"L'alba dei leoni" di Stefania AuciIl nome di Stefania Auci è legato alla saga dei Florio. Nei romanzi "I leoni di Sicilia", libro più venduto in Italia nel 2019, e poi "L'inverno dei leoni", aveva narrato la parabola della famiglia Florio, arrivata a Palermo dalla Calabria a cavallo fra il '700 e l'800. L'ascesa, il successo commerciale, le vicende personali e poi la caduta. Ora il romanzo "L'alba dei leoni" (Nord) racconta le vicende dei Florio prima del trasferimento in Sicilia. Siamo, dunque, fra il 1772 e il 1799 a Bagnara Calabra. Ci sono Vincenzo Florio, fabbro, e la moglie Rosa con i vari figli, fra cui c'è Francesco, considerato il ribelle perché non vuole fare lo stesso mestiere del padre. Viene rapito da una banda di briganti ed è costretto a stare con loro per diversi mesi. La vita di stenti, la violenza, la paura, ma sempre il costante desiderio di essere artefice del proprio destino. C'è poi il terremoto del 1783 che distrugge quasi completamente Bagnara, infine il focus si sposta su un altro personaggio, Paolo, che come il fratello Francesco non vuole fare il fabbro ma vorrebbe andare per mare. Sarà lui, insieme al fratello Ignazio, ad andare poi a Palermo, avviare l'aromateria e dare inizio alla storia imprenditoriale dei Florio. Questo è dunque un prequel de "I leoni di Sicilia", ma è soprattutto la storia di due ragazzi, Francesco e Paolo, che vogliono segnare il proprio destino, ribellandosi alle imposizioni del padre. Ed è anche la storia di tante donne che alla fine del '700 vivono una condizione di sottomissione e silenzio, in cui si inserisce qualche raro tentativo di indipendenza.

In this episode of Gangland Wire, Mafia Genealogist Justin Cascio joins Intelligence Unit detective Gary Jenkins to explore one of the most remarkable—and overlooked—figures of the Prohibition era: Pasqualina Albano Siniscalchi, the so-called Bootleg Queen of Springfield, Massachusetts. At the dawn of Prohibition in 1921, Pasqualina was a young widow living in Springfield's South End when she inherited her late husband's powerful bootlegging operation—one of the largest in western Massachusetts. Rather than step aside, she took control. Pasqualina ruled a crew of toughs and bootleggers, oversaw liquor distribution, and launched a relentless campaign of vengeance against rivals who challenged her authority. Newspapers dubbed her The Bootleg Queen, but her fight went far beyond rival gangs. She clashed with lawmakers, battled competing bootleggers, and even faced resistance from within her own family—all while operating in service of a secret society that would never fully accept her because she was a woman. Her story exposes the contradictions of organized crime: loyalty demanded without equality, power wielded without recognition. Cascio draws from years of meticulous research and family histories to bring Pasqualina's story to life, revealing her pivotal role in early Mafia expansion in New England and the hidden influence women could wield behind the scenes. His book, Pasqualina: The True Story of the Bootleg Queen of Springfield, challenges long-held assumptions about gender, power, and the Mafia during Prohibition. If you're interested in Prohibition-era crime, New England Mafia history, or the untold stories of women who shaped organized crime from the shadows, this episode is one you won't want to miss.

