The actor, who is best known for his portrayal in the drama series, faces three years of imprisonement after he pleaded guilty of a extortion for enlisting an associate of Gambino crime family named Joseph Orlando. Borgese requested Orlando to collect $5,000 for him. According to investigations, Orlando got rid of the people involved who had a broken jaw and ribs after collecting the money from them. Borgese admitted that he had no idea that someone would get brutally attacked on the mentioned incident.

With his plead, Borgese’ original sentence was made lighter to house arrest and another two years of probation. He also has to complete sessions with youth groups as spokesperson to talk about the dangers of the life of a mob. Recently, Borgese already filmed a campaign about the said issue.

In an interview, the Sopranos star said that most of his roles portray a tough guy or a member of a gangster but he never wanted teenagers to idolize his character portrayals. He added that teenagers should not think that they become wise or are treated smart by breaking laws.

According to Attorney Evan Norris, what Borgese did was unsual; pleading guilty and turning his back against his mob life.

The 72 year old actor is known for his stage name as Tony Darrow who is famous for his mob role portrayals in movies like “Goodfellas”, “Analyze This”, and the decent documentary “Soprano State: New Jersey’s Culture of Corruption”.

While speaking with news men, the star warned that she has not gotten any word yet from David Chase about the making of the film but she is still hopeful.

She added that whenever her group is up to something, she is usually the last to know revealing that she typically learns of such developments from her mum.

She was quoted as saying, “No news has come to me yet. You see, any thing can happen”.

Falco had acted the part of Carmela Soprano, the wife of Tony (acted by Gandolfini) for a total of six seasons. Carmel had a tough time dealing with her husband’s unlawful, scandalous and vicious life style.

Presently, Falco is the principal character in the popular series, Nurse Jackie aired on Showtime.

Did he take it up? Nope. He has seen a fair share of luck and success and hence could decline. The runaway success of “The Sopranos” resulted in more work and he has now signed on with ABC for “Secret Life of the American Teenager,” He has also made some movie appearances, and will shortly be hosting “Nothing Personal” a feature that will be aired on Investigation Discovery.

“Nothing Personal” analyses the root causes that lead to contract killings with each instalment going deep into a murder and chronicling why and how it occurred. The first episode concerns a mob dispute. Others belong to the domestic problem genre. Schirrip is also a producer for the series of six shows.

According to Schirripa he would not have taken up this offer if it was only a mob story. He does not like playing a nasty guy. And this from someone whose career leapfrogged largely as a result of being part of the team that brought “The Sopranos” to life!

To give him his due though, it seems he is not interested in being type cast as a mob guy. This is why he has accepted roles both small and big that would give him an opportunity to show other facets of his acting skills. This has proved difficult though. People want him to play Bobby ‘Bacala’ [Baccalieri] for eternity. He would rather now turn to crime TV such as “Nothing Personal.”

Schirripa confesses that his audience has changed radically from the days of “Sopranos” to the present day “Real Life of the American Teenager,” which he is thoroughly enjoying. Look at the perks. He is now stopped on the road by teenage girls saying they like his show. Beats fat Italian guys hands down, what?
