Yes, he did. But, as I said, there have been plenty of Philly mob cases that had nothing to do with any murders.

The point being, you don't see that many cases in Detroit because what's left of the mob there is nowhere near as big, active, or diversified as some believe it us. You have a few minor cases here and there but the last significant case (by Detroit standards anyway) was nearly 10 years ago. And the last REALLY significant case was nearly 20 years ago.


That's was my point. All Detroit does is gamble, so the FBI doesn't care. Detroit could have 10 guys or 50 guys, if all they do is gamble, the FBI won't care unless the case falls into their laps. Philly is still killing people, so the FBI still goes after them. Even if all they do is gamble, when a body drops, it gets their attention.
