Re: The Mob and Coronavirus.

If the mob is a struggling, contracting business, will this accelerate their decreasing market share and influence? Their income from vice will surely stagnate as disposable income takes a hit. And who is going to be building skyscrapers in a depression? OR The old moustache pete’s found ways to pr...

Re: GL NEWS 3/19/2020

Wiseguys have been doing home invasions since at least the 1970s. Pistone talks about guys doing in it his book. If memory serves so does Henry Hill. Hell wasn't Joe Masseria arrested for robbing someone's home back in the 1910s? If there is a buck to be made they will do it regardless of who might...

Re: NY Mob and the 1980s Miami?

Im not sure but i think that the US mob was able to grow opium fields near the border in Mexico (there are reports from the 1940s) but growing coca leaves in that same area back in the days was a difficult thing. So by the late 70s the Colombians were already big while in Mexico the first big time ...

Re: RE: Re: The Godmother

Is she as big as the movies depicted?? Or basically another Frank Lucas. It seems she was actually pretty big if she actually went and killed Pablo's guys that were even hiding in Barrio Pablio Escobar I think so. They did a lot more killing and coke was bigger than heroin. I think Frank Lucas is a...

Re: Pleasant Avenue Documentary except w Judge Edwin Torres (Carlito's Way)

Jiggs, would you care to go into E 105 and E 106th st between 1st and 3rd and what was going on at that time? Who was on those streets in those days? (Not directly an OC question.) What time is that? If you mean the 1970s it was a whole different ball game from when I was a kid. PRs took over. Comm...

Re: Gotti to die in Prison

The Daniel Siefert murder was beyond the fucking pale. I don’t think a lot of posters here understand how these people’s mind’s work. I grew up (in England) in a rancid cesspit shit hole of crime and fucking scum and up to your armpits treachery, the lowest of the low that would rob your dead grand...

Re: NY Mob and the 1980s Miami?

Actually Santo Trafficante used to import cocaine from Ecuador and Chile before production moved to Colombia. Furthermore the mafia in the US has been involved in cocaine as far back as the 1930s. I would agree once cocaine production moved to Colombia that Latino oc members began to control supply...
