"Either we collect this money like a gentleman or we collect it like a tiger," said 60-year-old Michael "Mikey Red" Nobile. "And sometimes I like to collect it like a tiger." This according to federal wiretap evidence entered in his trial for extortion and conspiracy to commit extortion. Nobile, who New Jersey prosecutors describe as a "former leg-breaker," was allegedly one of three "heavy-duty Italian-looking men" who witnesses reported as violently threatening the manager of Lenny's pizzeria a Warren County pizzeria last summer. The wiretap, which was originally used to convict Nobile of assault ten years ago, also recorded him saying, "I will baseball bat your head!" For some reason, current employees of the pizzeria were reluctant to discuss the matter with newspaper reporters.
