LOL you’ve got to love Italian pop media when it comes to the mafia abroad.

Everyone is a boss for them!

When Emilio Fusco was arrested over there he was dubbed as a boss by almost all outlets. Same thing with Francesco Palmeri, Enzo Morena, Roberto Settineri, Frank Lupoi, even young buck Calogero Zito.

I guess it’s good for sales and clicks.

We had a discussion about his roots but he was indeed Calabrese

Francesco Del Balso was born on April 13, 1970 in the region of Calabria, Italy. A former lieutenant of the Rizzuto clan, he was for a long time an influential member of the Italian mafia in Montreal.

He always struck me as a major scumbag lol

Is there anyone left?

Extorting nuns pure evil good riddance lol. There will be some champagne tonight in Montreal.

Apparently there's still shooters left or else they wouldn't have gotten him, so of course there's people left, goof.

Desjardins is certainly on many people’s list

It's unbelievable how many lives the war has taken from the 70s till now.

Francesco Del Balso would have fallen into an ambush

In the program Le Bilan with Paul Larocque, Félix Séguin explains that police sources point out that Francesco Del Balso would have fallen into an ambush.

According to him, he would have become a disturbing individual for many fringes of organized crime, including the Hells Angels, to whom he would have approached, particularly Martin Robert and Stéphane Plouffe, two influential members.

Francesco Del Balso would therefore have been drawn into a false meeting by some members of the Hells.

"He could have been sacrificed by the Hells Angels to attract a kind of peace for the future. Since the attempted murder on Rizzuto, it has moved a lot in Montreal, "says Félix Séguin.

"Could we have sacrificed an Italian gangster like Francesco Del Balso to buy peace? For police officers, it's part of the police officers' theories, "completes the journalist.

Thanks he knew it was coming, but I feel sorry for his family though they went already through some shit and now this.

No doubt there are always victims in these things. His kids didn't sign up for this. But how many victims was he responsible for through the years? He lived by the sword, no doubt. I still want to know why the woman was killed though. Was it give up Del Balso or nobody is safe??

Mafioso Francesco Del Balso murdered

Mafia leader Francesco (Chit) Del Balso gunned down in West Island, Montreal

This was Leonardo Rizzuto response that he isn't going anywhere. Now this murder opens up new possibilities and questions.

- If Del Balso was under Martin's protection , will Martin retaliate ? He will look weak if he doesn't
- Did Rizzuto strike a deal with Martin to give him (Del Balso ) up ?
-If Martin can't protect a Mafia defector such as Del Balso then what will become of others like Pietrantonio or Sergio Piccirilli ?
-What will become of the peace deal with Mirarchi ?
-Last but not least, will Desjardins be able to get enough protection by the Spryfield Mob ?

one theory is that the HA sold him out, they probably thought that he wasn’t worth the heat and that he didn’t have Rizzuto’s pull.

smart move by HA imho

Shot dead, Del Balso would have been delivered on pasture by the Hells Angels

The murder contract on his head was payable in cocaine, according to our information

Several police sources indicate that the Hells welcomed the execution of this murder contract, in order to ease tensions and avoid a bloody war within organized crime.

The police witnessed a surprising meeting between Del Balso and the influential Hells Angels Martin Robert on March 29, in the hours following searches of the homes of the two men.

Yes Francesco Del Balso would have been delivered to his enemies by the Hells Angels, the police believe. The murder contract on his head was payable in cocaine, according to information.

Montreal is like the fuckin wild west


Crime boss Martin Robert

Wonder what will happen with the two HAs, Martin and Plouffe.
If they really were part or knew about the hit against Leo Rizzuto…
Will they stay members of the HAs ? Will the Rizzuto want something from them ?
