Hill stated that after he saw this he was truly convinced that DeSimone was a total [[psychopath]]. It is believed that Gianco's body was subsequently moved, because it was not found in that location. On ''[[The Howard Stern Show]]'', Hill said that Gianco was buried next to [[Robert's Lounge]], which was owned by Burke, along with other bodies.
 
DeSimone's fourth murder, according to Hill, occurred when he and another associate named Stanley Diamond (1922–1991) got carried away after being asked to "rough up" a witness to a robbery. After a truck heist, a foreman had refused to allow Burke to unload the stolen cargo in his warehouse and vehemently protested because they had no [[labor union|union]] cards. Burke attempted to reason with the man, who stood his ground and refused to be intimidated. Burke later sent DeSimone and Diamond to the man's house in rural [[New Jersey]], with instructions to "rough up" the man to ensure he would cooperate with Burke in the future. DeSimone and Diamond, angry and worked up about having to drive all the way to New Jersey, ended up beating the man to death.<ref>{{cite web|website=Murder Incorporated|date=February 13, 2008|title=Stanley Diamond |url=http://toughjews.blogspot.com/}}</ref>
 
DeSimone's fifth murder occurred when Burke ordered the murder of his best friend, Dominick "Remo" Cersani. Burke got suspicious about Cersani and later found out from contacts in a Queens DA's office that he was talking to the [[New York City Police Department|NYPD]], and that they were going to arrest Burke on a truck hijacking charge. DeSimone and Burke met Cersani at Robert's Lounge and said to him, "let's take a ride". DeSimone strangled Cersani with [[piano wire]]. Hill said in ''Wiseguy'': "Remo put up some fight. He kicked and swung and shit all over himself before he died." Burke had Cersani's body buried next to the [[bocce]] court behind Robert's Lounge.
