Angelo Davis, portrayed by Malcolm Barrett, is a minor character in The Sopranos.
History[]
Angelo is a low-level drug dealer who, along with his sister and her young daughter, squats in a row of decrepit suburban houses that have since become crack dens.
When Tony Soprano drives his son A.J. out to the neighborhood to show him the houses he plans to purchase and use for his HUD scam, Angelo notices Tony parking across the street while he talks. He approaches their car and after asking if Tony is a cop, he tries to sell him some crack. When Tony declines and says that he and A.J. are just sightseeing, Angelo and his sister tell them to leave if they're not buying. Tony further escalates the situation by joking about their crass attitude and asking if Angelo's sister "blows her father with that mouth", causing Angelo to threaten Tony by showing him the gun in his waistband. Tony drives off before things get too heated, just as A.J. marvels at his first encounter with a crack ho. Angelo's sister throws a bottle after the car while Angelo tells her to calm down.
Since the Davis siblings are squatting on the land Tony intends to buy, he asks corrupt assembyman Ronald Zellman to clear them out. He in turn tasks the middleman in the fraud, his friend Maurice Tiffen, with getting rid of the squatters, which he does by hiring a group of teenagers to break in and scare the pair by shooting into the ceiling. The teens end up going overboard and attack Angelo when he threaten them at gunpoint, taking his pistol and firing a shot at him, which ricochets and hits Angelo in the crotch. The group laughs as he doubles over in pain and his sister falls down trying to help him up, spitting on the siblings and telling them to move out as they leave in a SUV. As Angelo, his sister, and her daughter stumble out of the house, a wino outside remarks that "crack is some bad shit".
