@@jace5471 You got that right. He literally has zero first hand knowledge nor experience in any of the organized crime fairy tales he lies about. His ridiculous wannabe lies are literally debunked as fast as he spits them out. Too many people have lived, and are too familiar with that "business" and some on this channel are kin to the people he actually lies about and pretends he knew or associated with. He literally tells viewers that he "aggregates" and "amalgamates" his fairy tales from other people's actual life history. The guy was clearly nothing more than a broke, low level, low life, street level criminal that was so broke that he was declared indigent and required the services of the states public defender and consequently received "as much justice as he could afford. Recognizing that he is a descendant of a lineage of mentally unwell and often institutionalized relatives, his depraved and delusional antics are not surprising. What is surprising is the amount of potential wrongdoing he admits to and continues, along with his cohorts to perpetrate overtly on social media and that law enforcement seems remiss.
Johnny, eastside Detroiter here. I usually love your vids but this dude was capped out. He’s a spectator at best, if he ever lived a mob lifestyle he definitely didn’t do it here in the city let alone on the east. Keep going hard tho bro
@@TyronMoore-pk3xi again, I said IF he lived that life, it wasn’t over in that area. Never said he was faking the persona I said he never ran shit on the eastside.
@@futchobishh3929LOL I literally dame up in yne east side , was convicted of extortion, bank robbery, and 17 capital crimes I caught on the east side. I guess you could say I was about that life. And yes my grandfather was cousins with she very close to Jack Tocco. If some trill told you otherwise. It's a well known fact that my grandpa Rand the young men's club at Holly Family, and the entire mob was part of it. I lived with grandparents for my whole life. Family functions to church, I saw them all the time. My uncles and cousins. 😂 Was NOT in the mafia or claimed I was. I never told him that. Never told anyone that. I simply shared a few stories form my life. And believe me, I was about that life. I didn't do 13 years in prison for tragic tickets.
Dude making this video claims the dude is a mafia enforcer but dude claims he's not a mafia enforcer yet he sits there bragging about his 17 capital offenses and his bank robbery oh you're so proud of yourself about going to prison so many times look at you typical Detroit product I'm from Grand Rapids and you know what I'm proud of I'm 51 years old been to jail twice for a grand total of 18 hours I had parents that raised me right that's what I'm proud of not the fact that I'm a multiple time prison b****

