mafioso

A handful of Mafiosi serving sentences in Italian prisons started cooperating with the police, becoming “pentiti” or turncoats.

“The Mafiosi can not have possession of good things,” Emiliano said at a press conference after the killings in Puglia.

It was a feud between Mafiosi who rubbed each other out with mortars or cannons.

The bar was a gathering place for gamblers, mobsters, mafiosi, and, occasionally, corrupt cops and agents.
