We all grew up 😅, seriously though I had my fill of these around 2005, it's the tiresome way they feel the need to repeat the narrative over and over again, there's 16 year old kids from each corner of the earth doing wonderfully explaining these cases in around 15 minutes which is more than enough. 👍
The FBI deliberately cherished Hoover's ignorance from the 1920s right through the 1960s. Mafia dominance is due to Hoover's corruption and stupidity, and the direction of worthless politicians. All of these groups are traitors to humanity so its no accident they were used by secret police to commit crimes such as assassinations of political opponents and drug dealing to attack minorities. Prison officials wrote the 'Diaper Don' glowing reports because they were bought, and of course ctiminally stupid.
There are 4 types of crime: 1) Disorganized Crime (Street thugs, petty criminals) 2) Blue Collard Organized Crime (Mobsters & Gangs) 3) White Collard Organized Crime (Wall Street & politician’s) 4) Deep State Organized Crime (Billionaires & extremely powerful people dealing in the shadows that capable of controlling the other 3 forms of criminals).
I moved to Georgia in the early 90s and one day our neighbor came over and said that a Dixie Mafia hitman once lived in our house, John Ransom. Then they told us all these different tails like one day he came home and his car was all shot up, he had a shootout with the police. Another time his son went with their son out to the woods and his son brought automatic weapons to play with. He also had a wooden leg. And the neighbors assumed that it was from an accident or something. Buy what it was from was when he was a kid he robbed a store and the store owner shot him in the leg with a shotgun and he lost his leg. One time they were at his house and he got a phone call. He came out saying he would had to go to Miami. Then in the papers there was a high-profile shooting in the Miami area and they thought Ransom had done the killing. So we heard all these stories and a few weird things happening that house and I think that it was haunted. Then one day we got any box delivered from a federal penitentiary address to John Ransom. We didn't bring it to the house, we left in the front yard. Some members of his family came by and picked it up
He might have killed my uncle. My uncle was an attorney that laundered money from Atlanta strip clubs for a Trafficante associate when he was killed in 1975. That associate is a very old billionaire today.
@@powell4661 interesting. I have an uncle who was an attorney at Sarasota and my cousin said that he found out the Mob was running the local grayhound track and he was going to do something about it. Well, shortly after a couple of men showed up remarking to my uncle what a beautiful family he had. Well, my uncle dropped it. This was in either the 60s or 70s.
@@powell4661 yeah, my uncle got lucky. He was kind of high profile, was head of the local bar association, had some big accounts. For instance, lol, he successfully defended the local strip bar, Club Mary, when the county wanted it closed which led to one of my cousins drinking for free whenever he stopped by.
after just watching a Mafia documentary, where the narrator just explained the Colombo Wars by saying "this guy whacked that guy, the other guy whacked the guy allegedly order by that dude, Persico went to prison, Vikorena put a hit on this guy and that guy" without any attention to details at all, it made me realize how much this version of documentary is superior, what's important are the details, without it whatever happens feels empty and meaningless
I thought I recognized the guy pouring the drink in the beginning. His name is Doug Tracht. He was also known as The Greaseman, a prominent Washington, DC area DJ in the 1980s. A “shock jock”, he was fired a couple times for jokes he made on the air. I think some of his comedy bits are on UA-cam.
After walking 10 or so steps the person that could walk best was the designated driver. The words of a retired fire fighter/Station officer family member. Yeah that guy was in charge of multi car pile ups along with other major emergencies 😂
Being back in the day when the fire station had a bar on the top floor. This same fire fighter had just finished an 18 hour shift after a serious incident. The guys decided they would go for a drink. After coming home after 4am he had a shower and went off to sit his final officers exam at 5am. Later he received his results in person by a top fire department official for the highest score in the country
@psu23sg True. Thankfully I don't drink anymore. Of course it had to ruin my life first. I lost the taste, and desire for it. The thought of taking a drink makes me feel ill.
1:01:46 Was he "paranoid" that his house was bugged? NO! He KNEW that his house was bugged... 🤷 Edit: the "professional" who had "sweeped" the house for bugs was an idiot.. It's really NOT that hard to build equipment that will check the entire R.F. band for random signals that don't belong there. There's slightly more to it than just that, but it isn't that hard of a thing to do. The only thing is, you do NOT want to alert the feds to the fact that you are bringing someone in to do the sweep, or else they can remotely "turn off" the bugs so that they dont emit a signal, and no one will ever be able to detect it. The best time to do the sweep would be when the Feds are actually listening to the bugs, and have no clue that one is trying to detect them. Calling in a bug sweeper is a futile enterprise if the Feds KNOW that someone is there doing it.... 🤦

