After 30 years, justice had finally caught up with the man who once bragged he'd murdered enough people 'to fill a cemetery'.

He could fill a whole cemetery single handed … what a quote
Frighting statement in itself. A boss of the bosses
He didn't say he "could " he said he did 😆
@@zzhughesd simply a horrendous psychopath, and hence nothing to be proud of.
@@zzhughesd there is nothing to estimate considering that he sent many children to that cemetery, such as the young Claudio Domino, only 11 years old
Di u know any stories on him ? Documentaries?
This guy killed men, women and children. Pure evil.
is that a star wars reference there
He's pretty much close to his death and has lived his life. What about his younger replacements?
I just clicked over to this video from another one where a prosecutor is doing that to set up for the "mafia trial of the century"
@@lemonj8216 I heard that as well. Check BBC maybe. Its about the life of the man capturing them. Its going to be a very long trial
What should be done to solve this problem? free him? He's a killer and it's only right that he pays at any age, also 60
Melone 🍈 replace him
@@capixabatupinamba come grab me with a boat I need one of thems cigars. Bet you're the most qualified here to discuss lol
30 years on the run, this is beyond any movie scenario. Somewhere in the Italian media it is said that he declared, killed with his own hands and could filled a whole cemetery on his own. wtf
Well a sphycowhent do dunblane in Scotland uk took a gun and shot every man woman and small child in that school the children were so young.
He lasted longer then most mexican drug lords thats pretty impressive bassicly only El Mayo is longer free
He has killed by bombing two hero judges: Falcone e Borsellino who instructed the maxi trial for over 300 charged for mafia) who have defied "cosa nostra" the so called the family who won the mafia war and replced the old mafia killing the all one, He also ordered to kidnapp ,kill, and melted into the acid a child!! The loser old Mafia did not accept that women and children were killed, nor cross revenge and drug dealing!!
Provenzano was 43 year on the run.he never left sicily.
He clearly handed over himself following an agreement, he wasn’t arrested. Not even handcuffs for him
they didn't consider it necessary because it was super-supervised, they know what they're doing, get informed before opening your mouth.
@@gabrielemangialavori8732 who informed you?? Keeping the mouth shut is something that is Italian I guess … stop defending the mafia and grow up
Learn the laws in Italy you dumbass. None of the mafioso shown in the press pictures when arrested have handcuffs. It’s seen as them being guilty before a trial, so they either don’t have them on or they are blurred out in photos.
@@LsServerdefending the mafia? He’s not wrong. There’s like a dozen officers there and he has cancer. He wouldn’t make it 5 feet
Wrong! He wasn't for 30 years on the run. He was Alpha for 30 years. And now that he is old and weak, his status has been challenged by someone new who wants him gone. This is how things work in mafia world.
Living in an address in the same town for 30 years is not on the run. I thought that was fishy, also fishy that the reports are not saying it's fishy
Can he define a woman?😂
Actually sicilan mafia is still backed at a high political level. Just in a different way then the past. Many also think this arrest follows a sort of negotiation of mafia with the statal power for an exchange between Messina Denaro and other mafia bosses like Filippo and Francesco Graviano currently in prison (known for being friends of Berlusconi back in the 90s before their arrest).
Denaro must have lost his political value and become worth more in jail than out
@@JOEFABULOUS.what if he’s actually being set up ?
After WW2, America decided that instead of allowing the Socialists and communists (who had been fighting the Nazis all along) to take power, they would send over a bunch of italian American mobsters to run Sicily.
@@Dingledingthink maybe ..
@@goldencat3844 What if his “Gods” set him up ?🤣
His wardrobe costs more than my house.
If police or law governing agencies wanted to arrest they would have done long ago when politicians doesn't interfare
Woah 😮 I think I saw a Netflix documentary about him and remembered his name. They did say that police were hunting him and he is on the run and police had tracked his girlfriend way back. I remembered thinking that time ya man he must be dead how can someone be on the run for 30 years 😢forget it. And this is unbelievable. Can’t wait to watch new movie on him. Job well done be pd.
