'Ndrangheta, Piscopisani on his knees: reconstructed the organization chart of the clan
Outlined the hierarchies within the mafia structure based in the hamlet of Vibo Valentia badly hit by the Rimpiazzo operation coordinated by the Dda of Catanzaro

by G. B.




Giovanni Battaglia, brother of Rosario, indicated as organizer of the clan. According to investigators, participating in the Mafia association based in Piscopio are also to be considered:


Giuseppe D'Angelo (aka "Pino Il Biricchino"), Francesco La Bella (aka "Campagna"), Giuseppe Brogna, Domenico D'Angelo ( called "Uncle Wolf", David Angelo (aka "Giotto"), Stefano Farfaglia (aka "Pugnetta"), Sacha Fortuna (aka "Personal"), Nazzareno Galati (aka "Fampulla"), Benito La Bella, Francesco Felice ( aka "Citolla"), Nazzareno Felice (aka "Il Capo") and Pasquale Fiorillo.

These last suspects are accused of having been part of the so-called "Minor Society" of Piscopio, with roles therefore lower than the promoters, but equally important. In particular, Giuseppe D'Angelo would have had the rank of "awl", with logistic / operational tasks.

Francesco La Bella and Giuseppe Brogna would have had the rank of "picciotto" taking an active part in the meetings in which the criminal strategies were decided. Francesco La Bella is also accused of having guarded and concealed the clan's weapons, handing them over to the associates to carry out the fire actions.

Domenico D'Angelo, with the rank of "picciotto", is accused of having taken part in the meetings in which the criminal strategies to be followed in order to combat the Mafia against the Patania clan of Stefanaconi were deceased, participating also in the preliminary stages of the attempted murder against Andrea Patania, finding the car that would have been used for the attack.



Stefano Farfaglia and Angelo David would have held the rank of "picciotto", but they would have been on the verge of receiving the rank of "sgarrista", participating in robberies and damages.


Sacha Fortuna, brother of Davide Fortuna (killed by the Patania clan on the beach of Vibo Marina in July 2012), is instead accused of being affiliated to the Piscopisani clan with the rank of "picciotto" but in the process of receiving the rank of "striker ”, With tasks in drug trafficking and in the procurement, custody and concealment of weapons and ammunition.

Nazzareno Galati, Benito La Bella and Francesco Felice are instead indicated as trusted men of Rosario Fiorillo, alias “Pulcino”, Nazzareno Felice would then have had the task of maintaining relations with the other clans active in the Vibonese, while Pasquale Fiorillo would have made its home available to the associates so that meetings could be held. The disputes cover a time span that goes from the period before 2009 to the present. The Piscopisan clan, as well as in Piscopio, would have operated in Longobardi, Bivona, Vibo Marina, Portosalvo.

The Piscopio clan would have maintained solid alliances with the Bonavota clan of Sant'Onofrio, Tripodi di Portosalvo, Commisso di Siderno, Aquino di Marina of Gioiosa Ionica, Catalano and D'Onofrio allocated to Turin.
