In this episode, we delve into the intricate world of the Chicago Outfit’s informants, featuring insights from my late friend, Cam Robinson, and Paul Whitcomb, a well-respected expert on the mob. This special compilation draws from past interviews and shorts that once highlighted various informants who operated during the notorious 1980s era of organized crime in Chicago. Through a series of concise segments, we explore the lives of key players who chose to turn against the Outfit, revealing the complex motivations and consequences of their decisions. We kick things off by revisiting the tale of Paul “Peanuts” Pansko, an influential figure leading the Polish faction of the Outfit. Pansko's criminal activities, including a racetrack heist, not only placed him in dangerous territory but also set into motion a chain of events that would later link to the infamous Family Secrets trial. It's during this journey that we outline how interconnected the informants’ narratives are, showcasing how Pansko’s actions inadvertently unraveled parts of the organization.   The discussion shifts to more dramatic stories, including Mario Rainone. Rainone's infamous decision to cooperate with the authorities opened the door to significant revelations about Lenny Patrick, one of the highest-ranking Outfit members to switch sides. Rainone's tapes ultimately led to the dismantling of major sections of the Outfit’s operations, including political connections that had long shielded them from legal repercussions.   We also explore the tale of Ken “Tokyo Joe” Eto, a Japanese mobster who thrived within the Outfit’s ranks. His attempts at self-preservation after surviving an assassination effort highlighted the stark realities faced by those who navigated the perilous landscape of organized crime. As he eventually became a witness for the prosecution, Eto’s insights illuminated the internal workings of one of Chicago’s most feared organizations. The episode further examines dramatic betrayals and deadly encounters that shaped the Outfit’s legacy. From the chilling events surrounding the murders of the Spilotro brothers, orchestrated by their own associates for reasons steeped in loyalty and betrayal, to the grim fate that met informants like Al Toco and the impact of domestic discord on organized crime, each tale is a window into the bleak realities faced by both mobsters and informants alike. As we round out the episode, we reflect on the cultural dynamics surrounding informants, particularly how personal relationships and family ties heavily influenced their decisions to cooperate. It becomes clear through the interviews that while fear of retribution often compels loyalty, the specter of betrayal looms large within the mob. This multifaceted examination blends personal stories with historical context, providing a deeper understanding of the Chicago Outfit’s complexity and its operatives. Join us in this retrospective journey through the shadows of organized crime as we pay homage to those who bravely shared their stories, revealing the inner workings of a criminal empire that continues to fascinate and terrify in equal measure.

