They were doting sports moms who appeared to be living the suburban dream in some of New Jersey’s richest counties — showing off lives of apparent luxury on social media.

But beneath the surface, prosecutors said the wife and ex-wife of purported Lucchese crime family soldier Joseph “Little Joe” Perna were taking cash from a $2 million Mafia-linked illegal online sports betting ring managed by their sons, authorities said.

Perna’s wife, Kim Zito, acted like an open book on Facebook and Instagram, showing off her two small dogs, the homes and apartments she flips, and her frequent nights out on the town with her glammed up, Gucci-bag wielding gal squad.

On X, the 53-year-old follows “Real Housewives of New Jersey” veteran Dina Manzo and President Trump, supports the Second Amendment, and shares both her love for Lifetime movies as well as motivational quotes from the likes of Joel Osteen.

Her socials are also replete with pictures of her now 23-year-old son, Frank, playing football and baseball, or the two hugging inside their granite-countertopped kitchen.

Frank Zito oversaw the sportsbook operation along with Joseph Magno, 25, a former Ramapo High School wrestling standout, and his brother, Anthony Magno, 23, who played football for Bergen Catholic High School, authorities said.

The two are the sons of Joseph Perna’s ex-wife, 52-year-old insurance agent Rosanna Magno.

Kim Zito and Rosanna Magno were both charged with racketeering by federal authorities who claim they played a role in an online sportsbook racket Perna, 55, allegedly financed, according to court papers.

Ex-Rutgers wrestler Michael Cetta, 23 — Rosanna Magno’s nephew — also participated in the operation, prosecutors alleged in court documents, as did cousin Dominic Perna, 23.

Kim Zito and Rosanna both live in large, two-story homes in Fairfield and Oakland, NJ, respectively. Zito’s home’s value is estimated to be approximately, $800,000 and Magno’s has a market value of $700,000.

Unlike Zito, Magno apparently kept a low profile online.

Her sole social media presence can be found on LinkedIn, which lists her as a client services manager at Essex Retirement Services with eight years experience.

“My expertise lies in designing tailored retirement solutions that meet client needs, enhance employee engagement, and ensure regulatory adherence,” her profile proclaims.

Kim Zito allegedly accepted an unspecified amount of illegal gambling cash in November and December of 2023, prosecutors said, while Magno allegedly tried to “conceal what were later determined to be gambling ledgers from police during an investigative stop” in April 2025.

All told, 14 people — including suspects in Florida and Rhode Island — face charges stemming from their involvement with the gambling ring, which operated between 2022 and 2024, authorities said.

The illegal enterprise allegedly included a national network of bookmakers, all operating under Little Joe’s orders, to lure bettors into making illegal bets, which were used to fund the scheme and enrich the defendants. according to court documents.

This isn’t the first time a Lucchese crime family ring was taken down in New Jersey this year. In April, 39 people, including members of the Lucchese crime family, were charged for their alleged roles in a large-scale illegal gambling operation. A sitting Prospect Park councilman was also among the 39.

The Luccheses were also accused of being part of the recent poker-rigging ring that allegedly involved NBA Hall of Famer Chauncey Billups and Miami Heat player Terry Rozier.

Zito and Magno could not be reached for comment, and their attorneys did not return calls from The Post.
