Former union head wants separate trial from relatives due to mob connections
He wants some distance from his family — and that family.
A former union president charged with labor racketeering wants to be tried separately from his dad and cousin because the feds plan to link them to the Genovese crime family.
A lawyer for Anthony Fazio Jr. argued yesterday that the “so-called Mafia evidence has nothing to do with my client” and could poison jurors against him.
The judge said she’d decide the issue “very shortly.”
