He had an entire floor for his publicity at his publicists’.

His driver on his movies was a Teamster, whose brother-in-law was Mickey Featherstone” (a confessed murderer and enforcer for an Irish Mafia gang).

It's pretty hilarious she cites these as examples of power while reaching out to the mob through her ex-husband who had actual ties to the Mafia. I'm guessing she didn't admit to collecting names of enforcers back before the custody hearing.

And Mickey Featherstone was not even in NY then. He in the witness protection program after his own gang set him up.

Turning informer Featherstone was convicted in March 1986 for the April 1985 murder of Michael Holly, despite being innocent of this particular murder, which was a revenge attack probably carried out by another of the Westies, Billy Bokun. He was shocked at receiving his sentence of 25 years in prison, and concluded that he had been framed by his own gang. Rather than serving his sentence he instead told prosecutors that Bokun had committed the murder, and he became an informant.His wife Sissy co-operated with the District Attorney's office to tape incriminating conversations with gang members, including Bokun. In September 1986, Judge Alvin Schlesinger overturned Featherstone's conviction. His testimony at Coonan's racketeering trial during 1987-8 helped to bring down Coonan's gang.He pleaded guilty to a racketeering charge and received a suspended sentence of five years probation from Judge Robert W. Sweet due to his cooperation with the authorities. He was freed in December 1988 and went into a witness protection program.

Fun Fact: Woody Allen and Paulie Walnuts played baseball together as kids.

I don't find it hilarious, that's why I wrote her name in the title. She is fully admitting her ties there, that seems evident. I'm not going to speculate on why she said what she said but I'm sure her fear didn't lie in just one person, Featherstone but others surrounding him. Connections have nothing to do with loyalty.

The hilarious part is that she is the one with mafia connections, but she is acting like she is in danger.

And since she is one who with one phone call gets names of Mafia protection driven to her, she has to make them up on his side. Having a Teamster driver is standard on movie sets. So she hasn't established anything yet.

It's a giant, giant leap from he has publicists and works with Teamsters to he is going to have me killed.

Especially when she testified her that her ex husband offered to break Woody's legs.

Woody Allen threatened to break his son's legs.

She was obviously afraid and she obviously does have ties, that doesn't mean he doesnt. I dont have time to waste talking to troll.

Where did Woody threaten this? This sounds like Mia's threat twisted around.

I dont have time to waste talking to troll.

Meaning you can't back up your claims.

No, it means I know who you are. You're always an asshole.

The fact that you would automatically take Woody Allen's side is all I really need to know about you. I saw it in an article. I'm done now. Buh-bye
