Mafia soldier AL LaRocca sponsored Maranghi's membership into the San Francisco mafia organization in 1982. Maranghi owned and operated a small pizza place called the Anchor Bay Cafe until selling it to Vince Iacolino in October 1983. On December 14, 1988, he was arrested for being a ring leader in a large cocaine dealing operation at the Portifino Cafe in North Beach. He was convicted and sentenced to three years in the California State Prison. Maranghi was released on parole in July 1990. His next meeting with the law came in October 1991. This time he decided to become a government informant instead of facing a very long prison sentence for selling 22 pounds of cocaine to an undercover cop. He enabled the FBI to arrest 13 underworld figures. Although Maranghi repeatedly been offered status in the government's Witness Protection Program, which would have meant a steady paycheck from Law Enforcement, he didn't like the idea of spending the rest of his life in hiding. Maranghi spent two years in Italy before moving back to the Bay Area.