How did Peter Halat knew that both the judge and his wife were dead if he only walked into the front of the house and didn't go to the back of the house where the wife's body was in the master bedroom and couldn't have seen her body? He would have had to have prior knowledge snd he tried to create a false alibi with his assistant.
Michael fransses and Sammy Garvano in today's times are the men to listen to about these times in history straight from the life off the men themselves I like that shit that's legendary
I’m pretty sure the recreation has a flaw. When Pete entered the house, it looked like there was a hand hanging off the couch while the judge was on the floor. This puts both bodies in the same room. Later it is said Pete didn’t have enough time in the house to find the wife dead, given she was in the back of the house
Huh interesting.. plus didn't we watch her get killed in her bedroom? Also, I've never heard of this case before but exactly when Halat (Pete) asked his coworker to take a ride with him to the Sherries home I immediately felt something was up... Then when he asked the coworker to go around back and check the back door while he checked the neighbor I knew for sure that he was in on it in some way, shape or form.
The hand is the judge's hand. His upper arm is on the floor, while his lower arm is up against the couch (making an L shape), and his wrist is bent. You can see it when they walk in around 7:45
The Mafia controls Palermo from A to Z , Alcamo, Castallamare del Golfo , Trapani salt, marble for middle east. Known fact 100% if you are Sicilian..Everyone knows that common knowledge. Just 😮 la cosa....

In the beginning those kids reciting the Pledge of Allegiance when they got to the part, one nation, what should have followed was under God, that part was skipped. I don’t know if the kids skipped it, or when the film was put together if they edited out the words under God. Under God is part of the Pledge of Allegiance so I don’t know why people think it should be removed. Disappointing.
"Because the couple was so prominent, the investigation became top priority..." [Case 1: The Sherrys---Judge Vincent and Councilwoman Margaret, in Mississippi]
His mother began calling him Chincenzo, a diminutive of his name Vincenzo, due to the fact that there were so many boys in the neighborhood with this same name. Instead of calling out Vincenzo, she would call "Chincenzo" and thus he became known in the neighborhood as Chin
A lot of times the Chin nickname is to Asians bc China-Chin.. My friend group in college had a 'Chin' that I had no clue that was the root of his nickname until his wedding yrs after we graduated when I heard the story from a childhood friend. I was flabbergasted as Im only 31 its not like this was that long ago haha but I guess its common
Please keep in mind this is late 1980s Gambino families have no power stronghold or any hold in the streets of New York City today.! I'm just keeping it as real as it is witnessed in the streets of New York today.!
Actually she didn’t… Seems everyone missed that she was taking money too… Or did I make that up?!?! Pete was able to say she stole the $100k that’s why the hit was initiated!!!
The problem started from within. The newer generations thought they knew better than their predecessors. The respect and rules degraded. This left weaknesses that made it easy for the FBI to infiltrate.
As an Italian-American, I find the title of this post offensive. The Mafia comprises a minuscule fraction of Italians. Imagine if a video about Jewish mobsters was titled “The Jews.” Holy Hell would be raised. But somehow many people have no problem with Italians being stereotyped.
As a full-blooded Italian American, myself who grew up in an Italian dominated NY borough and lived for a while in a protected neighborhood, and while my Italian pride centers on the Renaiisance - don't bullshit yourself. The mafia was very much dominated by Italians or Italian Americans from southern Italy and Sicily. I've known several people who were "connected" and had some in my extended family. I take no pride in that, nor am I ashamed of it. It's part and parcel of the culture. Lying about that doesn't create an alternate reality.
My father is Sicilian and married with two sons and a daughter. My mother is born American, descended from slaves. I've been told I am the product of a man that lost a bet to friends of his so here I am. Referred to as a "moolie" by my father's family and "you ain't one of us, we found you and felt sorry for you, that's the only reason you're here." If there is a "hell", it's not "holy" and it's more like being rejected by family members because your parents "had to scratch an itch/drunk/high" or whatever.
Dixie Mafia is not Italian and was active in Biloxi. The NOLA crime family was very active in the illegal slot machine business and insurance scams. They are Silician.
Why would a judge answer the doorbell after dark, I wonder. I guess an age of innocence. But not in Buloxi; it's the Dixie Mafia; law-enforcement was aware of them and so the judge would have had them on his radar. Such a dumb crime; how in the hell did they get him to come to the door. They had already been stalking him for months and knew he would come to the door, that's how. They'd seen him do it many times, when anything occurred on the block, he was one of those who probably couldn't resist looking out; coming outside/neighbors knew him; he'd probably bought fundraising items, signed petitions, etc.; was known for being involved in bettering his community. I'm like that; whenever someone's selling something door-to-door, I buy it. Or I used to. I had recently realized I had been ripped off for several hundred dollars when all the door-to-door stuff seemed to evaporate.