Transcript [0:00] Hey, all you wiretappers. Good to be back here in the studio of Gangland Wire. I’ve got on tap here a repeat guest. He’s been on before. I had a little technical glitch this morning with the internet, and I had to scurry around and do something different. I totally forgot about what I was going to talk about with Justin, but I knew Justin’s been on there before. I knew he does mafia genealogy, and I knew he knows his stuff, and so he doesn’t really need a lot of help from me. So this is Justin Cascio from the website and some books, some mafia genealogies. Welcome, Justin. Thanks so much, Gary. Great to be here. Really. And you’re from the Springfield, Massachusetts area. And so that’s been some of your emphasis has been on that area. But you’ve done a lot of other mob genealogy, correct? Yes. On my website, on mafiagenealogy.com, I write about a whole lot of different places that the mafia has been in the United States. In fact, coming up, I’m going to be writing about Kansas City. But for the last 25 years or so, I’ve lived in New England. I live about 20 miles away from Springfield, Massachusetts, which if you’ve heard of Anthony Aralata or Bruno or the Shabelli brothers, then you know the Springfield crew of the Genovese crime family. [1:12] And I’ve been following them pretty closely since I’ve lived here. A few years ago, I got into the story of Pasqualina Albano, who was a bootlegger in Springfield during Prohibition. [1:25] That’s what my new book is about. Yeah. Oh, that’s a new book, right? I’m sorry. I didn’t pick up real quick there. And she’s done a documentary recently that hasn’t been seen by very many people. And they really, she was a woman. They do use the A at the end. Those of us that know about romance languages would know as probably a woman, but she’s a woman. And she was running a certain segment of bootlegging back during the 30s and late 20s, exactly when it was, which is really unusual. She must have been a powerful individual. I think that she was a very remarkable person, so I couldn’t find out enough about her. I really needed to understand how it was possible that somebody who the Mafia would never have accepted as a member allowed her to lead this crew for so long, even into the years when it was associated with Vito Genovese and that crime family. Yeah. Don’t you imagine it was, she must have been making money for them. [2:24] She was making money for her family, for sure. Got a few people probably pretty comfortable, yeah. [2:30] So that family, you went to a family reunion recently and learned quite a little bit. You want to tell your experiences about that? Yes. So, Pasqualea Albano, that bootlegger, has a nephew who is now 101 years old. His name is Mario Fiore. And when he turned 100, I was invited to his birthday party. And it was an enormous scene. It was tremendous. In fact, it’s a cliche, but the opening scene of The Godfather, if you imagine that wedding scene, it’s what it looks like. There’s a guy singing live on a PA system. There’s a pizza oven parked over here. There’s kids in the pool. There’s so many people, so much food, and this great big lawn and incredible view. Just an amazing scene to be at. And I met so many different people who were in Mario’s family. I met people who came over from Italy to come celebrate his birthday and talked with them as much as I could. I have no Italian, by the way. So we did the best we could. But I also talked to her American relative. She has all these grand nieces and nephews, and nieces and nephews who are still living, who were at this party and told me stories and drew little family trees for me. And what I was able to get a real good sense of is how the family feels about this legacy. Because not just Pasqualina, who was in organized crime, so many of her relatives were involved as well and continued to be up until the 80s, at least. [4:00] So the name, was it Albano? Was it got on in the modern times? The last name, was it still Albano? Was there another name? There are a few. Let’s see. I want some more modern names. There’s Mario Fiore. So he is one of her nephews. And then there’s Rex Cunningham Jr., who is one of her grandnephews. There’s the Sentinellos. So Jimmy Sentinello, who owns the Mardi Gras, or he did anyway. It’s a nude club, you know, a gentleman’s club, as they say. A gentleman’s club. We use that term loosely. Oh, boy, do we? Another old term that I picked up from the newspapers that I just love and like to bring back is sporting figure. Yeah, even sporting man. They don’t play sports. They’re not athletes. They’re sporting figures. I know. I heard that when I was a kid. Somebody was a sporting man. Yep. [4:57] This has been a family tradition. It’s something that has been passed down through the generations, and it’s something that I talk about in the book. But mostly what I’m focused on in the plot of the story is about Pasqualea’s time during Prohibition when this gang was turning into something bigger, turning into a part of this American mafia. Yeah. Interesting. And so tell us a little bit about how that developed. You had a Genovese family that moved in and she got hooked up with them. How did that develop? Yeah. More end of modern times. Early on, so 1920, beginning of Prohibition, Pasqualea Albana was newly married to this sporting figure, we’ll call him, Carlo Sinascocci. And I’m probably pronouncing that last name as wrong as well. He also came from a family of notable people who were involved in organized crime, getting into scrapes in Little Italy, New York City. There’s a whole separate side story about his cousins and all the things that they were getting into before Carlo even got on the scene. So by the time he arrived in New York City, he had a bit of a reputation preceding him because of these relatives of his. [6:06] And Pascalina was a young woman in Springfield. And the first question I even had writing about her is, how did she meet this guy? He was a Brooklyn saloon keeper. She was the daughter of a grocer in Springfield, three and a half hours away on the train. Like, why do they even know each other? And so trying to piece all that together, how that was reasonable for them to know one another and move in the same circles, and then for him to immediately, when he moved to Springfield, start picking up with vice because it was before Prohibition. So he was involved in gambling and police violence. And you could see some of the beginnings of the corruption already happening where he’s getting police protection before prohibition even begins. And then once it starts, he is the king of Water Street, which was the main drag of Little Italy. He was the guy you went to if you wanted to buy wholesale. [6:57] Justin, I have a question here. I was just discussing this with who’s half Italian, I guess, FBI agent that worked the mob here in Kansas City. We were talking about this, the prejudice that Italian people felt when they first got here, especially. And Bill’s about 90, and so he said his father told him. His father worked at a bank in New York, and he was told that with that last name, he had a different last name than Bill does. And with that last name, he said, you’re owning and go so high in the bank. And so talk a little bit about the prejudice that those early people felt. And that’s what drove people into the dark side, if you will, to make money. You had these bright guys that came over from Sicily looking for opportunity. And then us English and Irish Germans kept them out. [7:45] And so can you talk about that a little bit? Did they talk about any of that or have you looked into any of that? [7:52] I have. And it’s a theme that comes up again and again. Whenever I look at organized crime in any city, I’m seeing things like that ethnic succession of organized crime that you’re alluding to, how the Irish were controlling, say, the machine in Kansas City Hall or what have you. And they had that same kind of control over politics in other cities, too. And the way that they were getting a leg up and finally getting that first protection of their rackets was from outside of their ethnicity. It was Irish politicians protecting Italian criminals. And then eventually the Italians were getting naturalized where they were born here. And so then they move into politics themselves. [8:31] And that is one of the theories about how organized crime develops in American cities. It’s because you’re poor and ethnic and you’re closed out of other opportunities. And so the bright kids get channeled into organized crime where maybe in a better situation, they would have gone to college. Right. And then Prohibition came along, and there was such a huge amount of money that you can make in Prohibition. And it was illegal. That’s why you made money. But there was opportunity there for these young guys. Yes. And you really start to see a lot of new names in the papers after Prohibition begins. You have your established vice criminals who you’re already seeing in the newspapers through the 19-teens. Once Prohibition begins, now they have all these other guys getting into the game because there’s so much money there. And it’s such a big pie. Everybody feels like they can get a slice. [9:21] Yeah, interesting. Carry on. I’ve distracted you, Azai, but you were talking about Pasqualina and her husband. Of course, I’m not even going to try that. When you talk about discrimination against Italians, one of the things that makes my job really hard is trying to find news about a guy with a name like Carlos Siniscalchi. First of all, I’m probably saying it wrong. I think the Italian pronunciation is… So I’m getting all of the consonant clusters wrong, but I do it with my own name too. We’ve Americanized Cassio. That’s not the right name. How do you pronounce it? It’s Cassio. But we’re Cassio. That’s my grandfather said it. So how do I find Carlos Nescalci in the newspaper when every reporter mangles that name? And spells it differently. Yeah. Everybody spells it differently. How am I going to guess how all these different English speaking reporters were going to mess up Carlos’ name? And so I find it every which way. And sometimes I’ve just had to plain stumble over news about him and his relatives. It just happens by chance. I’m looking for general crime, and then I find him specifically. So yeah, it’s a little hard to find the Italians sometimes because their names are unfamiliar and they get written wrong in censuses and in the news. So we lose a little bit of their history that way. And that’s what you might call, I don’t know, a microaggression because they can’t get that name. Yeah, a little bit. Yeah, yeah. You don’t care enough to spell it. I just, I know the thought process, I have to admit. I’ll just spell it anyway. I understand that thought process. [10:51] So you were asking earlier, I don’t know if you want me to continue this, but how the Genovese family were able to get involved in this thing going on in Springfield. Yeah, connected. Because of her second husband. Okay. Pascalina lost her first husband in 1921. He was killed by a fellow bootlegger. He takes over the gang. She conducts a war of vengeance against the guy who kills her husband and his whole family because they’re gangsters. And that takes years. She’s also pursuing her through the courts. And when that all finally gets settled a few years later, she has a quiet little second marriage to a guy that nobody had ever heard of called Antonio Miranda. [11:28] Now, Antonio Miranda is a small time gangster from Little Italy, New York City, and his brother is Mike Miranda, who is very close to Vito Genovese, and he became this conciliator eventually. So that old connections, going back to the days before the Castello-Moraisi War, when it was Lucky Luciano bootlegging with some of his pals, that’s the time frame in which she formed this alliance by marrying Tony Miranda. And that’s when it starts. That’s the relationship’s beginning between Genovese crime family having, before it was even the Genovese crime family, when it was the Luciano family. And so they’ve had that relationship with the Springfield crew ever since. A little bit like old world feudalism in a way, where one member of a royal family marries a member of another royal family. And I know in Kansas City, we’ve got our underboss, his sister, is married to our boss’s nephew. So, bring those two families together, the Lunas and the Savellas together, yes, very well, like noble families. Exactly. Interesting. Absolutely. [12:31] So that’s how they got together. I remembered that, but I’d forgotten it. So, you went to this reunion with people from Sicily there. So, tell us a little bit about that. How? [12:43] How do people in Sicily view the people in the United States? And they didn’t talk about the mafia. I’m sure there’s no doubt that they’re not going to really talk about that unless you got to find somebody that’s really lucky. But kind of care about the sociological impact and the old world and the new world, and the new world people that, you know, established here. Okay, so Pasqualea and his family are from outside of Naples, and they maintain really close ties to their family back in Italy. Like I am the third generation born in America. I don’t speak Italian. Neither does my father. Neither of us has ever been to Italy. We don’t have, we’re not Italians. We’re Americans. Okay. And the Italians will remind you of that if you forget. We’re not Italian. And like spaghetti and meatballs, not Italian. Chicken Parmesan, not Italian. These are things that we invented here out of a sense of, out of homesickness and a sudden influx of middle-class wealth. We were like, let’s have the spaghetti and the meatballs. I had separate courses anymore where the meatballs are, where they’re both a special treat and I’m going to take two treats with chicken and waffles. [13:50] So being around them, they’re formal. You know, I was meeting like Pasquena’s relatives from Mercado San Sivarino, where they’re from in Italy, they own a funeral home. They own the biggest funeral home business in the town, and they also own some other sort of associated businesses, like a florist and things like that. So I would expect a certain sort of decorum and conservatism of tone from somebody who works in the funeral business and from Italy. But they were also among the only people there in suits, because it was a summer day, we’re outside. Most of us were dressed a little less formally. Yeah. Old school, 1950s stuff. He does those old 1950s photographs, and everybody, every man’s wearing a suit. And there were women’s hat on. Also, that ongoing thing where people in Europe just dress better. Yeah, they dress more formal. I see a little bit in New York City. I noticed it when I moved up from the South. In the South, you go to a funeral and flip-flops, okay? It’s very casual because the weather absolutely demands it. I moved that back up North, and I’m like, wow, everybody’s just wearing the same black coat, aren’t we? And you go into New York. People are dressed a little better, even. You go to Europe, and it’s just another level is what I hear. People, they dress better. They’re not like us where we would roll out of bed and put on pajama pants and some crocs and go to the grocery store. They would never do something. Yes. [15:10] I was in a restaurant several years ago, and there’s a guy sitting at a table, and another young guy comes in. And the guy at the table says, dude, you wore your pajama bottoms in the restaurant. [15:22] People need to be sold. And I’ll have to admit, at the time, I hadn’t seen that before. And since then, I see it all the time now. I live in a college town. I see it a lot. Yeah. So i’ll carry on a little more about that reunion there uh okay so how to describe this so much of it was very surreal to me just being in this place like very fancy house the longest driveway i’ve ever seen like more than a mile i finally like when i parked my car because the track you know you can the parked cars are starting i parked and i get out of the car. And I’ve got this big present with me that I’m going to give to Mario. It’s unwieldy. And I’m like, oh man, this is going to be quite a schlep. And I’m wearing my good shoes and everything. And these two young fellas come up on a golf cart and bring me a ride. So I get in the golf cart and we get up to the house and my friend Gina was trying to point people out to me. Oh, he’s somebody that was in my documentary and you got to talk to this guy. And there was a lot of that. you’ve got to talk to this guy and you’ve got to talk to this woman and dragging me around to meet people. And one of the groups of people that I was, that I found myself standing in, [16:35] I’m talking to gangsters this time. Okay. This is not cousins who won a funeral home. These are gangsters. And I’m standing with them and they’re having the absolute filthiest conversation that I’ve heard since high school. [16:48] And, but the difference is boys in high school are just talking. These guys have done all the things they’re talking about. Wow. What a life is. The lives you would have led. Bye. I’m just trying to keep it. Are these American gangsters or are these? Americans. Okay, yeah. Current gangsters, they’re in the Springfield area with Anthony Arilada there. They’ve all hated him, probably. I’m sorry? I said Anthony Arilada when he’s there, and they all hated him. You probably didn’t bring his name up. Yeah, really. There are different factions in Springfield, it feels like to me, still. bill. And I haven’t got them all sorted. There are people who are still very loyal to the old regime and they have their figure, their person that they follow. And sometimes they can live with the rest of them and sometimes the rest of them are a bunch of lowlives and they want everybody to know about it. Yeah. [17:45] I’ve heard that conversation before. Interesting. Now, whose house was this? Somebody made it well in America. Yes. And I think it was one of his nephews. I don’t know exactly whose house it was. I was invited by Gina’s brother. He texted me and invited me to the party. And people just accepted me right in. The close family members who have seen Gina’s documentary, who have heard her talk about Pastelina and the research and meeting me, they think of me as the family a genealogist. And so I have a title in the family and belong there. Oh yeah, it’s here to document us. As you do, because we’re an important family. And so they didn’t really question my presence there at all. And you were able to ask questions from that standpoint too. That’s what was nice. Yeah. [18:37] And a lot of times it was just standing still and listening because there was so much going on, That was enough. Interesting. Now, her documentary, you’ve seen it, so tell us a little bit about it. Folks, it’s not out there streaming yet. She’s trying to get something going, I would assume. [18:58] Explain her just a little bit, too, in her book. Talk about her and her book and her documentary. Yeah. Okay. Gina’s