Eastie mobster faces 15 years for a dead-end career: crime

A reputed Mafia soldier from East Boston could be hit with a long prison term next week when he is sentenced in Suffolk Superior Court for firearms possession and being an armed career criminal.

Nicholas ``Dee Dee'' Gioacchini, 52, was found guilty Friday in connection with a four-month wiretape investigation conducted by the Massachusetts State Police Special Services Section that resulted in the execution of 13 search warrants in Greater Boston and Framingham on Dec. 7, 2000.
