| What's so funny? |
LIFE IMITATES ART. Anthony Borgese has famously played gangsters on The Sopranos, Analyze This and a litany of TV shows and movies. But perhaps he is best known as the hapless tavern owner Sonny, in GoodFellas. Remember him. Joe Pesci didn't find him funny. Now, the character actor is slated to plead guilty today to extortion charges in the vicious beating of a man who owed him money, according to the New York Post.The Post says: Borgese was indicted two years ago for the 2004 beating in upstate Monticello, in which several Gambino family enforcers allegedly left the victim with a broken jaw and ribs. On an FBI recording, one of the Gambino heavies is heard saying:
Borgese uses the stage name "Tony Darrow."
COURT DOCS SAY: "So Tony [Borgese] meets them . . . shows them where the house is. They go to the house . . . the guy answers the door . . . they beat the living s--t out of him."