Haha same I remembered the name from that show 😄😂
makes John Gotti look like a Walmart shoplifter
This made me laugh because it’s so true. John gotti was Mickey Mouse compared to these kinda guys.
He also was behind the kidnapping, death and following corpse melting with acid of a collaborate justice's 12yo son
What J.Gotti has to do with all this?
Congrats to the police who found the n1 public ennemy living in his village for over 30 years.
It was there in the last 6 months.
Also it is much easier to control the territory for bosses like that when they stay near home. They know everyone, every police officer, they can control anything that happens.
Licence revoked. Let's not judge or pass comment. This Man has other trails.
Victory...May this heinish murderer be fully...brought to justice
He doesn't look like he had plastic surgery so he was himself the whole time. The authorities missed him in plain sight??
Nieve to think the cosa nostra is finished as it was probably them who shopped him in the first place. My guess is he was already replaced because he had cancer and was dying. Giving him to the authorities gives them a free ticket.
u on 🔥
The Sicilian mafia is a shadow of its former self due to excessive violence by this guy and toto Rina
Yes, there`s a video from Nov 2022 where an ex boss explains and predicts that in January (now) Matteo messina denaro will turn himself in to the authorities in exchange of some favours. Now we know he was right
@@diseasefire the BBC reporter claimed he'd lost his political influence and usefulness so had been given up by those who had found him useful in the past worth more in jail than out to them so to speak
@@JOEFABULOUS. yup must be the case! And also mafia had something nice in return as on the 30/12/2022 the new law that reduces jail time for mafia was approved (ergastolo ostativo). The whole thing gives me the creeps
I think the Italian police sirens are so effective. I remember back in the 1980s in Rome and the armed police in one car were hanging out with guns ready and sirens blaring. It looked like it was a government VIP in the following motorcade. Everyone stopped and got out of the way.
They used to scare me when I was young 🤣
Yeah, our sirens are really scary. Remember when buying heroin in Padova, in Anelli road (Rings street) back then in early 2000. I particalury remember THAT siren activation.
@@valentinotera3244 A fantasist's fantasy!!😂😂😂
@@nev7711 Fantasy what. It's a real pieces of my life.
Actually the boss was arrested not by the police but by the “carabinieri ROS” a special kind of mix of police and army.
I think the non-torture policy should have an exemption for Costa Nostra. They need to get the others.
So the solution is to act in the same way they do?
@@eleonorap.8067 Not at all. The mob tortures and murders innocent citizens, uninvolved relatives, and honest civil servants. That is obviously not what I proposed. There is a very stark difference between a mafia terrorist and a random person commuting to work: the two are entitled to asymmetrical treatment based on their actions. Giving Italian jihads witness protection programs in exchange for info clearly isn't a deterrent to the crime, and is not a sufficient punishment.
Damn! Who snitched on the Boss? Do y’all think he’ll cooperate with the government?
One would have thought that Toto Riina was actually behind the Falcone and Borsellino job.
"There he is!"
You can't have a bandit if you don't have a smoky
Done well most mafia bosses don’t live or get to enjoy there youth he did enjoy your rest
Was he really on the same island all that time attending hospital and receiving treatment without giving his identity?
Come on , you arrested a dead man. Cancer gonna get him soon anyway.
Politicians are more dangerous ... and nothing is happening to them...
I am Italian and I basically agree with the professor that is interviewed in this video. The old Sicilian mafia is dead, as far as I remember there has not been a single mafia murder in Sicily for years. The old "mafiosi" are dead or in prison, and only Matteo Messina Denaro was missing from the wanted list. The problem is that the financial capital generated by their activities has been invested across the world, and it is likely that many descendants of the old "mafiosi" can be found in London, and you think that they are brilliant managers who have come to make investments in one of the many financial capitals of the world...