Transcript [0:00] Well, hey, guys, after listening to Bob Cooley, one of the more damaging sources and witness and informant to the Chicago Outfit outside of the Calabrese family, [0:13] Nick and his nephew, Frank Jr., I got the rest of the Chicago Outfit informants on tap here. No, not really. They’re not coming in. But I did do a story. I did a series of shorts a few years, or I don’t know, two or three years ago, maybe. [0:32] I interviewed my late friend, Cam Robinson, rest in peace, Cam. So you get to hear from him again. And Paul Whitcomb, who is a Chicago outfit expert, he’s been on this. They used to have some kind of a round table show up there. I don’t know if they still have it or not with the Seiferts. But anyhow, I got these guys to sit down with me and talk about all the different informants in Chicago during the, it was during the 80s. So this is just kind of a series of shorts that I put up before. They’re six or eight minutes long, I think, each one of them, that they talk about different informants. This kind of threw it together as another little bonus episode we’ve done. And I went to Chicago, if you notice, after Johnny Russo, which I apologize for in a way, I don’t know. I mean, the guy’s got some crazy-ass stories, doesn’t he? Who am I to say that he didn’t do it? But most people know that he didn’t do most of that stuff. Anyhow, so I threw up another Chicago right away about the guy that had the race wire that they killed, James Reagan. [1:38] Then i had this interview that i’d been doing during those last couple weeks with bob cooley who’s appeared uh out of nowhere and he’ll maybe see him on some other shows now he’s he’s wanting to do shows he tells me so after hearing bob cooley talk i thought well i’m doing do one more i want to just throw it up as an extra uh from some of my old chicago outfit stuff and that’ll finish me off on the Chicago outfit for a while. I hadn’t, I hadn’t been in Chicago, uh, doing shows about Chicago for quite a while. And, and I didn’t want to, uh, neglect you guys. You know, I get a lot of books written about New York and I’ve got all these authors that are wanting to do these books about New York. Uh, not so much about Chicago. So if you got anybody that, you know, wants to, got a book and wants to come on the show, uh, talking about the outfit, why steer them to me. So anyhow, just sit back and relax and enjoy. [2:37] My late, great friend, Cam Robinson. One more look at Cam, for those of you who remember him, and Paul Whitcomb. And we’re going to talk about famous snitches from Chicago. Thanks, guys. Well, let’s move along now to, this is kind of interesting, Paul Peanuts Panczko, who was the leader of the Polish branch of the outfield. Is that what you would call Peanuts Panczko, the leader of the Polish branch? If the Polish branch is the Panczko family, which you could easily say there were three brothers, then yeah, that wouldn’t be right. We haven’t really done a show on them. I don’t know a whole lot about them other than they were released at all. So we said non-Italian, Peckerwood, as we call them at Kansas City, professional criminals who did a lot of business with different outfit people. And he did a robbery of a racetrack. I think it’s the Balmoral Racetrack. It’s the name of it. James Duke Basile and then Panczko was in trouble for that and he convinced Basile to come in and they did some talking remember anything about that situation, you know in a lot of ways you. [3:50] Panczko could be considered one of the first dominoes that eventually led to the Family Secrets trial. Panczko, as you said, led to Dookie Bazile, who they had done robberies together. Bazile led them to Scarpelli, who was a much higher guy. I mean, there’s debate, but he was, because there was a making ceremony at this time, but Scarpelli was pretty highly ranked. I mean, he was a known killer, and he was up there. He was in the wild bunch. But Scarpelli then did tell them about a lot of the things that Frank Calabrese had done. [4:28] He wasn’t known as well as Scarpelli had brought him up to be. And a lot of those things dominoed into what would eventually lead to family secrets years later. [4:42] Scarpelli, I think, did not know so much about Nick, but he did know about Frank. And so a lot of that information sort of filled in the gaps. And even though Frank Calabrese Jr. Led them led them to Nick They A lot of seeds were planted And can be traced back to Pianus Pansico Um. [5:01] So it is kind of an interesting line. Basile, he wore a wire on Scarpelli and not even talking about a lot of these things. It’s not the FBI knew about that. They were in a car together. Right. If I remember right, he even talked about a mob graveyard. They went up there and they found two or three bodies. One of them was connected. It wasn’t anybody really important, but one of them was connected to Harry Aleman. So it was a pretty important wearing of a wire on Scarpelli, who then came at himself for a while. And that’s what led to the family secrets. He talked about Frank Calabrese. Is that what you’re saying? Yeah, that’s right. And some of those bodies in that graveyard were 10 years apart, which was interesting. I’ve got, it’s on the map that I created, but some of those bodies, there was years in between them. So it was something they were going back to and they believed that there were a lot of things there they did not find. Yeah, because they built a health care facility or something. They built some big building over where there would have been bodies. Right. Right. And the fascinating thing about this is Scarpelli, like, just like Cam said, this guy was a serious killer. He was a muscle builder. He was a terrifying guy. I mean, he had almost inhuman physical strength. Yeah. And when he flipped, he was completely debriefed by the FBI and the DOJ and then decided to try and change his mind. [6:27] But before he could do that He hung himself in the bathroom Of the Metropolitan Correctional Center With his hands behind his back And a bag over his head, Who was he in prison with? Who was he in MCC with, Paul? Was it anybody? He did happen to be in the MCC with the German at the time. He bound his hands behind his back and put a bag over his own head. He did. He did. And so the outfit continues to somehow persuade people to take their own lives rather than testify against them. [7:07] It’s a hell of a way to die by suicide it is by suicide at least they didn’t have arrows in his back, not as far as we know yeah it was terrible he cut his own head off I saw a cartoon once that the homicide guy liked to go ahead and maybe real suckle of suicide because then you could just walk away from it so there’s a dead body laying there with a bunch of arrows at his back and a homicide detective standing over him with a hand and pencil and says, hmm, suicide, huh? [7:44] Got the inside joke. It worked homicide. You see how those guys sometimes will try to make something into a suicide that probably is a homicide. On the other hand, we had one, we had a mob guy, he wasn’t really a mob associate, who had gone to Vegas. He lost a lot of money and they found his body in his car at the airport parking lot after coming back from Vegas and they found out later lost a lot of money and the car was parked up against the fence and he was shot in the head and there was no gun in the car you know found so just assume that somebody shot him in his head the car kept going and rolling up against the fence. [8:25] But this one detective, I remember Bob Pence is his name. He was dumb. And he started, he went back over and he dusted that car for prints again. And he got some more evidence out of it. And then he went back to the airport and he looked and started asking questions. And he found out later that somebody who had a pickup truck parked there had a week later, three or four days later, come back and got his truck. When he got home he found a pistol inside the bed of his truck and he called the airport or he called somebody turned it in Pinson found that pistol that was a pistol that that shot the guy so Pinson's theory was he was rolling along in his car he shot himself in the head and then he flipped that pistol out is with a reaction he flipped it out and went in the bed in that pickup and then it rolled on up against the fence and they ruled it a suicide wow damn that’s not that different than Scarpelli I mean the fbi to this day insists it was suicide yeah well, Oh, well, right. All right. Let’s move along to Mario. John, the arm. Rainone. [9:41] Is that correct, Cam? That yeah, that’s Rainone. Yeah. So tell us about that. I know we talked about this, you know, a little bit about this one. [9:50] This is kind of a funny one. He was he was sent to kill a building inspector. Raynaud was with the Grand Avenue crew and so he’s en route to kill this guy and this is one of those mob blunders and he sees a couple guys following him and it’s Rudy Fredo and Willie Messino and he recognizes him when he’s driving over there and it’s important to point out who these guys are, Cam, not to interrupt you Willie Messino, was the right hand man and bodyguard for Tony Accardo for 30 years I mean, he was serious, serious business. Rudy Frayto, you know, the chin, but Massino was serious news. If you saw Willie Massino, you knew he were in for trouble. Yeah, he wasn’t there as backup to do anything except clean up after Rainone, including Rainone. So Rainone saw the writing on the wall. He pulls up and he goes straight to the FBI. [10:54] And he informs, he talks to them and gives them his information. And later on, he sort of regrets doing so, denies that he ever did. Uh, there were, there were, uh, articles written about him. There’s a, there’s a Chicago Tribune writer, John Cass, and Ray Nolan had a back and forth with him writing letters. This is how these mob guys in Chicago operate, talking about, I’m, I ain’t no beefer. And, uh. Once he was out of prison in 2009, he was busted several more times. If you can believe it, he stayed in the criminal life. He was robbing a liquor store with another guy. And the guy he was robbing with, this is why I jump ahead a little bit, was a guy named Vincent Forliano. He claimed that he didn’t even know Fratto or Messino. These were guys he didn’t know, so he never would have informed against them. The guy he was robbing the liquor store with and he was committing other robberies with, Vincent Forliano, was Fredo’s son-in-law. [11:56] So he was committing robberies with a guy related to the guy, but he didn’t know who they were. And to say that somebody didn’t know, as Paul said, Willie Messino, is just ludicrous. Anybody in the criminal atmosphere, period, knew who Willie Messino was because you were probably paying money to it. to exist. And this is extremely important because Rainone, at the time this happened, Rainone cooperated long enough to record conversations with Lenny Patrick. That’s right. That’s right. And that set dominoes in place that would lead to the fall of the outfit. Even though he tried to take back his cooperation, to say he never cooperated, I’ve heard those tapes that were played in trials that I participated in, so I I know better. Uh, and that’s why they call him Mario flip flop Rainone because he, uh, would cooperate and uncooperate and then cooperate. But he is the one who got Lenny Patrick on the hook. Yeah. [13:00] Interesting, interesting. Let’s just continue on with this Lenny Patrick because we weren’t going to talk about him. That’s a good lead hand to talk about another, really one of the most important informants that year who testified. [13:13] Can you talk about the domino that led to the end? Rainone really, really flipped the domino that kicked over. Go ahead, Paul. Well, Lenny Patrick was the highest, and even to this day, remains the highest ranking member of the outfit to ever turn state’s evidence. The guy was a capo in all but name. He had been in charge of Rogers Park, the gambling. He was essentially the head of the Jewish arm of the mafia, kind of the Meyer Lansky figure of Chicago. And when the Lawndale neighborhood moved north to Rogers Park, he moved with them, and he had his own crew. He reported directly to Gus Alex, who was, of course, at the very top, and Sam Carlisi. And he was dealing with Marcello and Carlesi in a number of different outfit ventures, loan sharking. He personally had been staked by Carlesi with a quarter million in cash to put out on the street. And he was involved in extortions Bombings of theaters All these things directly at the command of Sam Carlisi Who was then the boss of bosses of the Chicago outfit So when Rainone got him on tape They set up what was the beginning of the end for the outfit And I think people need to understand who Gus Alex is also For people outside of Chicago Gus Alex was. [14:40] Basically, I guess you could call him the equivalent of maybe the consigliere in Chicago. When you look at Chicago, the triumvirate in the 70s, once a guy like Paul Ricca died and several major outfit leaders died in the early 70s. [14:58] Tony Accardo decided that the outfit would be led by himself, by Joy Iupa, and the political wing and all of the non-Italians and all of the grift and a lot of aspects would be led by Gus Alex. So he was essentially on the same level as Joey Iupa, and he was responsible for much more for things of greater import than Joey Iupa. I mean, controlling the political arm and all the payoffs and all of that is much, much more than the streets and the murders. So all the politics and all the anything that had to do was definitely fell under gus alex and he was part of a ruling triumvirate he was a non-italian part of a ruling triumvirate with iupa and uh acardo so he was the the leader top of the outfit and he had been for years going back to going back to the 30s and the 40s 40 he had come up under, the Murray the Camel Humphreys and had made those connections he was the most connected guy in the Chicago outfit, so for a guy like Lenny Patrick to be. [16:15] Rollover against is essentially the political leader, national political leader and political leader of Chicago. This was absolutely crippling to the outfit. That was he wiped out the entire political arm of the Chicago outfit. After Lenny Patrick brought down Gus Alex, this became a basically a street crime organization. It was that those political contacts. I mean, I think that’s a fair statement, right, Paul? Those political contacts and judges, I mean, that was all but eliminated with Gus Alex going away. You’re absolutely right, Cam. And he not only took out Gus Alex, but he took out the boss of the Italians, too. That’s right, yeah. Both of them at the same time. He wiped out the outfit, and you put it beautifully by saying it became a street crime organization. You think about the division of labor and it started with IUP and IUP and. [17:19] La Pietra, Jackie Cerone, they had all the gambling, a lot of the sports gambling, but they also had the skim from Las Vegas, and they ran all that stuff, while Gus Alex, along with Lenny Patrick, ran all that politics, and you can’t have a mob organization if you don’t have cover politically. That’s why even in Kansas City, we’re pretty clean here, but we still never had any real mob prosecutions. [17:47] And it certainly had very few, if any, little, if any mob prosecutions at Cook County. And you couldn’t even get convicted of a real crime, murder, assault, or something. It’s just a straight-out crime. You weren’t even trying to do a RICO, I think, on anybody. So it was, you know, they just operated with impunity. Well, you took out that whole gambling side. That was all the money coming in. And then shortly thereafter, you take out the political side, who then turns back and gets the new boss on the gambling side and loan sharking and all that. [18:23] I’ll tell you, by 1990, the outfit’s gone. It really is. It still exists to a degree, but Sam Carlisi was the last traditional old line boss of the outfit. you, that, in my opinion, that ever ruled. After that, it was never the same. Yeah, I think a guy like Gus Alex, you know, like you said, Gary, you had Aiuppa who was dealing with gambling, but I think that’s a lot of, there’s a lot of optics to that, you know, and you’ve got all these cities who have got characters who are not Italian, Gus Alex in Chicago, and, you know, as Paul said, Meyer Lansky, who was New York, and you had Mashie Rockman in Cleveland, and these characters not italians so they know when to step back and let and let the italians talk but that doesn’t mean that they’re not running things it’s just for the optics of city to city where the italians have to see that they’re dealing with italians they don’t walk in the room it doesn’t mean that behind the scenes they’re not pulling the levers they just because of of the uh uh criminal um. [19:34] The the criminal view of of non-italians in that world sort of sort of their own prejudices these guys don’t always walk in the room when they’re dealing with other cities gus alex is is sitting down with anybody in chicago but you go to kansas city you go to new york, you know meyer lansky would leave the room when they were when they were talking you know italian to Italian. And the same thing with Gus Alex or Mace Rockman or any of those other guys who are not Italian. It was just an optics city to city. It doesn’t mean that they weren’t pulling the levers. Is it Yehuda or Jehuda, Cam? Jehuda. I’ve always heard of Jehuda. Yeah, Jehuda. So he kind of dealed with the IRS that year. [20:23] He must have had some. The IRS was really strong working the mob in Chicago. I’ve noticed several references to IRS investigations. We did not have that in Kansas City, and the IRS did a little bit, but they were not as strong as they were up in Chicago. [20:38] Yeah, he met with an agent, Tom Moriarty, who’s been around and worked Chicago for a long time. He was a pretty well-known guy up here. But Bill Jehota worked under Ernest Rocco Infelice, who was a real powerhouse going back a long time. And out in Cicero, and his crew, a lot of these crews had their own little names, and they called the good shit Lollipop. He was a huge gambling enterprise, you know. And they bought a house up in Lake County, which is north of the city. It’s funny, this house they bought was actually the family that had lived in it. The son had murdered the family. It was a murder house before the outfit bought it. and uh they bought it used it as a as a gambling den and and after that moved out they used it for prostitution and they would park cars at a nearby motel that they ran and then then have a uh a, valet service that drove him to this this gambling house and there was also quite a few uh murders that uhJahoda witnessed i’m sure he took no part in it he just happened to be standing outside of the house when they when they these murders were committed there was a uh was it hal smith and um. [21:57] Oh i can’t remember the they killed somebody else in this home and they burnt these were guys who didn’t want to pay his tree tags, and they were gamblers who refused to give in. And he brought down this entire crew. I mean, Rocco and Felice was… There’s a famous picture of the day after the Spolatros were killed. And it was really the upper echelon of the up that you’ve got. You’ve got little Jimmy Marcello. You’ve got the boss, Sam Wings-Carlesi. You’ve got the street boss, Joe Ferriola. And you’ve got Rocco and Felice, who’s right there. These are the four top guys, basically, in the outfit as far as at this time, the Cicero crew had risen to the top. That was the powerhouse crew. And so he was involved in those discussions because he was such a powerhouse out there with Ferriola being the street boss. So he was, it really can’t be thatJahodatestimony that eventually brought down this crew was really, it really crippled that crew for a long time. Well, those people that went down in that trial have only in the last five years come out of prison. Yeah, we’ve actually had been talking to somebody. We’ve had the… [23:13] Opportunity to meet he brought down uh uh robert um to go beat um bellavia and another guy who doesn’t like to be mentioned who runs a pretty successful pizza pizza chain up in lake county and uh these guys went down for a long time the beat was down for 25 years and he just came out. [23:39] So and billJahoda have if you read his testimony it is kind of kind of odd that he was standing outside of the building and just looked in the window and they were committing a murder and he just he he places himself outside of the house witnessing a murder through the window which is convenient when you’re the one testifying against murderers it certainly is yeah. [24:03] So so that was he was involved in the gambling so that makes sense then the irs got him and millions of dollars millions of dollars a month they were bringing and he met uh, i don’t remember paul and you did he he contacted moriarty right or did moriarty reach out to him because he was under investigation i i thought Jahoda was was worried about himself so he reached out to them i can’t remember the details i think you’re right yeah i i think he was worried about his own his own safety gary and he reached out to moriarty and they met up at a hotel just outside the city on the uh up in the northwest and uh they talked about things i actually found the location and on the little map you can find where where they met each other but he they met each other in disgust and they would meet different locations and and jahuda wore a wire and some of those some of those wiretaps are they really make for that. [25:05] That those conversations come right out of the movie just i love what we’re doing out here and i love my job and and you actually where i’m going to make you trunk music i mean you really hear these things that that you see it right in the movies i mean you you can’t write the dialogue that these guys are actually using it’s it’s it’s you know it it comes straight out of a book i mean You’ve got, you’ve got, uh, this is the toughest dialogue you’ll ever hear. Interesting. How’d you buy it? Where’d you find that at? Is that, uh, it’s probably not the audio in probably anywhere. No book or something. Yeah. You can, if you look up, if you look up different, different, you know, you go on newspapers.com or you go in different, uh, I believe, uh, I’ve got, um, uh, mob textbook by, um, Howard Abedinsky. I’ve got a couple of copies of his, of his textbook, organized crime. And he’s got some clips of it. This guy who owns a pizza shop up north is talking about how he loves his job. He loves what he does. And it’s funny to hear he talk about smashing somebody and loving what you do. Really? I’ve heard a few conversations like that back at the station house. [26:25] I don’t care. It’s on both sides. Is that what you’re saying? When you live in that world. Those guys can go either direction. [26:37] Well, let’s talk about ex-Chicago cops. Speaking of cops, let’s talk about, Vince Rizza, his daughter actually appeared on that Chicago Mob Housewives, or they tried to do a show. And Frank Schweiss’ daughter was on it. And Pia Rizza, who has gotten some notoriety as a model or something, I can’t remember. And she really, she was tight. She would not talk about her dad at all. I read an interview of her. She would just talk about her dad at all. But he came in and he testified against Harry Aleman, of all people, and linked him to the murder of this bookie, Anthony Ritlinger. Remember that one? [27:22] Go ahead, Paul. No, that one I’m not very up on, Cam. I’m sorry. So, Ritlinger, I believe he didn’t want to pay his street tax, if I’m right, Gary. Yeah, you’re right. He had been warned. Rattlinger had been warned that he needs to pay, he needs to pay, and he was making a good deal of money. And Ratlinger was he was brought in just the normal course of action with the wild bunch because he was a wild bunch murder I’m a little rusty but here it comes so he was a wild bunch killing, he was brought in he was warned it was the typical Harry Ailerman and if I’m remembering correctly and people correct me if I’m not it was Butch Petruccelli they sat him down. [28:11] Usually it would be Butch and, um, uh, Borsellino who would do the talking, uh, Tony Borsellino, and they would do the talking. And then afterwards, Butch Petruccelli would just sit down and glare. So he was a pretty scary guy. And he had that, uh, uh, Malocchio, the, the evil eye, and he would just glare at people. And that would send the message and Rattlinger didn’t, didn’t listen. He was making too much money, he’s not going to pay any damn Degos, that kind of line. And so he, of course, fell victim to these guys. And I believe he may have been trunk music. I think I remember this one, Matt, but I can’t remember. Yeah, I got this one. He went to a restaurant. That’s right. That’s right. And he had already, his daughter lived with him. I’m not sure about the wife, but he had warned his family to take all kinds of extra cautious. He knew something was coming. And it was, you know, after reading that thing, it’s, It’s kind of like, well, we talked about Spilotro taking off their jewelry. Ken Eto did this similar kind of a thing and told his wife he may not be coming back. [29:22] I tell you, another guy that did the same thing was Sonny Black. That’s right. It came out about Joe Pistone, the Donnie Brasco story. He did the same thing. He went to a sit-down or a meeting, and he took off his jewelry, I believe left his billfold, when he went to the meeting. this. Ken Eto was the same way. Ken Eto, I think, thought he could talk his way out. I think all of them thought they could talk their way out of it. So Rettlinger went out by himself and sat in a prominent place in this local restaurant that was really well known up there in the north side. It’s north of downtown Chicago, and I can’t remember the name of