And immediately thereafter, Biloxi turned in to the sewer it is today.
Seriously , is it a shithole now ?
Rest in peace Jim kallstrom . Excellent show. The Mafia was going down big time then.
Are you sure he's gone?
he covered up some major crimes
You gotta give the Chin props for his game.

My grandmother use to tell me stories of the streets of ny in the 80s , mafisos everywhere
I like the theme music at the start of this documentary its a classic
What a shame that the FBI has lost so much credibility under Comey and Wray. Turned into a political weapon. ☹️
Exactly .. if it wasn’t for commies lame accusations before 2016 elections, trumpy wouldn’t have won and the country would be in a better shape. Way to go man, great minds think alike✊🏿
Robert Mueller was an evil dude also...
My thoughts exactly - its a disgrace, actually.
That's bull trump tried to use it as his flunkies rules don't apply to trump that's why I hope he gets his it's about time
It has ran its cycle. Red tape is all that's stopping it being dismantled and rebuilt. They've done it before, and it's long overdue doing it again.
It’s amazing how someone can grow into a murderer . From that sweet little 8-9 year old boy into someone who can shoot a woman dead is unbelievable .
RIP❤
Some people grow up around a certain culture, happy I wasn’t raised like that
Thanks for the FULL BLOODED ITALIAN FILES !
52 counts and the mastermind of a murder gets only 18 years and everybody gets life. Go justice

Idk... Sicily is real close to Italy. We used to fly in there from time to time. Funny seeing those guys on mopeds with shotguns hangin' out the back. 😂@@TylerSmith-ej1fo
Italia is part of siciliano.

