in Atlantic City real estate and would be described by the New Jersey SCI as a Scarfo mob 'financier'. Both the New Jersey State Police and the FBI set up surveillance of his Seatex office on Atlantic Avenue in Ventnor City, a chemical blending and packaging company that operated around the block, from Scarf Inc. Frank Lentino, a former Teamster who had become a labor organizer for Bartenders Local 54 and Leonetti's conduit for Matthews, introduced him to James Biaco. Lentino and Biaco worked with Matthews to arrange the sale of a city-owned land zoned for casino development. Matthews was offered a hidden interest in the casino development that would follow his approval. Several different locations were used to meet with Matthews, including Shapiro's condominium at the Island House on Atlantic Avenue in Margate, New Jersey. Leonetti met with Matthews and others at Shapiro's condominium at least two different times. On one of those occasions, Leonetti met with Matthews, Shapiro, lawyer Robert Simone and Stanley Branche. Simone was an associate of the Scarfo Family and an attorney who represented Scarfo and Leonetti. Branche was a Philadelphia businessman who was friendly with Simone. Branche was at the meeting to obtain Matthews' support for a grand prix auto race in Atlantic City. Leonetti was there to get Matthews to push for the sale of some city-owned property that Leonetti thought, at the time, might financially benefit him, Scarfo and members and associates of the Scarfo Family. As it turned out, the city-owned property was related to an FBI investigation that later resulted in the conviction of Matthews and Scarfo Family associate Frank Lentino. On another occasion, Leonetti met with Matthews, Shapiro and a Scarfo Family associate named Arthur "Artie" Pelullo. Leonetti arranged for the meeting because he wanted Pelullo to apologize to Matthews for threatening him.

When Pelullo was having trouble getting the license, he threatened to kill Matthews, who contacted Leonetti for help. Leonetti set up a meeting at Shapiro's condominium to settle the matter and made Pelullo apologize to Matthews. Leonetti also met Matthews at the Mars Restaurant, a bar and restaurant owned by Pelullo on South Street in Philadelphia. Voters recalled him in a March 13,
