All of these guys are basically on a never-ending movie screen for Big Brother.

Exactly , Sicilians in Sicily put pressure on family members still living in Sicily.



I bet that it turns out to be untrue. They have a case of just a couple of guys doing what seems like the world's dumbest extortion, most of the rest including tying it to Sicily is just hype. I'm wondering if the man they wanted the money off had a previous deal with them, or they just decided to pick him as a victim.

Make fun of the mob all you want, but here lately the joke has been on the government. Most of the recent cases have been very weak, resulting in little time. I suppose refraining from whacking guys left and right has a lot to do with it. Simply shelving guys seems to have its benefits.

Back on the subject of fashion, I'm thinking it's even more frightening that one of these guys could be standing behind you at the grocery store looking super ordinary, and you wouldn't even know it.

With all the stuff going on in the world like counterterrorism, counterintelligence, cyber, public corruption, civil rights, transnational organized crime etc..the FBI is too busy, we will never see a trial again like Pizza Connection or Commission case.

According to Scott Burnstein, 86-year-old Gambino bigwig John (Jackie the Nose) D'Amico met with Sicilian mafia boss Giovan Battista Badalamenti in Palermo in August of this year

Very interesting ! Badalamenti called Cali's death a blow to all in his network, saying "his death cut off all our legs",

What I find really amazing is that this great big fugitive, Giovan Battista Badalamenti, has no photos anywhere from what I can find. Yet you can easily find photos of the less important figures.
