British journalist Clare Longrigg researched & published a book on the role women play in the mafia before going on to her work on Provenzano. The earlier book, straight forwardly titled "Mafia Women", details not only the type of lives women like Karen Hill, Brenda Colluci & Linda Milito led, but also delving into the then new growing trend of women in Italy taking over from their jailed men, a situation that is now more or less common place amongst the South Italian criminal groups. The camorra led the trend, with the majority of early cases of female gangsterism rising from Campania. & decades prior to its global proliferation, Longrigg examined the Ndrangheta from the perspectives of their women; & even during a time of rampant "blood fueds"/gang wars in Calabria, she was able to draw attention towards its future potential. Most importantly, she explains very well the role true mafia women play in grooming the children in their future roles, a practice especially prevelant & important in Calabrian Ndrine, which are known for revolving around a nucleus of blood relations. Something from the book that jumped out at me were the stories of young vital law abiding men in their ealy 20's being one day approached by a spinster aunt draped in black, informing him that with the recent death of a distant cousin he'd met maybe once or twice in his life, & being the next male of age, it fell to him to take up the family's part in some ancient bloodfued to restore its honour. Apparantly this shit still happens, or was in the nineties at least. There was another instance of a mother constantly berating & belittling her son for years because he had failed to take revenge on those that had killed a brother/father/uncle, finally driving him to murder & a life sentace before she could be satisfied. http://www.clarelongrigg.com/mafia_women.php

Speaking of Mafia wives.... Robbers clip wrong victim: Wife of reputed Philly mobster By DAFNEY TALES Philadelphia Daily News THREE ARMED ROBBERS didn't know what they were getting into Dec. 21 when they held up a South Philly hair salon and took jewelry from the owner, who happens to be the wife of a reputed mob figure, police say. The Louisville, Ky., trio, visiting relatives in Darby for the holidays, went on a robbery spree for several days, knocking off businesses in South Philadelphia and Darby, cops said. They made a killing in spoils, which included the engagement and wedding rings of Terri Staino, 38, wife of reputed Philly mobster Anthony Staino. Police say that the bandits would have gotten away with the crimes, and possibly more, if they hadn't been caught driving the wrong way on a one-way street an hour after they held up Staino at John Anthony Hair Styling for Men, at 10th and Tasker streets. "It was a good job by the police," said Detective John Komorowski, of East Detectives, where the suspects were detained. "They were up here for a couple of days robbing, right before the holiday, but we recovered stolen belongings from two robberies." "It was a horrible thing that happened to her," said Gregory Pagano, Terri Staino's attorney, when reached at his office yesterday. "She was an innocent victim." Terri Staino declined to comment last night. The episode began shortly after Staino arrived at her salon earlier than usual, about 9:15 a.m., police spokeswoman Christine O'Brien said. She was alone inside and the door was still locked, when two men knocked on the door and asked to get haircuts, O'Brien said. "She figured because of the holiday season they wanted haircuts, so she opens the door and offers them coffee," O'Brien said of Staino. Staino went to the back of the salon, and one of the men followed. Pointing a gun at her face, he ordered her to take off her necklace, engagement ring and wedding ring, police said. Meanwhile, an armed accomplice stole a laptop, Staino's checkbook and hair supplies before the men fled on foot, police said. An hour later in North Philly, 24th District cops spotted a silver Honda with Kentucky tags going the wrong way on Water Street near Somerset, Komorowski said. When police approached the car, they spotted a gun between the feet of the front passenger and arrested the three men, Komorowski said. Investigators later realized that the trio fit the descriptions of suspects in the Staino robbery. Later, cops searched the car and recovered four guns, Staino's stolen belongings and an item from another alleged robbery in South Philly two days earlier, Komorowski said. The trio, who police identified as Tran Phuong, 36, Phuc Nguyen, 18, and Chau Tron, 21, face gun and robbery charges, as well as charges of recklessly endangering another person, criminal conspiracy, terroristic threats and other offenses. Philadelphia Police and other law-enforcement agencies are looking into at least three other robberies that may involve the men, police said. Anthony Staino, 55, is known to authorities as a longtime associate of the Ligambi crime organization. He's never been charged with a crime but is considered the No. 2 man in the South Philadelphia mob, according to news reports. Anthony and Terri Staino - who, according to online records, have residences in South Philadelphia and Gloucester County - were married in September and reportedly had an extravagant wedding reception at the Curtis Center. Among the 300 guests was Anthony's uncle, reputed Philadelphia mob figure Ralph "Junior" Staino Jr., 78. Also on hand were Philadelphia cops and FBI agents, who snapped photos of guests as they arrived. Federal authorities subpoenaed the wedding photos. http://www.philly.com/philly/news/112591314.html

hey guys i presented this topic a while back and we seemed to get way off topic and its cause of the way i originally worded it. my question is in your opinoins do you think a mobster is more likely to marry 1) a woman who is loves money and does not care where it comes from. She dosent ask where the $ comes from as long as it keeps coming in and she has the big house, cars and alot of lavish things OR 2) a girl who grew up in or around the life. Some1 who grew up in a mob area or possibly the relative of a wiseguy. She dosent think much of her husbands career cause it is a normal and acceptable life where she is from??
Obviously there is probably both these type of women out there in the life but just want your opinoins on what type of wife is probably more common in the life?? And i mean in the prsent time not 50 years ago.THANKS

John gotti's daughter married a wiseguy
He wasn't a wiseguy when she married him, just a small time criminal from the neighborhood. But to her, that was probably normal.

Victoria Gotti used to be some looker back in the '90s. Now she looks like she's eighty. Yeah, she's pretty tough to look at today. But to be fair, aside from having a nightmare personal life (her husband, father, brother, et al.), she's had a heart condition all her life. It's aged her quite prematurely. She's still only in her 40s, but you're right, Vinny. She looks MUCH older.

Yeah I have heard she used to throw her father's name around. JG seems to have encouraged that, because I can remember seeing on youtube a recorded visit she had with him where he was advising her to use his name when dealing with some problem her boys were having at school.
I have little respect for this woman as well. The way she rationalizes things bothers the fuck out of me.
Angel used to comment like crazy on the NY Daily News boards. I don't know how many times I told her to suck my balls. We did squash the beef though.

The way he talked to his ten year old grandson was disgusting. THE KID WAS TEN!!! Said he wanted to be a basketball player and John lost it. I don't have a high oppinion about John Gotti, but I really think he was right here. If you've seen his grandchildren on television, you know what I'm talking about. I've seen the show, but they weren't ten then. You don't abuse ten year old kids..well not unless you're a cocksucker.

Another mafia hottie was Louie HaHa's wife, Erica. She of course looks terrible today, but there's a good reason for that. You see this woman never worked a day in her life. Louie gave her everything, a house, cars, jewelery, you name it, Louie provided like a motherfucker. But Louie also did one other thing. He got little miss thing to sign a prenup and when Louie divorced her she didn't get diddly. It was a nasty divorce and Louie is supposed to have said "I hope to see you pushing a shopping cart in the street HAHA". I don't know how much money Louie has, but he seems to have done very well for himself. He's still in prison though, but he'll be out in about six or seven years. If he lives. He probably will.
As for Erica, she was ordered to pay Louie's matrimonial legal bills and had to go on welfare. They don't call him Louie HaHa for nothing.

Frank Rosenthal wife/Spilotro's mistress was even hotter than Sharon Stone who played her in the movie.
How dare you compare that slut to Sharon Stone. Put on your glasses and look at this animal. Vinny, give the teenage hormones a rest and stop with the fantasies already. Also, don't post any nude pictures in the future. - SC