Seriously- its obvious that you're serious about building your channel and your brand. With all due respect, you're not doing yourself any justice by platforming that pathological lying wannabe. Hes obviously disrespecting you and your channel, your viewers and your brand by treating you like a rube, another mark as he just continuously tells ridiculous antisocial depraved lies that you and everyone watching knows are lies. You've done a lot of work and no telling how much time and resources you have invested in your channel and hes literally doing irreparable damage to your credibility and your channel. Hes clearly unwell and literally manic and hyperventilating while trying to foist ridiculous fairy tales and depraved lies every second hes able to speak. You did an excellent job trying to ignore his charade and minimize the lunacy but it's still very obvious and down right disrespectful to you and your brand. Peace.
Hardcore lies.I've lived in Detroit for 37 years and I didn't understand half of what he was talking about.And I know way more about greek and Italian immigrants, then he does.That's for damn sure
Johnny is a huge bullshiter too. They are the same person. Johnny wasn’t working for the cartel. He said the other day he was selling 10 pounds of weed for $100k. He doesn’t even know how much drugs cost. 😂
I live in Canada. Every summer I used to go to Detroit with a friend to see the "Woodward Dream Cruise". Best place to see American muscle cars. Detroit is a story of 2 cities. Very rich and very poor. From Auburn Hills to the 8th mile, and everywhere in-between.
@@matt1315s is that where he talks about his imagery tunnel connecting houses. His channel convinced me less, he also talks like a scammer. His stories don't make sense
@@matt1315s BRo there is an entire channel dedicated to exposing this guy the actual Detroit guys have a family member who started the channel to expose that they arent related to him. u should do ur research before u tell someone wrong
@spatialmemory5040 💯. Johnny Mitchell is a plant for the prison industrial complex. An actor being paid to sell the criminal lifestyle to ensure the machine keeps churning.
LOL I can't. I just can't.🙄 You're right. I literally posted my genealogy on my youtube. The video is called "So where's the lie?" Have a listen . I literally had a booth selling my books and merch at the Italian festivals two years in a row. I saw my whole family. From uncles and cousins to aunts, to nieces and nephews who had only heard of me because they were babies when I went to prison. . My grandfather was Jack Tocco's 2nd cousin. They were almost the same age. Went to the same schools, from elemtsry to high school. Their fathers, cousins of the same name, came from the same little neighborhood in Sicily, Terrisini. You think it was a coincidence they ended to living 3 blocks apart?😂 Men of the same name from the same tiny neighborhood across the world. Their fathers also cousins of the same name, from the same neighborhood, the same age, came up together. Their kids came up together
You need to do some research about the Holy Family Church that all the Sicilians in the neighborhood built. You will find that my great grandfather, Peter Ledo, a prohibition era guy came to Detroit a poor fruit vendor who only spoke Sicilian, was a millionaire within five years. He ones one of the biggest construction companies in Detroit. Never door a word of English. A millionaire in 5 years, in 1930ish. So do the math. He also helped build the Holly Family church, where the bike mob was baptized and sttenddd for like 50 years. It's well chronicled in the book " Holy Family Church - 100 Years of Sicilian Influence In Detroit." My grandfather is credited and thanks in the forward donating half the pictures in the book. 🙄 The young men's club there, Later known as the American legion Post (can't remember the number) was literally run by my grandfather Peter Tocco Senior. Now Guess who were all in that club? Yes, the entire mob. There are dozens of pictures of them in the book. So my grandfather, a man of the same name, who grew up with Jack Tocco, same schools, same age lived a few blocks apart, their fathers a were cousins from the old country, and ran the young men's club the whole mob was in, had no connection to the people?😂😂 I can't bro. I can't. Do you know how silly that sounds to me and everyone I know? I have nothing to prove. It's not rocket science. There is a couple haters who are trying to re-write history and say my life never happened. How come nobody from my family has ever tried to refute my claims? It will Never happen. Ever. EVER. Why? They known I'm just spitting facts. Or know every thing I say is plausible. Because nobody knew EXACTLY what I was doing for Tony Jack or some of my cousins. I didn't report my crime shit after I did it. I saw them at weddings and funerals, baptisms and church.
The shit I did for my uncles was between us. Nothing major but it is what it is. NONEONE will every try to refute my claims because they don't want to be on my bad side. Trust me, they actually knew me back then and knew what a freakin lunatic I was. They witnessed it my whole life. They heard all the stories. Saw articles in the paper. They talked to my grandparents weekly on the phone. So everyone knew. Do you think I could just come out and lie and tell these stories without recourse, and nobdiy would come out and call me a liar? Like say, no, we don't know him? 😂 If I was who I said I was, you'd understand why nobody has ever refuted anything. Not a single word. Why? Because they knew me. That's like if I say your life never happened. Would your family side with me? 😂 No. They would laugh. And they don't want no smoke with me. Why would they lie? They actually know me! They know my whole story start to finish. I still talk to some of them. They know of these 2-3 hater trolls I have, and think it's funny AF. Legit laughed at. They say "Al, if they only knew." They literally laugh. They bring up stories I totally forgot. At the Italian festival I got nothing but mad love from everyone. Hugs and kisses and welcome home, well done. Even the Boss's brother said he didn't give a shit about me telling my stories. Why would he? I sat there and told him a story about something I did for his uncle Tony Jack. His react words were, "Wish I would have known you back then, I would have paid you more." The so-called mob expert was standing on my booth 10 feet away while I had this conversation. The guy said he hated the "expert" whose name won't even say because he's a clown, because he (the expert) got so much shit wrong in his book. I'm just telling my truth, not claiming I was in the mob. But to say my grandpa wasn't connected to these men, of I didn't know them, kr I wasn't related, is absurd. Laughable for me and all my family. My wife posted my genololy. If you can't connect the dots, or don't believe because some hater trolls, or because I mispoke about who I thought my great grandfather was in some interview, well, makes me none. I don't give two fux what YT trolls think or say. I know my own life. And no ONE will ever come out and refute what I've said. Never happen. EVER. Facts! Because that means they'd have to be lying on me. In which case they would have a big problem. You're buying into hater troll shit, some mental case Gump I beat up 35 years ago. Believe what you want. I never said I was IN the mob. I never said I was anyone. It was the FBI who once called me an enforcer for the mob, not me. Look up Frank Witcher, my boy. I have mad pics with him. He was one of the 11 guys indicted in the Detroit mob 1996 RICO CASE on the whole hierarchy of the Detroit mob. He always drove me around when I came to Detroit before he died two years ago. If it wasn't for the RICO, you wouldn't have ever heard of him. He was nobody to me. Just a fat coke head wannabe. I was the gangster. He was just a schelp. He saw me as the real OG, yet he got incicged for the RICO with all the bosses. His brother loved me and messages me almost daily. I could go on, I could name 20 guys you've never heard of. Why?? No court docs, no fed files. Why? We didn't get caught. We were good at what we did. You have no idea how that llife works, or how my family worked. It's called Secrecy. Layers of guys. I was on the bottom rung but there nonetheless. I was around the mob my WHOLE life, and did some odd jobs for some old mob guys in my twenties. Sold dope with some guys my age. Did some rackets and scams.
