Monday: RISP Surveillance - Federal Hill Toscan Social Club’s Visitors Include State House Insiders
Sunday, August 14, 2022
Coming Monday --
GoLocal has secured Rhode Island State Police surveillance records tracking the comings and goings at a range of locations, including one of the old-time Federal Hill social clubs — the Toscan Social Club.
The club has been raided for illegal gambling over the years and, as GoLocal exclusively reported last week, the club is linked to the state's criminal case against Dino Guilmette.

Federal Hill — once the home of the New England crime family — is no longer the bastion of Italian restaurants.
Much of its Italian heritage -- and former New England crime boss Raymond Patriarca’s legacy on Federal Hill -- may only be alive at the Toscan Social Club today.
On Monday, GoLocal unveils what the State Police tracked down and how that surveillance ties into the case against Guilmette.
