There's a movie about Micky Cohen in LA,CALI💯💯 #Yipes
Micky was Irish..I think🤔
Rick, I would suggest reading some of my books about organized crime in early Los Angeles or watching my lectures at the Las Vegas Mob Museum. Most of your comments in this interview about Mickey Cohen and my great grandfather Jack Dragna contain the usual errors. Also, during the 1920s, Lincoln Heights was known as Little Sicily and Boyle Heights had a HUGE Sicilian population.
Keep pushing Alex I like organise crime and cartel interviews for the few who are willing to give an interview
thanks for your support.
Lol I still refer to the street as Brooklyn old habit. Same thing with Rodeo
Exactly I can't get used to calling Rodeo Obama
Great information I like your change up
Alex you should interview Kenny Gallo who was an associate of the L.a. family in the early 2000s
lets do it.
@@streetgangs he has a Instagram and Facebook account
This would be fucken sick!!! Another great who's been a ghost is LA Borgata assc. Anthony Fiato
if you were more consistent with the interview parts , this channel wouldve blown up already , gotta start posting more often , no channel thats been running this long & has the content you have should be averging less than 5k views
look up the racial law suit that discovered that the algorithm discriminates against certain content creators. This platform has 150,000,000 views. You can't find many channels that have reached that.
Rumor has it that Bugsy Siegel ran numbers out of a basement located at LeBlanc's on Griffin Street and N. Broadway in Lincoln Heights
dang this guy is REAL OG talking about Mickey and Dragna.
East side clover and dog town members were in the early years of the LA mob
That's true. During the fruit peddlers war of the 1910's East side clover backed up Tony Matranga and his College Park Gang and Alpine street and Dogtown were behind Joe Ardizzone and his North End Gang. They were some of the first members brought into the family after New York gave Ardizzone permission to transform his gang into a Mafia family probably around 1920-21
@@ignacior.8895 yep all facts but what I wanna know is did the Italian community in LA assimilate with “white” population over time cause of the rise of Mexicans or did they just move
@@BHTSGOHARD both ! The Dogtown neighborhood was demolished in the early 1930s. They built the Los Angeles county jail in the location which used to be the center of the area. Check out the Italian museum behind Olvera street and you'll see some old photos of Dogtown from the 1890s
@@ignacior.8895 so William mead is a newer location for dogtown? I’ve known this history for years being from Boyle heights and knowing the history of the neighborhoods around me
@@BHTSGOHARD yeah that's safe to say it is new compared to how old the neighborhood is and smaller now. What area in Boyle Heights are you from ? I grew up on Lan Franco and grande vista streets.
Was the Dominck he referred to was that Nino Gaggi's nephew?
Cool series. It'd be cool if Tarantino made a movie from John's stories😂
LA got a deep history in gang culture..
Louie dragna is my grandpa. I grew up going to his house in covina, I miss the f out him. Not to many people can say they had a papa like mine!!!
Yes but this is about Joe Drago, not your grandpa.
@@busterhikney6936 who's Joe drago??? Lol. you mean Jack dragna, louies uncle.
you work in the clothing business now too?
Jack dragna was the boss of the L.a. mafia.
yep
Makes a lot of sense that's why the Mexican Mafia choose the word mafia in the Black hand
Influence
By the earlier gangs
Dragna wasn't the first boss in Los Angeles. Jack attained his throne by double crossing his family boss Joe Ardizzone in 1931 and before Joe Ardizzone was the Matranga family in the 1880s who were running things and who were also his cousins. All from Piana del Greci in Sicily. The Matrangas lived on Ave 19 in Lincoln heights and Joe Ardizzone lived on Ave 18. After the fruit peddlers war of 1906 Ardizzone became the first true boss of Los Angeles.
He's a great individual to interview...he pre-dates Afrikaans Gang banging ... no Afikkan gang banger speaks of this diversity...the closest is OG Worm in there (1940's) migration from Durty South 💯💯
It will always be Brooklyn Avenue to me.
Joe Dragon was a beast!
Interesting what they were involved in and how they made their money
no 17 ?
Is jack dragna i think
Did you meet Jim Smith? Cohen care taker out of prison?
How much you pay this guy lol getcho refund he lying his ass off
Rosecrans Rick
How when clowns like wack 100,claiming to run L.A
You really cant say “who runs” its really about who owns the most “lucrative racket” because money = power with money you have more goons and weapons at your beck an call
Clown not even from L.A, he from the San Fernando Valley
😀😆 Joe Drago
The mafia never had a significant presence in LA.
Yes, they did.
@@azrael7891 The LAPD kept the Italian mafia from taking hold. This was long ago but they committed murders and used other illegal, or extralegal if you prefer, means to keep the mafia from gaining a serious foothold.
@@dottyspotty9835 that's a lie. There was a strong presence in NELA. Dogtown and ES Clover were gangs that worked for the Sicilians.
The Matranga family were here in Los Angeles in the 1880s and Joe Ardizzone and his brothers were running their North End Gang in 1900s took control of Lincoln Heights, Boyle Heights, and the plaza. After prohibition the family flourished and into the 1950s and 60s they completely controlled San Diego too with a large crew there. They also had a crew in San Bernardino county and Palm springs.
@@dottyspotty9835 sounds like you're referring to the 1920s. It's true the Los Angeles police did take control of a lot of the rackets in Los Angeles. They were using a front man who was a gangster by the name of Albert Marco. He was sent to San Quentin and his remaining right hand man was executed by Joe Ardizzone who eventually regained control of all the rackets after the collapse of the corrupt police department.
Good. Shout out to all the righteous white people holding it down in NELA.