f that's more than you can accept because there's no court doc on me or my my grandfather, or uncles Pete and Sal, makes me none. Facts are facts. My grandfather was related to Jack Tocco through his uncle, Paul Tocco Sr, who I didn't know well because he lived in Clinton Twp. But I knew his grandsons. They were my age and I went to school with them. Paul Tocco was was a capo I guess. This was my grandpa's 1st cousin. Saw each other weekly because both owned businesses in the Eastern Market, mob central. I was ONLY around the guys from Grosse Pointe. I didn't know the Zirelli guys. Didn't known Paul Tocco's crew. But The young guys I did know loved me because I was the tough guy who would smash youre head in for a buck, in a second. That's what Tony Jack liked about me. You get internet geeks saying I didn't know him, but again that's absurd. His daughter married my cousin. I didn't know him well. Why would I? He was an old man. I was a young punk. BUT, when he needed a little muscle, he called me a few times. Collections. Security night clubs, at poker games and casino nights. Slap a guy around who wasn't paying his vig. The exact same shit Frank Witcher was indicted for. These mob groupies and so called "experts" can't name a single guy from my generation. Not a single one. Maybe Jerry the Balde Bianchette, who was one of my best friend's cousins. I still talk to his cousin all the time. He FaceTimed me last week. He referred me two publishing clients. Jerry was murdered on the orders of Jack Tocco. I could go on. Bottom line is you people don't know anyone from my era. Zero. Know why? No court docs. No fed files. No rats. No informants. So according to you experts and mob groupies the Detroit mob ceased to exist with my generation?🙄 If you have a half a brain, it's easy to see what I say makes perfect sense. I was just a low level thug life grunt who was indeed family, and thus I had direct access to them my whole life. I grew up with them, naturally seeing them almost daily. Weekly for sure at church. But hundreds of family functions. So you think they just pretended I didn't exist when I started getting arrested and going to jail in my teens? 😂 Nah bro, a few old men and cousins my age liked me because I was violence for hire. I had balls. I did gangster shit. I sold dope. I robbed and beat people for them. Not because I wanted to be in the mob, but because (a) it was family and (b) it was money, I was only in it for the money. Honestly I saw them as weak. They called me when they needed a strong arm. I didn't call them. In the clubs, my cousins all gathered around me, I didn'tgatehr around them. I gave them a sense of security. I always have their backs in beefs. Why would I jock a bunch of geeky squares or fat old uncles I'd know since I could walk? Cousins my age were all pussies. I'd say it to their face right now. You have idea. I literally JUST sent one of them to have a "talk" with a guy who was giving a childhood friend of mine some trouble. One talk is all it took, and everything is smoothed out. Why? Because that cousin went to see them and said, "Youre going to have a problem if Al gets involved." That guy asked around and guess what all my cousins told him. Yeah, you know they told him "Al was a lunatic back in the day." And I was. It's why I went to prison for 13 years. You think they give out that kind of time for petty shit? Sadly, I was a total scumbag. But dangerous. Volitle. Fearless. And was known for knocking guys out with one punch in clubs or restaurants or wherever it had to be done to send a message. Anyone who knows me from back then will tell you that. LOTS of people knew me back then. TONS! I've had some on my show. I didn't go to prison for for traffic trickets. I was a bad apple. Nothing to brag about. My only point to sharing these stories is to promote my books or to illustrate what a change I've made in my life. You don't have to believe it, but your opinion won't change reality. I don't have to prove anything to anyone, but maybe hearing FACTS form my mouth will snap you into reality. Today I'm a good man. Honest, loving, kind, generous. I own an apparel company, a new publishing company and a Christian radio station. If I share my past life it's ONLY to juxtapose the change I've made, not to glamorize the scumbag I once was. The only THING you should find hard to believe is that I went from that guy to a best selling author, CEO of three companies, good husband, great friend, and devote Christian. Thats the ONLY thing remarkable about me. Nothing more, nothing less. But I find it ironic that the guys who hate on me and say I was none of this hide behind fake YT handles and make fake videos using fake voices, telling fake lies or using my words out of context , and claim I'm the fake. Nobody will confront me to my face. And if they ask around in an attempt to find someone from my family to discredit me, all they will find is people confirming everything I've said. But they know nobody, Hence nobody ever coming out. It's not rocket science dude.
@@gunnerdetroit Gummy your books suck. Nobody buys them even with your money back guarantee . You run scams and we have your pathetic apology and you trying to rat good thing Andrea got away from you
@Knightmessenger McClellan is not in Indian Village. Burns on the East, Mack on the North, Seminole on the West, Jefferson on the South. All those new names for part of the city that were traditionally just the Eastside. Is yt marketing tricks on other yts.
@Knightmessenger This is some contrived bullshit. Islandview is Jefferson South Boundary, Mack to the North, Mt. Elliott to the West, Baldwin to the East. Islandview is named for its proximity to Detroit's island park, Belle Isle. This name I never heard before. As a life long Detroiter? Who dreamed up this BS? It's disgusting what is going on in Detroit.
@butchjones1486 Never said McClellan was in Indian Village. I specifically mentioned East Village. As for who dreamed it up, the city recognizes many neighborhood names and many can be learned by either signage or Google maps.
This guy is a lie everything he talking about is bs 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Canada bud was never wanted in the 90s we hated it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 no one ever said let’s get Canada weed in Detroit 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’m not going to expose myself but let’s just say I know more about the drug trade than the average person from the city. We never wanted that bc bullsh*t from Canada. Importing a large amount of weed from Canada was never worth the risk because you could get sent to customs for no reason. Dude is a joke
I grew up a little north of Detroit and this dude has almost no credibility in my eyes. About a 1/5 of what he’s saying is true. I don’t know where he’s coming up with the rest of it.
The mafia were the ones to plug the big time black king pins first...Frank Nitty drove for the mafia street boss Tony Jack and Ppl like Eddie Jackson ect went thru the Italians for dope in the 60s-80s
I say this with all respect but there's no way this loud mouth asshole was affiliated with anyone real. Detroit Mob only dealt with their own family, that's why no one ever flipped unlike everyone else. They kept their numbers small, and did their thing the right way. Who on earth would hire this guy for anything other than being an actor or something. What a bullshitter he is.