Just because there's been no murders doesn't mean they've gone. Murders are always the last resort as it creates attraction which is bad for business
The cosa nostra model doesn't work in the 21 century. The Ndrangeta from Calabria has a more effective and more adaptable way of operate according to our times. The cosa nostra model is shadow of their former self in both sides of the Atlantic (is more a myth than anything now). I mean if you take teeth and fangs to a wolf still a wolf however.
sicilian mafia is still alive and very active, there is a list long as your legs of indictments against them in the latest years
They lost power but they are gaining it again and reason why they still have gained it all back is cause of their competitor ndrangheta
Now Now,
he got 1 job and filled a cemetery, bombs 2 judge , became mafia Boos and earned 2-3 billion from drugs. he got things done , you have to give it 10/10 for that
Tone, you give this guy a golf club, he'll probably try and.....
Duck it
He may be old and some may believe he won't be punish enough but I am here to let you know that God's punishment will be great
Glad they caught the pos.
The show must go on 😂😂😂 give the people what they want.
Why is he wearing my leather jacket
The real godfather in Sicily and all lol
Guy is no more evil than any corporate CEO .
Hey man, and i thought he had the cops in his back pocket? No? This must be fate then.
What?? Since when did you need to be from the city of Palermo to be a top mafia leader?? Where did you hear this one from?? According to this guy, if you are from out of Palermo you can't become a boss? Ma che cazzo dici 🤣
H e doesn't know what he's talking about
The Corleonesi ran the show for 30 years that’s not Palermo
Exactly... And neither is Castelvetrano, one of the major strongholds...
He is a big fan of Resident evil 4. His jacket looks like Leon Kennedy
I was expecting to see Boris Johnson's name
World must be free of any kind of mafia.
but what about future movies?!
Just one cornetto
Give it to me
You must be joking,they’re 50p
Not Even In Handcuffs go figure
No handcuffs in Italy if you don't oppose your arrest. And he was surrounded by police anyway
@@Marco_franceschini 😉
Wiseguys forever ..
Watching to many movies. The mob guys in Italy are not cheeky rascals. This guy killed a pregnant woman and killed children's. Very cool 😎 guy
Catching an old man when he’s close to his death bed and call it “celebration”? This tells u the police are so useless they always come “last minute” 😂
Im italian and my country Is One of the mist beatifull in the earth but mafia Is destroing It
Missing for 30 years and where did they find him? Brazil? Cuba?
No. In Sicily.
He is not a narcos. He is a boss. He controls his territory, even the pd there
He must love his cannoli
@@lovelyjubbly34😂💀
What a legend. 30 years on the run without ever leaving his home country.
He was born & raised in Sicily, mf didn’t even leave his Block!
Legend?
Bernardo Provenzano ( one of the member of Cosa Nostra commission), was on the run for 43 years before he was arrested in the 2006, in a farm close his town (Corleone), while eating sheep-goat cheese and drinking red wine
@@maurizio5242 Now that's fucking dope. ✌️ man went down sipping fine vino.
Not just his country but his own city😂
@@heresjohnny602lol leave it to white ppl idolizing crime by other white ppl. If this guy was black you would be calling him an animal. You ppl are funny
I don't know who this guy is but he doesn't know how the Mafia works. The Corleonesi nearly wiped the Palermo bosses off the map they ran most of them out of Sicily. You don't have to be from Palermo to be a top mafia boss, Matteo Messina Denaro and his two bosses before him are prime examples.
Toto wiped out the Palermo bosses and then moved to Palermo but Matteo lived outside Palermo
@@stockstock6805 But Toto Riina was never part of the Palermo clans he was Corleonesi.
I just commented the same before reading your comment. Diabolic was the capi di tutti capi, otherwise he would have been handed over as a good will gesture a long time ago.
@@stockstock6805 so did Bernardo provenzano. If my boss was target 1 I would go and live far away in the countryside.
@@donvitocascioferro4040 yeah but once he took over, he moved permanently to Palermo. He wasn't just boss of Corleone but boss of bosses(everything) and the Epicenter of everything Cosa Nostra in Sicily is Palermo just like NY is the epicenter of Cosa Nostra in America. If u control Palermo, u control Cosa Nostra in Sicily. Same thing with NY
as an Italian I can say that he was no longer influential as a mafia boss.
indeed, he is currently terminally ill with cancer so there is a suspicion that he has ''sacrificed'' to get something in return.
