391: Gerry Bianchi – Tales from a Tech Agent, Mob Wars and More

Retired agent 4erry Bianchi reviews several investigations he worked as a technically trained agent in the Philadelphia Division, including surreptitious entries into a mob attorney's law office, Philly mob boss John Stanfa's luncheonette, Philly mob boss Ralph Natale's penthouse apartment and the former Garden State racetrack to install court-authorized electronic surveillance recording devices. Gerry appears in the Netflix documentary Mob War: Philadelphia vs. The Mafia, a three-part series where he discusses how the tech squad contributed to the successful prosecution of organized crime cases. He also shares true stories where he and his tech agents installed cameras and bugs in a judge's chambers in Philadelphia City Hall, in the DRPA Walt Whitman Bridge toll collections counting room, and a prison chapel at the Lewisburg Penitentiary, a case in which I played an undercover cameo role. Gerry served in the FBI for 36 years.