it. [30:02] And he just sat there and pretty soon a car pulls up and two guys run in kind of like a Richard Cain kind of a deal and just start popping. And that was a Harry Aleman deal. That’s right. He did, I believe. There’s an old guy who married the girlfriend of Felix Adlericio, I believe. He and this woman are sitting out in front of their brownstone, and Aleman and some other dude pull out and get out when guys walk up to him and shoot him and kill him. [30:31] And so that was – Yeah, that was Petrocelli and Aleman walked up, And he had been, he had been dating, uh, uh, Aldericio’s, Alderico’s girlfriend. Now that’s the famous hit from beyond the grave. Because we’re going to go on the old Samuel’s just sitting in the lawn chair thinking he’d got it made. That’s right. You know, Gary, you and I did the show on the outfit, uh, a long time ago. No, I’m sorry. On the wild bunch, a long time ago. So a lot of those, and they did so much work back in the day. A lot of those run together, but yeah, you’re now, uh, now that you’re right, writing her was he was eating in a restaurant. I’m, Uh, I can’t remember the name. It may have been, been Luna’s, but he was, went out in public. He thought he’d be safe. And like you said, a lot of these guys have a six cents because they come up on the street and they know these things. And, uh, like a guy like Sammy and Reno knew it was coming. He was dodging them for a long time, but they, they know that their time is coming. Eventually they just, they stay ahead of it for a while and figure they can fight their way out or talk their way out. And yeah, they, he was blown away right in public. Like it was similar to the, I remember it being similar to the, to the Richard Cain murder. And this was in, it was right around the same time. It was, it was in the mid seventies, 75, 74, 75, 76. It might’ve been 75 that writing or happened right, right in the middle of the restaurant. [31:58] I’ve been a lot cheaper to pay the street tax, I reckon. You know, and it wasn’t, I don’t recall that they’re asking for so much, but once these murder started happening yeah i think it was it wasn’t like it was half or 75 i think they just wanted it was you know it might have been a quarter it might have just been a flat fee across the board but once that street tax was was instituted i mean we’ve talked about this before gary that was when the wild bunch was out there that was that was they really didn’t play around When Ferriola told these guys, get everybody in line, [32:31] they really cracked down and they weren’t playing at all. You pay or you die. And guys like Alem and Patrick Shelley, whether it was right in public or whatever, in the outfit in the 70s, Paul, you know this from Richard Cain and several others. They just write in public would just blow you away. and writing her was just was almost textbook just like the Richard Cain it was it was right in the right in the restaurant yeah I’ll tell you I’ll tell. [33:05] I was conflating him with Hal Smith. Okay. I’ll tell you something about those mob hits. When they kill somebody in public like that in a public way, more than likely it’s because whoever the victim is has been alerted, and they can’t get anybody to get close to them. They will already try to send somebody around to get them isolated, and when they can’t get them isolated, then they want them bad enough. They’ll just lay, as Frank Calabrese, I heard him say once, well, lay on them. And I thought, oh, that’s interesting. Well, lay on them. I read that somewhere else. They use that term when you’re following somebody and you’re trying to set them up, or yet they lay on them. Calabrese even said, you know, you’re like, get an empty refrigerator box and hide inside of it. I mean, it’s just like the kind of stuff we used to do at the intelligence unit to run surveillances on people. And so they’ll lay on them for a while until they can get you somewhat isolated. And if they can’t, then they’ll just take you out in public. It might be to send a message, but I don’t think so because it’s so risky to get somebody in public. You can have a young, all-fitty cop in there that you didn’t even notice, and he comes out blazing. And, you know, it’s just not worth it. Even if you take him out, he’s probably got to get you. [34:21] So it’s kind of a last resort. A desperation. Yeah, it’s desperation because they can’t get you isolated. [34:28] You look at some of these public murderers, guys like Richard Cain or Ridinger, like you said, who was on the watch. Sam Annarino, who was right on Cicero. [34:39] A guy like Chris Carty, who was years later. I mean, these are guys who would have been smart enough and street smart enough to be on the watch, to watch their step, to know what was going on. With the exception of a guy like Michael Cagnoni, who just happened to be difficult to get, and he probably might have had an idea that something was happening, but I think just he was a family guy, and so it was hard to isolate. They blew him up on the interstate, but I think that in general, that’s a good point, Gary. These guys, if they just run up and blow away, it’s just a last resort. That’s an excellent point. I have always been in that camp of, oh, that must be sending a message. But you, with your experience, I think you’re exactly right. One thing, guys, I think we’re mixing up Sambo Cesario with Sam Annarino. I was thinking when they – yeah, you’re right, Paul. I was thinking, though, when they blew away Sam Annarino in the parking lot with his family, though, they had been trying to get him for several months. And they finally just went after him in the parking lot, called in a robbery, and blew him away in the furniture store parking lot. That was what I meant. Yeah, Gary was referring to Sambo earlier. I just meant they had been trying to get Sam Annarino for a long time, and when they couldn’t, they just got him in the parking lot. [36:08] Well, interesting. You know, no matter how much terror these guys strike in the heart of their underlings, in the end, they still will turn once in a while. And I think people don’t really not turn because they’re afraid of getting killed so much if they don’t turn because they don’t want to have their family suffering the disgrace of them being a rat or a snitch. I think that’s more important to be a man and go out like a man in this subculture and believe me I’ve lived in a subculture where being a man and being a tough guy is more important than anything else, I think that’s the most important thing that keeps people from coming in you’re like a wimp you’re a puss, you can’t take it, can’t handle it you know what I mean you can’t handle five years I could do five years standing on my head or a tray like the dude told me so uh you know but even even with all that and still there’s a certain percentage that will end up coming in sure and usually there are people that either don’t care about their family like lenny patrick yeah or that don’t have close family so that they don’t have it so much of that pressure that you’re talking about gary because you make a really valid point that that that cultural value is so strong yeah yeah it’s it’s. [37:36] In a lot of these small towns, you see in Detroit where they’re all family tied in and everything, you don’t see informants. I think they’ve had one. Kansas City, as you said, Gary, you don’t see. But then you look at a place like Rochester where they’re all just lower tier mob guys. Everybody was informing on everybody because they really weren’t as upper echelon sort of mob guys. So I think that, like you said, once you get that culture seeped in, you’ve got those families and all, there’s a lot of factors. But if it’s a deep-rooted mob town, you really don’t see a lot of real informants. [38:11] So, guys, now we’ve got one that I did a show on. I did a couple of shows on him. I talked to the FBI agent who brought him in and dealt with him for quite a while. Ken Tokiojo Eto. He survived a murder attempt. When that didn’t happen for him with the outfit, what happened after that? [38:32] I believe his attempted assassins got killed themselves. So tell me a little bit about Tokyo Joe Eto. There’s a photograph I have from the late 50s, early 60s And it shows Joe Ferriola And a couple of other heavyweights Hanging around with a young Ken Eto, And a lot of people didn’t know who Ken Eto was But he ran the Japanese game, Gambling, Bolita And lots of money Poured into the outfit through Tokyo Joe As they called him And there was a rumor that perhaps Tokyo Joe was going to turn under a little bit of pressure. And so Jasper Campisi put three slugs in the back of his head. [39:22] Miraculously, he survived three slugs at point blank range. And if he wasn’t going to turn state’s evidence before, he certainly had a powerful incentive to do so now. He seems to insist As I’ve heard that he was not His intention was not It’s hard to say at this point But he says he had no intention Of flipping and that he’s not sure What the evidence was against him But he was not going to flip until, It was Yeah. [39:55] I’m drawing a blank, Paul. Who was it that sent? It wasn’t the saint. It was Vincent Solano. He was kind of Vincent Solano, who was a union guy and a made guy up there. He kind of had which one. [40:11] He was a capo. And which crew was it? Do you remember? He was on the north side. North side crew. North side crew. And actually, Ken went to Vince Solano and had a talk with him. Said you know what i can do this he was looking at a tray i had a dude tell me what’s that pressure and tried to get him to talk and he said uh he said what am i gonna get out of this a tray he said man i can do a tray standing on my head and i threw him right then that’s right gotta talk to me so uh and that’s all he had to do but solano for some reason uh who knows what was in his head because uh ken Eto had made him a lot of money a lot of money and he was a tough little dude he had he had survived he had been put in the uh concentration camps if you will during the internment camps yeah internment camps and then came as a young man up chicago and been around for a long time by the time this all came down he’d been with him for a long time and made him a lot of money and all kinds of different gambling operations but particularly the bolita. [41:13] So uh it just didn’t make sense i heard one thing that these guys in chicago got the idea Yeah, to keep the noise down, they were loading their own rounds with lighter loads of powder. I don’t know. They had like a hit car up there. The guys in Chicago were pretty sophisticated or tried to be. And so they used these lighter loads. And when it went into his head, it just didn’t penetrate his skull. I remember I was at the hospital once, and there was a young guy who had gotten shot in the head. And they said that the bullet was not a good bullet because it went in under his skin and then went under his scalp, along his skull, and then lodged up on his forehead. [41:56] Wow. And so Eto was kind of the same way. Those bullets were probably lodged up underneath his scalp. He pulled himself to a neighboring, I believe it was a pharmacy that was right there, a corner store. And then that guy went to help him. I think he had to dial a call of 911 or whatever. 911 was in place then. He had to call for help for himself from a phone booth. You know, he saved his own life by being smart and playing dead. Yeah, that’s right. And you look at Chicago, it’s a city of neighborhoods, and you’ve got the Mexican town, and you’ve got the different towns, and you’ve got Chinatown where there’s so much money and so much gambling. And while Haneda was Japanese and there’s obviously division between Japanese and Chinese, it would be much easier for him to go in and then some of these outfit guys and because of different things going on back in the 50s, 60s, and 70s. But he could go into neighborhoods and represent the outfit in ways in different communities that the outfit wouldn’t go into or a lot of these made guys. [43:12] And that gave him entry into a lot of communities. In the Asian community, there’s a lot of gambling that he was able to tap into. He was smart enough to see that as a route that maybe the Italian guys didn’t, just like Lenny Patrick, who we’ve talked about in other episodes, had that access into the Jewish communities and other Jewish gangsters. There’s a lot of gambling there. If you can get somebody who has an in to different communities, that’s really a way to go and that’s part of why he made so much money. A game like BolEto wouldn’t normally be and that’s huge in the Hispanic communities and huge with Asians also. You know in kansas city that’s interesting that you should point that out camp we had a um large vietnamese community moved in after the the boat peoples when it started and they moved in through the same church uh. [44:09] Sacred Heart Church and Don Bosco Center that the Italians moved in, the Sicilians moved into back in the turn of the century, the same neighborhoods. And Italians are getting successful and they’re moving out the suburbs and the Vietnamese are moving in and creating the Vietnamese restaurants and Vietnamese shops. And they brought, they have a love for gambling. Like you said, they have huge love for gambling. They don’t drink so much or do so many drugs, but they do love to gamble, it seemed to me like. [44:36] And so they had their own book. he was called the king a guy a friend of mine told me a story uh there’s a mob book he got on the periphery that neighborhood’s got a joint and he he was running a sports book and he had a lot of action going in and out of his joint so this one vietnamese guy had a big debt owed to the king so he goes down and talks to this guy’s name was Larry Strada, he ends up getting killed by some other uh mobsters in a deal they thought he was going to testify but i just needed to hear are there, this young, middle-aged Vietnamese guy goes down to the Caddyshack, Larry Strada’s bar. And he starts telling him about the king. He said, man, he said, the king, you take all your business. He said, he got all business down here. He take all your business. He said, you know, you need to do something about the king. He said, you know, we’re close to the river here. And then he made a motion across his throat like he was cutting his throat. So he was trying to get out of his gambling debt to convince this Italian, La Cosa Nostra bookie to go back and kill me yeah king piano. [45:42] You know i’ve heard a lot of stories and some of them are true some are not that one had to ring a truth to it it had a definite ring of truth that that got to do that playing them against each other yeah you bet and you know another thing about tokyo joe and you know he could testify But Ben Solano had Campizé and Gattuso killed right away. Found them in the trunk of their car, I think. Maybe at the airport, even. [46:09] Chicago trunk music, but they have some saying like that. And so Solano knew that they could testify against him, and they didn’t want to go down for attempted murder, more than likely, and he just didn’t take a chance. So he had them killed, and I can’t remember if he went down behind this or not. But another thing Tokyo Joe was able to do, I mean, he certainly could expose all the inner workings of what he knew about to the FBI, which gives you a lot of tips on where to go, who to work on, and maybe where to throw up microphones or some wiretaps. But he also traveled around he came to Kansas City during the skimming trial because they’re working on the Chicago hierarchy. So they just fly him into town. They show him that picture, the last separate picture where everybody’s in the picture. And they say, now, who’s that? Oh, that’s Aiuppa. Okay, then who’s that? Oh, that’s Vince Solano. Yeah, he reports to Aiuppa. You know, and who’s that guy? I can’t remember the other people at all. So the nation said that Joe is up hard. Oh, yeah, he reports to this guy. So to show the organization of the mob in Chicago and that it is an organization that gives orders to have other people carry it to make the RICO case, that he was a storyteller for that. And he didn’t know anything about the skim at all. But he was a storyteller on getting the mob name and the organization in front of a jury. That’s huge, as you know, Paul. [47:35] Absolutely. We had a similar arrangement during the Carlesi trial about how [47:40] the Carlesi crew operated and who was who, and to tell the story. Yeah. You have to make it a story. Let’s take a look at Betty Toco, which, uh, this is pretty interesting. There was a, um, I’m not sure. Albert Toco was your husband. Remind me what his position was at the outfit at that time. So Al Toco was, there’s sort of a division on who was the leadership of, who was the central leader of Chicago Heights. There’s Dominic Tuts Palermo and Al Toco, who was really a powerhouse in Chicago Heights. And Tuts Palermo was definitely highly connected and across the pond too, also in Italy. But uh Toco was involved in the in the chop shop wars really really heavily involved and he had a lot of connections in chicago too he was involved with lombardo and a lot of these chop shops throughout chicago he had a lot of partnerships and so this was a 30 million dollar a year racket stolen cars chop shops international car rings uh car rings throughout stolen car rings throughout the country. Toco was responsible for burying the Spolatro brothers. It was very sectioned off. Each crew had a part in their murder. And then Chicago Heights was responsible for the burial. [49:02] And they were down in Enos, Indiana. They got kind of turned around a little bit. They were down a farm road. They were burying them in a freshly tilled field. And the road where they’re on, there’s a little side road that you would drive down. There’s very little down there. I’ve, I’ve seen it, but a car happened to come down middle of night and they were in a, there’s a, there were a couple of feet off of a wooded area and they see this car coming down and they sort of all panicked and before they had a chance to cover the area or really do anything, it just looked like a freshly dug, it really just looked like freshly dug mound. And so they all fled and three of Toco’s guys went one way and he went the other. They had the car in both radios. [49:46] He’s wandering around barefoot, and he calls his wife finally. She shows up, and he’s screaming and yelling. And he runs to Florida, and he’s waiting for permission to come back from Joe Ferriola. He’s worried he’s going to get killed because they find the Spallachos immediately because the farmer sees his field all messed up, freshly tilled ground, and it looks really suspicious, like somebody had been poaching deer and burying the carcass. Uh but Toco was a tyrant to his wife he was he was horrible to her he was he was when you think of what a mob guy was that was Toco you know tipping the guy who mows his lawn the kid who mows his lawn hundred bucks and wandered around town everybody knows him but he’d come home and unlike a lot of these guys he was he was a real you know a real. [50:36] Real bastard to his wife you know and for years she put up with this sort of abuse and finally after this this happened and it was in the news and all he finally pushed her too far and she began informing on him and and he was arrested later on he was in his jail cell talking about all the murders he had committed and and this and that about his wife and uh his his uh uh A cellmate repeated everything that he said to try and lessen his sentence. So really, Toco got buried by his big mouth and his terrible behavior. He initially fled to Greece before he was arrested, and they extradited him back from Greece. So this is, I mean, Toco is like deep in mob behavior. [51:22] I mean, fleeing the country and all. I mean, it doesn’t get much more mafia than Al Toco. I hesitate to use that word with Chicago, but that was, Al Toco was running deep. and that Betty Tocco’s testimony eventually led to the trial of Al Tocco. And that was really a blow to the Chicago Heights crew that nowadays, I mean, they continued on and had a few rackets, but after the eventual trial that stemmed from that, it really wasn’t, there’s not much activity now. I’m in that area and there’s just, there’s really nothing here. [51:59] Interesting. Now, so Tony and Michael Spilotro had been lured to somebody’s house on the promise that Michael was going to be made. It’s my understanding. I believe that’s what Frank Collada had reported. And some other people, not part of the Chicago Heights crew, killed him. How did that go down? And how did they pass off the body? You guys, is there anything out there about that? Wasn’t that the family secrets trial, maybe? It was. And, of course, it’s been popularly portrayed in the movie Casino. And it’s surprisingly accurate Except for the fact That where they were beaten But what happened was Little Jimmy Marcello called them. [52:41] And said Sam, meaning Sam Carlisi, the boss, wanted to see them. And they knew that that was ominous because of what was going on beyond the scope of this show. But they took off the jewelry. They left. They told their wives, if we’re not back by 930, it’s not good. They really did not suspect that it was to make Michael. That’s what Collada said. You’re absolutely right about that, Gary. But I don’t think that’s correct at all. They knew that it was bad. And they went. He took a pistol, which was against the rules. They hit him a pistol. Tony hit a pistol on his brother, which you do not do when you go to see the boss. And they were picked up by, by Marcello and taken to a house. I, uh, was it Bensonville? Yeah. Up in Bensonville. Uh, in, in the basement, they walked down the stairs and all of a sudden they looked into the eyes of Carlici and, uh, DeFranzo and everybody, the whole, all the couples were there to spread the, the, uh, liability around and they were beaten to death with, with fists and feet, uh, in, in that basement and then transported to that burial ground, which coincidentally was just maybe a couple hundred yards away from Joey Aupa’s farm. [54:00] Right. So I guess that they must have had, uh, Toco standing by, because I don’t believe he was in that basement. I like that. He must have had him standing by to go grab the bodies and take them out. Really interesting. He should have had the old Doug before he got there. You know, that’s what they always say. First you dig the hole then you go do the murder right and i don’t think he had it done before he got there yeah i don’t i really that’s a good that’s a good point gary i really don’t know and nobody’s ever come forward to say what the status of the hole was beforehand uh you know it was a deep it was a deep it was it was a pretty deep hole uh but they may have had a dug ahead of Tom, but, but, uh, cause they knew the location and it’s pretty obscure location. So they had clearly been there before. And, and, you know, everybody knew that that was, I, I hope was, I got it right. Farm. And, uh, So they may have had it dug, and they just did a shoddy job covering it up. [55:05] But I also haven’t heard the specific details about how they handed it off to Toco. I don’t recall seeing that in Calabrese’s testimony. Yeah, it was Nick Calabrese that testified about that. It brought up the light. He named the killer. So he may not have gone that far, probably having Toco and having his wife testify that he did do this. that she picked him up out there. It was just a piece of the entire prosecution on the spot, which it really never was a trial or anything on that. I don’t believe. Another odd thing is he, I believe he ranted and raved the entire car ride back. And from where he was, you would run up with, It’s now turns into Indianapolis. So it’s a good car ride from where they were to Chicago Heights. I believe he ranted and raved about the guys and his crew and the burial and everything, the entire car ride, which was not something most guys would do in front of their wives. But I really, especially when he treated like that. Right. And complained about how long it took her to get there and everything. So she was able to verify a lot of what Calabrese was saying from the final end of it. Interesting. A friend of mine was in the penitentiary, and he said, there’s a guy in there who called himself a verifier. He said, what do you mean? He said, I’m a professional verifier. What he was, he was an informant. That’s what he was, but he called himself a verifier. [56:33] A girl would come to him and say, well, I heard this, this, and this. Is that true or not? He’d say, well, that’s true. That’s not true. [56:40] I guess that’s a more preferable term. Yeah, she was a verifier. Well, that was great. I really appreciate having that on there and Paul. And I really, I still miss Cam. Every time I get ready to do a Chicago show, I think, oh, I want to get Cam or Rochester. [56:58] We did one about Rochester. We did one about Utica. I did several other shows about other families. And he was a good guy and a real great researcher and a real expert on the outfit and other mafia families. So rest in peace, Cam and Paul. I hope to talk to you again one of these days. Guys, don’t forget, I got stuff to sell out there. Just go to my website or just search on my name for Amazon. I can rent my movies about the skim in Las Vegas, about the big mob war between the Savella brothers and the Spiro brothers in Kansas City. Then one about the great 1946 ballot theft in which the mob… Rigged election, helped Harry Truman rig an election. It’s a little harder to find than mine. You need to put ballot theft and Gary Jenkins. I think you’ll find it then. The other two, Gangland Wire and Brothers Against Brothers, Sabella Spiro, were a little bit easier to find. Had to put it up a different way because Amazon changed the rules, but I got them up there. So thanks a lot, guys.

