I don't know what it is with these US family lists 80% is way over the retirement age.


What it shows is that at a certain point is is right around the time that feds were hitting all the families with RICO, cases without mercy they stopped inducting new members some completely some still recruited by at a lower rate.

Also, they started going back to their roots and inducting older members.
Your not seeing really any guys in their 20’s being inducted anymore or their 30’s.

Lastly the feds do not have anywhere near the resources they had to develop informants, bring cases etc.

So without have any guys on the inside we don’t know what’s going on.

Think about this if it had not been for Giovanni and his under cover work the boards consensus on the board would they are completely defunct because there has not been any indictments so that means nothing is happening.

What was the last case before Stagno?

The Stagno indictment painted a different picture.
