Wagner boss Prigozhin whacked - 'complicated fate'

Dead man walking Wagner Boss Prigozhin has met his fate to no one's surprise.
Yevgeny Prigozhin said he and his men would be regarded as traitors if they abandoned their positions in the city of Bakhmut. For the second time in a matter of days he said his forces would leave Bakhmut if they did not receive the ammunition they needed. "A combat order came yesterday which clearly stated that if we leave our positions (in Bakhmut), it will be regarded as treason against the motherland. That was the message to us," Prigozhin said. He referred cryptically to a 'grandfather figure'. Many suspect that is his boss Putin.
Yevgeny Prigozhin said that he had received a promise of more ammunition from the Russian army following his unprecedented public threat to pull his forces from Bakhmut due to a lack of ammunition. Prigozhin's blistering attack using crude and emotional language was heard by Putin.

Prigozhin said that all decisions regarding Wagner's operation would now be taken by General Surovikin. Surovikin, an army veteran with a brutal reputation was replaced by Valery Gerasimov, who is regularly criticized by Prigozhin.

“On May 10, 2023 we will have to hand over our positions in Bakhmut to units of the defence ministry and withdraw Wagner units to rear camps to lick our wounds,” Yevgeny Prigozhin said.
US National Security said that more than 20,000 Russian soldiers have been killed and another 80,000 wounded in fighting in Ukraine since December. Half of the dead were from the Wagner group. Last week Prigozhin told a Russian pro-war blogger that Wagner fighters in Bakhmut were down to their last days of supplies of bullets.

HA Robert Barletta ensnared in dueling lawsuits - update

Montreal cops are trying to figure out who torched the house of notorious HA Rob Barletta. Barletta’s upscale home north of Montreal was gutted by fire. Firefighters were called to the suspicious blaze that broke out at 4:15 a.m. at a home on Boulevard du Grand Héron in Saint-Jérôme. Robert Barletta, 53, was renting the home. It was raided on June 6 by cops as part of an investigation into drug trafficking by Montreal Hells Angels. Barletta is said to be part of a group of Montreal HA feuding with another organized crime group over control of sports books in Quebec.
Another house on the same street was targeted in a suspected arson earlier this week. Three Ontario homes formerly owned by Barletta were destroyed by fires. They were among the $40m in assets seized as part of Operation Hobart.

HA Robert Barletta and two cronies, all of whom were charged in a crackdown on illegal sports betting, are embroiled in a multi-million dollar lawsuit over a botched luxury development. Naturally there are multiple unsolved arsons. Barletta was the ringleader of the gambling operation that cops say took in $160m over six years. Barletta, Douglas Adams, and Michael Curtis were all charged in Operation Hobart, a two-year investigation of illegal gambling that flopped miserably.

A multi-million dollar home burns west of Thornbury.
They all walked. $40m in assets seized as part of Operation Hobart stand to be seized as proceeds of crime. A Lake Drive property is one of seven bought in Barletta’s name or by him, using AMG 2016 Family Trust, held by a Toronto law firm.

Dutch Schultz

Dutch Schultz (Arthur Flegenheimer) was a New York City Jewish gangster who made his fortune in organized crime-related activities such as bootlegging, loan sharking and the numbers racket.

Along with other rackets, Schultz began extorting New York restaurant owners and workers. Those gangsters who skimmed the take did not last long. "Dutch Schultz was ugly; he had been drinking and suddenly he had his gun out. "Schultz wore his pistol under his vest, tucked inside his pants, right against his belly. One jerk at his vest and he had it in his hand.
All in the same quick motion he swung it up, stuck it in Jules Martin's mouth and pulled the trigger. It was as simple and undramatic as that—just one quick motion of the hand. Dutch Schultz did that murder just as casually as if he were picking his teeth.” When Davis later read a newspaper story about Martin's murder, he found out the body was found in a snow bank with a dozen stab wounds. When Davis asked Schultz, the boss dead-panned, "I cut his heart out."
At the time of the Martin killing, Schultz was fighting a tax evasion case: U.S. Attorney Thomas Dewey had set his sights on Schultz. Schultz was convicted of the charges, but they were overturned.
Schultz went before the Mafia Commission and asked permission to kill Dewey. All were against it because the full weight of the law would come down on them. Schultz was furious at the outcome of the vote; he accused the Commission of trying to steal his rackets and "feed him to the law." After Schultz left in a seething rage, the Commission decided to kill him. Albert Anastasia sent Jewish mobster Louis Buchalter to kill Schultz.

