Oz mobster Mick Gato to build playgrounds for autistic

Oz underworld veteran Mick Gatto has failed again in a defamation case over an ABC article he says accused him of threatening to kill lawyer Nicola Gobbo. Initially Gatto asked for an apology, but later sought the “maximum payout”. It was tossed and Gatto was ordered to pay costs. Latest for Gato is a charity that is raising money to build playgrounds in Melbourne for children with autism.

Gatto was involved in a well publicized Salvation Army event in 2019. "I wish youse would leave me alone with this sort of stuff, I'm trying to do the right thing," Gatto said, "If I can contribute to society I'm very happy to do it."

'Dapper' Danny Hogan

Daniel P. Hogan 1905 Age 22

"Dapper" Danny Hogan (ca. 1880 - December 4, 1928) was a charismatic underworld figure and boss of Saint Paul, Minnesota's Irish Mob during Prohibition. His connections to cops of the deeply corrupt St. Paul Police Department made him hugely rich. Police Chief John "The Big Fellow" O'Connor of Saint Paul allowed criminals to operate in the city as long as they checked in with police, paid a small bribe and promised not to kill, kidnap, or rob within city limits. St. Paul was a safe haven for gangsters from 1900 to 1936 — as long as they conducted their criminal shenanigans elsewhere. Notorious gangsters like John Dillinger, Al Capone, “Babyface” Nelson, Ma Barker, Alvin Karpis, Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow all made Minnesota stops.

On December 4, 1928, Dapper Dan got behind the wheel of his Paige coupe and turned on the ignition. A bomb located beneath the floorboards detonated and blew off his right leg. He slipped into a coma at the hospital and died nine hours after the blast. Although the murder is still considered unsolved, declassified FBI files reveal that the most likely person responsible was Harry Sawyer, Hogan's underboss.

Ricardo Ruiz - CJNG boss lassoed

Ricardo Ruiz, 'RR' or 'Doble R' is among the top leaders of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel. The arrest of Doble R resulted in Guadalajara becoming a war zone for 10 hours. Mexico’s president said the attacks began after the military raided a cartel meeting. 14 were arrested. Ruiz, also known as 'The YouTuber', is behind the Jalisco Cartel New Generation’s propaganda videos and is second only to Juan Carlos González, 'El 03' and El Mencho.

Ferdy Sambo

Officials in Jakarta busted one of the National Police’s top cops for the revenge shooting of a subordinate. General Inspector Ferdy Sambo is a suspect in the shooting of his driver who was involved romantically with Sambo’s wife. The shooting and its aftermath have riveted the Indonesian public. National police operate in Indonesia with almost complete impunity. Sources said that junior officers had been ordered to trample the murder scene, that a CCTV camera disappeared and other attempts were made to obliterate evidence.

Most Indonesians regard a visit from the police as a pending shakedown.

Some 25 cops, including Sambo, were removed from their positions. A western expert states “The police have been a hindrance to business and growth for decades. This scandal is very important in setting a tone of accountability. It is long overdue."
