Frank Abbeli... There's a man who can make you feel like a thousand bucks. Or make you feel like running for your life.
He stood at a gargantuan 6 feet 8 inches and could seem larger the second he opened his mouth. That deep rumbling voice of his could make your blood run ice cold. Intimidating is a word I use loosely. A perfect man for his position. A position that doesn't exist, at least unbeknownst to the law.
During my exiting stint in the great New York City Frank was my boss and mentor. Some would say he took kindly to me. But those some would also end up in the hospital for saying anything about Frank. He had a thing for beatings and handed them out like soup to the homeless. It was almost beautiful watching him work.
I was part of a three man crew running his illegal liquor all across Manhattan. It was easy enough and i felt no guilt, I mean who was it hurting anyway. Turns out more people than I first thought.