Bonanno boss Joseph Bonanno thought the idea was "insane."

Dutch Schultz at the courthouse in 1935.
Buchalter died in the electric chair at Sing Sing on March 4, 1944.
At 10:15 p.m. on October 23, 1935, Schultz was shot multiple times at the Palace Chophouse at 12 East Park Street in Newark, New Jersey. Doctors performed surgery but were unaware of the extent of damage done to his abdominal organs by a ricocheting bullet.

They were also unaware that the gunmen had intentionally used rust-coated bullets in an attempt to give Schultz a fatal bloodstream infection (septicemia) should he survive the gunshot. Schultz lingered for 22 hours before dying of peritonitis. Two bodyguards and Schultz's accountant were also killed.

Cops recorded the gangster's rambling last words as he died of peritonitis caused by a rust-coated bullet.
"Oh, mamma, mamma, please don't tear; don't rip..."
"Mother is the best bet and don't let Satan draw you too fast."
"I will be checked and double-checked and please pull for me."
"I can't come; express office was closed."
"Please crack down on the Chinaman's friends and Hitler's commander."
"These native children make this and sell you the joint."
"You can play jacks, and girls do that with a soft ball and do tricks with it."

"Who shot me? No one."
Bernard 'Lulu' Rosenkrantz was Schultz's chauffeur and bodyguard. He was shot at the Palace Chophouse moments after Schultz was shot. He died two days later in hospital. He produced a map before dying. Though estimated to be worth over $7m ($140m in 2020 dollars) when he died, no trace of Dutch Schultz's wealth was found. Its thought Schultz hid his treasure in a buried safe somewhere in the Catskill Mountain range. The story says he stashed away his fortune somewhere around Phoenicia, New York. When Schultz was gunned down in 1935, the location of his loot died with him.
Otto "Abbadabba" Berman was accountant and financial advisor to gangster Dutch Schultz. He is known for coining the phrase "Nothing personal, it is just business." He died in a hail of gunfire.

The Angelo Bruno hit

Angelo Bruno, head of the Philadelphia crime family, was killed in March 1980 via a shotgun blast to the back of the head. Bruno’s consigliere, Antonio Caponigro was upset that Bruno was limiting involvement in drugs, cutting Caponigro off from profits. Caponigro ordered a hit on Bruno.
Since the hit hadn’t been authorized by the Commission, Caponigro had to be punished for his disrespect. Betrayed by his friend and co-conspirator, Frank Tieri, Caponigro was shot by Joe 'Mad Dog' Sullivan while parked outside his Philadelphia home. His body was later found in the trunk of a car in the South Bronx with 14 bullet and knife wounds and $300 stuffed into his mouth and anus to symbolize his greed.

Claudia Iacono killing enters new territory for Montreal mafia - update II

Montreal police announced the arrest of a second man, 30, in connection with the May killing of Claudia Iacono. He was arrested in Toronto on Monday and will be charged with first-degree murder. Cops said they believe the second suspect planned the killing and that Clarke was the gunman.
Joel Richard Clarke, 28, has been arrested in the shooting death of Claudia Iacono. He was arrested on a charge of first-degree murder for the May 16 killing. Iacono, 39, was shot in her car close to the hair salon she ran on Jean-Talon St. W. in Montreal’s Côte-des-Neiges district. Police arrived at the scene to find Iacono in her car. It collided with a building and was still running. Claudia Iacono was married to Antonio Gallo, the son of Moreno Gallo. She was not connected to crime while her husband and brother-in-law absolutely are. The killing is seen as a message to them. The mafia previously did not target wives. That line has been crossed.

