This is rare information because most guys in supermax are never coming out to host podcasts.
Or not coming out in a box
Like Gaspipe
Very good observation
@@CIA_Killed_JFK casso just died last year. Dec 15th 2020.
There is prison at amx that sammy was in then they have the super max under ground those guys don't come out usually lifers because they are risks to National Security says the government Sammy was on top but the people he was talking about like Scarpa Jr there in the basement Underground you don't see the sky people who have 1000s of soldiers and to much power like el Chapo Latin King black p stone and other mob and gang bosses of Super organization bosses the ones that can make a call and get a person missing media isn't allowed know girl who had a family member die there
Damn that story was way better than any short documentary on ADX. Thanks Sammy.
This was so damn real. He will never forget the woman who showed him compassion
He said that he could tell she had compassion because her "fucking face was sad, and she had tears in her fucking eyes. " He has tender memories of her alright.
Or the woman watching him taking a deuce
HE DESERVES NO COMPASSION!!! SAMMY IS LAUGHING AT ALL OF YOU FOR BEING SHEEP...AMAZING!!!
@@Capt_OscarMike 😂 you’re right actually
Hahahahaya as if he deserves it
Sammy will never take any meal, walk in the park or conversation for granted again. That's fucking terrifying
My mind can not fathom the thought of being locked up in solitary for years. This would break me.
3 days, I wished I was dead. Only 3 days......
I’d b the one to loose it, go berserk, do something dumb and end up in the whole within a whole.
Solitary breaks the strongest of men...
@@web5271 did it drag by? How bad was it?
I wonder how Eric Rudolph is doing?
Sammy blasting out content. Let’s all appreciate this my boys!
Yea appreciate a guy that rated on 30 men ...put them away for life !!!
@@Robert06087 i appreciate the fact, that as a mob enthousiast, we get stories from a big shot out of that time. It’s not about what he’s done and what my opinion is on that.
Gravano belonged in prison. He doesn’t have any remorse for his crimes. Just wants to tell mafia stories and make some money off of it.
@@Robert06087 and murdered 20 people
@@charles-y2z6c still his stories are intruiging and interesting. Whats the problem.
Sammy Gravano is one of the few that I know about who went to ADX supermax and actually got out to tell about it. Most the people there have life with no parole.
He mentioned Gaspipe Casso. He got out I think
@@notthisprickagain8499 I think gas pipe mentioned seeing Sammy in his book
Holy,crap I. Would not want to go there,for Shure
New family member here. I’ve been binge watching your videos. Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful stories and life experience. 🦋
Hey you lol I was reading comments and seen a name I recognized 😉. Hope you had a great thanksgiving!
@@UserDom777 hello Dominyc, great minds my friend, LOL! 🤓
Geez!!! It’s really amazing he ain’t lost his mind completely after that place... No ?? What nightmares are made of ...
Only a sociopath can leave there with their sanity. Someone who can kill many men and feel no remorse but makes TH-cam videos to get your remorse. That’s who
He's a devil he be good in any hell hole
He is who he is
That was a very heart breaking intense story. I could feel his pain and hear it in his voice. That actually shook me up. Glad you're home Sammy.
Out of all the podcast you have done sammy in this one I can see the pain and suffering there as you relive it. Thankyou for sharing that with us.
This man committed 19 murders. That is why he is prison. Pity he did'nt show compassion for his victims that he now wants for himself.
God Bless that nurse for bringing a tiny bit of light into that hell for you. I can't see how that's not cruel and unusual punishment bro.
That’s a hell of a story Sammy. I know all about the hole. But 6 1/6 years is definitely intense. Glad your home with your family 👊🤟
Why don’t u tell some stories about bath ave ?
As someone who struggled with depression I tried to distance myself from people. It was hard to feel comfortable with looking people in the eyes and basic interactions once I started to Break out of my shell. I can’t even imagine what it would be like to be put in a place like this and then trying to simply communicate with someone again
I understand what it's like I've been there myself !