®«Non si può combattere seriamente la mafia se non c'è l'impegno generale dello Stato, senza delegare sistematicamente, caricare di aspettative una sola persona o solo un intero organo», diceva Paolo Borsellino in un'intervista alla RSI del 1987. Cinque anni dopo, il 19 luglio del 1992, a Palermo in via D'Amelio una Fiat 126 imbottita di tritolo viene fatta esplodere sotto la casa di sua madre. Muore il magistrato, muoiono gli agenti di scorta Agostino Catalano, Emanuela Loi, Vincenzo Li Muli, Walter Eddie Cosina e Claudio Traina. In questa puntata di Laser incontriamo sua figlia, Fiammetta Borsellino, che è convinta, come il magistrato, che la lotta alla mafia debba partire dai giovani. A loro, in Italia e in Europa, lei racconta la storia di suo padre e la battaglia per la verità sulla strage di via D'Amelio dove c'è stato, secondo i giudici, «il più colossale depistaggio della storia d'Italia».Fiammetta Borsellino sarà ospite di un incontro organizzato dall'USI per le scuole ticinesi di quarta media e scuole superiori in programma giovedi 4 dicembre. Nel corso dell'incontro con gli studenti sarà proiettato il film Falcone e Bosellino, il fuoco della memoria. Ospite dell'incontro anche il prof.

