I just haven't seen any evidence that ranieri was killed by the rizzutos. The last I had heard he was their man in Ontario, but was running from the law.

yes, but maybe he betrayed them, i don't know
joe bravo and pimentel were also rizzuto loyalists but they were killed in sicily and the order probably came from vito rizzuto
Bravo and Pimentel were not loyal, the reason for their hit, they were neutral, subscribering to neither Rizzuto or Desjardines

don't forget that the rizzuto are allied with the caruana-cuntrera, they sure have strong connections in south america, they probably carried out the murder of moreno gallo or danny ranieri in mexico

Damn!!! Wasn’t there multiple attempts on this guy from many years back???? Crazy they just now got him...!those guys up there don’t play around when it comes to murder.. and they are patient as fuck.. if they want you dead you’re pretty much fucked... seems like they will wait years til your guard is down, or til it’s just the right time... Vito strikes again from the grave. Would love to see a chart of who’s still full aligned with Vito’s guys, (guessing his son Leonard and the renda kid now) shows they still have allies ready to do work.... doesn’t fully surprise me cause the Rizzutos have those old world Sicilian ties...

I can hardly believe that. I think he knew very well the family wasn't going to forget about it. I can imagine that he actually had enough of this way of life (24/7 security and constantly being on guard) and he choose to accept his fate just going about his business.

I think they do have some kind of WP, but of course it's rarely used. When you can hardly get 15 years for murder, many don't turn. I imagine it came down to money for Magi, he wasn't the straightest one in the world but he was making money and paying for an entourage (still not sure what happened to his so called security he had for years). My only guess is he thought that the Rizzuto's were not going to come after him anymore and it cost him. Either way it's pretty stupid to be tied to Nick Jr's murder and you stay in Canada period. :shock: Look at Moreno Gallo and Joe Bravo, one left the country to stay alive and one stayed out of country by law and used it as an excuse and both were still killed. If he could do that it's hard to say that Magi could have hid anywhere as long as he had ties to Canada.

Don't know actually, but I would guess they can work something out if somebody of importance turns. Perhaps deliver him to the US for witsec.

Don't think so. If I recall correctly, I believe he was suspected along with Joseph Ducarme of having Nick Rizzuto Jr. killed.

Other knowledgeable posters feel free to check me on that.
Magi had hired Joseph Ducarme as a body guard at one point after Nicks murder. I suspect he was marked for death by the Rizzuto faction
It was public knowledge that there was a contract on his head for many years.

If I was him I would've turned states and go into a witness protection program. Why he hasn't done that with little to lose beats me. I'm sure he had lots of insight in what was going on on the streets and behind the scenes. Desjardins will take his secrets and pride with him in the grave as well.

He never was. At best he pretended because he was forced to work with him. As Antimafia once stated, he must have despised this family.
Cheers guys

No worries, Lupara. As I'm getting older, my memory is not as sharp as it once was. Nor is my vision -- I'm sure you and other posters are noticing all the frequent typos I've been making in the last little while, errors I rarely made in the past. I wouldn't be surprised if you, I, or some other poster someday comes across a post in which I did in fact state that Magi despised the Rizzutos. :D
