The police strikes that the community has been waiting for for a long time are intensifying
A year and a half after Frédérick Silva began collaborating with the police, the revelations of this former hitman in Montreal organized crime, very active for several years, resulted in a first major operation this week.
Important players targeted
According to our information, among the people visited by the police on Wednesday and Thursday, we find Pietro D'Adamo and Vito Salvaggio, whom the police consider to be two important players in the mafia, and the gang leader Jean-Philippe Célestin. The latter was the right arm of Gregory Woolley, murdered in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu on November 17, and was present at his burial at the end of last week. Célestin has several criminal histories. In 2017, he was sentenced to 70 months in prison for gangsterism, conspiracy, possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking, cocaine trafficking and money trafficking conspiracy.
