Frank (Big Frankie) Cocchiaro – DeCavalcante Caporegime

by The Other Guy

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Frank Cocchiaro was known to authorities as a local racketeer, but it wasn’t until the FBI placed a bug in boss Sam DeCavalcante’s office in early 1964 that they learned his true status.

Big Frankie was a caporegime in the DeCavalcante Family of New Jersey.

After that, Cocchiaro was repeatedly called before the New Jersey State Commission of Investigation, and when he had enough, he took a cigarette break and wasn’t seen again – at least for a short time.
