anyone in that family with any type of association to springfield seems to be far below the level of smarts that most of the organization operates with. i'm blown away that people still try and collect insurance money through arson these days, much less someone with known mob connections, as if the fire isn't going to be looked at as anything other than arson right from the start of the investigation! ;)

And WHAT THE FUCK happened with his partner?

The guy locked him in the burning kitchen and he had to be rescued by the fire depart?
Embarrassingly inept for that family.
Don't give me your f***ing Manson lamps.
