N.Y. man is accused of doing crime family’s South Florida ‘dirty work’

Before Clement Santoro put a gun to a man's head, broke his fingers and bloodied his nose, the accused mob associate had dinner with other members of the Genovese organized crime syndicate at a West Palm Beach restaurant called -- fittingly -- Soprano's, a prosecutor said Monday.

According to state records, the restaurant, named after the HBO television drama about a New Jersey crime family, is owned by Renaldi Ruggiero of Palm Beach Gardens, the man prosecutors say ran South Florida operations for the Genovese family.