It's a shame you had someone like Gunner on this video with you the guy is a complete fraud I was born and raised in Detroit that guy is a liar he was never in the life 💯
Detroit makes every other major city look healthy, happy, clean, fresh, maintained and booming especially if you living in growing cities like Dallas, Austin, Houston, Miami, Atlanta, Charlotte, Philly, Raleigh, and pretty much most cities in FL.
Hell ya! I been a subscriber and rocking with Gunner for like 5-6 yrs it seems like idk but I guarantee maybe not on this account but I guarantee you I was one of his first 100 subscribers
I know this guy might be cappin and embellishing his story but I like him. He's entertaining hahah Johnny has been killin it with the cont. Keep them comin!
This dude has to be a fake sports books and weed has been legal for a long time. No one is still hustling weed. And there’s no way he doesn’t know sports books are legal in Michigan. It’s been like four years weak video. Sorry
The Greeks Mafia was a thing in the 90s my Native American tribe from the Upper Peninsula got lobbied by them to build a casino in downtown Detroit. Then was pushed out by the “Greek Mafia” which is now Greektown Casino.
I was born in Detroit in 1958, all I know is we lived on Beechwood St, Detroit was starting to die out at that point, so my parents packed us up and moved to Los Angeles in 62'
Driving through the city on my way home from work right now, while there is some really bad neighborhoods, most people in Detroit and surrounding areas are good people, and I say this as a 39-year-old white male who lives in the suburbs. As long as you’re not looking for trouble, people are cool with you, but if it’s trouble you’re looking for, you will have no problem finding it. There is a sense of Detroit pride, though that loosely binds us all together, whites, and blacls, etc. this city, and surrounding areas might be the hardest working, most resilient, down to earth people anywhere. There is a lot of southern type of traits that people have because of the migration from the south up here decades ago to work in the auto industry and factories.
All the money has been spent on “Downtown” and not so much in the neighborhoods. I have a friend from Detroit and he says it’ll always be home to him and I’ve got to respect that.
I was raised in Detroit. Detroit definitely has areas that are desolate but there desolate because Detroit was built to be a City was no smaller than Americans 3rd largest(means you can fit 7 to 8 Bostons inside of Detroit) which a population that is around 600,000. That means that there are places where people simple don’t live anymore. Factories that have been abandoned because American ingenuity was left behind years ago. It’s a city that in my humble opinion represents America, still great, finding away to get its footing in a new world
The amount of bullshit spewed in this is honestly astonishing, first time viewer and wont be watching again. Shamefully not vetting your source enough to let him feed you all these lies and bogus🙄🙄🙄
ok so great video... but when was this shot? I mean it just dropped and a few bit into the video and the topic of legal betting in Michigan comes up and it has been legal for years. FyI some sort of disclaimer to give us perspective of the guy who is ridding with you and his information would be cool. If I was not thinking this was an older recording it would make some people from the area to wonder about his information. Just something to consider to add to your video discription. I love the content and am glad I have come across your channel
Gunner just told me he was Eminem’s manager in pre school!!! He just got caught up in the mafia as an ENFORCER but he won’t talk about that to No ONE!!! Also in Detroit you can go to any gunny mafia store give the Loanshark $1 and get a scratch off, bro been in every 3rd house in Detroit
@TyronMoore-pk3xi jack taco was worh a 100 they say he was at the top. Big and t 300 to 400 million cartel coke and think some old mob man had more money🤣they were nowhere near close to having more money or power fool I'm from detroit and we don't care about no Italians that live in the suburbs controll noting in the inner city but business 🤣🤣 yall so goofy
Gunner is a joke, talkin about emptying clips, what a wannabe. He didn't hit anything either is the the punchline. But what really is the give away hes talking about some people you hust dont talk about and you definitely dont talk about them on camera, let alone mention places that whomever might have or does frequent. I can't help but call BS on gunner.
I remember when it was houses on those blocks. 48215, 48214, 48207 and 48205 which probably the most dangerous zip code. During the 90’s everything off Chalmers and Gratiot was getting burned down on the daily.
I live right there off 8 mile and 94. A mile down at 7 and Kelly is the red zone. My good friend was just murdered a few months back in that neighborhood. Shit is sad, he left behind 7 kids
I was racking my brain trying to figure out where I know that cat Gunner from. He looks so familiar, and the name was absolutely familiar.... And then he dropped the (Rave/Nitro) game and my brain unlocked lmao. What up Gunner do you remember me? We used to run tanks and other "party favors" and shit together🤘 Above Noir leather ring any bells 😜 I won't get too specific but,...I used to love visiting the Dentist back then 😂
Next time you go to Detroit get up with Detroit Nina or someone who’s actually connected and talks to people so u can really feel the energy of the city this mf don’t know what he’s talking about so he know a lil history about the city but shit everybody do!
grew up and still live 20 mins out of detroit, this guy has absolutely no clue anything about the city. Im not a gangster wannabe but I do love history and crime plays a big part in history, I have no clue what this guy is talking about 😂
This shit is terrible. I could tell dog didnt know what he eas talking about soon as he said we got our weed from Canada. That might be true for a few of yall but before it was legal most the city got the good bows from az and the dirt from tx. Then cali hit and nothing was the same. Dog gotta be from royal oak
All we saying Johnny is u do great work all the time so we expect better from you especially when Detroit gets shitted on every fucking day by ppl like Stephen A smith and others when they don’t know the real Detroit and u had an opportunity to see it and get it out there but dropped the ball. Hope u do another video like this in the city
This video is so off. For 1 Detroit PD is much better than he describes. They do a great job. Yes, you used to have to wait a long time for calls, but they have gotten much better in the past 20 years. Secondly, Grosse Pointe never had a huge mob presence. Maybe a few mob bosses, but so did every nice suburb. Like every other big city. And I have never never gotten patted down at a pizza shop. Big thumbs down for this video. Next time, check your facts.
I'm a 70yr old disabled Veteran i was raised up in Detroit from 65- to 72 , 72 was when I joined the military i lived on 810 Lenox st. The East side Jefferson and Lenox and moved to Gross Point Park 118 Nottingham dr. We had to get out of the War Zone!! I loved Detroit Mo-Town Sounds Lou Rawls, Curtis Mayfield, Temptations, Aretha, The Ojays, Smokey Robinson, James Brown, and the list goes on and on!
genuinely sucks, i’d be more than happy to walk you around downtown and the streets to truly show and tell u about this cities history, this city and state go way back to the early 1600s with native lands and stories that run through now modern day detroit, missed such a good opportunity and didn’t get your source

