Re: Matteo Messina Denaro Arrested
Doesn't look that bad. Looks like a 60ty year old. Nice clothes.
Re: Matteo Messina Denaro Arrested
Now that MMD has been captured, Motisi is the only other Cosa Nostra boss on Europol's list.
Including a watch worth 35,000 euros.
All roads lead to New York.

Re: Matteo Messina Denaro Arrested
We should start having arguments about whether the Sicilian mafia is still viable.

Most interesting parts for me are the references I've seen here and there regarding Denaro's ties with the P2 Masons. You fellas might recall how in Godfather 3 Vincent mentions that the main villain Don Luchesi is involved with P2.
I challenge you guys to write a limerick that either starts or ends with "Matteo Messina Denaro."
There was a man who spent years on the run.
He didn’t do it for fun.
One day he got Ill, so the beans had to spill.
No more caponata and amaro for Matteo Messina Denaro.

Italian politics have had these men for centuries. They are the true Mafia.

It's a new morning in America... fresh, vital. The old cynicism is gone. We have faith in our leaders. We're optimistic as to what becomes of it all. It really boils down to our ability to accept. We don't need pessimism. There are no limits.

I like how the main villains of parts 1 and 3 are only in the movies for a few minutes.
EYYYY ALL YOU CHOOCHES OUT THERE IT'S THE KID
Re: Matteo Messina Denaro Arrested
To be honest i don't think he is alive, with MMD we had several informants talking about his cancer,police uncovered pizzinis that were used by him,there is even a video of him in a car. But with Motisi there is literally nothing , no trace of him ,one informant said "He is alive and hiding in Agrigento".But is it really possible not to leave a single trace with todays technology...

Re: Matteo Messina Denaro Arrested
Well it will always be surrounded with mystery , like with Riina and Provenzano arrest , so much mystery and conspiracy especially with Riina, police investigations never managed to uncover anything.scagghiuni wrote: ↑Tue Jan 17, 2023 4:56 am of course it is, the arrest of MMD was just a masquerade in my opinion, they arrested him to send messages to somebody
Now to the question if sicilian mafia is viable,very much so, i think they are more powerful than they were 10-15 years ago.Recent investigations showed they are trying to rebuild, form a cupola again , people in neighbours turn to mafia for help. Massacres and war on state brought them to their knees.

Re: Matteo Messina Denaro Arrested
I could be wrong but I think he was speaking tongue and cheek. A nod to the laborious discussions on this board about the viability of Buffalo, KC, Detroit, etc. I don’t think he’s actually suggesting the viability of the Sicilian Mafia is up for debate.scagghiuni wrote: ↑Tue Jan 17, 2023 4:56 amof course it is, the arrest of MMD was just a masquerade in my opinion, they arrested him to send messages to somebody

Paolo Borsellino brother Salvatore said:
Before being killed my brother said "when I am killed it will have been the Mafia who killed me, but it will have been others who wanted my death"; today one of the main perpetrators of the massacre in which my brother lost his life is in prison, but unfortunately there are too many mysteries about who wanted Paul's death.What changes today? It changes little, the fact that Messina Denaro has been arrested means that there is someone who replaces him. Not only that, there is the serious suspicion that this arrest is the result, once again, of an unholy negotiation in the face of the concession of points from Riina's papello.

I don't know what he means by "Riina's papello."
