What is the weight of Detroit Mafia?

[Ivan]

C'mon guys, I think he wants a real answer. Let's say there are 20 made members and the average weight is 200 pounds (US). That's a total of 4,000 pounds or 2 tons (1814.37 kg). So the weight of the Detroit Mafia is 2 tons.

200 lbs is very conservative for the Great Lakes region, so I think that’s a reasonable lower limit.

Yeah I was about to say, 200 pounds? Maybe in like 1970.

This is where another thread goes down the toilet from stupid jokes.

You’re only half-right. These are good jokes.

Lol.Great Lakes men are so fats respect the average american?

If you ever go to Chicago just go to Ricobene’s on 26th St and you will understand.

Hey Scott- what about Jackie’s former driver Pete Gotti? Obviously no relation but I remember you saying he is young and could get made

If the Motor City Amici shaved their Elvis sideburns and handlebar mustaches you could subtract another 100 lbs.

Is there any status known on the chair / consig emeritus? Is it still in existence?

OMG! - Too Funny!

Peter "Gotti" Tocco is a 46 year old Detroit mafia associate. His dad is Salvatore "Mops" Tocco, a former member of the Fat Jack Lucido Wolverine Golf Club crew. Gotti Tocco was Jackie's driver for a while. He's a drug guy (allegedly) and married to a Jewish girl from the westside whose grandpa was a Purple Ganger. I don't think there has been any making ceremonies in the last decade.

If there is an "emeritus" now - i dont know if there is or isnt - it's probably Butch Stramaglia.

Hi Scott. Random question. Is Gene Baratta the same Gene Baratta that owns Fairway Packing in the Eastern Market? Baratta doesn't show up very often in articles/trials(never in trials) and I was trying to make sure it's the same guy.

If you’re 12. Maybe.

[jimmyb]

If I recall, Baratta was or is Tony Z's son in law. Scott can verify that.

The colombos have about 5 crews and about 80 made guys.Its so interesting that Detroit only has about 20 made guys but 4 crews.Its like the saying too many chiefs not enough indians.

Also are the actively trying to make new guys or have they gone the way of other families like new Orleans and st louis were they are just going to not grow anymore and eventually wither away?
