At the age of 71 Mario Coco Trova died, imprisoned in the Tolmezzo prison. He was in prison for mafia association

Mario Coco Trova died today at the age of 71 in the Tolmezzo prison for Covid. Klaus Davi makes it known. Mario Coco was in jail for mafia association, extortion and other crimes since 2014, younger brother of Franco Coco Trova, historical undisputed leader of the 'Ndrangheta in Lombardy and currently detained in Rebibbia, where he recently obtained his doctorate in Law.

The Coco Trovatos are related to the De Stefano clan of Reggio Calabria, considered among the most powerful of the 'Ndrangheta, as Carmine De Stefano married Franco Coco Trova's daughter. The name of Mario Coco Trova was obviously linked with that of his brother, a key figure in “Wall Street,” the first major investigation into the infiltration of the 'Ndrangheta in Lombardy. A native of Marcedusa, in the province of Catanzaro, he has long been considered the heir of the life-sentence boss.
