New Jersey Boss Gets Two Years
Nicholas D’Aloisio, ex-president of the Passaic, N.J., police union,
was sentenced Mar. 25 to a 24 month prison term for being an accessory
to a stabbing. Reputed Genovese crime family associate Stefano Mazzola,
an ex-police officer and ex-U.S. Navy officer, received a 150 month prison
term after pleading guilty to stabbing and beating a debtor inside a sign
shop owned by D’Aloisio. FBI Listening devices planted in the shop recorded
Mazzola in Aug. 1996 taunting the debtor and another associate threatening
to kill him, take one of his eyes, and beat him with a baseball bat. In
an unrelated FBI tape, Mazzola bragged of having pistol-whipped a victim,
saying, “I laid him open like a [expletive] cantaloupe.” D’Aloisio, an
11-year police veteran who was suspended without pay after his 1996 indictment,
resigned from the force in Oct. After his sentencing, D’Aloisio got a kiss
on the cheek from Mazzola. [Record 3/26/99]