Agreed! So much inaccuracy in this video. “Sports betting isn’t legal here yet” uhhh yes it is bro. This dude obviously isn’t a real Detroit resident.
Why are you putting quotes on everything?
@@arnold8746 cause hes quoting what the guy said in the video...
@@tonysopranooo1 He quoted every sentence in that comment lol
Seriously- its obvious that you're serious about building your channel and your brand. With all due respect, you're not doing yourself any justice by platforming that pathological lying wannabe. Hes obviously disrespecting you and your channel, your viewers and your brand by treating you like a rube, another mark as he just continuously tells ridiculous antisocial depraved lies that you and everyone watching knows are lies. You've done a lot of work and no telling how much time and resources you have invested in your channel and hes literally doing irreparable damage to your credibility and your channel. Hes clearly unwell and literally manic and hyperventilating while trying to foist ridiculous fairy tales and depraved lies every second hes able to speak. You did an excellent job trying to ignore his charade and minimize the lunacy but it's still very obvious and down right disrespectful to you and your brand. Peace.
Hardcore lies.I've lived in Detroit for 37 years and I didn't understand half of what he was talking about.And I know way more about greek and Italian immigrants, then he does.That's for damn sure
Johnny is a huge bullshiter too. They are the same person. Johnny wasn’t working for the cartel. He said the other day he was selling 10 pounds of weed for $100k. He doesn’t even know how much drugs cost. 😂

