Gangsters' Wives
“Growing up in a large Italian family in 1960s Brooklyn, Andrea Giovino learned from an early age to idolise Mafia guys. As a woman, and a very attractive one at that, she had a succession of relationships with powerful Mafia-connected men including Frank Lino, a ‘capo’ in the Bonanno crime family and Mark Reiter, an associate of the Gambini family, who is currently serving a 260-year prison sentence for narcotics trafficking. During her time as a ‘Mafia wife’ she was involved in loan sharking a...nd money laundering. In 1992, she was arrested on drugs charges and decided to turn police informant. John Fogarty, her boyfriend at the time, and her brother Johnny, both guilty of multiple murders, also agreed to cooperate with police in return for her release. After refusing to join the Witness Protection Program, she moved to Pennsylvania with her children where she lived quietly for many years until her autobiography, Divorced from the Mob (Da Capo Press), turned her into an unlikely champion for women involved in relationships with abusive men.MoreLess
