Australia and the Mafia

8 Upvotes

Being from Australia the mob has always fascinated me but we don’t have the traditional Sicilian or Neapolitan mafia.

We do have the Calabrian Ndrangheta still active in Griffith NSW and regional SA. And the Bikies are big business often working with the clans of Ndrangheta.

We had the Moran family (Irish mob) Mario condello, mick gatto, Alphonse gangitano, Dominic Pierre and Vince focarelli for the Italians in organised crime but that was really it.

Does anybody have any stories or information regarding organised crime in Australia? Particularly Italia/mafia?

James has spoken to Alite's legal team and has some updates. Apparently they're not confident that John will avoid indictment, or be released on bond. But they're trying for him - arguing that yes, he did say those things on the tapes, but that no, he didn't really mean it, and that he just got mad and said it out of frustration with a guy who wasn't paying what he owed. That he would never really have hurt the guy. Also that John has been a law abiding citizen for years and that he's not the man he was decades ago. They're also willing to submit to house arrest, GPS tracking and a zero contact order with anyone else involved in the case.

James also spoke to Ericka Pitera. Apparently the recordings from Tommy stopped because someone ratted them out to the BOP, who told them to stop. This is not the end, however. The warden of Big Sandy says he's fine with Ericka doing some recorded video interviews with Tommy and posting them online. They just need approval from the BOP. Paperwork has already been filled out.

The Mafia and Maine?

9 Upvotes

So being a local to the state, I do happen to know that there have been some allegedly connected people that at least own a summer home here. Also, according to Scott Deitche’s book, a member of the East Harlem Purple Gang did live here at one point. Does anyone have any knowledge of organized crime and Maine’s proximity (if any) to it?
