I know this probably belongs in the various articles section. But due to the lack of recent topics we can generate more topics/interest on here..

It's a link to a video on this website. I did throw in an interesting article at the bottom in the same paper.

Video: Detroit Mafia Still 'Thrives In The Shadows,' Says Expert

Brothers Anthony (left) and Vito Giacalone
In its heyday, from the 1950s to the 1980s, the Detroit Mafia made money on gambling, drugs, prostitution, loansharking and legit businesses. Big-name gangsters like Vito and Anthony Giacalone and Joseph Zerilli and Jack Tocco were constant targets of FBI investigations and wiretaps, and their names surfaced in media reports on occasion.

Today, many of the old-time gangsters are dead. But the Detroit Mafia lives on, thanks to their sons and relatives, according to local mob expert Scott Burnstein.

"They thrive in the shadows as they always have, just on a smaller scale," Burnstein tells Deadline Detroit.

Burnstein, the author of six books and creator of The Gangster Report site, talks to Deadline Detroit in the video below about who runs the local mob, what they're up to and why we hear so little about them.

I wonder if the Detroit guys saw that the FBI would harasss them if they tried to rebuild the organization and just decided fuck it the life is over and wind it down.


Imagine the resources that where allocated into chasing the Kansas City and Cleveland guys before they realized they weren’t doing anything

Capeci is the prominent authority on anything New York OC . However, Scott is a fantastic source on OC and doesn’t get his due IMO.
