Biography

Richie came from a family who immigrated from Italy and was raised with his brother Vinnie and sister Patty in Brooklyn where he met Bobby Lupo and Gino Felino. As an adult Richie was introduced by his childhood friend Frankie to a local Mob outfit run by Don Vittorio. Richie became encapsulated into the life of gang member where committed multiple crimes such as armed robbery, racketeering, extortion and drug trafficking. Richie later became addicted to crack cocaine as a result of his involvement in drugs.

1991 Brooklyn Crime Spree

On April 12, 1991. Richie received a picture of his girlfriend Roxanne Ford having sex with his childhood rival Bobby Lupo, he ends up shooting Bobby on the sidewalk in front of his wife, children and many other witnesses. Richie then tossed the picture on Bobby's corpse before leaving. Later on, Richie and his henchmen are in their car when a woman driving nearby asks them to move out of her way, prompting Richie to get out and shoot her in the head. Because Richie's crime spree was being publicly associated with the Mob, Don Vittorio puts a contract out on Richie, sending Frankie and a few other associates to find him. Meanwhile, Gino Felino, an NYPD detective and Bobby's former partner, finds Richie while he is recruiting back-up and engages in a high-speed car chase with him that leads to a meat store. Richie orders his back-up to deal with Gino at the store before escaping.

Richie later visited his disabled friend nicknamed 'Chas the Chair', requesting a new vehicle with a scanner in it. Chas questions him about Bobby's murder just as the police arrive. Richie, believing that Chas had sold him out, kills him and then fled the scene. He then sends some of his henchmen to Gino's wife's apartment to kill Gino but they were unsuccessful. Richie went to his brother Vinnie's pool hall and bar and sees that the place has been ransacked. Vinnie told Richie that he has been hassled by both Gino as well as Frankie and the other members of Vittorio's crew. When some of the mobsters return to the bar after hearing that Richie would be there, Richie took them by surprise and killed them with Vinnie's help.

Later that evening, Richie and his men drove to a house to have a party, but an informant of Gino's, named Picolino, saw Richie and informed Gino of his whereabouts. While Richie's men were distracted, Gino snuck into the house and killed them all before confronting Richie in another room. The pair fight but Richie was killed in the altercation when Gino stabbed him through the forehead with a corkscrew.