Riina: chi ha ucciso Nino Agostino? (I Corleonesi - puntata 77)

Questo video analizza uno dei casi più oscuri della cronaca giudiziaria italiana: l'omicidio dell'agente Nino Agostino e di sua moglie Ida Castelluccio, avvenuto il 05/08/89. Il documentario esplora i legami tra la mafia, l'eversione nera e i servizi segreti deviati. Riassunto del Contenuto L'Eversione Nera e Gladio: Il video introduce la figura di Alberto Stefano Volo, legato a Gladio e alla destra eversiva, che avrebbe rivelato a Giovanni Falcone dettagli sull'omicidio Mattarella. Nino Agostino faceva parte della scorta che accompagnava Volo ai colloqui con Falcone. Le Indagini di Falcone: Falcone stava indagando sulla "pista nera" per l'omicidio Mattarella, ipotizzando saldature tra mafia, massoneria e neofascismo. Agostino, parallelamente al suo lavoro ufficiale, pare fosse impegnato nella ricerca di latitanti per conto dei servizi segreti. Il Fallito Attentato all'Addaura: Molti indizi suggeriscono che Nino Agostino avesse scoperto il borsone con il tritolo piazzato presso la villa di Falcone il 21/06/89. Lo stesso Falcone, ai funerali dell'agente, dichiarò: "Io a quel ragazzo gli devo la vita". La Faccia da Mostro: Vincenzo Agostino, padre di Nino, racconta di aver visto due uomini cercare il figlio prima dell'omicidio. Uno di questi aveva il volto deturpato (il misterioso personaggio noto come "Faccia da mostro", poi identificato come l'agente dei servizi Giovanni Aiello). L'Omicidio e il Depistaggio: Il 05/08/89, Nino e Ida (incinta) vengono trucidati a Villagrazia di Carini. Subito dopo il delitto, uomini dello Stato avrebbero sottratto documenti privati dall'armadio di Agostino. La polizia, guidata da Arnaldo La Barbera, tentò di accreditare una "pista passionale", rivelatasi poi un tentativo di depistaggio. Il Libro Mastro di Madonia: Il video si conclude menzionando l'arresto di Antonino Madonia, boss dell'Acquasanta, trovato in un appartamento in via Mariano D'Amelio con una lista di estorsioni. Madonia è stato successivamente condannato per l'omicidio Agostino.