Noti gang
How did Peter Halat knew that both the judge and his wife were dead if he only walked into the front of the house and didn't go to the back of the house where the wife's body was in the master bedroom and couldn't have seen her body? He would have had to have prior knowledge snd he tried to create a false alibi with his assistant.
you’re a god damn genius
You've got some serious skills! 💪
John Gotti was snarky & arrogant and that was his downfall.
Plus his big mouth!Apart from that he took his punishment like a man!Unlike 🐀🐀Gravano!
Great 👍
53:17 Hah! Used to live a few blocks from that funeral home.
Is it there still?
@@vegas7105 Looks like it. Racuglia Funeral Home on Court St.
did you ever get that bbq smell that is the crematorium smell
@@gotacallfromvishal Don't think they had a crematorium onsite.
Interesting/informative/entertaining.
And in the end the casinos won.
Can’t believe they were getting down in biloxi-Gulfport like that 😂
Michael fransses and Sammy Garvano in today's times are the men to listen to about these times in history straight from the life off the men themselves I like that shit that's legendary
I’m pretty sure the recreation has a flaw. When Pete entered the house, it looked like there was a hand hanging off the couch while the judge was on the floor. This puts both bodies in the same room. Later it is said Pete didn’t have enough time in the house to find the wife dead, given she was in the back of the house
Huh interesting.. plus didn't we watch her get killed in her bedroom?
Also, I've never heard of this case before but exactly when Halat (Pete) asked his coworker to take a ride with him to the Sherries home I immediately felt something was up... Then when he asked the coworker to go around back and check the back door while he checked the neighbor I knew for sure that he was in on it in some way, shape or form.
The hand is the judge's hand. His upper arm is on the floor, while his lower arm is up against the couch (making an L shape), and his wrist is bent. You can see it when they walk in around 7:45
😊
Pay someone to Kill two people and get a whopping 15 years. This is injustice. We need to wake up scream about this grotesque undersentencing.
I sure do miss thee, cars 🚗 we had , in thee, 40 '50 ' 60' 70"s, 80 's.
Back when the FBI was still cool
Any Sicilian can tell you that there is no such thing as the Mafia.
And their full of shyt too
The Mafia controls Palermo from A to Z , Alcamo, Castallamare del Golfo , Trapani salt, marble for middle east. Known fact 100% if you are Sicilian..Everyone knows that common knowledge. Just 😮 la cosa....
Lol

Do you have new episodes???? We tired watching again and again the same episodes!!!!!
There are new episodes. The show no longer exists
RiP Jim Kallstrom😢😢😢
An invigastiver journalist can always be a good agent.
You must have a high IQ.
Be real, clever, smart and understand that everything is a circle.
Otherwise you will look the roses from the other side.
This jobs are very hard because nobody of your love ones know is hi still allive tomorrow and that can destroy your mind set.
All the best Jim, R.I.P. and enjoy your life on an other level. You earned it.🙏🍀✨️
A cop on the payroll?! Go figure.
SHOCKING AINT IT !!!!!!!
excellent show!
In the beginning those kids reciting the Pledge of Allegiance when they got to the part, one nation, what should have followed was under God, that part was skipped. I don’t know if the kids skipped it, or when the film was put together if they edited out the words under God. Under God is part of the Pledge of Allegiance so I don’t know why people think it should be removed. Disappointing.
they wanted to exclude God..I hope God will not exclude them when tribulations come.
If we're "under God" then God has a fucked up sense of humor
Under God was a late addition to the POA. It was added in 1954. The Pledge originated in 1892.
Excellent show. The Mafia was going down big time then
Get some new material pal. In other forms, the mafia is alive and well.
The Mafia is still alive and actually performing better than ever with new tactics. You're lost.

That Lenny did enjoy his smokes ....
Was Chin gigante named "chin" because of the way his chin looks, or because he could take a punch?
cause his chin big like jay leno
His name chingante
His mother began calling him Chincenzo, a diminutive of his name Vincenzo, due to the fact that there were so many boys in the neighborhood with this same name. Instead of calling out Vincenzo, she would call "Chincenzo" and thus he became known in the neighborhood as Chin
A lot of times the Chin nickname is to Asians bc China-Chin.. My friend group in college had a 'Chin' that I had no clue that was the root of his nickname until his wedding yrs after we graduated when I heard the story from a childhood friend. I was flabbergasted as Im only 31 its not like this was that long ago haha but I guess its common
Short for Vincenzo.
Carlos Gambino?
That wasn’t a Ford Fairmont, so they couldn’t find one for this episode and just a Crown Victoria. 😅
Please keep in mind this is late 1980s Gambino families have no power stronghold or any hold in the streets of New York City today.!
I'm just keeping it as real as it is witnessed in the streets of New York today.!
You're right. They don't. Hahaha
When the narrator described Gambino's first name, it sounded like he said Carlos, not Carlo, which would be Gambino's correct first name.
Halat, some friend. Should of got more time.
Damn she lost her life trying to prevent the inevitable! DAMN!!😢
Actually she didn’t…
Seems everyone missed that she was taking money too…
Or did I make that up?!?!
Pete was able to say she stole the $100k that’s why the hit was initiated!!!
1:58:29 is that Big Paulie, surprised no gunshot wounds almost at all in his shirt area.