Wrong dude to take you around Detroit. A Michigan resident here. Again wrong dude.
Definitely wrong dude he don't even know nothing about detroit fr 😂

I'm not even from Detroit only been too Michigan once . Stayed right off woodward. What's the street name for Mexicantown?
Sports betting is legal in Michigan, yall was basically downtown
I call BS, and there are a lot of great Neighborhoods in the city
This bald guy don't have a clue what he's talkn about. He has zero facts! He's just guessing on the history of bldgs
Head to Ann Arbor and you're in another world...loved watching this! Idk what makes Detroit better, but I feel for people living in a hard situation.
Lol, you're in another world as soon as you cross the city line. You don't have to go to Ann Arbor.

Haahaha
You got that 100% correct. He's literally a pathological lying wannabe.

Right it's been legal over two years, this fool is an idiot!

This did Detroit no Justice damn bad move on this guy
No justice at all. Bro went to the worse neighborhoods he could find
who tf could lie about their own family and show their face after? this guys grandfather was not related to Jack Tocco at all
LOL I can't. I just can't.🙄 You're right. I literally posted my genealogy on my youtube. The video is called "So where's the lie?" Have a listen . I literally had a booth selling my books and merch at the Italian festivals two years in a row. I saw my whole family. From uncles and cousins to aunts, to nieces and nephews who had only heard of me because they were babies when I went to prison. . My grandfather was Jack Tocco's 2nd cousin. They were almost the same age. Went to the same schools, from elemtsry to high school. Their fathers, cousins of the same name, came from the same little neighborhood in Sicily, Terrisini. You think it was a coincidence they ended to living 3 blocks apart?😂 Men of the same name from the same tiny neighborhood across the world. Their fathers also cousins of the same name, from the same neighborhood, the same age, came up together. Their kids came up together
You need to do some research about the Holy Family Church that all the Sicilians in the neighborhood built. You will find that my great grandfather, Peter Ledo, a prohibition era guy came to Detroit a poor fruit vendor who only spoke Sicilian, was a millionaire within five years. He ones one of the biggest construction companies in Detroit. Never door a word of English. A millionaire in 5 years, in 1930ish. So do the math. He also helped build the Holly Family church, where the bike mob was baptized and sttenddd for like 50 years. It's well chronicled in the book " Holy Family Church - 100 Years of Sicilian Influence In Detroit." My grandfather is credited and thanks in the forward donating half the pictures in the book. 🙄 The young men's club there, Later known as the American legion Post (can't remember the number) was literally run by my grandfather Peter Tocco Senior. Now Guess who were all in that club? Yes, the entire mob. There are dozens of pictures of them in the book. So my grandfather, a man of the same name, who grew up with Jack Tocco, same schools, same age lived a few blocks apart, their fathers a were cousins from the old country, and ran the young men's club the whole mob was in, had no connection to the people?😂😂 I can't bro. I can't. Do you know how silly that sounds to me and everyone I know? I have nothing to prove. It's not rocket science. There is a couple haters who are trying to re-write history and say my life never happened. How come nobody from my family has ever tried to refute my claims? It will Never happen. Ever. EVER. Why? They known I'm just spitting facts. Or know every thing I say is plausible. Because nobody knew EXACTLY what I was doing for Tony Jack or some of my cousins. I didn't report my crime shit after I did it. I saw them at weddings and funerals, baptisms and church.
The shit I did for my uncles was between us. Nothing major but it is what it is. NONEONE will every try to refute my claims because they don't want to be on my bad side. Trust me, they actually knew me back then and knew what a freakin lunatic I was. They witnessed it my whole life.
They heard all the stories. Saw articles in the paper. They talked to my grandparents weekly on the phone. So everyone knew. Do you think I could just come out and lie and tell these stories without recourse, and nobdiy would come out and call me a liar? Like say, no, we don't know him? 😂 If I was who I said I was, you'd understand why nobody has ever refuted anything. Not a single word. Why? Because they knew me. That's like if I say your life never happened. Would your family side with me? 😂 No. They would laugh. And they don't want no smoke with me. Why would they lie? They actually know me! They know my whole story start to finish. I still talk to some of them. They know of these 2-3 hater trolls I have, and think it's funny AF. Legit laughed at. They say "Al, if they only knew." They literally laugh. They bring up stories I totally forgot. At the Italian festival I got nothing but mad love from everyone. Hugs and kisses and welcome home, well done. Even the Boss's brother said he didn't give a shit about me telling my stories. Why would he? I sat there and told him a story about something I did for his uncle Tony Jack. His react words were, "Wish I would have known you back then, I would have paid you more." The so-called mob expert was standing on my booth 10 feet away while I had this conversation. The guy said he hated the "expert" whose name won't even say because he's a clown, because he (the expert) got so much shit wrong in his book. I'm just telling my truth, not claiming I was in the mob. But to say my grandpa wasn't connected to these men, of I didn't know them, kr I wasn't related, is absurd. Laughable for me and all my family. My wife posted my genololy. If you can't connect the dots, or don't believe because some hater trolls, or because I mispoke about who I thought my great grandfather was in some interview, well, makes me none. I don't give two fux what YT trolls think or say. I know my own life. And no ONE will ever come out and refute what I've said. Never happen. EVER. Facts! Because that means they'd have to be lying on me. In which case they would have a big problem. You're buying into hater troll shit, some mental case Gump I beat up 35 years ago. Believe what you want. I never said I was IN the mob. I never said I was anyone. It was the FBI who once called me an enforcer for the mob, not me. Look up Frank Witcher, my boy. I have mad pics with him. He was one of the 11 guys indicted in the Detroit mob 1996 RICO CASE on the whole hierarchy of the Detroit mob. He always drove me around when I came to Detroit before he died two years ago. If it wasn't for the RICO, you wouldn't have ever heard of him. He was nobody to me. Just a fat coke head wannabe. I was the gangster. He was just a schelp. He saw me as the real OG, yet he got incicged for the RICO with all the bosses. His brother loved me and messages me almost daily. I could go on, I could name 20 guys you've never heard of. Why?? No court docs, no fed files. Why? We didn't get caught. We were good at what we did. You have no idea how that llife works, or how my family worked. It's called Secrecy. Layers of guys. I was on the bottom rung but there nonetheless. I was around the mob my WHOLE life, and did some odd jobs for some old mob guys in my twenties. Sold dope with some guys my age. Did some rackets and scams.
f that's more than you can accept because there's no court doc on me or my my grandfather, or uncles Pete and Sal, makes me none. Facts are facts. My grandfather was related to Jack Tocco through his uncle, Paul Tocco Sr, who I didn't know well because he lived in Clinton Twp. But I knew his grandsons. They were my age and I went to school with them. Paul Tocco was was a capo I guess. This was my grandpa's 1st cousin. Saw each other weekly because both owned businesses in the Eastern Market, mob central. I was ONLY around the guys from Grosse Pointe. I didn't know the Zirelli guys. Didn't known Paul Tocco's crew. But The young guys I did know loved me because I was the tough guy who would smash youre head in for a buck, in a second. That's what Tony Jack liked about me. You get internet geeks saying I didn't know him, but again that's absurd. His daughter married my cousin. I didn't know him well. Why would I? He was an old man. I was a young punk.
BUT, when he needed a little muscle, he called me a few times. Collections. Security night clubs, at poker games and casino nights. Slap a guy around who wasn't paying his vig. The exact same shit Frank Witcher was indicted for. These mob groupies and so called "experts" can't name a single guy from my generation. Not a single one. Maybe Jerry the Balde Bianchette, who was one of my best friend's cousins. I still talk to his cousin all the time. He FaceTimed me last week. He referred me two publishing clients. Jerry was murdered on the orders of Jack Tocco. I could go on. Bottom line is you people don't know anyone from my era. Zero. Know why? No court docs. No fed files. No rats. No informants. So according to you experts and mob groupies the Detroit mob ceased to exist with my generation?🙄 If you have a half a brain, it's easy to see what I say makes perfect sense. I was just a low level thug life grunt who was indeed family, and thus I had direct access to them my whole life. I grew up with them, naturally seeing them almost daily. Weekly for sure at church. But hundreds of family functions. So you think they just pretended I didn't exist when I started getting arrested and going to jail in my teens? 😂 Nah bro, a few old men and cousins my age liked me because I was violence for hire. I had balls. I did gangster shit. I sold dope. I robbed and beat people for them. Not because I wanted to be in the mob, but because (a) it was family and (b) it was money, I was only in it for the money. Honestly I saw them as weak. They called me when they needed a strong arm. I didn't call them. In the clubs, my cousins all gathered around me, I didn'tgatehr around them. I gave them a sense of security. I always have their backs in beefs. Why would I jock a bunch of geeky squares or fat old uncles I'd know since I could walk? Cousins my age were all pussies. I'd say it to their face right now. You have idea. I literally JUST sent one of them to have a "talk" with a guy who was giving a childhood friend of mine some trouble. One talk is all it took, and everything is smoothed out. Why? Because that cousin went to see them and said, "Youre going to have a problem if Al gets involved." That guy asked around and guess what all my cousins told him. Yeah, you know they told him "Al was a lunatic back in the day." And I was. It's why I went to prison for 13 years. You think they give out that kind of time for petty shit? Sadly, I was a total scumbag. But dangerous. Volitle. Fearless. And was known for knocking guys out with one punch in clubs or restaurants or wherever it had to be done to send a message. Anyone who knows me from back then will tell you that. LOTS of people knew me back then. TONS! I've had some on my show. I didn't go to prison for for traffic trickets. I was a bad apple. Nothing to brag about. My only point to sharing these stories is to promote my books or to illustrate what a change I've made in my life. You don't have to believe it, but your opinion won't change reality. I don't have to prove anything to anyone, but maybe hearing FACTS form my mouth will snap you into reality. Today I'm a good man. Honest, loving, kind, generous. I own an apparel company, a new publishing company and a Christian radio station. If I share my past life it's ONLY to juxtapose the change I've made, not to glamorize the scumbag I once was. The only THING you should find hard to believe is that I went from that guy to a best selling author, CEO of three companies, good husband, great friend, and devote Christian. Thats the ONLY thing remarkable about me. Nothing more, nothing less. But I find it ironic that the guys who hate on me and say I was none of this hide behind fake YT handles and make fake videos using fake voices, telling fake lies or using my words out of context , and claim I'm the fake. Nobody will confront me to my face. And if they ask around in an attempt to find someone from my family to discredit me, all they will find is people confirming everything I've said. But they know nobody, Hence nobody ever coming out. It's not rocket science dude.

