    I went to law school in Delaware right outside of Philly and the best class I took was organized crime. The prof was the assistant US attorney who prosecuted all of the big Philly mob cases in late 80s and 90s. It was amazing. Personally, I never did any of the reading because you didn’t need to. It was just show up for an hour of mob story time. Like firsthand stuff you’re never gonna see or hear. So great

      I had a class similar where the teacher set up a crime scene in the classroom. We had to figure out what happened in what order and write a report 😂. It was one of the best classes I've ever had.

Lawyer lawyer then Eddie and me. If stuck, don’t believe trail prior sold a yatch tell you balance. I know walked on it, a city. Not to give what a laugh, spilled all that blood for nothing. Embarrassing, liars on liars, went on date. Not helping knew what DA was doing. Always all lies, it was same as others just more killing. Eddie took care of a ticket, ID not mine, retired they hired him for ne, knew him. They stole my defense money when killed in car. He wanted half a Fagh brother gone, as does Amsterdam all whites. Betrayed blood of Europe. I was doing him a favor only true innocent client. His office was whole floor in retirement marble bad painting, list of murders was endless took different girls as guests. News asked who was. student of law. As if go to law school, black sheep merging banks of European Asian investment houses. Not a parasite, bozos. Spent that money at horses, where fentanyl first three found in lab. Had to make one as no samples of analogue. Went to Merlino too, oh they knew?” Odd that of all the ETHNIC MOBS, not bothering anyone else? Russian Israeli Jewish, etc… All going to Irish bars gambling Israeli worse mob. Unwatchable, can’t stand dummies! Lunch at…no. Oh journalist doesn’t know son? I thought was trying to crash losing, raised voice. Said don’t speak too me don’t know you! Nodded, can’t stand any before family the press quests. Teacher front school was there, said what you doing here I said you told students could go. Oh yeah, maybe did they couldn’t go. Looked lost, another dope. Easy A, had As read book 100%. Stem for majors gonna be a FED, set up slow people in fake crimes cover up Israeli crimes. Throwing Epstein stuff on drink, more worse crooks. Legit illegal all terrible, legal pharm does infinite worse. LEO Mob the “ media mob.” Still did nothing same run same systems, meet a barbers. 1islabd others protectorate. Nickle baggers. Witness protection everyone knows where are, not watched go away still doing stupid stuff, others tell do nothing. Kill folks so what. Step brother was cold case terrorism know who $50k murders dozen two on property. Scarichi town. Casino wash, that little violent puppet monkey man had to go. Get him back, tell him he was here out of interest puzzles. Not paid, lawyers Hail Mary, ask them about how know what couldn’t not true. Lies all over place. If kew no surveillance, chicken testa, gruesome drove saw. Saw Beijing Tiananmen and genocides these pikies.
      Girls that went have new boyfriends pretend like gangsters, as if not can just be silly. Connect, go on silly ass. Been all over planet. Everyone is so cool, nobody is. Criminals know get caught more than once you are a failure. Why know names like bikies? Just f u to LEO. If not fake it’s headed by baboons. Good fellas, just slow dim wits.

    Scarfo was not the one that went after the Docile Don, Angelo Bruno. It was Stanfa a replacement driver that particular night that set him up.

    I knew a few “guys” back in the day that were deeply involved in the life. It was clear that they operated in a general sense in a fashion as to NEVER attract any attention to themselves in ANY public situation. If they went out to eat a some high end restaurant, that bill was paid along with an extremely gracious tip. Always making very gracious contributions to local charitable organizations, but never over the top unless it was an obvious connection to them personally for very obvious reasons (like when a relative got cancer and there was a local fundraiser for the family of that relative, etc.). This was to basically firm up local allegiance from even those outside of the criminal activities. It definitely worked. None of those guys ever had any legal hassles to deal with of any significance.

Not even regular ppl. Needing to scrap 1100$ from this guy and the 700$ from that guy. And the Skipper is not answering and doesn't want to pay over the 700$. I mean, these guys are absolute retards. They also never saved or properly invested their earnings accordingly when younger. They are probably living comfortably. But, in my opinion, its not worth it. Whoever is in it already, they're vested and that's that. But young guys like the kid Dom is a dope. Hes young and there's a million ways to make money nowadays. You do not need the mob no more.

So I'm out behind the building tossing bottles in barrels,with a joint in my mouth, when this helicopter lands 15 feet away. No warning. 3 guys get out and it's obvious 1 is a mafia boss,dressed to the nines, and the other 2 bodyguards. Boss comes over and asks my name. Then asks if I'm Italian. Yeah half, Moms name was Sellare. He pats me on the shoulder and says " Good kid" and they go inside. When they leave the managers are all pale and acting weird.

      Some big mistakes though, Angelo Bruno was killed by his consigliere Antonio 'Tony Bananas' Caponigro who had been tricked by the Genovese Family's Funzi Tieri that the assassination of Bruno by Caponigro and then him becoming the new boss had been approved by The Commission, it hadn't. Caponigro was brutally killed as was his brother in law and cousin Alfred Salerno whose believed to have been the actual shooter. Others in the Philadelphia Family who were involved in the killing of Bruno also paid for it with their lives such as capos Frank Sindone who was going to be the underboss of the new regime and his cousin John Sindone.