Amazing story!😮
Worst thing the feds ever done - went afther the Cosa Nostra. Now there are no rules, no respect, no recognition.
The problem started from within. The newer generations thought they knew better than their predecessors. The respect and rules degraded. This left weaknesses that made it easy for the FBI to infiltrate.
Paul castellano was the godfather wasn’t he ?
He got murdered

Take notice how we “Italians" aren’t offended lol.
Who said.
As an Italian-American, I find the title of this post offensive. The Mafia comprises a minuscule fraction of Italians. Imagine if a video about Jewish mobsters was titled “The Jews.” Holy Hell would be raised. But somehow many people have no problem with Italians being stereotyped.
As a full-blooded Italian American, myself who grew up in an Italian dominated NY borough and lived for a while in a protected neighborhood, and while my Italian pride centers on the Renaiisance - don't bullshit yourself. The mafia was very much dominated by Italians or Italian Americans from southern Italy and Sicily. I've known several people who were "connected" and had some in my extended family. I take no pride in that, nor am I ashamed of it. It's part and parcel of the culture. Lying about that doesn't create an alternate reality.
My father is Sicilian and married with two sons and a daughter. My mother is born American, descended from slaves. I've been told I am the product of a man that lost a bet to friends of his so here I am. Referred to as a "moolie" by my father's family and "you ain't one of us, we found you and felt sorry for you, that's the only reason you're here." If there is a "hell", it's not "holy" and it's more like being rejected by family members because your parents "had to scratch an itch/drunk/high" or whatever.
Dixie Mafia is not Italian and was active in Biloxi. The NOLA crime family was very active in the illegal slot machine business and insurance scams. They are Silician.
Nothing new.
May you rest in peace Jimmy Kalstrom we love you buddy
Why would a judge answer the doorbell after dark, I wonder. I guess an age of innocence. But not in Buloxi; it's the Dixie Mafia; law-enforcement was aware of them and so the judge would have had them on his radar. Such a dumb crime; how in the hell did they get him to come to the door. They had already been stalking him for months and knew he would come to the door, that's how. They'd seen him do it many times, when anything occurred on the block, he was one of those who probably couldn't resist looking out; coming outside/neighbors knew him; he'd probably bought fundraising items, signed petitions, etc.; was known for being involved in bettering his community. I'm like that; whenever someone's selling something door-to-door, I buy it. Or I used to. I had recently realized I had been ripped off for several hundred dollars when all the door-to-door stuff seemed to evaporate.
Why would a judge answer the doorbell after dark YOU ASK ? BECAUSE HE FELT HE WAS UNTOUCHABLE AND STUPID AT THE SAME TIME!
I don’t answer my door in the middle of the day if I’m not expecting anyone 🤷🏽♀️
@@vegas9440 well at home during daytime, I like door open so I can see out. Have to remember to latch! Neighbors around here will poke in head and holler if my car us there and I don't answer door! (Small town.)
Do a documentary on the Albanians or the Bulgarians, for a change !
The women always get a short sentence.
And since when do someone's Nationality have to precede The Episode??? A little Prejudice maybe??
Since the title is called The Italians!
