Every Name i have researched for being dead or shelved,etc before and after they were posted.
Also Detroit has members whom they call "Soldiers" and "Lieutenants" who are not Italian, or only on there mothers side.Those i havent even listed on my main post of members.
My list was compiled by many other list,books,internet sites,street knowledge,News articles,archives,etc not just 1 big imaginary list.
I have seen more info to Objectively make me believe that there is well over 30 "Made" Members.
I dont care in all reality how BIG The Partnership is i just research it because of my interest in all that is mafia and because of previously living in the city at one time and all over the NUMEROUS cities that surround DETROIT and of course because my moms is Italian and has lots of storys that originally sparked my interest.


Which ever way you cut it, you are putting your own personal research over FBI estimates. And that's just absurd. Associates is another topic completely and the feds say they have as much as a few hundred. But as far as formally inducted members go, it's likely not above 30 at this point. And the relatively small amount of activity there bares that out.


Mods should mind their own business and leave poster's profile signatures alone.