a part of this big family that has got some wealth still and goes back to bootleggers in Prohibition and has gangsters in it, including her brother, Rex Cunningham Jr. So Cunningham is the name you don’t expect to hear in the mafia. Yeah, yeah. Done by Marietta Beckerwood. I don’t know if he was a member or associate, but at any rate, he was a known figure around here. Sportsbook and that kind of thing. Sportsbook, yeah. Yeah. She grew up with a little bit of wealth and privilege, but also feeling a little bit outsider because her family was half Irish. So among the Italians, it was a, you go to the wrong church, you go to the wrong school kind of vibe. And she grew up into more of a countercultural person. Her family is very conservative politically, religiously. I don’t know if you would expect that of a gangster family, but that’s what I’ve noticed is pretty common, actually. No, it’s pretty, that’s the way it is here. Yeah, real conservative, yeah. Yeah. You have to be socially for the whole thing to work. I can get into that, but And they keep going to the same church and school and everything, and you maintain these close ties with the neighborhood and local businesses and so forth. But she really was like, I’m going my own way. And so she became this free spirit as a young woman. And Gina’s, I don’t know how old she is. I want to say in her late 60s, around 70, about there. [20:23] That’s Gina Albano Cunningham. Cunningham. Oh, Gina. Okay, Gina Cunningham. See, I’m getting mixed up with the names. And Cunningham was… Ask Elena Albanos. Her sister married and became a Fiore. Okay. All right. That’s a little bit confusing. People have to go to your website to get this straightened out. Or maybe you have this, a picture, an image of this family tree on your website. In the book, you can find multiple family trees because I’m working with all these different branches. I’ll take a look if I can’t put an image in here for everybody to get this straight. But the modern woman that did the book and the movie, she’s in her 70s now. [21:04] Yeah. Yeah, and she’s a grandniece of Pasqualina, and her brother and her cousins were in organized crime in this room. Okay, all right, all right. Go ahead, go ahead. She’s absolutely immersed in this life, but she did not want any part of it, and so she left. And there are other people in her family that you can point to that did the same thing, like some of Pasqualina’s children just did not want to have anything to do with the family. Well, they left. They went and moved to another state. They stayed in another place. They didn’t come back. And she did the same thing, but she’s not cut ties. She keeps coming back and she has good relationships with her family members, even though she’s not aligned with them politically and so forth. [21:42] And she’s an artist. I’ve seen her work on a couple of different mediums. I don’t want to really try and explain what her art is, but she’s a feminist artist. And she’s also really been pointing the camera at her family quite a bit. And it seems like film might be a newer medium for her. She’s used to do more painting and sculpture and stuff kind of thing. How’d the family take that? A lot of these people, I’ve talked to some relatives here, and one of them come on to talk to me, but I said, your Uncle Vince, he said, yeah, I know. But then he never would get back to me all of a sudden. So a lot of pressure to not say anything about it. Oh, yeah. Sometimes I will get started talking to somebody and then it’ll reach a certain point where they’re like oh no we can’t don’t be recording this don’t put my yeah anything so yeah news to that but gina was like no this is going to be part of my, political art. I’m going to point the camera at my family. I’m going to expose, some of the hypocrisy that I see there, the things I disagree with. [22:41] It’s a short documentary, and I find it very powerful because it’s a family video. One of the first people she’s aiming the camera at is, I think, one of her nieces. Talking to this young woman who is leaning on her car, maybe in her late teens, early 20s, and this young woman is saying, oh, yeah, I would marry a gangster if I had the chance. And I’m just like, do you not know your family? Do you not know the heart? And later on in the video, you get to hear some of the really just like gut wrenching stories of what pain people in her family have brought upon themselves through their involvement in organized crime and all the things that it entails. And this young woman is, I don’t know, she’s acting because she doesn’t even know this other uncle or this other cousin that she’s got that can tell her these stories. Or is it, I don’t know, it doesn’t matter or something. And that to me was shocking. That’s the kind of thing that needs, that’s somebody who needs their mind changed. And I was like, I hope she watches this video she’s in and changes her mind about how she feels about that life and wanting to be a part of it. But that’s what mafia culture creates more of, is people who want to be a part of that. [23:53] There’s a certain romance to it that started out with Robin Hood, if you will. You get a romance of the gangster, the criminal that maybe is good to some people, good to support people, good to their family. And it continues on to this day to John Gotti. He’s the most recent iteration of Robin Hood and Jesse James here in the Midwest. People love Jesse James. When I grew up, everybody, every family had a story about how a couple of guys came by their house back in the 1800s and they gave them a place to stay and a meal. And they left them like a $20 gold piece, which was like $500 or something. And they said, it was Jesse James. I know it was. It’s the romance of the gangster continues. Yes. We all would love to imagine that we’re on the gangster side and that the gangster agrees. Yeah. As long as we don’t have to go to jail or pay that price. Because to me, I’ve got a friend today that he spent about 12 years and he would give all that gangster life back to get that 12 years back for these kids growing up. He’s turned over a new life today. I had lunch with him and his son not too long ago. And it’s just his son has told him, he said, every time I had to walk away from you in the penitentiary and come back home after our visit, he said, I was just crushed. It’s a huge price to pay for that. But there’s still that romance continues. [25:13] That terrible price, I think, is part of what feeds the romance. If there was no risk, there wouldn’t be that allure. Yeah, that’s true. You met that risk and overcame it and went on, came out on top. It’s what they always like to claim that came out on top of it. So I understand that thought process. I take a lot of risk in my life just from the other side. I said, live to fight another day. Yeah, there really are different kinds of risks that you can take. I was writing about a contract killer in Texas, and one of his targets was a guy who was a grain dealer. And I was like, that’s a really weird target for murder, right? Like, why would you kill a grain dealer from rural Texas? And it was because his old partner had an insurance policy out on him and decided to cash in on it. That was Charles Harrison, wasn’t it? Yeah, yeah, exactly. Sad story. Charles Harrison. Yeah. It was like, these were two guys that took very different kinds of risks, right? You got Charles Harrelson, who kills people for money. That’s a certain kind of risk you’re definitely taking. And then there’s the guy who buys grain and then sells it. So he’s taking these risks for his community of farmers. [26:27] And I was like, that’s really wholesome. And that’s, I don’t know, I feel like it’s a really positive example of masculinity. That’s the kind of risk we’re supposed to take for the safety and well-being of our neighbors? Yeah. Even the farmers, they risk everything every year. Smaller farmer, I grew up in those families and a smaller farmer practically risk everything every year, being in on the weather. That’s why I didn’t stay on the farm. And the markets, you don’t know what the markets are going to do. It’s a gamble every year. That Charles Harrelson, that’s Woody Harrelson’s dad who killed the Judds, famous murder down in El Paso. And he had a business. He carried a card that said he was a hitman. It was his story. [27:10] Bold. He was a crazy bold dude. I did a whole three-part series on that whole Jimmy Chagra marijuana business [27:20] down there on the border. and his connection to it and the killing of Judge Wood. So it’s just a business in these guys. Hey, it’s not personal. It’s just business. Yikes. It’s crazy. But Justin, you got anything else you want to tell us about? Anything you’re working on? And remind guys your website and what you can find there. He has some really interesting stuff about the old early days in Chicago. I know that. I referred to some of that several years ago when I was doing something on Chicago. So give guys a little walk through on your website. It’s really interesting. Okay, so John Gotti is one name I don’t think you’re ever going to find on my website. Yeah, good. [27:59] I’m really addicted to origin stories. I like to find out how the Mafia was already present before that point when we say it started. Yeah, in the 20s. But gangsters don’t come out of nowhere. Gangs don’t come out of nowhere. They evolve. They grow. There are forces to create them. And so that’s what I’m interested in. I like to go around. And I spent a lot of my early career writing about one place and its effect on the United States, Corleone, where my family’s from in Sicily. And that was my first book, In Our Blood. And some of my first posts on mafia genealogy are in that thread. They’re about my family and the Corleonesi. But then I started to get into other [28:42] places and wanting to know about their stories and getting into other parts of Italy as well. So if you go to my website, you’re going to find stories like Charles Harrelson and the two guys that he killed before the judge, or in Chicago about the different little Italys that existed before Capone consolidated everything, or Kansas City I’m writing about, Nick Fatsuno and the Passantino brothers. I don’t even know if you know those guys, but I thought their further stories were amazing. [29:09] Passantino had a funeral home today, but the other names I don’t really know back then. I don’t know much about that or those early days. Did they seem to come from the same little town, the same general area? They didn’t, actually. A lot of them were Sicilian, and they come from Palermo province, but not all from the same town. Not from okay. Yeah. Yeah, I wasn’t able to put—there’s not a strong current there in Kansas City like I’ve found in other places where everybody is from one town. Yeah. [29:37] But not so much in Kansas City. A little more varied. Interesting. So that’s what you’ll find on my website. And then Pasqualina is my second book, and you can buy both of my books at Amazon. Got them behind me here, Airblood, Pasqualina. And Pasqualina is about that prohibition era, and if you like to understand where big-nosed Sam Koufari got his start, it’s in there. And the Shabelli brothers show up. It’s about those origins. I was talking to a friend of mine about this name, Skeeball or Skeebelly. Yes. Who had some relationship back in Springfield, and he just really knew Skeeball when he was young. [30:17] Yep, because it was the spelling of his name. I’m not even sure how they pronounced it. I think it’s Skeebelly. Skeebelly. That probably was. Yeah, Skeebelly. I know somebody named Skeebelly, so probably was. That’s like the name of the body shop here in Kansas City, and it’s P-A-C-E. But really it’s Pache. We’ve got to do it right. And that’s probably short for Pache. I don’t know. I wonder if the family pronounces it Pache or Pace. I think business-wise, but then the person who was talking was close to the family and they said, oh no, it’s Pache. So I thought, okay. [30:53] Interesting. The immigrant experience in this country is really always interesting. There’s always conflict and the interest is in the conflict. And as people try to make their way, and stopping with, oh God, it was an author, T.J. did the Westies. You guys know T.J. that did the Westies. And he said, yeah, he said, and he really was articulate about, as we’ve discussed this, that people come here want an opportunity, because they didn’t have any opportunity in the old country, whether it be Naples or southern Italy or Sicily. They came here, they really just wanted opportunity. And then the opportunity, you have to start fighting for opportunity. That’s the nature of the beast in this country. In any kind, any society, you’ve got to fight for opportunity when you’re an outsider and you come in. And so that was the early development. These people just wanting a little slice of this American pie that they’d heard so much about. The streets are paved with gold over here, but found out you’ve got to dig that old man. [31:52] Some people probably came over here thinking they were going to make an honest living and found themselves, by one step and another, involved in organized crime. And then there were other men who came here from Italy for whom the opportunity was to be a criminal here. Richer pickings. Yeah. And they started restaurants and had your typical immigrant, all the immigrant restaurants, all these Chinese, whatever kind of ethnic food is, they start out with an immigrant who then puts his kids and his cousins and his nephews and sisters and grandmas in the back room kitchen, start those restaurants. And people, us people that are already here like that food and they run them, they do a really good job at it. And so that’s a way to get started in grocery stores for their other fellow paisans. And those were the ways that they made it here, at least now, probably the same way in every city where there’s a large Italian population. Got to feed the other Italians. And so an Italian restaurant is natural. Yeah. And also owning your own business is just really smart for a lot of people. If you’re an organized crime, it’s a great way to hide what you’re doing. [32:59] And if you’re trying to get a naturalization status, especially now, being a business owner is really advantageous. Yeah, I bet. I was talking about that on getting a naturalization process that showed that you’re an entrepreneur and you believe in the system and you’re doing well. Yeah, interesting. [33:17] All right, Justin Cascio, and the website is Mafia Genealogy. He’s got a couple books on there in this documentary. I don’t know. Keep us up on that. Maybe if it comes out, I’ll make sure to get it out on something where people know that they can go out and see it. It sounds really interesting. Thanks, YOL. All right. Thanks, Justin. I’ll do that no more. Thank you, Justin. It’s really a pleasure to talk to you again. Always a pleasure being on your show. Thank you. Great. [33:44] Justin, see, I was going to ask you about something. What? Are you going through a publisher? You got a publisher? No, I’m self-published. You’re self-published? Okay. Yeah. See, I self-published several books, and I’m doing probably my last ones, a story of my life, kind of more of a memoir, my struggles and my moral dilemmas and all that during when I worked intelligence. And then I’ll explain all about the big civil mob war we had here during those years. And I don’t know. I started poking around. I thought, well, maybe I’ll try to get a regular publisher. But boy, it’s hard. You’ve got to get an agent. You can’t get attention of an agent because there’s hundreds and thousands of people out there writing books wanting to do all this. So thank God for Amazon. Yeah. I think if you already have your audience. Yeah. And you know who they are and you’re already talking to them. You don’t need to pay somebody else to do that for you. Yeah. Yeah. I’m paying an editor to go over to… That’s different. That’s no other strengths. But to get it sold out there. Out here making videos every day. The good thing about getting a publisher is you can get, and then you got a chance of getting it into Barnes & Noble and into libraries. [34:59] See, libraries. You might into libraries anyway. How’d you do that? How’d you figure that out? The local library has an interest in the book, so they bought it. Yeah, they did. But I’m talking about other libraries. Yeah, they can all buy the book the same way. Yeah, but how do they find the library buy books? [35:18] I think buy them from the publishers normally. And if your book is self-published and they want to carry that book, because, for instance, about local history, then they’ll buy it. Yeah. I’m thinking about how do they get it out in other New York or Chicago or some other city that will be looking for nonfiction books. Publishers. You have to do every step yourself instead of being massive. Yeah. And then like Barnes & Noble and places like that to get it in, that’s hard too. You can do that locally. Those places carry my books on the website. Who does? They’re buying it from Amazon. Oh, okay. Interesting. Oh, really? Yeah. Because that’s the only place you can get it. I think I sell a couple of my, I’ve seen some people from, I think it’s through at Brafta Digital, I think’s the name of it. That’s another thing that this thing went up on that Barnes & Noble did sell a few copies of it. As a matter of fact, now that you mention it. [36:21] But it’s interesting. It’s fun. How are you ever going to get a screenplay sold if you don’t get their attention? [36:30] That’s why most people I talk to, they’re trying to figure out how to get a movie made from their book. Gangsters ask me that question. They’re like, you figure I know the answer to how to get a movie made from YouTube? and I do not have that answer. Nobody knows that. It’s hard work. Yeah, I tell them nobody knows that, the answer. It’s God. A divine being that strikes you, whether it be the Apollo or the God of Abraham, or Jesus or some higher power reaches out and touches you and says, okay, I bless you, and now you’re going to have a movie made and Robert De Niro is going to play your part. Although anymore, they don’t want De Niro to play him because they hate him now, and they want somebody else. Oh, my God. It’s always a pleasure to talk to you, Justin. Likewise, Gary. Thanks so much. If I can do anything for you here in Kansas City, and as you’re going through your thing, if you’ve got any question or anything, I’ve got that one friend, that FBI agent, that he could maybe help you with if you’re looking for a connection or something. He knows quite a little bit. And somebody else was just talking about that, looking into that, those early days. But if you do have any questions or anything that you’re stumbled about here in Kansas City, be sure and give me a call, and I’ll see if I can’t steer you to somebody. I don’t know myself. I don’t really ever look at it. Okay. Okay. Stay safe. Thank you. You too.