Indian Village is not a suburb. Its right in the middle of the Eastside. Surrounded by ghettos on all sides.
But very nice homes in Indian Villiage.
West Village and Islandview are not ghettos. Even a good chunk of east village is seeing renovation with 2 rehab projects on McClellan St.
@Knightmessenger McClellan is not in Indian Village.
Burns on the East, Mack on the North, Seminole on the West, Jefferson on the South.
All those new names for part of the city that were traditionally just the Eastside. Is yt marketing tricks on other yts.
@Knightmessenger This is some contrived bullshit.
Islandview is Jefferson South Boundary, Mack to the North, Mt. Elliott to the West, Baldwin to the East.
Islandview is named for its proximity to Detroit's island park, Belle Isle.
This name I never heard before. As a life long Detroiter?
Who dreamed up this BS? It's disgusting what is going on in Detroit.
@butchjones1486 Never said McClellan was in Indian Village. I specifically mentioned East Village.
As for who dreamed it up, the city recognizes many neighborhood names and many can be learned by either signage or Google maps.

🤣 pretty sure he had it backwards, detroit was runnin weed to canada.
Facts
I’m not going to expose myself but let’s just say I know more about the drug trade than the average person from the city. We never wanted that bc bullsh*t from Canada. Importing a large amount of weed from Canada was never worth the risk because you could get sent to customs for no reason. Dude is a joke
I grew up a little north of Detroit and this dude has almost no credibility in my eyes. About a 1/5 of what he’s saying is true. I don’t know where he’s coming up with the rest of it.
Why would people in Detroit care about a mafia enforcer
The mafia were the ones to plug the big time black king pins first...Frank Nitty drove for the mafia street boss Tony Jack and Ppl like Eddie Jackson ect went thru the Italians for dope in the 60s-80s
You seem like a wonderful youtuber...but "mafia enforcer" everyone from Detroit sees through that peace of work.
This guy knows nothing about Detroit! Johnny you got the wrong dude, you should real fact check everything this fool said.

I say this with all respect but there's no way this loud mouth asshole was affiliated with anyone real. Detroit Mob only dealt with their own family, that's why no one ever flipped unlike everyone else. They kept their numbers small, and did their thing the right way. Who on earth would hire this guy for anything other than being an actor or something. What a bullshitter he is.

Detroit makes every other major city look healthy, happy, clean, fresh, maintained and booming especially if you living in growing cities like Dallas, Austin, Houston, Miami, Atlanta, Charlotte, Philly, Raleigh, and pretty much most cities in FL.
Come visit Stockton CA, Richmond, Oakland, they all look at least as bad as Detroit looks in this video if not worse for sure.

The Greeks Mafia was a thing in the 90s my Native American tribe from the Upper Peninsula got lobbied by them to build a casino in downtown Detroit. Then was pushed out by the “Greek Mafia” which is now Greektown Casino.
I was born in Detroit in 1958, all I know is we lived on Beechwood St, Detroit was starting to die out at that point, so my parents packed us up and moved to Los Angeles in 62'
I had a friend who came across duffel bags of weed out of a garbage truck at a land fill they had to call the cops. He work for waste management.

Driving through the city on my way home from work right now, while there is some really bad neighborhoods, most people in Detroit and surrounding areas are good people, and I say this as a 39-year-old white male who lives in the suburbs. As long as you’re not looking for trouble, people are cool with you, but if it’s trouble you’re looking for, you will have no problem finding it. There is a sense of Detroit pride, though that loosely binds us all together, whites, and blacls, etc. this city, and surrounding areas might be the hardest working, most resilient, down to earth people anywhere. There is a lot of southern type of traits that people have because of the migration from the south up here decades ago to work in the auto industry and factories.
All the money has been spent on “Downtown” and not so much in the neighborhoods. I have a friend from Detroit and he says it’ll always be home to him and I’ve got to respect that.
This dude doesn’t know anything about Detroit let alone the east side
He needs to tell the truth he was getting high and copin dope. Every house isn’t a dope house.
Come to Brightmoor and see what the violence in Detroit is bout
I was raised in Detroit. Detroit definitely has areas that are desolate but there desolate because Detroit was built to be a City was no smaller than Americans 3rd largest(means you can fit 7 to 8 Bostons inside of Detroit) which a population that is around 600,000. That means that there are places where people simple don’t live anymore. Factories that have been abandoned because American ingenuity was left behind years ago. It’s a city that in my humble opinion represents America, still great, finding away to get its footing in a new world
The amount of bullshit spewed in this is honestly astonishing, first time viewer and wont be watching again. Shamefully not vetting your source enough to let him feed you all these lies and bogus🙄🙄🙄
This video is definitely false you should’ve had a real Detroit guy (black) to show you the real
HMU next time you wanna tour Detroit lmao.
ok so great video... but when was this shot? I mean it just dropped and a few bit into the video and the topic of legal betting in Michigan comes up and it has been legal for years. FyI some sort of disclaimer to give us perspective of the guy who is ridding with you and his information would be cool.
If I was not thinking this was an older recording it would make some people from the area to wonder about his information. Just something to consider to add to your video discription.
I love the content and am glad I have come across your channel
also some content about the Purple Gang would be impressive... not come up yet for what I have seen
upon watching this guy seems to know his stuff. A content idea would be it would be super cool to here his take on all of the Hoffa specifficly
Gunner just told me he was Eminem’s manager in pre school!!! He just got caught up in the mafia as an ENFORCER but he won’t talk about that to No ONE!!! Also in Detroit you can go to any gunny mafia store give the Loanshark $1 and get a scratch off, bro been in every 3rd house in Detroit

