Re: RE: Re: Buffalo/Ontario Mob Acitivity

Home of Musitano family member has cars torched, garage painted with the word 'rat' https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/hamilton/hamilton-police-fire-garage-rat-1.5653226 Seems a real personal vendetta. Perhaps it really is as simple as Luppino vs. Musitano. Also indicates Avignone is an informant. Prob...

Re: RE: Re: Buffalo/Ontario Mob Acitivity

Papalia is an interesting character, anyone know if it’s true his mother was Sicilian? If so, then he was part Sicilian, part Calabrese?? He was born and died on a historical street Railway, which had legendary bootleggers like Rocco Perri visit, etc. Those type of connections are one of a kind. He...

Re: RE: Re: Buffalo/Ontario Mob Acitivity

I don't know. But we shouldn't fall into the trap of taking a well known member or someone who ran the rackets in an outpost and just slapping the Capo label on him as so often happens on the Internet. As for Montreal there are FBI reports and charts from the 1960s-1980s that list the Montreal Capo...

Re: RE: Re: Buffalo/Ontario Mob Acitivity

Not sure if either of them was a Capo. There is a chart from 1987 that doesn't list either one. Does anyone have official info on this? Pogo Who then was the capo of the Canadian crew? It's quite possible the FBI didn't know. Their intel on the Montreal crew has also been seemingly limited. I guess...

Re: RE: Re: Buffalo/Ontario Mob Acitivity

When the beloved Giacomo Luppino died of natural causes in 1987 at 87 years old, the crass, snarling Johnny Pops took over as capo of the Buffalo mob faction in Hamilton. This was interesting part for me, anyone else agree with Scott on this point of Papalia taking over as Capo for Buffalo upon dea...

Re: Gianni Russo...do we believe this guy?

Watched part of his Vlad interview and there are many discrepencies in time. He claims his great uncle Angelo Russo was a bigtime mafia boss who was hanged in '47 during the purge to eradicate the Mafia. The thing is, that purge happened during the early Mussolini era and post-WW2 the Mafia was maki...

Re: Franzese has some racket

Perhaps we shouldn't be ungrateful for what Franzese is doing. Don't forget that people's interests in a forum such as this is based on the general interest in this subject. MF is a great storyteller and salesman and he's becoming quite popular. If interest in this subject increases thanks to guys l...

Re: RE: Re: Buffalo/Ontario Mob Acitivity

What always is confusing is these writers always mention Ndrangheta when writing about the Musitanos, the Luppino-Violi and Papalia. But over the years it is known that some became LCN members. Then you have the groups that are known Ndrangeta. It gets confusing. As one said it could be Ndranghta t...

From youtube comments on his vlad interview... "Before time existed Eve asked me out behind Adam's back" "I was actually the bullet that killed Kennedy" "I'm the only one who knows Victoria's secret" I don't think anyone believes him Seen it too. He's being mocked left...

There are probably buffers between these hoodlums who are murder for hire and the ones who gave the order.