®«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.Prima emissione: 2 dicembre 2025undefined

Questo video, la quarta parte dell'inchiesta sull'omicidio del Generale Carlo Alberto dalla Chiesa, analizza il periodo cruciale che va dai successi contro il terrorismo rosso fino al suo drammatico isolamento a Palermo. Il racconto mette in luce le ombre della Loggia P2 e le resistenze politiche che hanno segnato il destino del Generale, assassinato il 03/09/82 (formato richiesto gg/mm/aa). Riassunto del Contenuto Dalle BR alla Cascina Spiotta: Viene ripercorsa la lotta contro le Brigate Rosse e l'operazione del 05/06/75 che portò alla morte di Margherita "Mara" Cagol. Questo evento segnò l'apice del prestigio militare di Dalla Chiesa, ma anche l'inizio di una sovraesposizione pericolosa. Lo Scandalo della Loggia P2: Viene affrontato il tema spinoso della tessera n. 1751 della Loggia P2 intestata a Dalla Chiesa. Il video esplora la tesi secondo cui il Generale si fosse iscritto per "esigenze di servizio" e per monitorare la struttura, ma come questa appartenenza sia stata poi usata per colpirne la credibilità nel 1981. L'Isolamento Politico: Una volta nominato Prefetto di Palermo, Dalla Chiesa si scontra con il muro della politica siciliana e nazionale. Il video sottolinea l'ostilità della corrente andreottiana e la mancata concessione dei "poteri speciali" che il Generale riteneva indispensabili per combattere Cosa Nostra. L'Intervista a Giorgio Bocca: Viene analizzata la celebre intervista rilasciata poco prima della morte, in cui Dalla Chiesa denunciò apertamente il suo isolamento e la mancanza di sostegno da parte dello Stato, pronunciando la profetica frase: "Un carabiniere può essere ucciso, ma non può essere comprato".