Joel Clarke was nailed in May for dealing purple fentanyl, cocaine and Percocet, and had a semi-automatic pistol, pistol magazines, and cash seized. Bianca Brown, 26, was busted with him.
Witnesses said that a gunman waited for Iacono to enter the parking lot before shooting her five times at point blank range. Montreal cops arrived to find Iacono with gunshot wounds inside her car. She was declared dead at the scene. The 39-year-old was a mother of three children.
Claudia Iacono, a Montreal salon owner and the daughter-in-law of Moreno Gallo, was executed in a Côte-des-Neiges parking lot. Moreno Gallo was closely tied to the Montreal mafia. The Calabrian mobster was deported from Canada for serious criminality in 2012. He was whacked in Mexico in 2013.

Dirty Doug Ford and Shakir Rehmatullah - Flato Developments


Doug Ford, Kaleed Rasheed, Shakir Rehmatullah. (shak@flatogroup.com)


Top aide to Doug Ford, Amin Massoudi and cabinet minister Kaleed Rasheed went on an all expenses paid jaunt to Vegas in 2020 with developer Shakir Rehmatullah. The three men are described as long-term best buddies.   In February 2020, Massoudi was Ford’s principal secretary. Rasheed was Mississauga East—Cooksville MPP and deputy whip. Since 2020, Rehmatullah’s Flato Developments, and his other companies, has received at least five minister’s zoning orders (MZOs) to fast-track development. Rehmatullah attended Ford's daughter's wedding on Sept. 25, 2022. Two days later, Rehmatullah's lawyers emailed Ryan Amato seeking the removal of three parcels of his land in York Region. They were taken out of the Greenbelt.

DeGasperis brothers = Greenbelt bandits - update

"No one had preferential treatment," Doug Ford lied during a press dog and pony show. The Auditor General says exactly the opposite and that is a much better source than a clearly lying piece of sweating dog shit. The DeGasperis brothers, principals of Tacc, have been generous donors to Ford and the Tories and those bribes were rewarded.
The day after the dinner with barking K9 Ryan Amato September 15, Green Lane Bathurst LP (Rice Group) finalized purchasing land it wanted out of the greenbelt for $80m.
See ----->https://www.auditor.on.ca/en/content/specialreports/specialreports/Greenbelt_en.pdf
The biggest and most valuable land which Ford gifted to his developer friends includes around 1,900 hectares of mostly farmland in and around the Duffins Rouge Agricultural Preserve (DRAP) in north Pickering. In 2022 the CBC identified 28 properties in the sensitive DRAP, covering a total of 718 hectares, that are owned by seven different holding companies controlled by the DeGasperis brothers. Brothers Silvio, Carlo and Michael DeGasperis have had big plans for the DRAP for many years. Four properties bought after the Greenbelt's creation include two purchased together for $1.7m in 2016 and two others bought separately in 2020 for $7.9m and $3.5m. The DeGasperis founded the Tacc Group of companies, which includes Tacc Developments, Tacc Construction, Arista Homes, Opus Homes and Decast Ltd., among others. The brothers and their companies are prolific political contributors to the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario and Doug Ford. Tacc companies had direct access to barking dog Ryan Amato and instructed him which properties to remove from the Greenbelt. He eagerly complied after being given 'packages' at a dinner meeting.

8,000 kg cocaine seizure at Port of Rotterdam


Fernando Villavicencio was known for speaking out against drug cartels and corruption in Ecuador.
Customs in Rotterdam have confiscated more than 8,000 kg (17,600 pounds) of cocaine, the largest seizure of the drug in the Netherlands. Drugs had an estimated street value of 600m million euros. ($668m USD) No arrests have been made. The haul doubles the previous cocaine record. Prosecutors said the drugs were discovered on July 13 hidden in a container of bananas from Ecuador. Rotterdam and the Belgian port of Antwerp are the main gateways for cocaine into Europe. The bust came a day after presidential candidate Fernando Villavicencio, a member of Ecuador's national assembly, was executed at a campaign rally.
