Unlike most other crew members, both twins are still alive today. After killing their close friends Chris Rosenberg and Danny Grillo, killing their longtime mentor Roy was just another day at the office. The twins both put a bullet behind one of Royâ€™s ears in a symbolic gesture. Ultimately Paul gave the job to the only men crazy enough to do it, Royâ€™s boss Nino Gaggi and the Gemini Twins. John Gottiâ€™s brother Gene was caught on a wiretap saying John refused the job because it was far too dangerous. Everyone declined, trying to kill a psychopath like Roy DeMeo was something no one was crazy enough to do. Big Paul asked many people to do the hit, including John Gotti.

When Roy got in heavy legal trouble in the early 1980â€™s, Gambino family boss Paul Castellano decided he must be killed. They also killed their close friend Danny Grillo on orders from Roy. But when Chris was to be killed, the twins did not hesitate to comply. They were merely two street hoods when Chris found them and took them under his wing much like Roy did for him. They often ate meals while the draining process was occurring.Ĭhris was their mentor and the one who brought them into the DeMeo Crew and taught them the tricks of the trade when it came to making money. The dead body would then be dragged into the bathtub where they would hang the body upside down and let the blood drain for an hour before cutting it up. The victim would be lured in under the pretense of some kind of business deal and then quickly shot. The crew pulled this off more than a hundred times in the apartment behind the Gemini. Roy trained the twins in his art of dismemberment which originated from his time as a butcherâ€™s apprentice. Joey and Anthony were the guys that Roy tasked with the disposals and he even provided them with knife kits for maximum efficiency. The twins had no qualms about killing anybody, nor did they mind dismembering the bodies afterwards. Later on when Roy took over a local bar and renamed it the Gemini Lounge, Joey and Anthony became known as the Gemini Twins. Joey and Anthony had been best friends since early childhood and were always together. It was the only time in the more than 200 murders that he participated in that DeMeo expressed any kind of hesitance, remorse and grief.Īlthough Chris Rosenberg was Royâ€™s original favorite, it was Joey Testa and Anthony Senter who killed the most people during their time in the DeMeo Crew. Anthony then came in and finished Chris off with two more shots.

It was DeMeo who fired the first shot into his Rosenbergâ€™s head but when Chris didnâ€™t die, Roy actually froze and couldnâ€™t finish the job. On May 11, 1979, he was shot to death by his best friends Roy DeMeo and Anthony Senter. Roy was then ordered by his Gambino bosses Paul Castellano and Nino Gaggi to kill Chris. DeMeo became so scared that he killed an 18 year old door to door vacuum cleaner salesman, mistaking him for a Cuban hitman. During the deal, he had used Royâ€™s last name and the Cubans were ready to wage war. He had ripped off and murdered some Cuban cocaine dealers. In 1979, Rosenberg found himself in big trouble. Chris even introduced himself to people as â€œChris DeMeoâ€. The twins looked up to Rosenberg like a big brother and Roy thought of hi as a son. Rosenberg had his own following and recruited several crew members, including the Gemini Twins Joey Testa and Anthony Senter. Chris was Royâ€™s go to guy when he needed someone hurt or killed.īesides his murdering prowess, Chris was also a big earner who brought in lots of money from narcotics trafficking and stolen cars. His viciousness earned him the top spot in Royâ€™s crew. He maniacally stabbed Katz dozens of times and the decapitated him before putting his head in a cardboard compactor.

When the DeMeo Crew committed their first murder of Andrei Katz, Rosenberg displayed a savagery that surprised everyone. He soon became the top young up and coming gangster in the Canarsie section of Brooklyn in the early 1970â€™s. Roy was already a mafia connected man at the time, and this gave young Chris a tremendous boost in his local reputation. Chris was just a 13 year old kid who sold weed when Roy found him and took him under his wing. Who were these men and what happened to them? Are any DeMeo Crew members still alive today?
