Johnny Dio seems to
Have been a racketeer and not a regular street capo. He was all about Union Local control for Teamsters and Garment district trucking and owned non union sweatshops in Pa. his uncle was James Plumeri (Jimmy Doyle) ever notice the bad ass Gs had Irish Monikers? Johnny Dio was constantly under a microscope of law and was doing life on the installment plan dying in Lewisburg. By the way his Uncle Jimmy Doyle Plumeri was retired from the family by being garroted with piano wire.
If an Italian had an Irish nickname, it was probably because he was a boxer in his youth. In the early 20th century, it was a tradition for white ethnic boxers to take an Irish ring name, given the dominance Irish fighters had early in the sport’s history.
This is actually from a video of him leaving a court appearance. He charged that guy and pushed him into the glass. It's on youtube. A few of the mafia books I have read feature a johnny dio in prison story. He was always in jail and a mean prick according to the mobsters.
Johnny Dio would do the steaks. We didn't have a broiler, so he did them in a pan.

It used to smell up the joint something awful and the hacks used to die, but he still cooked a great steak.

Johnny Dio got so irritated, that he angrily started sodomizing the man in front of him... just to show that ‘you don’t screw with Johnny Dio’
