The sentencing of six members of the crime syndicate has been continued for a third time because of a schedule conflict for the government attorney on the case.

U.S. District Judge James T. Moody rescheduled the sentencing for April 24. The six had been set for sentencing Thursday.

The defendants are Dominick "Tootsie" Palermo of Orland Park, Ill.; Nicholas "Jumbo" Guzzino of Chicago Heights, Ill.; Bernard "Snooky" Morgano of Valparaiso, Sam "Frog" Glorioso of Gary, Peter "Cadillac Pete" Petros, formerly of Gary and LaPorte, and Sam Nuzzo Jr. of Merrillville. All are being held at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Chicago.

The six were convicted in August on racketeering and illegal gambling charges in connection with the collection of a "street tax" from illegal gambling operations in Northwest Indiana.
