Riina and Provenzano were both boss of bosses.
So that meant that all the other bosses of the other families reported to them?
No. The sicilians was feared but never tried to rule on the whole oc groups in italy. We can say that every group was a Kung in it territory (camorra in Campany,ndrangheta in Calabria ecc) and the other part of Italy was and are open territory.
Can you tell me more about Carmine Alfieri? I read somewhere that he was the most powerful boss in the Camorra during the 70s/80s.
Alfieri was called ò ntufato (the angry man) because he always had an angry grin on his face, and always seems angry for something.
He was the worst rival of Cutolo because in 1978 when cutolo asked him to joint the NCO and refuse,cutolo killed his brother.
After the NCO defeat become the most powerful camorrista in the vesuviano area,he transformed the rural camorra into an entrepreneurial camorra and it was then that they began to submerge the garbage of the factories of northern Italy in Campania, as well as being an businessman, was also a ruthless camorrista and organized together with bardellino the famous "massacre of the fishermen's club" against the Gionta clan who did 8 deads.
Was arrested in 1992 and flipped and explained his involvement directly and not,in 150 murders and where was buried tons of toxic waste that was killing people with rumors.
In retaliation the other camorristi killed his brother,his son and other parents.
Now Alfieri had alost 76 y and are still under state protection.
