George Remini
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
George V. "Big Georgie" Remini (August 5, 1945) is a New York mobster known as "Fat Georgie" or "Big George" within the Gambino crime family. In 1969, Remini was arrested and pled guilty to possession of stolen property from interstate shipment and was sentenced to 3 years in prison.
A made member of Thomas Gambino's "crew", Remini formerly maintained an interest in the Top Tomato food chain based in Staten Island, but it is unclear whether he plays any role in the store's current operations.
He is not the father of actress Leah Remini.
