About this listen

"Stolen Plates: A True Story of Crime, Cars, and Redemption" is a captivating memoir that takes readers on a journey through the author's childhood in Park Slope, Brooklyn. Growing up with three older siblings and their parents, Larry and Vicky, the author stumbles upon a shocking discovery of stolen DMV registrations. Unbeknownst to them, their father had a connection to Jimmy Burke and the notorious Lucchese Crime Family. As the story unfolds, the author delves into the world of car theft, revealing their father's role in stealing cars and earning for Jimmy Burke. The demand for printing plates becomes a turning point, leading the family to escape to Los Angeles, where they start anew.

In "Stolen Plates," the author vividly recounts their experiences of hiding out in Long Island and the brutal act committed by Tommy Desimone, a member of their father's crew. Narrowly escaping the clutches of danger, the family relocates to Los Angeles, where they find solace and a fresh start. The author shares the journey of their father's garage on the Strip, working on Elvis Presley's Cadillacs, and settling into a new life. However, it is through the discovery of faith in Jesus Christ that the family finds redemption, leading them to live a life of service and embark on a transformative ministry.

As the author reflects on the past in "Stolen Plates," they delve into the lessons learned from the car theft operation and the impact of their escape and relocation. Confronting the shadows of their past becomes inevitable, as they face the consequences and reconnect with Jimmy Burke. Seeking forgiveness becomes a central theme in the book, as the author explores the process of reconciliation with their father's crew, making amends with Jimmy Burke, and finding forgiveness within the family. The journey continues with a focus on moving forward with faith, impacting lives through redemption, and leaving behind a lasting legacy of the stolen plates.
