I'm about 99% sure I saw a couple of old school Italian guys dumping a body in the river in Chalmette a month after Katrina. 
I was making medical rounds with the Guard in Da Parish and we rolled up to these two caricatures of Italian mob movie guys throwing buckets of what looked to be cut up body parts into the river by the Chalmette ferry landing. The guard asked them if they had any problems and they looked a little caught of guard/nervous and told us they caught some wild hogs in the back of Rocky and Carlos Restaurant and were just getting rid of the carcasses.
Now, if you know 2 things about Chalmette you know this; One, they don't have a whole lot of wild hogs running aroud. And two, the Tommaseo's have a long blood line that runs into the Carlos Marcello days. I told my group that we should just move on.

Look at Providence, RI in the 80's and 90's. It was mob run and was doing very well.
Mayor wound up going to prison via FBI investigations and the city fell apart afterwards

My first job was working at a NY pizza joint that was mob owned. Guys would walk in the back door and grab a bag of cash each night. They were always nice guys to me but you knew not to F with them

Tommaseo's
They are also known for getting rid of things on the levee
Although, there used to be hogs south of violet - maybe the hogs moved up after Katrina

A college buddy's father was a second tier bookie just under the major bookies directly working for Uncle Carlos. Buddy's job, as a college aged student was to walk up to a dead beat gambler who owed his father money & tell him to either pay up or the next guy would be carrying an ax. We were working out at Red's one Sat. & my buddy started staring at this mid 50'ish guy across the gym. Saying he'd be right back, he walked up to the guy, put his arm around the guy's shoulder, talked quietly for a few minutes, the guy turned white as a ghost, stumbled, then quickly walked away when my friend was finished talking. Seems the guy owed $10K, for almost 5 mths. Never heard what happened, never asked. He told me once that Uncle Carlos owned all the mules who pulled the carriages around the Quarter. Those mules were among the first things evacuated when Katrina was heading N.O. way. Uncle Carlos very much existed & was very much part of the nation-wide mob.

My wife went to grad school at Columbia in NYC and worked in the facility management office. Columbia owns a lot of real estate and one of her duties was to periodically go around and check on various properties. Once she walked in on a bunch of Guidos in track suits with a stash of obviously hot merchandise. She played the ditzy southern girl, told them she was looking for a lost cat, and backed away slowly

My dads close friend worked for Meyer Lansky. They used to get tips on rigged horse races at the track in Hot Springs so they’d know how to bet, as long as they didn’t get greedy with it. It helped my dad pay living expenses in college
My dad also dated a Mexican cartel members sister when he lived in El Paso. Said they had a barn full of bales of cash in Mexico guarded with guys carrying machine guns.
Not mob related but my grandfather knew Bill Clinton well and for some reason after the 1979 Iranian revolution the Shah of Iran’s sister who was exiled stayed at my grandparents house for 2 months in Pine Bluff. Also my grandfathers blood plasma donation centers accidentally sent HIV tainted blood to Canada that infected like 80,000 people in the 80s right when the AIDS scare came about. They were getting blood from prisons in Arkansas because they didn’t have to pay much for it and selling the plasma to Canada making millions a year. All the gay sex in prisons caused it to be tainted blood and didn’t know it. Would have been a huge deal but Clinton covered it up as governor at the time. There was a documentary called Factor 8 about it

BRPD is a cartel, not really a mob.

i worked at a little pizza place owned by 2 italian brothers in high school. their dad who barely spoke english would always be there and he just looked like he had knocked a few people off in his day
they lived in castle hills (extremely nice neighborhood in dfw) and both the brothers drove $140,000 benzes and were constantly taking trips to vegas, and would rent lambos and shite on the trips. there was absolutely no way they were raking in all that money from a little pizza restaurant.
the thing that really gave it away was about twice a week, i would come back from a delivery and there would be 4 or 5 Italian dudes in track suits sitting around the owners at a table. spoke straight italian so i never knew what they were talking about. also we were all paid under the table in checks directly from one of the brothers which seemed kinda sketchy.

One of the Rosy Finch Boyz recently stole millions from LSU.
Am I doing this right?

I got into it with Dextry’s Midnight Riders. Elaine was worth it.