«Non si può combattere seriamente la mafia se non c'è l'impegno generale dello Stato, senza delegare sistematicamente, caricare di aspettative una sola persona o solo un intero organo», diceva Paolo Borsellino in un'intervista alla RSI del 1987. Cinque anni dopo, il 19 luglio del 1992, a Palermo in via D'Amelio una Fiat 126 imbottita di tritolo viene fatta esplodere sotto la casa di sua madre. Muore il magistrato, muoiono gli agenti di scorta Agostino Catalano, Emanuela Loi, Vincenzo Li Muli, Walter Eddie Cosina e Claudio Traina. In questa puntata di Laser incontriamo sua figlia, Fiammetta Borsellino, che è convinta, come il magistrato, che la lotta alla mafia debba partire dai giovani. A loro, in Italia e in Europa, lei racconta la storia di suo padre e la battaglia per la verità sulla strage di via D'Amelio dove c'è stato, secondo i giudici, «il più colossale depistaggio della storia d'Italia».Fiammetta Borsellino sarà ospite di un incontro organizzato dall'USI per le scuole ticinesi di quarta media e scuole superiori in programma giovedi 4 dicembre. Nel corso dell'incontro con gli studenti sarà proiettato il film Falcone e Bosellino, il fuoco della memoria. Ospite dell'incontro anche il prof. Costantino Visconti, titolare della cattedra di diritto penale all'Università di Palermo.undefined

