Is Pittsburgh alive?

Who cares what law enforcement says? The pigs who aren't on the take are 5 years behind the action.

Do you just say stupid things to get attention or does your brain malfunction on a regular basis?

How is what he is saying stupid? It’s very possible. Look at Youngstown in the 90’s or in buffalo with that sea agent just recently. The smaller cities can have law enforcement corruption, it’s certainly possible. But wait let me guess what your gonna say? “That was a one time thing”. Well guess what, your father knocking up your mother was a one time thing and yet here you are

Moscone is right to an extent. Just because there is not indictments does not mean there isn’t action going on.

Did you even read the recent posts on the thread? We were talking about associate estimates, which nobody is going to have a better idea of than law enforcement.

Then Grouchy comes along and makes some stupid, blanket statement that has more to do with his liberal hate for law enforcement than any actual insight into the topic at hand.

And then here you come not knowing up from down, as usual.

Gambling action? Or action involving an LCN family?

I've said it a million times. Indictments are one of the best signs of the activity of a family, especially over the long term. It's why we saw a lot of mob cases in New York and none in Denver.

That link you posted above is a good example of where some get confused. The case involved some associates, as well as relatives, of past associates. But this isn't a sign there's still a family in Pittsburgh. There's only a single member left there and what weve seen in that city and others is residual activity by remnants of families no longer in existence.

You can’t compare the amount of indictments to any level near New York. There are so many more guys in nyc it makes sense to have tons more indictments. Tbh, the amount of indictments in New York isn’t even that much considering how many members there are there

You can look at the areas where the FBI still recognizes a family in New Jersey, New England, Philadelphia, and Chicago and you'll see there have been significantly more cases there over the past 20 years than in cities like Cleveland, Tampa, Kansas City, or Los Angeles. That's not just a coincidence.

People on these forums have been trying to explain away the significance of indictments for years now. It can't be done. Time has shown that to be the case.

[Moscone65]

That’s the case on the east coast, not so much for Chicago. Why that is, I’ll leave up to you.

[Grouchy Sinatra]

Wiseguy flagged down an active police officer on the street today and verified his information through him, so just concede your arguments now.

There have been plenty of Chicago indictments over the last 20 years.

You really need to do your research before posting.
