Gambino boss shot dead

[Palumboism]

No one knows right now. The leading theory is that might have something to do with the #3000 pounds of cocaine that just got found -

Interesting times for people that follow organized crime. Carmine Persico dead, Gene Gotti out, Bananno bosses freed. This is the 3rd highly visible mob related killing in about 6 months in the NY tristate after years of peacefulness. Plus you've got a lot of Latin and Eastern European gangsters quietly gaining power.

More than three decades of Mafia peace has been shattered by the murder last night of Gambino crime family boss Francesco 'Franky Boy' Cali.

Cali, 53, was shot six times and run over by a pickup truck outside his redbrick house in the upmarket Todt Hill neigborhood of Staten Island.

His wife and young children were inside the house and one man, believed to be a family member, ran outside, collapsed and cried, 'Papa! Papa!'

Cali's murder is the first hit on a Mafia boss since John Gotti arranged the assassination of then-Gambino head Paul Castellano in 1985.

This is the first Mob boss that's been hit since Paul Castellano in 1985.  There could be a war between the family's.

I wonder if the hit was ordered or random.

That would obviously make the difference.

My Great Uncle was a Bookie in Cincinnati. Not the Mafia kind, the white trash kind.

Definately ordered, pickup truck running over a dead body is sending a message.

I heard that many of the hits have to come from Sicily. If that is the case, and the hit was ordered from the TOP, then no retaliation can be done.

Obviously, just what I have read/heard.

Crazy to think there may be a mob war in NYC.

They just had a press conference on this -

Younger male hits Cali's car, Cali comes out and talks to him for about about a minute, then suspect fires 12 shots (9mm) at him hitting him multiple times.

Cali wasn't run over. They think he was running around the car trying to avoid the shots and maybe get under the car, and fell in the street causing people to think he was run over.

They have the murder on video.

First 5 or 10 minutes here - https://newyork.cbslocal.com/video/4046872-nypd-news-conference-on-killing-of-frank-cali/ .

There's also supposedly an internal memo around NY police departments warning about MS-13 attacking around now and next week IIRC.  Strange how all of these things are coming together.  Could NY actually purge illegals without the bad po-po, and Dems being held accountable somehow???

I literally question everything now.  I'm not a 9/11 troofer or anything like that, but it seems nothing is to be taken at face value anymore.

Some YT clip came up with that Rich Dad Poor Dad author, and he had a quote that was sooooo true, and great advice for the times we are living in.  He said....

"A statement closes the mind. A question opens it up"  (think I got it right, but the message is the same)

We'll just leave it all at that.

Of course it was ordered. It would never be random.

[SF1900]

I didn’t mean random as in some random guy walking down the street.

Random as in they weren’t ordered by the higher ups and took matters into their own hands.

I've been around some connected guys, bartended at a bar were some connected guys would come in. We took care of them first no matter what and it was always a hundred dollar tip each time they would order. One guy was an "enforcer" freshly out of jail, he was into bodybuilding and he nicknamed me "flex." This same guy started a brawl one night, knocked out 3 guys, cops were called, he runs out the bar, jumps on his Harley and tries to make a run for it, cops corner him in and arrest him. Not sure what happened to the guy, but he looked a lot like Mike Quinn the bodybuilder.

Reminds me of the time Mike Quinn was in a night club had his face broken by a bottle that a mob guy was holding.

Not random. Police say it was well orchestrated. Only question is was it sanctioned or the start of a Mob war
