Calabrianwatch and Motorfab; thank you for sharing all this info. Being Australian, I mainly focus on the Calabrians innAustralia. If there’s anything you guys come across or know regarding Australia, please share with me. For what it’s worth, if you guys were to share information that works it’s way into my Aussie Mafia Blog, I will make it clear and credit you guys for helping me, because there’s too much non-acknowledgment going on on the mafia forums.

Nothing for nothing, but Anna Sergi is a personal hero of mine, and WORD; she is drop dead gorgeous. My wife understands that would be my one and only pass.

Ricardo Barbaro had been a fugitive since his girlfriend, Ellie Price was found dead in her Melbourne townhouse 10 days ago.


The manhunt finally came to an end early Thursday morning when he was arrested in western Sydney. The police said they received a call around 11 pm on Wednesday regarding a man in the town of Wentworth City who was ‘wanted on an interstate warrant for murder’.

Barbaro initially resisted arrest but eventually, police were able to get him into custody. He was taken to Concord Hospital in Sydney for minor injuries he sustained during the arrest and was then transported to Burwood Police Station where he was booked for murder.

The Victoria Police stated that at this time, they are not looking for anyone else in connection with Ms. Price’s murder. Barbaro is expected to be extradited to Melbourne where the crime took place.

A statement from the police said ‘’Victoria Police would like to thank members of the public across Australia for their assistance.’

This has been an extremely difficult time for Ms. Price’s family. Just on Tuesday Rebecca Lehner, Ms. Price’s cousin, raised over $3,700 to repatriate the body to the southern Australian island of Tasmania, where she will be laid to rest.

Ms. Lehner wrote, ‘’Ellie was living in Melbourne pursuing her dreams, but her heart was in Tasmania with her friends and family. This is a terrible and tragic event that should never have happened and now here I am trying to raise funds to ensure my cousin makes her way back home and is laid to rest surrounded by the people who love her.’

Ms. Price had a 4-year-old son named Mostafa who currently lives with his grandmother, Tracey Gangell, near Hobart. Another GoFundMe page has been set up by Matthew Barr, who grew up with Ms. Gangell, to try and raise $10,000 for a trust fund for Mostafa.

On the GoFundMe page, Mr. Barr wrote ‘Tracey is a beautiful person, she is totally devastated on not only the loss of her daughter but the heartless murder that has taken place, it’s just unimaginable. I just wish I could take away Tracey and her whole family’s pain – my heart breaks for you all during this tragic time. Ellie was a kind soul whose life was cut short in a senseless act’.

According to police, Ms. Price was violently assaulted around April 28 or 29 and had been dead for around 5 days before her body was found.

Ms. Price was in an on-again-off-again relationship with Barbaro since October 2019, and he had not been seen since her body was discovered.

This morning there was a brief court hearing at Parramatta where Barbaro was represented by Gold Coast Lawyer Campbell MacCallum who phoned in for the hearing.

Mr. MacCallum is well known for being a gym rat, wearing flashy jewelry and brightly colored suits, and for his love of gangster rap.

In a brief media statement, MacCallum said: “I have only had the opportunity to speak with Ricardo on the phone and I have yet to see the specifics of the police allegations”.

MacCallum did confirm that Barbaro will face murder charges in Melbourne Magistrates Court on May 16.

33-year-old Barbaro comes from a notorious family with well documented and well-known ties to the infamous Calabrian mafia, the ‘Ndrangheta, based in the New South Wales town of Griffith.

His brother, Pasquale Timothy Barbaro, was shot and killed in a 2016 mob hit.

Yet another brother, Harley Barbaro, is a known member of the Villains Gang based on Australia’s Gold Coast.

Not sure if this is where i should post this here or in another thread, as it’s only tangentially related to the ‘Ndrangheta. But in any case, the Barbaro family is far flung and ubiquitous in the Australian scene. In Australia, a Barbaro has been murdered every decade since the 1990, and are regularly in the news.

You're welcome Mickey. You're definitely far more aware than me regarding the mafia news in Australia, but when I come across something I post it there. There is a problem for non-oz people : almost all the Aussie news sites got a paywall, so it's quite pain in the ass to dig info.

And yeah as you said the Barbaros and the Sergis are definitely the biggest there. For the few things I manage to catch, I find all these relationships very interesting

I know right? It’s weird and stupidly hilarious. All I can think is that in Australia, it’s common for biker affiliates to convert to Islam, as there is already a massive presence of BFL members, and many of the other outlaw motorcycle groups, like the Mongols, Comoncheros, etc, who have a big Middle Eastern demographic these days. In jail, it’s especially common. Being that she’s the type to date gangsters, it’s likely the baby daddy was a Muslim. Barbaro was not the kids dad. Which is funny, considering how prolifically the Barbaros breed.

Only about halfway through but it's very interesting. Talks about the structure and rituals along with the codes of the Ndrangheta.

That's easily explained by Musitano, Luppino, and Papalia families all coming from Calabria with Ndrangheta roots but later becoming Buffalo members.

Further, if Musitano was in fact made into Buffalo can it be viewed that the ok was given by Buffalo to hit him? Part payback for not getting permission for Papalia or Barillaro? Two factions within the Buffalo family with no Calabrian say?