Tutti gli incontri sono a ingresso libero fino a esaurimento posti.«Questa manifestazione, nata dall'idea di promuovere e riscoprire la scrittura manuale, in un'epoca dominata dalla tecnologia digitale, si propone di sensibilizzare il pubblico sull'importanza di preservare questa competenza, spesso sottovalutata. La scrittura a mano, infatti, non è solo un gesto quotidiano, ma anche uno strumento di comunicazione molto più profondo e personale, capace di rivelare aspetti nascosti della persona e delle emozioni di chi scrive. Attraverso incontri, workshop, laboratori e spettacoli, il Festival mira a divulgare il valore della grafologia, una disciplina che permette di interpretare lo scrivente e il suo stato d'animo attraverso il modo di scrivere.» dichiara Guglielmo Incerti Caselli, presidente nazionale di A.G.I.Venerdì 19 settembre, il festival inaugura alle ore 21 al Teatro di Villa Aldrovandi Mazzacorati, con Note di Mistero. Un viaggio attraverso le colonne sonore di film gialli e polizieschi passando dall'analisi delle scritture dei grandi compositori che le hanno rese indimenticabili come Ennio Morricone, Fabio Frizzi, Nicola Piovani, Stelvio Cipriani e Piero Umiliani. L'analisi grafologica è affidata all'esperta grafologa Roberta Raimondi, mentre l'esecuzione dei brani vedrà sul palcoscenico del teatro, un prezioso gioiello settecentesco, unico in Italia per la sua acustica, gli allievi di Musica Applicata e Musica per Film del Conservatorio G. B. Martini di Bologna.Sabato 20 settembre, all'Auditorium Enzo Biagi della Biblioteca Salaborsa, la giornata si apre alle ore 9.30 con i saluti istituzionali e un breve intervento dell'on. Monica Ciaburro, prima firma per il disegno di legge per l'istituzione della “Settimana Nazionale della Scrittura a Mano”.Seguirà il primo incontro dal titolo Panoramica criminologica e grafologica sulla figura di Pietro Pacciani attraverso l'analisi di suo materiale cartaceo vergato a mano. Ne parleranno Marco Monzani, Direttore di SCRIVI – Centro Universitario di Studi e Ricerche in Scienze Criminologiche e Vittimologia, docente di Psicologia giuridica, Vittimologia, Scienze criminologiche e vittimologiche e Storia del pensiero criminolo- gico, Istituto Universitario IUSVE di Venezia e Verona e Roberto Taddeo, autore di MDF La storia del Mostro di Firenze (Mimesis, 2023), curatore de Il labirinto del Mostro di Firenze (Mimesis, 2025), direttore della collana Le notti della Repubblica (Mimesis) e consulente della Commissione parlamentare sui fatti del Forteto, una serie di casi di molestie sessuali e pedofilia accaduti all'interno dell'omonima comunità. La grafologa Alessandra Cervellati analizzerà le grafie di Pacciani e degli altri protagonisti del caso.Alle 11 nell'incontro Era mio figlio e voleva uccidermi, il pubblico ascolterà dalla viva voce di Monica Marchioni la testimonianza di una madre che ha vissuto una tragedia ai confini dell'immaginabile, raccolta per la prima volta dalla giornalista e criminologa Cristina Battista, in un libro dall'omonimo titolo pubblicato da Minerva. Monica Marchioni, in dialogo con Battista ripercorrerà le tappe dell'evento delittuoso, il prima e il dopo di quella terribile notte in cui il proprio figlio, Alessandro Leon, cercò di assassinarla con un piatto di penne al salmone, cercando di rispondere all'interrogativo: come si può sopravvivere ad una ferita così profonda?Alle 12.15 appuntamento con Unabomber ti scrivo con Fabio Poletti. Poletti ha una lunga carriera giornalistica alle spalle: dagli esordi a Radio Popolare al quotidiano La Stampa dove per moltissimi anni ha scritto di politica, cronaca e vicende umane. Oggi collabora con NuoveRadici.World e con la Fondazione Gariwo, per cui è coautore del libro Vita e libertà contro il fondamentalismo, (Mimesis). Poletti racconterà della sua corrispondenza personale con Theodore John Kaczynski, detto Ted, il famigerato UNABOMBER americano. Fabio Poletti è uno dei 5 giornalisti al mondo ad aver intessuto una corrispondenza con lui. La grafologa Iride Conficoni aiuterà a comprendere alcuni aspetti della figura di questo efferato criminale analizzandone la grafia.Alle 15.00 Lettere anonime… o no? Nella scrittura anonima l'autore tenta di spogliarsi delle proprie abitudini grafiche per non farsi riconoscere, ricorrendo alle strategie più varie: dallo scrivere con la mano opposta, all'utilizzo dello stampato, che – rispetto allo stile corsivo – è generalmente povero di elementi individualizzanti che ne permettono il riconoscimento. Ma è proprio così? Ce lo sveleranno alcuni grafologi forensi: Eleonora Gaudenzi, criminalista esperta in grafologia forense, collaboratrice del Dipartimento Peritale di AGI e referente istituzionale Ministero di Giustizia per AGI; Patrizia Pavan, criminalista esperta in grafologia forense e firme biometriche, coordinatrice e responsabile della formazione del Dipartimento Peritale A.G.I., docente al Laboratorio di Grafologia Forense nel Corso di Licenza/Laurea Magistrale in Psicologia clinico-giuridica presso IUSVE a Verona e Salvatore Musio, criminalista certificato in grafologia forense e F.E.A., in analisi della scena del crimine, in dattiloscopia e in antropometria e tratti somatici. Nell'incontro, moderato dalla grafologa Valeria Angelini, responsabile Relazioni Istituzionali AGI, si prenderanno in esame alcuni casi di lettere anonime che gli esperti e le esperte hanno affrontato nel corso della loro carriera.Alle 16.30 Fabio Trizzino, avvocato dei figli del giudice Borsellino e patrono della parte civile nel processo Borsellino quater sarà protagonista dell'incontro Il particolare contributo della scienza grafologica nell'ambito del processo sul depistaggio della strage di via D'Amelio.

Alfio Caruso"Incursori del re"La vera storia della X Mas.Neri Pozza Editorewww.neriopozza.itC'è un prima e c'è un dopo, nella storia della X flottiglia Mas della Regia Marina Italiana, e lo spartiacque è l'8 settembre 1943, quando il comandante Junio Valerio Borghese raduna i suoi incursori e annuncia di volersi schierare al fianco della Repubblica sociale e dei nazisti. Lo seguiranno in pochi, macchiando però per sempre quella che era stata fino ad allora una gloriosa storia militare, una storia di lealtà e coraggio, di patriottismo, disciplina ed eroismo. Prima di tutto questo, a cavalcioni dei celebri «maiali», e a differenza di tanti ammiragli, che nonostante le corazzate di cui disponevano non sfidarono mai gli inglesi in battaglia, gli uomini della X Mas assaltarono per tre anni le due principali roccheforti nemiche nel Mediterraneo, Gibilterra e Alessandria, e s'immolarono a Malta proprio per supplire alle deficienze della Marina. Le piccole storie private di ciascuno di loro svelano che ne avrebbero fatto volentieri a meno. Lontani da ogni ideologia (i fascisti erano una minuscola minoranza), intrisi di sincero patriottismo risorgimentale, si batterono in una guerra che sapevano già di perdere. Trentun medaglie d'oro raccontano il loro comportamento meglio di tante parole. Paradossalmente furono gli inglesi i cantori delle imprese della X flottiglia Mas. Lionel Crabb, leggendario agente dell'MI6, numero uno dei sub britannici e responsabile della squadra anti-incursori di Gibilterra, onorava i caduti italiani lanciando in mare corone di fiori, e dopo l'armistizio dell'8 settembre '43, andò a cercare i vecchi nemici per arruolarli nella guerra contro i nazifascisti. Da de la Penne a Straulino, da Birindelli a Forza, l'ultimo comandante della X, in tanti accorsero all'appello della nuova Italia, e stavolta a saltare per aria furono i navigli tedeschi a Genova, a La Spezia, a Imperia. Il modo migliore di ripristinare il prestigio di un reparto infangato da Borghese e dai suoi marò.Alfio Caruso (Catania, 1950), giornalista e scrittore, dopo quattro romanzi si è dedicato alla storia italiana del Ventesimo secolo. Ne ha narrato l'escalation mafiosa (Da Cosa nasce Cosa, Perché non possiamo non dirci mafiosi, Io che da morto vi parlo, Milano ordina: uccidete Borsellino), l'abbondanza di misteri (Il lungo intrigo) e i piú importanti episodi della Seconda guerra mondiale (Arrivano i nostri, In cerca di una Patria, Noi moriamo a Stalingrado).

CAMPOBELLO DI MAZARA (TRAPANI) (ITALPRESS) - "Certamente la missione della Fondazione Federico II vuole essere quella di portare la gente a capire quali siano veramente le strade da seguire e questo è il nostro claim. Purtroppo la Sicilia è conosciuta per essere la terra di Riina, Provenzano, Matteo Messina Denaro, invece noi riteniamo che la Sicilia sia differente, sia la Sicilia di Falcone, Borsellino, Boris Giuliano, Carlo Alberto della Chiesa. Allora abbiamo voluto intraprendere questo percorso all'interno delle nove province siciliane e adesso devo dire che a macchia d'olio oggettivamente sembra che stia attecchendo sempre di più una voglia di riscatto di quella Sicilia assolutamente differente dagli stereotipi a cui ci associano". Così Gaetano Galvagno, presidente dell'Ars e della Fondazione Federico II, a margine della cerimonia di inaugurazione nel comune di Campobello di Mazara, nel trapanese, di un murale in memoria dei giudici Giovanni Falcone e Paolo Borsellino, nell'ambito del progetto "Le Strade da Seguire...", ideato e portato avanti proprio dalla Fondazione Federico II. Uno dei tanti già realizzati e sono decine le opere pronte a essere realizzate da est a ovest, da sud a nord dell'Isola. Il murale è stato collocato in via Vittorio Emanuele II, a pochi passi dal covo in cui ha trascorso gli ultimi anni di latitanza il boss Matteo Messina Denaro, prima di essere catturato dai Carabinieri del ROS il 16 gennaio 2023. xa3/vbo/gtr