This mzkes me
Im crying listening to this person describe his loneliness. Theres nothing i. Can do. I feel helpiess. Sorry for u Sammy
I did 2 months solitary at Holiday unit. It was like my own personal hell. I cannot imagine doing 6 years like that. My hats off to you bro.
6 years? Many people there have been in for decades, and will never leave.
What's "holiday unit" if you don't mind my asking ?
Words from the wise to you young Gangstas. 👂☝🏾
Thank you for telling these stories. I know it can’t be easy. The genuineness in which In you tell these amazingly painful stories is amazing.
He’s not in pain. He’s a good story teller
I was in super max in Florence Arizona it’s the same set up. It is a very very lonely cold place and as human beings we need contact with other people to survive. When you go years without touching another person you start to lose touch with reality! I respect any man who’s in there and whoever made it out with his sanity still in tact!!!!! I was in there for 11 years and lost it all!! I know exactly what Sammy is talking about I was entered into the systems security threat group so I was slammed down the whole time!! Prayers to all the fellas still living in there🙏🏽 I got my family back and have 3 more kids. I’m trying everyday to be a better man but something’s you just don’t forget. The mind is a very powerful thing!!💯
I couldn’t even imagine doing that time . 20 years I couldn’t do 20 days
You would be surprised at what you could endure.
Your wasting your life and doing time now you just don't know it...
@@MikeJones-lx9hd You can only speak for yourself if you feel you are wasting your life, because some of us are enjoying ours and getting a lot out of it. Nothing is perfect in life, and we don’t expect it to be, but ending up where he ended up, is truly a waste of life, and I’m sure he thought about that often in there
If you can't do the time don't do the crime. Or become a politician first.
I couldn’t do 20 minutes
That female Guard shows that Good still exists across the board.DARK TIMES
BS on that story, three on one when moving inmates at ADX. It is against policy for a female to observe males and males can't watch females in those type of situations.He is too high Profile of an inmate for any shenanigans ..
@@kdubyaw3246 Yeah iOK
Yep no nurse in there is going to tear up at the sight of someone in there definitely not in front of a prisoner, they see the conditions everyday not to mention they would shop her out so fast as she would be a security threat if she was emotionally connecting with prisoners
Anyone here in these comments other than me did 10 years and seen first hand not only guards bring dope, fuck inmates, quit and marry dudes? So if a guard showed some compassion for dude seems impossible? GET REAL FOLKS,WITH ALL DO RESPECT IF YOU NEVER WENT THROUGH THE HELLHOLE THEN REALLY ONLY ASSUME.
@Eli Velez Females watching a male go to the bathroom, no, not happening. Been that way for decades. Besides, whenever they move an inmate at ADX, it is three on one, not one on one.
Well, I mean, you did admit to murdering 19 people... Then given a chance in Witness Protection and then you screwed that one up by selling ecstasy... Do you think you weren't going to end up there?!?!
Jarran Tyler this prison needs to be shut down. You can lock people up but this is cruel and unusual punishment. In fact the people who made this prison should all be executed
@@rwbmaat I agree that the majority of inmates shouldn't be housed there because of how there treated... such as major mafia, drug/gang leaders, spies, etc. I admit ADX is a bit extreme and I believe other Maximum security prisons would do just as good of a job housing those inmates.
BUT.....
When it comes to terrorists that have been proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt for deliberately killing with Americans and American CHILDREN, for example, terrorists, like the Boston Marathon bomber. He could have placed that homemade IED anywhere, but he sat it behind a 7 year old girl. People like that deserve to live in Hell on Earth. Execution would be too merciful.
@@rwbmaat fuck ‘em
I think those conditions in ADX Supermax CO. are totally insane. I bet some inmates would rather be dead instead go thru this HELL HOLE.
something is drastically wrong with our prison system. I know they had to edit the video cause it was hard for Sammy to describe what goes on in ADX Supermax. he had tears in his eyes. Thanks again, Sammy.
People that never did any time this stuff Sammy is telling is the real deal. Its fucking miserable they break you down as a human. Sammy is a bad dude to sit and tell these war stories and keep it together he is a strong man. Much respect Sammy.
Its true super max is not a game I know first hand
I would love to see a sit down between Sammy Gravano and Michael Franzese.
