Mafia articles from Brazil
Hi guys, I found several articles talking about the Italian and Italian-American Mafia in the Brazilian newspapers (which is where I live) and would like to share with you, the ones I will post about the arrest of Tommaso Buscetta in 1972 and 1983 (newspapers of the respective time), and there are other old newspapers of the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s that talk about figures such as Lucky Luciano and Meyer Lansky as well:

Very cool. I don't know about Brazil, but I heard that there were Mafia and Camorra groups in Argentina.

Re: Mafia articles from Brazil
Hi guys, I'm bringing a translated article about a Gambino arrest.
Original Article in "FBI detêm chefe da Máfia quando tentava Assalto":
http://memoria.bn.br/DocReader/DocReade ... M%C3%A1fia
FBI detains Mafia boss when attempting robbery.
New York 24, (UP-Diário do Parana) Carlo Gambino, a 67-year-old "boss of all the bosses" of the Mafia, was arrested by FBI agents accused of conspiring to rob the occupants of an armored van carrying 6 million of dollars
An FBI spokesman said the robbery never happened but provided no further details. It is only known that the van belonged to U.S. Trucking Company of New York.
Gambino was detained in Brooklyn where he has had a 25-year-old office apartment facing the sea. The old mobster also has a $ 100,000 home in Massapequa, Long Island.
Gambino was already detained six times, mostly because of illegal drink traffic and was sued in all these opportunities.
He was imprisoned for 22 months in 1937 for operating a distillery in Philadelphia and fined $ 1,000 in 1941 for conspiracy to evade tax.
Gambino has a son, Thomas Gambino, married with a daughter of Thomas Luchese, one of the main heads of the Mafia that is missing.
FBI Director Edgar Hoover said in Washington that Gambino "recently took over the direction of Cosa Nostra (the American Mafia) that was in the hands of Vito Genovese," which would make him the most powerful mobster in the country.
Genovese died last year at a federal penitentiary, leaving a void that was filled by Gambino.
It would have been Genovese who had Cosa Nostra's Brooklyn leader Albert Anastasia killed in 1957, a mission that would have been carried out by the Gambino gunslinger.
Gambino took over as head of the Brooklyn "Mafia" family and went on to lead a thousand members with whom he controlled illegal gambling, narcotics trafficking, and practiced blackmail among other things.