CAMPOBELLO DI MAZARA (TRAPANI) (ITALPRESS) - "Certamente la missione della Fondazione Federico II vuole essere quella di portare la gente a capire quali siano veramente le strade da seguire e questo è il nostro claim. Purtroppo la Sicilia è conosciuta per essere la terra di Riina, Provenzano, Matteo Messina Denaro, invece noi riteniamo che la Sicilia sia differente, sia la Sicilia di Falcone, Borsellino, Boris Giuliano, Carlo Alberto della Chiesa. Allora abbiamo voluto intraprendere questo percorso all'interno delle nove province siciliane e adesso devo dire che a macchia d'olio oggettivamente sembra che stia attecchendo sempre di più una voglia di riscatto di quella Sicilia assolutamente differente dagli stereotipi a cui ci associano". Così Gaetano Galvagno, presidente dell'Ars e della Fondazione Federico II, a margine della cerimonia di inaugurazione nel comune di Campobello di Mazara, nel trapanese, di un murale in memoria dei giudici Giovanni Falcone e Paolo Borsellino, nell'ambito del progetto "Le Strade da Seguire...", ideato e portato avanti proprio dalla Fondazione Federico II. Uno dei tanti già realizzati e sono decine le opere pronte a essere realizzate da est a ovest, da sud a nord dell'Isola. Il murale è stato collocato in via Vittorio Emanuele II, a pochi passi dal covo in cui ha trascorso gli ultimi anni di latitanza il boss Matteo Messina Denaro, prima di essere catturato dai Carabinieri del ROS il 16 gennaio 2023. xa3/vbo/gtr

La trattativa Stato-Mafia: il patto segreto che pose fine alle stragi di Cosa Nostra

La trattativa Stato-mafia è uno dei capitoli più controversi della storia italiana. Si tratterebbe di un presunto patto segreto tra esponenti delle istituzioni e Cosa Nostra per mettere fine alla stagione delle stragi del 1992-1993. Difatti, dopo il Maxiprocesso e dopo le condanne ai boss mafiosi, la reazione di Cosa Nostra fu brutale: gli omicidi di Giovanni Falcone e Paolo Borsellino segnarono il definitivo punto di svolta. Da quel momento, secondo le indagini, uomini dello Stato avrebbero cercato un compromesso per fermare le stragi in cambio di condizioni detentive più morbide per i mafiosi, ridiscutendo l'applicazione del 41 bis. A rivelarne l'esistenza sono stati collaboratori di giustizia, intercettazioni e documenti processuali, fino alla sentenza del 2018 che ne ha certificato la realtà. Ma chi fu a condurre davvero questa trattativa? E quali conseguenze ha avuto sulla politica e sulla società italiana?

Salvatore Riina è ormai il capo indiscusso di Cosa Nostra ma i problemi da risolvere sono molti, bisogna guadagnare i piccioli, riciclarli, evitare il reato di associazione a delinquere di stampo mafioso e tutelare il sitema. Dall'altra parte della barricata Rocco Chinnici ha anche lui una marea di problemi, certo combattere la mafia ma anche guardarsi le spalle da quello che avviene all'interno del palazzo di Giustizia. La creazione di pool antimafia con Falcone e Borsellino è un primo passo per tutelare magistrati e poliziotti dal potere mafioso.

Andrea Valente, Lucia Scuderi"La foresta che cresce"Edizioni Lapiswww.edizionilapis.itDall'ippocastano di Anne Frank ai cipressi di Michelangelo, fino al ficus di Falcone e Borsellino: una suggestiva “foresta” tutta da esplorare, grazie ai racconti di Andrea Valente con le illustrazioni di Lucia Scuderi. 16 alberi, uno per ogni capitolo, con illustrazioni a piena pagina. A ogni albero è dedicato un racconto che ne narra la storia. Sono differenti per tipologia e si trovano in punti diversi del pianeta. Alcuni ci sono ancora, altri non più, ma a volte i loro semi sono stati piantati e oggi ci sono innumerevoli fratelli di quel capostipite che ha emozionato, ispirato, o tenuto compagnia a personaggi importanti. Al centro di questi racconti che attraversano le epoche e i luoghi, c'è sempre il rapporto tra un albero e un essere umano.Gli alberi attraversano secoli, a volte millenni. Fra tutti gli esseri viventi, nelle loro numerose specie e varietà, sono veri e propri testimoni del tempo, di eventi importanti per noi umani o per il pianeta. Fonte d'ispirazione per artisti e musicisti, simbolo di pace e di lotte civili per la giustizia, gli alberi sono esseri viventi di cui prendersi cura e da preservare. In queste storie la natura non è solo lo scenario in cui si succedono fortunate o sfortunate vicende, ma diventa protagonista della Storia, in dialogo con la nostra specie. Le radici degli alberi sono nel nostro passato, le fronde parlano al cielo. Andrea Valente ne ha ascoltato i segreti, coltivando una foresta ideale che, dopo tanti anni, ancora oggi cresce e ha qualcosa da raccontarci.Andrea ValenteAutore e illustratore, Andrea Valente scrive e illustra testi ironici e umoristici.

Dario Levantino"Il giudice e il bambino"Fazi Editorewww.fazieditore.itGiunto in paradiso, Paolo Borsellino viene incaricato da Dio di risolvere casi particolari e delicati. Per un periodo, si occuperà di quelle anime che, per motivi diversi, hanno lasciato qualcosa di irrisolto sulla Terra. Un giorno, però, sulla scrivania del suo ufficio finisce il faldone di un caso inspiegabilmente rifiutato da tutti gli altri funzionari in cielo. Non appena Borsellino legge il contenuto della cartella, ha come un mancamento. Quell'anima, infatti, appartiene a un bambino. E quel bambino è Giuseppe Di Matteo, ucciso dalla mafia nel gennaio del 1996. Da qui ha inizio una storia delicata e toccante, dai toni favolistici, che ricostruisce le vicende del giudice e del ragazzino: un viaggio tra le nuvole pieno di emozioni e avventure alla ricerca della serenità necessaria per andare avanti e di una ragione che possa spiegare tanta violenza. In questo cammino a due, particolarmente coinvolgente sarà l'incontro tra il bambino e il suo cavallo che si ricongiungeranno nell'aldilà proprio grazie all'aiuto di Borsellino, e avranno modo così di salutarsi per l'ultima volta prima di dirsi addio e separarsi per sempre. Un incontro decisivo che darà la possibilità al piccolo di riconciliarsi con il mondo e ritrovare finalmente la pace perduta prima di congedarsi dall'amico giudice e prendere finalmente il proprio posto in cielo.Dopo Il cane di Falcone, Dario Levantino torna in libreria con un romanzo emozionante e mai scontato che ripercorre le vicende di Paolo Borsellino e del piccolo Giuseppe Di Matteo, ucciso dalla mafia a soli quindici anni dopo due di prigionia durissima e insensata.Un testo adatto ai ragazzi che illustra in modo chiaro, con un tono impegnato ma insieme leggero, gli anni che hanno caratterizzato la lotta alla mafia e le dinamiche interne all'organizzazione di Cosa nostra, nella speranza che un mondo migliore sia sempre possibile e che alla fine trionfi sempre il bene.Dario LevantinoÈ nato a Palermo nel 1986. Laureato in Lettere e filosofia, insegna italiano in un liceo di Monza. Il suo esordio, Di niente e di nessuno (Fazi Editore, 2018), ha vinto il Premio Biblioteche di Roma 2018, il Premio Letterario Subiaco Città del Libro 2018, il Premio Leggo QuINDI Sono 2019 ed è stato tradotto in Francia con il plauso della critica.

On sait qu'en Sicile, la mafia locale, baptisée "Cosa Nostra", demeure très puissante. Elle profite de la peur qu'elle inspire pour obliger les commerçants et les entrepreneurs à lui verser un "pizzo".En échange, la mafia leur garantit sa "protection". Mais ce "pizzo" n'est pas seulement une sorte de taxe. Sous ce terme générique, se glissent souvent des paiements en nature. Ainsi, les membres de la mafia se servent gratuitement dans les boutiques soumises au "pizzo", ou peuvent obliger le commerçant à faire appel à tel ou tel fournisseur.Pour certains Siciliens, la coupe était pleine. Ils ont donc décidé de refuser de payer le "pizzo".Ils ont donc fondé, en 2004, une association dont le nom était tout un programme.

On sait qu'en Sicile, la mafia locale, baptisée "Cosa Nostra", demeure très puissante. Elle profite de la peur qu'elle inspire pour obliger les commerçants et les entrepreneurs à lui verser un "pizzo". En échange, la mafia leur garantit sa "protection". Mais ce "pizzo" n'est pas seulement une sorte de taxe. Sous ce terme générique, se glissent souvent des paiements en nature. Ainsi, les membres de la mafia se servent gratuitement dans les boutiques soumises au "pizzo", ou peuvent obliger le commerçant à faire appel à tel ou tel fournisseur. Pour certains Siciliens, la coupe était pleine. Ils ont donc décidé de refuser de payer le "pizzo". Ils ont donc fondé, en 2004, une association dont le nom était tout un programme. Elle s'appelle en effet "Addiopizzo", autrement dit "adieu au pizzo". Ses membres se sont mis à coller des stickers "addiopizzo" un peu partout sur les murs de Palerme.