The Netflix version of his story will appear shortly.
Yeah and he will be played be Morgan Freeman 💀👍
Only caught him because he was in hospital getting treatment 🤕
You have sympathy for a mass murderer who brags about it?
Them local residents thanking the Filth, looked just like coppers. The balaclavas wete a pointer. Why make such a reporting error?
This makes me think about Italian police and justice system. How he was able to hide about 30 years?
Bernardo Provenzano, one of the most important member of Cosa Nostra commision,
was on the run for 43 long years😮
Idiots from politics in Italy... " we show that the mafia can be beaten " after 30 years and was never found. The system works well :)
There is too much crime. I like to see these gangsters going to jail. Keep it up Carabinieri! 👍
He has been there for 30 years. As romantic as it sounds that he has been “found” I question it. There are many things that are needed to be in place for 30 years worth of being “on the run”
It would take a number of those things to fail for him to be caught. More likely either his safety could no longer be guaranteed internally or they had enough of protecting him from the outside. So lost support or dethroned… internally. He was no longer a reliable or effective source… externally
This is the most realistic idea I’ve heard. Might be true, won’t tell you how I know 😊
He will be free soon to receive treatment he will be ok.
No one does that. Once a boss always a boss there is purpose
And it is not called boss you don’t know anything about pasta
il a assassiné Giovanni Falconi et Borsellino et des centaines d'autres personnes avec sang froid et il se vente d'avoir fait cela....puis il va finir une vie paisible et tranquille en prison.... quelle justice !!!!
Sickest jacket
Let them all be arrested for the safety of the Italian people
He is a retired mafia. Nothing changes. It’s business as usual.
So what .they still gonna pay next week
So the Johny Depp and Angelina Jolie's movie "The Tourist" was a true life story.
Not sure why this is even relevant nowadays! The other families pretty much run the Mediterranean and will continue to do so.
Ite not a job well done having lived in Italy for a year they don't go after the young powerful ones
On the run in Palermo 👍 obviously never ran anywhere 🤭
Totto reiina and Bernardo provenzano weren't from Palermo. I think diabolic was the capi di tutti capi, otherwise he would have been sold down the river a long time ago.
As long as you are Sicilian, that's details.
Must of ran out of cash for backanders for the appropriate ppl
Did they find his address on hunters laptop? 😂
That was not Asshole funny Dark Brandon has risen
Was he a boss or just a wanted killer made to live life on the lam away from home???
The tories have blamed harry and Megan
Noo
Got some information on a grass that could of ratted u out ?
There is no mafia in UK... really?
No not on this scale. Most British organised crime is semi organised crime apart from foreign imports like Eastern Europe and the Russians.
London is the money laundering capital of the world. All the major organizations in Europe have investment there.
Do you guys know how many jobs he created?
Gravediggers, coffin makers etc. Many jobs.
@@Marenqo and hitmen

No Mafia in the U.K.? 🤣😂🤬🤡
Meanwhile bloods and crips operate in the open with immunity
Bloods and Crips caused less damage compared to what the Italian mob did over the course of decades.
Tutti Calabrés sonó buoni,,,
Good for tv you tube subscribers..
He's done his time in life lol how bad it is now probably cheaper in jail lol
Residents thanks the police:)))))after 30 years on the run who knows him :)))))
There is alredy somebody
Dead.
I thing is not him
It's the man who knows the most of Bergolio or current pope.
He might of staged his arrest, now he needs them to take care of him and give him his free health care like he wanted, so i guess the jokes on the system.
What????
The Sicilian Mafia will continue “Cosa Nostra”.
alfa romeo every where lol
GEORGE BUSH IS NEXT...
He wasn't on the run, he's was living in plain sight. Gosh you have no clue how this stuff works 🤣 they make a deal then let themselves get captured.
They done arrested giorno
Free my guy
Love the picture you
