Who in the fuck would actually think the Detroit family is still active? Maybe I'm wrong but I firmly believe the family is defunct.

And who the fuck are these D'anna brothers? Are they like the Diaz brothers from Scarface?

Two small time hoodlums who run illegal operations of their own? That does not mean the Detroit family is an active family btw.

I guess people out there are desperate to see Detroit having any significant importance still which is pipe dream.

Also let me add, from what I see the Italian restaurants in Detroit fucking suck compared to New York or Chicago. Does Detroit even have a Little Italy section anymore?

To be a living as a mobster in Detroit in 2025 would honestly be rock bottom thats for sure.

Two of their cousins were arrested in the HUGE Palermo bust (181 arrests) in February.

Alfonso D'Anna, born in Terrasini on 28/5/1956
Salvatore D'Anna, born in Terrasini on 17/7/1960

If you don’t know who the D’anna’s are, you shouldn’t say anything else about Detroit.

You’re a stunad of epic proportions!

Detroit isn’t thriving but nowhere is really, including NYC.

Its not like they are a household name, so save the bs for someone else Mr. Ben54.

Also convince the board why Detroit should be taken seriously in 2025?

There is nothing wrong with what the D'Anna brothers are doing as they generate lots of business from Italy and pretty much do business strictly with them.

The one thing that is for sure, is the Detroit Partnership is defunct. All business that is viable when it comes to Detroit is pretty much under control of the D'anna brothers and their crew, whatever that consists of.

Detroit and Terrasini are intertwined since the early years!. Several Detroit guys attended a big shot funeral several years ago.

This got me thinking. I would have to say that Detroit (D'anna's) have a good business relationship with the guys up in Toronto?

Yes or no?

The D'Anna brothers are either the nephews or cousins (I believe cousins) of early Detroit powerhouse Anthony (Tony Cars) D'Anna, who was a top figure serving under Joe Zerilli dating back to the 1930s era. Tony was a highly-respected guy.

I did a piece on him several years ago. Here it is...

In fact, D'Anna is largely credited with having been the one who first secured the pact with Ford Motor Car Company and several other major Detroit auto manufacturers which over the years brought untold millions into the coffers of the Detroit Partnership.

Hence his nickname, "Tony Cars"

Of course. After all, these were the hometown 'seeds' that first spawned so many American mafiosi. not only in Terrasini, Carini and Cinisi, but also in towns and cities all across Sicily for that matter; Trapani, Palermo, Agrigento, Catania, etc. Many of these families and Families go back centuries.

Both in Ndrangheta and Cosa Nostra you can find the same family names going back to even the late 19th century.

I agree. Whether they hail from Campania, Calabria or Sicily, each particular region or province boasts their own unique but respective surnames -- generation after generation after generation -- which are unique to that particular southern region.

Yes, camorrista, ndranhetista and mafiosi view organized crime as a 'generational' "family" business. The word family being used in the truest sense of the word.
