The way you scoffed at the possibility of this group having serious political power is what I take issue with. You really don't need much for this to happen. Whitey Bulger was just one guy and his brother was the most powerful politician in the state. All you need is a connection. As long as these groups exist, this is always gonna be a possibility. The ball is gonna land some place. It could be a two faced rat Irish man from Boston or a Compton Crip who's made a fortune as a dope peddler.
I'm scoffing at the idea that DiFronzo's political clout extends to the point where he could be protected from a federal indictment by the US Justice Department. Luciano couldn't keep from being indicted by Dewey in the 1930's but were supposed to believe DiFronzo has that power in the 21st century? Sorry but anyone who believes that is beyond clueless. Or just
wants to believe it. There's just no other way to put it.
There's is one small link though: both the Chicago Outfit and the Mormons tried to extort Howard Hughes. The Outfit failed, but the Mormons succeeded.
I shouldn't even reply to this because it's completely off the subject but many of Hughes' closest associates were Mormon. Get your history right.