"Da che parte stai?" di Emilio Pagani, Alessio Pasquini, Loris De Marco, da una storia di Pietro GrassoPietro Grasso, una vita dedicata alla lotta alla mafia: sostituto procuratore a Palermo (fu lui fra l'altro titolare dell'inchiesta sull'omicidio di Piersanti Mattarella), giudice a latere nel primo maxiprocesso a Cosa Nostra che durò 21 mesi fra l'86 e l'87, procuratore nazionale antimafia, collega ma soprattutto amico di Giovanni Falcone e Paolo Borsellino, del cui lavoro poi è diventato testimone. Oggi, fra l'altro, è fondatore e presidente della Fondazione Scintille di Futuro, che ha l'obiettivo di sviluppare progetti e percorsi di legalità nelle scuole.La vita di Pietro Grasso, quindi, è una costante testimonianza del suo impegno contro la mafia e a favore della legalità. Come accade anche nella graphic novel "Da che parte stai?" (Tunuè) di Emilio Pagani, Alessio Pasquini, Loris De Marco, da una storia di Pietro Grasso. Stavolta, forse più che negli altri libri, Pietro Grasso, ha scelto di raccontare una serie di vicessitudini dal punto di vista della sua famiglia (la moglie Maria e il figlio Maurilio) che ha sempre appoggiato e sostenuto le scelte di Grasso nel suo percorso di lotta alla mafia.

