Joseph Daniel "J.D" O'Toole (23 July 1960-1998) was an Irish-American criminal, pimp, and manager of Paulie's Revenue Bar in New York City.


Biography[]

O'Toole was born in New York City in 1960. He was an associate of the Sindacco crime family and the manager of Paulie's Revue Bar, named after Sindacco Family Don Paulie Sindacco. O'Toole had an uncle who he claimed was a pedophile. He was arrested, at an unknown time, for statutory rape, even though the girl he slept with was said to be eighteen, and was raped in prison because of that. O'Toole was also suspected by the FBI to be downloading child pornography, but was never arrested for it, though his hard drive had been searched on at least one occasion. O'Toole, having an Irish ancestry, was upset with Paulie Sindacco as he had yet to be "made" due to not being an Italian.

1998[]

O'Toole then began to work for the Leone Family and employed Toni Cipriani, after Cipriani killed some Sindacco mobsters at a construction site, which O'Toole filmed to release later as a snuff film. Cipriani first helped O'Toole by driving his van around Brooklyn to allow O'Toole to get his cut from his prostitutes and then informed him that the NYPD are going to raid his club, allowing Cipriani to rescue Don Salvatore Leone. O'Toole continued to feed Cipriani information, allowing Cipriani to protect a Leone casino and then to destroy the Sindacco run 'Dolls' House casino. Toni again worked for O'Toole, firstly rescuing Salvatore after he was kidnapped from Paulie's Revue Bar and later protecting Salvatore when he personally went to kill the Sindacco mobsters at the club. O'Toole later had Cipriani follow Massimo Torini, a high-ranking member of the Sicilian Mafia, who Salvatore correctly suspected was planning something in the city. Salvatore later decided to 'make' O'Toole and had Cipriani and Mickey Hamfists accompany him to the Autocrusher and Junkyard. Once they arrived O'Toole was shot in the back of the head by Mickey Hamfists. His body was dumped along with the car into the East River. The car was later recovered and O'Toole's body was buried at the cemetery in Manhattan. His epitaph reads "Sleeping with the angels".
