Carmelo D’Amico a former mafia hitman for the Sicilian mafia also known has Cosa Nostra in Italy is pledging to blow the whistle on the mob’s political corruption.
D,Amico has admitted for being part of at least 30 murders on behalf of the mafia before turning on the mob in response to an appeal by the Pope for mobsters to abandon crime. The mobster said that if he is protected he is willing to tell everything he knows about the mafia in Italy.
“Carmelo D’Amico“
D’Amico told prosecutor Nino Di Matteo that the names of the people he is ready to give are capable of anything including going inside of prisons. He also said they direct politics and will try to get rid of him much like they have tried to do with the prosecutor. In front of the Palermo Assize court he admitted to being frightened to tell everything because of worries for himself and his families.
Already supplying two names Angelino Alfano and Renato Schifani who Carmelo says were among those who were elected because of deals made with Cosa Nostra. Also claims that Forza Italia was born because Toto Riina and Bernardo Provenzano wanted it to govern Italy, and that Silvio Berlusconi was a pawn of Riina, Provenzano, and Marcello Dell’Utri. And according to him the secret services had a part in the mafia bombings of former anti-mafia magistrates Paolo Borsellino and Giovanni Falcone in the 1990’s.
at the end of the day it does not effect them. They will weaken and lose some of there poltiicans but they will simply find new ones and replace the guys who are sent to prison as they always do i dont think the mafia will ever lose its grip on Sicily, Calbria, Napels and all over italy
Political influence in Italy seems to still be a strong point of the mafia families there including Cosa Nostra so your right although he may cause a serious dent they will pick up the pieces and move ahead with a new round of bosses and their political connections.
You know, we all are crazy but this is stupid. Who, if are afraid if being killed, would let press know they’ll “rat” before they have police protection? Then to prove they know something gives 2 names of ppl who he knows can/have had ppl killed. Don’t know if he has life insurance, but if not oops too late
