For the past few days, everyone has been asking me about the arrest of a Cosa Nostra member in Sicily. It’s all over the news, and I’ve decided to talk about it in today’s video. This gives me an opportunity to compare Cosa Nostra here in America to the Cosa Nostra in Italy and even the Cartels in Mexico. I’ll be reading an article about the case and giving you my perspective as a former caporegime. I’ll also be sharing my feelings on the current state of organized crime and the differences between Cosa Nostra in Italy and the United States. Don’t miss this episode.

I was waiting for your views on this story , great show thanks👍
Michael did you ever deal with the IRA ?
I would imagine to be on the run that long, they had to have help from corrupt police and Government officials
Drink every time Michael takes on and off his glasses.
One million. I can remember when you were at 150k like it was yesterday.
Great work. I would guess you were probably Shadow Banned after you started covering certain subjects too.
Makes it even more impressive.
Thank you
If you ever want to talk to researchers about different mafias—at least on the european continent and migrating clans/groups— three recommendations:
★Anna Sergi
★Federico Varese
★Mark Galeotti
Some of them could want to know your insights too on mafia and could give you relevant information for your viewers, even for the price of book advertising.
Another great video my friend keep up the amazing work and God bless you sir 🙏
Still don’t like Geraldo
Hey Mr Franzese, what are your views on serial killers? Thanks, Jeff.
Not sure about just getting arrested, what if the entire force was corrupted and the ppl are fighting back…
Michael would love to see you review the Italian tv show Gomorrah!
I’m so happy for you achieving the million subscribers. You deserve it because it is obvious that you work hard and that you are very serious about your programming content . I always enjoy your videos and learning how you have become successful through hard work. ❤❤❤
I live in the Dominican Republic. A year and a half ago one of my very good friends was captured in the DR after being on the run for 7 years. We had no idea that he was an Italian mafioso on the run. We just knew him as Mark the Chef. The authorities claim that they caught him because they recognized his tattoos in cooking videos that he posted on Facebook. You may of heard about it since it was a worldwide news story. The authorities lied. He never posted any cooking videos. They caught him because his bank card got stuck in a ATM machine. He wasn’t able to retrieve the card because he didn’t have ID that matched the card (It turned out to be his mom’s card) anyway another friend of ours who was with Mark at the time bribed a bank employee to give him the card back but the damage was done. 2 weeks later interpool arrested him 100 yds away from my apartment as he was arrested walking back to his apartment. The next morning he had his own private flight back to Italy. We were all shocked. Mark is the greatest guy in the world. We still love him to this day. While on the run, Mark got married and had a son. My buddy who bribed the bank employee took care of Mark’s wife and son for close to a year. Eventually they were able to move to Italy to be close to Mark.
Mr. Franzese, thoughts on trump photo op with skinny joey merlino?
Hi Michael if im not mistaken the Rizzuto clan out of montreal was tied in with the bonnano family because the one son Vito was indicted on the Massina take over back in the 80's when three guys were taken out…Vito was one of the shooters and got extradited to the states for it

Hi, Michael! I'm from Bulgaria 🇧🇬 and I'm a big fan of you. So, to my question… I'm watching again all the series of "The Sopranos". So in one of the episodes Tony Soprano said that Joe Bananas killed a made man in Carlo Gambino's family. That led to a war between the two families wich took place for 7 years. Is that true? Do you know anything about that? And, I'm sorry for my english
Does anyone who has been privy to the leaks and disinformation actually believe what the law enforcement, court systems, or governments have to say anymore? Do you think this kind of information manipulation is a new phenomenon? Or do these government branches take short cuts, fabricate evidence, coerce witnesses, and use the system to improve their opportunities, standing in society, and fame for personal benefit.
I'm fairly certain Denaro is a nefarious character, but being found guilty in absentia gives prosecution HUGE leeway!
I just saw a documentary about the Ndrangheta in Italy they are top dogs now
Congrats on 1 milion Subs,greetings from Croatia! 👍
