was terrified with the Brooklyn crew..gotti had to wait for key members to get clipped especially Roy demeo before he made his play for boss be cause the Brooklyn crew WOULD NEVER go for castellano being hit.gotti bided his time then made his play for boss.everyone in the Gambinos were afraid of the demo/gaggi crew one more thing with castellano out of the way there was no fear of being clipped for dealing drugs especially heroin anymore.castellano hated drugs!

[@jaxj9813]

He died ? damn I use to wAtch a documentary with him in it about how when he was I. California and just got out of the military and went and seen the god father he knew then he had to go back to new York ..classic line in a documentary.

[@brians7901]

It's not that he was never in Vietnam or in the Army. It's that he was not a green beret.

When you see dominick in a mob documentary you just know it’s going to be a good one, the first time I watched loyalty & betrayal I was completely drawn to everything he had to say, he was a brilliant storyteller, RIP Dominick

Cool you released this on yt. Bought it a while back. Very good. Hope it goes viral. 🤘🏻

[@pauljt3736]

I have loved all of the shorts and the longer clips and have been waiting for this moment 💯🙏👍

[@mosesrocco6614]

I think he said a quite a few 'questionable' things. I suppose that's to be expected sometimes. Especially when he was talking about things occuring a long time previously. Unlike some in similar positions as Dom, I don't get the vibe that he was purposefully straight lying but then again that's just a feeling.

[@borisbogicevic]

Dominick Montiglio's story hits me like no other. I've listened to many testimonies from former criminals, but none have resonated with me as deeply as his. When he speaks, you can feel the weight of his pain and regret in every word. It's almost unbearable to hear sometimes, especially when he talks about his dreams and the haunting visions of his past. His journey from a vibrant young person with so much potential in music and sports to someone ensnared by darkness and crime is heartbreaking. His story isn't just about the consequences of his actions; it's about the profound struggle with evil and the devastating impact it had on his life. What strikes me most is his honesty and raw emotion. In his interviews, he doesn't sugarcoat his mistakes or the depths of despair he experienced. His dream about Roy DeMeo calling him to hell is chilling-it's a stark reminder of the spiritual and moral battles he faced. Listening to Dominick's testimony isn't just about hearing a cautionary tale; it's about witnessing a soul grappling with redemption and the aftermath of bad choices. It reminds me of the importance of resilience and the power of personal transformation. His story serves as a poignant reminder for me to choose a path of goodness and resilience in the face of temptation and darkness.

THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST VIDEOS ON THE MAFIA EVER MADE.

[@bayviewbud1539]

Check out Inside the american mob by nat geo, its a five part series, the best ever done in my opinion

[@shamsdolatabadi3838]

He's saying the truth; however, Vinny Mook wasn't looking to kill him nor Nino Gaggi. That was a real mistake and/or sin. When Vinny got blown up but survived, that should have been payback enough, especially after seeing The Godfather because Don Corleone wouldn't even kill those guys that raped the daughter of Amerigo Bonasera. I only bring up the movie because so many mobsters have praised the film and stated that it was a good reflection of "The Life." I don't blame RIP🪦 Dominick, like the retired detective said, Dominick could have been killed for refusing. I blame Roy and especially Nino. Killing Vinny (after blowing him up) was so unfair, and it was bad Karma. We all know what happened to Roy DeMeo, and Nino Gaggi died of a heart attack at age 62. This is an excellent documentary film, and perhaps it will become a movie in the future. The script writes itself. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 In fact, the movie could open with Dominick having that recurring nightmare about Roy and other members of the Gemini Lounge asking him to come with them to Hell. That's a hair-raising nightmare that brings goosebumps.