Phil Leonetti and Frank DiMatteo
There would be a shoot out over the best mafia story 😂
Won't happen 🐁
Gianni Russo Sammy the Bull sit down.
Not me Sammy might kill him. Franzese spreading too many lies
I know exactly what your talking about Sammy I did 7 year's in Pelican Bay State Prison in the S.H.U
I thought he meant Chopper Reid for a moment 😂. Like damn, that dude DID get around 😂.
This man is a shell of himself from back in the 80s. I met sammy while visiting my uncle who was a regular at a bar in Bensonhurst called tallis bar. I worked with my uncle doing construction work and after work one day he said stop by the bar and have a drink with me. When I got there my uncle took me into a back room and introduced me to a guy named huck. Not his real name but that's what my uncle introduced him to me as. After that we went and sat at the bar a started drinking well I did anyway my uncle nursed a drink for about half of an hour and just talked my ear off. About an hour or so later in walked sammy the guy had an intense look about him to say I was intimidated is not even close to how it felt seeing him for the first time. He did stay long he greeted a few of the guys my uncle jimmy included who then introduced me as his nephew and that was that. That was how I met sammy.
Sammy the bull is the real deal we all know that we all know he was in the Life at the very top... What I would love to hear is Sammy's take on John alight and Gene barello.... It would be cool to see this guy sit down and talk with Michael franchese.
John Alite is a wannabe compared to Sammy
Sammy will end up whacking them.
i want to know if henry hills claims gotti killed tony desimone is true
Sammy mentioned Alite on his IG live and said he was friendly with him.
Alite a wannabe? U Must be a gotti jr fanboy.
Thanks as always Sammy. I appreciate all your stories, no matter the length of them. Stay well ✌️
I don’t understand how solitary confinement isn’t considered torture
A real man can admit when he’s felt insecure. Much respect when an alpha on this level can admit to his
being completely honest with yourself is part of what makes an alpha--admitting your vulnerabilities and finding ways to eliminate them
@@donsmith3857 He "eliminated" 19 people.
@@ronaldmayle1823so he proved he’s an alpha
As bad as it was for Sammy did do the crime and many family members are hurting still to this day at the loss of a loved one. Sammy was brutal and murdered many people.
Almost 7 years in the hole is crazy . They were definitely trying to break him
Thank you for sharing the downside of the lifestyle
This one was a hard one. Most of us would never fathom any of those situations Sammy has been in. And it's a rare storie like this to make it from supermax like this. Thank you Sammy for the stories you tell us the viewers. Much love and keep on keeping on from Virginia
He was there for a reason.
I am a completely reformed career criminal, 6 time ex convict housed in administrative segregation/ the hole for most of my time. I am a fully recovered heroin addict on 8 yrs sobriety now thanks to GOD. I am also a civil rights activist with focus on prison reform. The USA has the same gross violations of human and civil rights as any other country we condemn. Our prisons are a cesspool of corruption and abuse that society would demand something be done if they knew what transpires. We need to remove qualified immunity from wardens, guards and police period.
Thank you for sharing. This is what this world needs. Abbraccio ❤
I think what sucks is seeing those beautiful majestic mountains for the last time, in some cases, before you settle down in your new crib.
Joey diaz was right when he said they threw Sammy UNDER the jail. Literally
That’s inhuman! Makes me seriously want to fight against harsh treatments in correctional facilities.
Don't waste your time brother.
We should protest this! Guantanamo bay was shut down and protested. Why do we do this on American soil.