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ https://www.bastabugie.it/8393SALVINI ASSOLTO: RESTANO I DANNI DI UN PROCESSO POLITICO di Ruben Razzante L'assoluzione definitiva di Matteo Salvini nel processo Open Arms, sancita dalla Cassazione con il rigetto del ricorso della Procura di Palermo, chiude formalmente una delle vicende giudiziarie e politiche più controverse degli ultimi anni, ma lascia aperte molte domande sul rapporto tra giustizia e politica e sui danni, materiali e immateriali, che un'inchiesta può produrre anche quando si conclude con un nulla di fatto.Tutto inizia nell'estate del 2019, tra l'1 e il 20 agosto, quando la nave della Ong spagnola Open Arms soccorre migranti in acque libiche e chiede l'autorizzazione a sbarcare in Italia. Matteo Salvini è allora vicepremier e ministro dell'Interno del governo Lega-M5s e applica la linea dei porti chiusi già sperimentata nei mesi precedenti, ritenendo che la gestione degli sbarchi non possa essere lasciata alle Ong e che debba coinvolgere l'Unione europea.UNA VICENDA GROTTESCA DI USO POLITICO DELLA MAGISTRATURAIl divieto di sbarco non è una decisione solitaria: il 2 agosto 2019 viene firmato un decreto interministeriale anche dal ministro delle Infrastrutture Danilo Toninelli e dal ministro della Difesa Elisabetta Trenta, entrambi esponenti del Movimento 5 Stelle, mentre a Palazzo Chigi siede Giuseppe Conte. Nonostante ciò, la vicenda si trasforma rapidamente in un caso giudiziario. Il 19 novembre 2019 Salvini viene iscritto nel registro degli indagati con l'accusa di sequestro di persona aggravato, per aver impedito lo sbarco dei migranti, e da quel momento inizia un lungo calvario durato 2.220 giorni, con una spada di Damocle sulla testa e la richiesta finale, da parte della Procura, di sei anni di carcere.Nel frattempo il quadro politico cambia radicalmente: pochi giorni dopo il braccio di ferro su Open Arms cade il governo gialloverde, nasce l'esecutivo giallorosso e Giuseppe Conte diventa il punto di riferimento di una nuova maggioranza progressista. Il Movimento 5 Stelle, che al governo aveva sostenuto compatto la linea di Salvini sugli sbarchi, il 30 luglio 2020 vota in Senato a favore dell'autorizzazione a procedere contro il leader leghista, di fatto scaricando l'ex alleato. Conte e Toninelli prendono le distanze: il primo parla di una lettera inviata a Salvini per chiedere almeno lo sbarco dei minori, il secondo sostiene che Salvini volesse "monetizzare" politicamente la crisi avendo già deciso di far cadere il governo. Si arriva così al processo a Palermo, con tre anni di dibattimento, ventiquattro udienze in primo grado, oltre quarantacinque testimoni ascoltati, continui viaggi in Sicilia di un ex vicepremier sotto scorta, con costi pubblici rilevanti per la sicurezza e per l'intero apparato giudiziario.Il tribunale assolve Salvini perché il fatto non sussiste e la Cassazione conferma definitivamente l'assoluzione, chiudendo un procedimento che, dal punto di vista penale, si rivela infondato.IL TRACOLLO DELLA LEGAResta però il dato politico: dal 2019 a oggi la Lega è passata dal 34,3% delle elezioni europee all'8,97% delle ultime consultazioni europee e, se le cause di questo calo sono molteplici, è difficile negare che l'inchiesta Open Arms abbia rappresentato uno spartiacque nella parabola di Salvini, condizionandone l'azione politica, l'immagine pubblica e la capacità di incidere nel dibattito nazionale. Per sei anni Salvini è stato di fatto in ostaggio dei Pm, con un'accusa gravissima che si è dissolta solo al termine dell'iter giudiziario, mentre nel frattempo il danno politico, mediatico ed elettorale si è prodotto ed è ormai irreversibile. È qui che si innesta una riflessione più ampia e delicata: quando un'inchiesta appare fortemente politicizzata e interviene a gamba tesa su scelte che sono eminentemente politiche, il rischio per la democrazia è evidente.La magistratura svolge un ruolo fondamentale di garanzia, ma proprio per questo deve essere percepita come imparziale, distante da qualsiasi retropensiero ideologico, capace di applicare la legge senza trasformarsi in un attore del confronto politico. La fiducia dei cittadini nelle toghe è un pilastro dello Stato di diritto e si fonda sulla certezza che la libertà personale sia nelle mani di chi giudica secondo le norme e non secondo l'opportunità o l'appartenenza. Nel caso Open Arms, l'assoluzione definitiva pone una domanda che va oltre Salvini e la Lega: chi risarcisce sei anni di indagini, processi, tensioni istituzionali e danni politici? Chi paga per il tempo, le risorse pubbliche e il logoramento di un leader e di un partito poi riconosciuti innocenti? Sono interrogativi scomodi ma inevitabili, perché senza una riflessione seria su questi effetti collaterali il rischio è che la giustizia, anche quando arriva alla verità, lasci dietro di sé macerie che nessuna sentenza potrà mai riparare.

Sports journalist, Kavitha Davidson explores how bars once built for straight, white men evolved to include women, immigrants, and queer communities, creating a new sports culture. (This is a re-run of a popular Sportly episode.) What do beer-soaked bleachers, immigrant taverns, and feminist bar owners have in common? They all shaped the modern American sports bar. From Palermo's Tavern in St. Louis, often recognized as America's first sports bar, to The Sports Bra in Portland, the first bar dedicated entirely to women's sports, this episode traces how these spaces became America's unofficial living rooms.

In this episode of The Digital Executive, host Brian Thomas welcomes Frank Palermo, Chief Operating Officer of New Rocket, to discuss how AI, digital workflows, and enterprise transformation are converging to reshape business operations. With a career rooted in software engineering, enterprise platforms, cloud, and data, Frank shares how his bilingual fluency in technology and business helps organizations ground emerging tech in real business value.Frank explains why executives don't buy AI—they buy outcomes—and how reframing tech initiatives around measurable results like faster revenue, lower cost, and better customer experience is critical. He highlights the common gaps enterprises face, including fragmented processes and poor data foundations, and emphasizes that modernization starts with workflow understanding, not platforms.Looking ahead, Frank describes a future where AI becomes “invisible,” seamlessly orchestrating workflows, enhancing employee productivity, and enabling human–AI co-creation. High-performing enterprises, he argues, will be those that move quickly but responsibly—governing data, investing in skills, and treating AI transformation as an ongoing operational mindset.If you liked what you heard today, please leave us a review - Apple or Spotify.

«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

Questo episodio si concentra sui preparativi di Cosa Nostra, orchestrati da Totò Riina, per eliminare il Giudice Giovanni Falcone, in particolare in vista del fallito attentato all'Addaura del 1989.

