No help for the families of prisoners, people "totally brain-dead" and violence. Melchiorre Badagliacco explains the state of the art of the Cosa Nostra families operating in the hinterland, who in an important conversation intercepted with Salvatore Baiamonte explained why he had decided for a period to put a stop to his business and active participation within the Misilmeri mafia chessboard. "So I have two children - Badagliacco explained - you see for now someone passes by here and sees us talking to each other and two makes movies, stupid movies you understand ... because I'm not saying that ... I have two children one played football with me, he had reached certain levels because first he took him ... then he ended up in ... after the pandemic started and the movie ended. I stopped because I said now f.. my children, I'm going to screw them.
Baiamonte later explained that, in the event of an arrest, no one would be supported by the mafia family: "If you want to help someone and they split you up (and you make a mistake, ed.)... they leave you in the middle of the sh..."
The boss then shared the opinion that the new mafia no longer had the mentality of the past and that the new recruits had no respect for the older members: «There is no longer that mentality of before.... before there were Christians ca pila... today a ci su chiu (there are no more, ed. ). Here we are all thirty-year-olds and when the fury (madness, ed. ) comes, they come to you... "you have to give me this!". As soon as you say no, they take a gun, point it at our heads and what do we do then?... Why do we reason like this? I have never been used to reasoning like this. Things are reasoned... they become clear. Here there are people who are crazy, people who are crazy, are we joking? People who don't know you, come and get you... "you have to do what I say!" or they say "who the fuck are you with?"».
