What I meant was the term "transnational" was typically used for people like the Caruana-Contreras or the 'Ndrangheta, whose operations are themselves international.Newyorkempire wrote: ↑Fri Dec 16, 2022 5:43 pmThe Gambino from Sicily had there permission to operate in Philly if I recall correctly

Re: Mazzones pleading guilty
It's weird to me how the mob is such a big deal for prosecutors in a place like Philly. A quick Google search shows that there have been 3500+ murders in Philly in the last ten years, and maybe 1 or 2 mob related. I'm not advocating for these mob guys, but the priorities there seem a little off. Some of these street goons legitimately have 10 or 20 bodies on them but you never hear about it nationally when they get locked up.

You’re preaching to the choir buddy!
Re: Mazzones pleading guilty
In the other cases the shooters tend to be black, so when you hear about it its "gun violence" to the media, not the fault of the person.Mustangsally wrote: ↑Wed Dec 21, 2022 6:28 am It's weird to me how the mob is such a big deal for prosecutors in a place like Philly.

This is "unusual"? It's a routine induction ceremony.NJShore4Life wrote: ↑Tue Dec 20, 2022 5:50 pm https://www.inquirer.com/crime/philadel ... 21215.html
"In the most unusual part of the indictment, prosecutors say Mazzone was caught on tape participating in a 2015 mob initiation ceremony in South Philadelphia in which his brother and four others became made members of the crime family. In the secret session, the initiates were captured pledging to “burn in hell forever if I betray my friends.”

They probably meant that it was unusual to be caught on tape and part of an indictment.UTC wrote: ↑Wed Dec 21, 2022 10:44 amThis is "unusual"? It's a routine induction ceremony.NJShore4Life wrote: ↑Tue Dec 20, 2022 5:50 pm https://www.inquirer.com/crime/philadel ... 21215.html

Re: Mazzones pleading guilty
You got a lot more headlines if you're the government when you can "take down" a mafia member. They don't care if the murders are over with. Taxpayer dollars would 100% be better off used elsewhere and they know that.Mustangsally wrote: ↑Wed Dec 21, 2022 6:28 am It's weird to me how the mob is such a big deal for prosecutors in a place like Philly.

Re: Mazzones pleading guilty
The prosecutors want a high win percentage so they can work for a Proscauer, Omelveny or hang up their own shingle. IF these guys were so smart they would start straight out of law School at Wachtell Lipton at 250K/ yr.

Yes it's a pretty low end legal job, at least on the state level. 9-5 basically, instead of the 80 hour a week shops you're talking about.