Syrakusa – en ständigt omstridd stad. Sedan antiken har dess historia kantats av stora slag och episka belägringar. Imperier och tyranner har kommit och gått, men få perioder är lika dramatiska som den muslimska invasionen av Sicilien under 800-talet.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden samtalar idéhistorikern Peter Bennesved och historieprofessorn Martin Hårdstedt om Siciliens historia – med särskilt fokus på Syrakusas roll i kraftmätningen mellan den muslimska expansionen och det bysantinska imperiets nedgång.Invasionen av Sicilien inleddes år 827 och var en utdragen process som först avslutades 902. Belägringen och det slutgiltiga fallet av Syrakusa år 878 var en av de mest avgörande milstolparna i denna kampanj. Som en av Siciliens största och bäst befästa städer var Syrakusa också det viktigaste bysantinska fästet på ön.Syrakusa låg strategiskt placerad – både som västlig utpost i det bysantinska riket och som kontrollpunkt över handelslederna söderut och genom Messinasundet i öst. Dess fall signalerade inte bara en lokal förlust, utan också början på slutet för det grekisk-romerska inflytandet i västra Medelhavet.Efter Syrakusas fall följde Taorminas erövring år 902, vilket definitivt satte punkt för bysantinskt styre på Sicilien. Under de följande två århundradena kom istället Palermo att växa fram som det nya maktcentrumet på ön – ett tydligt tecken på den nya eran i Medelhavets historia.Bildtext: Miniatyren skildrar den arabiska erövringen av Syracuse år 878, ett centralt skeende i Medelhavets medeltida maktkamp.

photo by Colin Outridge. The exhibition Change of Scenery,  marks the painter's third solo show with the gallery. It is the culmination of a year's worth of travel across the U.S., as Brennan Hinton spent extended time in residency in Corsicana, TX, Martha's Vineyard, MA, and Fishers Island, NY. Brennan Hinton's practice focuses on the sustained act of observation, the plein-air discipline, and painting's ability to capture the essence of a place. The time spent in three distinctive towns, each in its own ways divergent from Brennan Hinton's familiar Ontario, required the artist to meet each place with open eyes and a fresh palette. To situate himself, Brennan Hinton leaned on two formative texts, Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry and Moby Dick by Herman Melville, which are each set in the same landscapes in which he painted. Keiran Brennan Hinton (b. 1992, Toronto) lives and works in Toronto and Elgin, Ontario. He received his BFA from Pratt Institute in 2014 and his MFA from Yale University in 2016. His work is held in the permanent collections of the Ogunquit Museum of Art, Ogunquit, ME and The Dennos Museum Center, Traverse City, MI. Past international solo shows of Brennan Hinton's work include exhibitions at MAKI Gallery, Tokyo, Japan (2022); Thomas Fuchs Gallery, Stuttgart, Germany (2021); Charles Moffett, New York, NY (2023, 2021); Nicholas Robert Gallery, Ontario (2022); and Francesco Pantaleone Gallery, Palermo, Italy (2019) among others. His paintings have been featured in institutional exhibitions at the Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto, Ontario; James Castle House, Boise, Idaho; and Katonah Museum of Art, Westchester, NY.

Il video analizza il progressivo isolamento e la delegittimazione di Giovanni Falcone negli anni immediatamente precedenti la sua morte, un periodo dominato dall'ascesa feroce di Totò Riina e dallo scandalo del cosiddetto "Corvo". L'Isolamento Professionale e la Morte Annunciata Dopo il successo del Maxi Processo, Giovanni Falcone torna nel mirino, non solo della Mafia ma anche di una parte dei suoi colleghi, che lo additano come un "protagonista" o "sceriffo" per invidia o per difendere uno status quo burocratico. Il primo colpo decisivo alla carriera di Falcone arriva nel gennaio 1988, quando il Consiglio Superiore della Magistratura (CSM) gli preferisce il magistrato tradizionalista Antonino Meli per la successione a Antonino Caponnetto alla guida dell'Ufficio Istruzione di Palermo. Paolo Borsellino ricorderà in un discorso che fu quello il momento in cui lo Stato e la magistratura cominciarono a far morire Falcone professionalmente, impantanando l'ufficio nella "solita gestione burocratica". La Guerra Sotterranea e il Caso Contorno La nomina di Domenico Sica ad Alto Commissario Antimafia nell'agosto 1988 segna l'inizio di una "guerra sotterranea" contro il pool antimafia. I rapporti con Falcone si fanno tesi: un episodio cruciale riguarda il tentativo di Sica di ottenere la collaborazione del boss Gaetano Badalamenti negli Stati Uniti prima che lo facesse Falcone, bruciando ogni possibilità di pentimento. Nel frattempo, il pentito Salvatore Contorno, determinante per le inchieste, si dichiara abbandonato dallo Stato italiano, lamentando di essere stato penalizzato con nuovi mandati di cattura strumentali che lo tenevano in carcere, al contrario di altri imputati. Il "Corvo" e l'Attentato dell'Addaura Sul finire degli anni Ottanta, Totò Riina – che Falcone aveva smascherato come l'autore di un "colpo di Stato" all'interno di Cosa Nostra (Operazione Iron Tower) – era al culmine del suo potere. Nel maggio-giugno 1989, una serie di missive anonime, attribuite al "Corvo" (un addetto ai lavori, forse un magistrato o un dirigente di polizia), accusa Falcone e il poliziotto Gianni De Gennaro di manipolare i pentiti e di aver permesso a Totuccio Contorno di tornare a Palermo per uccidere i nemici della sua famiglia, definendoli "Killer di Stato". L'obiettivo è delegittimare Falcone alla vigilia della sua nomina a procuratore aggiunto. L'attentato dinamitardo fallito contro Falcone nella sua villa estiva all'Addaura (giugno 1989) aveva, secondo lo stesso giudice, lo scopo di dare credibilità alle lettere: il suo omicidio sarebbe stato visto come la logica conseguenza di una sua presunta intrusione in una guerra di mafia, chiudendo così la vicenda e distruggendo la sua immagine. L'Indagine su Di Pisa L'indagine sulle lettere anonime si concentra sul collega di Falcone, il PM Alberto Di Pisa, il quale, difendendosi, attacca la "gestione familiare e gravemente scorretta" dei pentiti da parte di Falcone. La prova chiave contro Di Pisa, un'impronta su una missiva prelevata da Domenico Sica con una tazza di caffè, viene in seguito giudicata inutilizzabile in appello, portando all'assoluzione di Di Pisa. L'identità del "Corvo di Palermo" rimane uno dei grandi misteri italiani. 00:00:38,"La reazione euforica di Totò Riina alle lettere anonime del ""Corvo""." 00:02:14,"L'infangamento di Falcone dopo il Maxi Processo (""sceriffo"" o ""fenomeno"")." 00:03:23,La nomina di Antonino Meli alla guida dell'Ufficio Istruzione (Gennaio 1988). 00:05:56,Paolo Borsellino: Lo Stato cominciò a far morire Falcone nel gennaio 1988. 00:09:47,Il CSM preferisce Antonino Meli a Giovanni Falcone. 00:12:04,La nomina di Domenico Sica ad Alto Commissario Antimafia (Agosto 1988). 00:15:27,I rapporti tesi tra Falcone e Sica (tentativo fallito su Badalamenti). 00:16:20,Il pentito Salvatore Contorno negli USA si sente abbandonato e collabora nuovamente. 00:27:03,"Le missive anonime del ""Corvo"" accusano Falcone di manipolare i pentiti." 00:29:23,L'attentato alla Daura contro il giudice Falcone (Giugno 1989). 00:29:38,"Falcone: L'attentato doveva servire a dar credito alle lettere del ""Corvo""." 00:30:37,"L'indagine sul ""Corvo"" coinvolge il collega Alberto Di Pisa." 00:33:40,L'impronta di Di Pisa prelevata da Domenico Sica con una tazza di caffè. #ItaliaMistero #documentario #truecrime #storiavera #cronacanera #storia #storiavera #perte #Falcone #CorvoDiPalermo #TotòRiina #Antimafia #Mafia #StoriaItaliana #GiovanniFalcone #CorvoDiPalermo #Addaura, #CosaNostra #corleonesi AVVERTENZA • Questo video è frutto di ricerca giornalistica e utilizza solo fonti pubbliche e accessibili. • Alcune immagini o brevi spezzoni video sono riprodotti per finalità di cronaca, critica, commento o informazione ai sensi dell'art. 70 LDA. • Le ricostruzioni hanno esclusivamente scopo divulgativo. • Non vengono promossi comportamenti contrari alla legge. • Questo contenuto NON costituisce pubblicità né contiene contenuti sponsorizzati.