This guy committed how many crimes without remorse for others or the public, but he is being treated harshly? Are you fucking kidding me? He knew there would be consequences for his actions, and would have done more illegal things had he not been caught. The message is don’t do illegal shit, or you will be locked up in hell.
you are 100% correct its totally inhuman to put humans in solitary I pulled a 25 month sentence of which I spent 16 months in solitary 7 of that was in the super max at oak park heights in MN I will fully admit it was hard but what bothered me the most was the way other offenders were treated I could handle solitary many men can't suicide is so common in prison I'm a middle age career criminal in for racketeering I hated to see young 18 year old kids make one stupid mistake and end up in prison only to be overwhelmed and take their lives and no body cared staff carried the offender out like trash and made jokes about it but in my case I would not allow staff to disrespect me and I pulled months in solitary as a result because the people you need to watch yourself around in prison arent the inmates its the guards because some are sick people that love to drive dudes to fight not all guards some are good people but some aren't I assaulted three guards because they created a situation that caused my cellie to get his throat cut and die he was only 25 decent kid doing 16 months and he died because the staff intentionally put him in with rival gangs alone his death affected me and after a guard made a joke about him I took off on them three in hospital seven to take me down but that night in seg four COs visited my cell and broke my fingers with a night stick and beat me senseless and what is a inmate to do in that situation call 911 you realize your on your own
@@tommyd1655 salute to you man for staying ten toes down gangster. I understand only the real survive and im glad you acknowledge the repulsive ones are the guards. You see all you did was sock out a evil turn key and you end up in a hole in the ground. I totally believe you when you say guards killed the boy. Setting him up like that. And they laugh at the suffering. It all needs a push. A change
Sammy, I know you chose to live a life that was surrounded by violence and a different life, but to hear how lonely it gets, the way the human spirit is torn from people to the point you want to give in. It's Savage. Was it all worth it Sammy? Ciao From Scotland
Your putting out content like you hustled when you were in the streets. No wonder you were the biggest earner. Keep it coming bro!
The subscriber's are getting up there, Sammy will be up there with Michael franzese on subscribers before long. Love Sammy the bull
I'm looking forward to every video
Sammy so glad I found ur channel. Good for you that u on the tube! Looking forward to your videos. Wow such eloquence! U have my respect sir!

i would love to know what carlo gambino was like there is so little information about him please do a video on him! like if you agree
Yes
apparently he was very private they described him as grandfatherly
@UCGKw5dlA3TtV9i1yrJO6VKA in his book he said he spent some time with gambino. I thought i would ask i mean i would like to find out about gambino can you name somebody else i should ask that might no something about him because please i would love to know

I’d be inclined to give this place a negative review on trip advisor.
That's very funny. Thanks.
I'm gonna wait on a few more reviews before I cross it off my list
They do have room service with meals though
One star on google maps. Lol!
Their Yelp rating must be very subpar.
i appreciate these longer stories
This guy needs to do a pod w Lawton and Francheze
Jesus sammy....
@Rough Acres yeah but their prison stories would be insane. Lawton has more followers then both of them combined, it would help Sammy get his numbers up fast.
Yeah, Sammy , please do the longer stories!! 🙏🙏
incredible storyteller!

@TheMrjonnyd straight east coast italian. Bro you wouldnt believe it.
I did 5 yrs in a regular state prison, I thought how lonely it was there. You're surrounded by people, but you can never let your guard down and be yourself. It's exhausting, I can't imagine how bad the experience would be in ADX.
Easy work. Your never around others
I heard you cannot show weakness b/c theirs a lot of predators out their like sharks in the ocean that relate softness as a shark senses blood.
@@stephendacey8761 if you got it in you to stand up for yourself you'll be just fine. 90% of the sharks want a free meal. I did a few bids no problem. I got into a few fights in there. They don't last long and 9/10 times the guy just makes threats and when it comes time to get down they try to save face and move on to try someone else. If your a pushover your fuxxed. Don't go to prison.
@@stephendacey8761 another thing is we always worked out in our cells in plain view daily. Pushups, situps, and pullups. They never really bother with you if they see you have your routine. If you have a routine and your just towing the line it's no big deal. Easy ride. The loneliness is what gets you in there. I could care less about the other inmates and/ or sharks. The loneliness is horrible. Been in the hole a few times and it was just insane. You can literally hear the clock down the hall tick and seconds feel like minutes and there is nothing you can do. You can either beat your head against the wall, or go nuts. No windows, no connection to reality and half the time there is no hot water. Even in that condition when the hot water heaters are broken it's absolutely horrible. Made my stay 10 times worse. You get out and you push the wall of your shower because you forgot your home. You have to keep hitting a little steel button to keep the shower running for 10 seconds a push. When you get out you start pushing the wall in your own shower.
