Small piece of KC Gossip

[JoeCamel]

Without getting to specific on sources and names over the last couple years...was speaking to someone I know who worked directly for some guys out there who’s names I have both have and have not read before and she was telling me that she was worked at a string of retail and convenience stores for what she as a local understood to be LCN...they would take the store for a debt or lien both legally and under the table and then have her run them and put her name on them (LLC) and then bust them out and move on to the next, sometimes retaining the note on the real estate themselves, buying her out for 1 dollar or whatever. A few of the names she told me were like I said some that appear in articles and wikis (10 guys total 8 of which Italian). I guess this went on for a solid two and a half or 3 years before they took a cool down period because she told she told them she didn’t want to do it anymore and they didn’t really want to push the issue because it was good business and she had her own sponsor who is also someone who’s name has popped up a couple times. The whole thing amazed me to hear because although law enforcement caught on it was a well structured and quasi legal racket and there wasn’t much they could really chase without the original lendees cooperating (most of them still gambling and borrowing). She swore up and down there are younger button men that are true blue apparently made in 2015 that were heavily involved. The span of this was From 2017 ending March of this year.
I didn’t ever put much stock into KC remnants but from what I heard she was just one scheme of many similars and you have some younger movers and shakers (made) that are really scooping up commercial real estate this way And she swears up and down that no one knows how deep the rabbit hole goes in 2020. The feds are aware but LCN is low priority so no one wants to put much money into an investigation which is on surface legal activity which is what she says these guys have made a priority in the Bigger rackets (Secondary rackets, the money washing kind) they Hold and they are as a lot of you guys and the feds like to say quietly rebuilding and replenishing the coffers and the ranks. She told me a lot more stuff About street rackets and local political inroads but to me this was most detailed thing she got into. Figured I would share it with aN online message board and maybe get her whacked or something To see how true it is.

Not trolling and not trying to give hope to the guys who pray every night that Small family LCN retakes The cities, just repeating what I heard for the benefit of the message board because I really like this board and the guys on it. Only board I’m a member of anywhere. If anyone in the know can offer any corroboration or has heard the same thing chime in.

I do hear that KC has a lot of younger guys in their late 30’s/early 40’s. I also said in a post a while ago that supposedly they made guys around 2015. I don’t know what it is about KC but there seems to be a decent pool there, meanwhile places like Cleveland and Pittsburgh which have a lot of Italians too are just remnants at this point.

I specifically was told 2015. Apparently the focus is committing these bust outs as lawfully as possible therefore leading to as little scrutiny as possible. I think we will see, (well, actually not see because that’s the point) KC and other remnant families Really head in the direction of growth especially with a high Inflation economy on the horizon. Cash will be worth less, so inroads need to be made into more hard asset type rackets

Who’s the resident KC/St Louis experts on the board? Interesting to hear more local opinions on this

Who told you they made people in 2015?

Load of crapola, who is this person who said they were the clean face, you can PM me and I will know in 15 minutes. They already own 95 % of the conveniance/gas stations/liquor stores in the NE and midtown areas, the facilities in the burbs are either corperate I.e. QT or Arab/Indian owned Express or minute marts. So who are they busting out? They have not made anyone since Willie Sr. passed. Yes there are some young guns running around but there is no one who is a threat to do anything but run their mouths. The Begulia kids is the only one who would maybe handle some business, but hes a nutt job. There is absolutely nothing heavy taking place,, they are making some money but there is no return of the KC family coming to a theater near you.