[79✮ | D80 J78 ]  Juandapo y Diego hablan sobre las dos temporadas de División Palermo, la comedia argentina que nos enfrenta a la discapacidad y a las minorías no como ejemplos románticos de superación sino como lo que son: personas. ·

Glenn Flickinger and Todd DePastino discuss the VBC's WWII Tour of Italy in October 2026, where they will spend 14 days following the path of the Allied forces through one of the most grueling campaigns of World War II. Todd and Glenn will also talk with Italian Campaign expert, 45th Infantry Division Historian Professor David D'Andrea, who will also be joining us on our trip. We'll trace the course of the Italian Campaign, beginning with Operation Husky, the massive Allied invasion of Sicily in July 1943 that opened the road to Europe's soft underbelly. From the hard-fought landings at Gela and Scoglitti to the urban battles in Palermo and the mountainous defenses near Messina, Sicily tested the courage and coordination of American and British troops. From there, the campaign moved to mainland Italy, first at Salerno, where American soldiers fought to hold their beachhead against fierce counterattacks, and then up the rugged spine of the Apennines. We'll visit key battlegrounds of Cassino, where Allied forces waged a costly struggle for control of the ancient Abbey of Monte Cassino, and Anzio, where troops endured months of shelling in a desperate bid to outflank German defenses. The campaign culminated in the liberation of Rome on June 4, 1944, two days before D-Day in Normandy. Our trip will visit these storied sites—Catania, Syracuse, Agrigento, Palermo, Salerno, Cassino, Anzio, and Rome—accompanied by historians and local guides who will help us connect the landscape to the history that unfolded there. Along the way, we'll also enjoy the beauty that drew the world to Italy long before and long after the war: the turquoise waters of the Amalfi Coast, the golden temples of Agrigento, and the ancient beauty of Palermo and Rome. We're grateful to UPMC for Life  for sponsoring this event!

"Da che parte stai?" di Emilio Pagani, Alessio Pasquini, Loris De Marco, da una storia di Pietro Grasso.Pietro Grasso, una vita dedicata alla lotta alla mafia: sostituto procuratore a Palermo (fu lui fra l'altro titolare dell'inchiesta sull'omicidio di Piersanti Mattarella), giudice a latere nel primo maxiprocesso a Cosa Nostra che durò 21 mesi fra l'86 e l'87, procuratore nazionale antimafia, collega ma soprattutto amico di Giovanni Falcone e Paolo Borsellino, del cui lavoro poi è diventato testimone. Oggi, fra l'altro, è fondatore e presidente della Fondazione Scintille di Futuro, che ha l'obiettivo di sviluppare progetti e percorsi di legalità nelle scuole.La vita di Pietro Grasso, quindi, è una costante testimonianza del suo impegno contro la mafia e a favore della legalità. Come accade anche nella graphic novel "Da che parte stai?" (Tunuè) di Emilio Pagani, Alessio Pasquini, Loris De Marco, da una storia di Pietro Grasso. Stavolta, forse più che negli altri libri, Pietro Grasso, ha scelto di raccontare una serie di vicessitudini dal punto di vista della sua famiglia (la moglie Maria e il figlio Maurilio) che ha sempre appoggiato e sostenuto le scelte di Grasso nel suo percorso di lotta alla mafia.

Si moltiplicano gli annunci, gli investimenti e cresce l'interesse per le tecnologie quantistiche. E anche l'Italia ha da poco una strategia per accelerare lo sviluppo di un ecosistema. Enrico Pagliarini ne parla con Tommaso Calarco, ordinario di Fisica all'Università di Bologna, direttore dell'Istituto Peter Grünberg per il controllo quantistico e coordinatore della Strategia italiana sulle tecnologie quantistiche.Dopo tanti anni di investimenti arriva anche in Italia la prima rete 5G "stand alone", una delle poche in Europa, segnando una nuova evoluzione della tecnologia lanciata nel nostro Paese nel 2018. A lanciarla è stata WindTre in collaborazione con Ericsson. Ne parliamo con Carlo Melis, Chief Technology Officer di WindTre.Digital twins programmabili, che permettono agli sviluppatori di simulare e controllare i sistemi automatizzati. È l'ambito operativo di Cyberwave, startup che ha recentemente raccolto 7 milioni di euro in un round di investimenti, come spiega il Ceo e co fondatore, Simone Di Somma. L'Università di Palermo ha adottato un sistema di videosorveglianza che integra video e intelligenza artificiale tra i più grandi in Europa.

Send us a textMy guest on this week's episode of Thrive Solo is the wonderful Cindy Sheehan.In 2016, Cindy was a married Mum of four when she took a leave of absence from her office job in Colorado and joined two friends to go backpacking on The Kerry Way in Ireland. Little did she know at the time that that trip would be the beginning of a brand new life. By the end of 2017, she had quit both her job and her marriage to become a full-time traveller, and she has since travelled to nearly 50 countries. Cindy has settled in Palermo, Sicily for now, although who knows where life might take her next. Now while she lives a largely solo life, Cindy has a French, paraglider boyfriend — otherwise known as The Frenchman — who lives in France, and although the two of them spend more time apart than they do together, they meet when they can for travelling adventures. I know that you will love hearing all about Cindy's solo life and travels. In this conversation she shares her transformative experience of leaving a 30-year marriage to travel the world, settling temporarily in various countries, and eventually obtaining an EU passport through Italian ancestry. She talks about the unique relationship dynamics with her French partner, the challenges and rewards of solo travel, and the profound sense of freedom it brings. Tune in for inspirational stories, advice on overcoming fears, and a celebration of living a joyful, independent life.04:54 Cindy's Life Transformation11:47 The Decision to Leave a 30-Year Marriage14:35 Support from Family and Solo Travels17:03 Meeting the Frenchman: A Unique Relationship23:49 The Joys and Challenges of Solo Travel28:39 Making Connections While Traveling31:13 Multi-Generational Friendships32:11 The Joys of Solo Travel34:44 Memorable Travel Destinations36:40 Settling in Europe: Portugal and Sicily37:29 Navigating EU Residency and Citizenship44:39 Living in Palermo, Sicily48:29 Overcoming Solo Travel Fears54:07 Thriving Solo: Tips and Reflections57:23 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsFollow Cindy on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/postsfromaflashpacker/Check out Cindy's website: https://postsfromaflashpacker.com/Support the showOrder my book, SHINY HAPPY SINGLES (UK) / THRIVE SOLO (US & Canada) at: https://www.lucymeggeson.com/book Download my FREE PDF 'The Top 10 Answers To The Most Irritating Questions That Single People Get Asked On The Regular...& How To (Devilishly) Respond'?