Gunner is a joke, talkin about emptying clips, what a wannabe. He didn't hit anything either is the the punchline. But what really is the give away hes talking about some people you hust dont talk about and you definitely dont talk about them on camera, let alone mention places that whomever might have or does frequent. I can't help but call BS on gunner.
So quick fact here: the Russel industrial center houses art studios for rent. You’re not permitted to live in them although some artist likely do.
Johnny Mitchell, I can't get enough of your content, so I subscribed!
I remember when it was houses on those blocks. 48215, 48214, 48207 and 48205 which probably the most dangerous zip code. During the 90’s everything off Chalmers and Gratiot was getting burned down on the daily.
Delray and Southwest was worse in the 80s and 90s
My boyhood neighborhood, Hayes n 7 mile, is mostly gone. Saratoga West of Hayes to Chalmers has less than 10 houses.
I live right there off 8 mile and 94. A mile down at 7 and Kelly is the red zone. My good friend was just murdered a few months back in that neighborhood. Shit is sad, he left behind 7 kids
I was racking my brain trying to figure out where I know that cat Gunner from. He looks so familiar, and the name was absolutely familiar.... And then he dropped the (Rave/Nitro) game and my brain unlocked lmao. What up Gunner do you remember me? We used to run tanks and other "party favors" and shit together🤘 Above Noir leather ring any bells 😜 I won't get too specific but,...I used to love visiting the Dentist back then 😂
I've lived here for about 60 years. I never heard anything about the Mafia.
Sports betting has been legal for at least 2 years. Love Detroit, warts n all.
Next time you go to Detroit get up with Detroit Nina or someone who’s actually connected and talks to people so u can really feel the energy of the city this mf don’t know what he’s talking about so he know a lil history about the city but shit everybody do!
should have went to windsor lol
I've never seen someone look more like a cop than Gunner does. He's got what they call "cop face".
Delete this, come back to the city and do a tour with somebody who really can show you what Detroit is about!
grew up and still live 20 mins out of detroit, this guy has absolutely no clue anything about the city. Im not a gangster wannabe but I do love history and crime plays a big part in history, I have no clue what this guy is talking about 😂
Sports betting has been legal in Michigan for at least 3 years now maybe longer. I was born and raised in Detroit 455 years.
This shit is terrible. I could tell dog didnt know what he eas talking about soon as he said we got our weed from Canada. That might be true for a few of yall but before it was legal most the city got the good bows from az and the dirt from tx. Then cali hit and nothing was the same. Dog gotta be from royal oak
The houses look
Pretty big and nice tho ngl lol. They look like they’re on nice size pieces of property too
All we saying Johnny is u do great work all the time so we expect better from you especially when Detroit gets shitted on every fucking day by ppl like Stephen A smith and others when they don’t know the real Detroit and u had an opportunity to see it and get it out there but dropped the ball. Hope u do another video like this in the city
Thats my hometown.
I grew up in the 60s and 70s.
Heartbreaking.
This video is so off.
For 1 Detroit PD is much better than he describes. They do a great job. Yes, you used to have to wait a long time for calls, but they have gotten much better in the past 20 years.
Secondly, Grosse Pointe never had a huge mob presence. Maybe a few mob bosses, but so did every nice suburb. Like every other big city.
And I have never never gotten patted down at a pizza shop.
Big thumbs down for this video. Next time, check your facts.

I loved Detroit Mo-Town Sounds Lou Rawls, Curtis Mayfield, Temptations, Aretha, The Ojays, Smokey Robinson, James Brown, and the list goes on and on!
Detroit reminds me of Youngstown Ohio, my hometown. Both unfortunately suffered the same post industrial apocalyptic fate.
Plus Detroit is home to the jazz
I live 2 miles from Detroit . These dude obviously hasn’t been around in a while. He’s speaking of his olden days, not Detroit today.
Good show man..i like gunner..he is a cool dude..🎉🎉
This man did not live in the city, so he is not a good one to represent the city!
He can tell it from HIS (HiS story) pov!

Mafia enforcer, or big mouth squealer? This guy isn't mafia, lmao. He'd be six feet under.
genuinely sucks, i’d be more than happy to walk you around downtown and the streets to truly show and tell u about this cities history, this city and state go way back to the early 1600s with native lands and stories that run through now modern day detroit, missed such a good opportunity and didn’t get your source
Knew this video was going to be bullshit from the thumbnail. Comments confirmed it. Enjoy your 1 second watch analytic.