@@mattswich Wow...I bet doing the same thing day in and day out can make you go insane. I would think the boredom and being isolated would be the toughest part.
That's the rawest thing I've ever heard Sammy talk about. That's powerful
I wouldn’t have survived I can’t be in small places that I have no control of the door sometimes a public bus would freak me out and I would have to get out cause while it’s driving I can’t open does door I need to know I can open the door when ever I want
Yeah me too, it was powerful !
Too right!! I find it amazing that a Country such as the USA ,that leads the World in freedom, can treat human beings like that!! No matter what they have done
@@setdaviking1697 that is the whole point they know people like Sammy are going to get out and let everyone else know what a hell hole it is. A subtle warning to the masses you mess up in society and you may end up here.
Rich Weigel that doesn’t really stop anyone from going lol no1 chooses to go there there making examples out of these guys. If I was a guard I’d talk to Sammy but you know what he is the type that eventually will manipulate you into doing something lol he so cool u just want to help him
In a moment of rare compassion for someones kindness Sammy says " I Will Neva Fogit Her Fackin Face " 😄
“Fackin” is way too London Cockney, it’s more “fookin”
💀💀💀💀
Straight talk about the hole. Memories of dreaming of the day I would be free again. Greatest day of my life when I was paroled. You really appreciate your freedom after being locked up.
dont think we in same country but it dont matter, same feeling in any country i imagine signing the release papers and waitin on the max security gate opening, not a feeling like it

Been there and done that..and your right, once your ib the hole and you get out...!! You don't want to go back.
100 percent!! ✅
23 and 1. So glad that I didn't endure it too long but believe me bro.....1 day is too long. Hell on Earth. Flying right since 92'.🙏
People who get sent to ADX are sent there for a reason. Can't behave in regular prison. It's not like that just go there over some speeding tickets
I watched Gravano's video where he described the federal "supermax." His comment about the "Alcatraz of the Rockies" may seem difficult to believe, but Sammy is 99% accurate. As a former warden at the penitentiary, I agree that the ultra-secure environment is not humane and provides a setting that goes far beyond needed. If given a choice to be sentenced to life at the ADX or the death penalty --- doing time at the "supermax" would be a far worse penalty. Soon the federal death penalty will be discontinued (later this year). More inmates will be housed at this prison in Colorado instead of being put to death. Don't assume incarceration at this location would be better than the death penalty. Gravano was able to handle time at the prison --- many don't. Bob Hood (Warden - Retired. 2005)
I'd rather be dead than spend 20+ years at that prison 100% but thats just me im not a animal
Thanks for sharing. You correctional officers have one of the most extreme, difficult and dangerous jobs in the world. And you’re severely unappreciated. Even after doing it for a career, it’s nice to see compassion for their conditions in a supermax.
Thank you for telling it. It is too horrible to wrap my mind around - it needs to be exposed
P.O.S!
@@dickburt69 perfect name for you
If ever there was a deterrent against a life of crime, this story is it.
This a criminal who has lived into old age. In his earlier videos we laugh with admiration about the stories of his crimes and exploits of guts and cunning. Now in old age he tells us as a super predator he should of had a college dorm with kitchen privileges. Thats not how its supposed to be.

He’s a masterful manipulator and I wouldn’t trust anything he says. He knows how to play mind games and prey on human emotions like a vulture or predator preys on meat
@Nathan. Very well put. I think a lot is extremely exaggerated for viewing purposes. More likes and subscriptions.
@@CarlCramer88 the man has shown there isn’t a fibre of truth in his make up. He betrayed both his criminal brothers and the law enforcement that protected him and gave him a ridiculous sentence of 5 years for killing 19 people and allowed him to keep his illicit earnings he made from organised crime yet he betrayed the very law that protected him by running a drug ring in Arizona. The man isn’t capable of uttering a syllable of truth and very predatory in his manipulation of human emotions. He murdered his own wife’s brother and still went home to her at night as if nothing had happened. He’s beyond ruthless and been a psychotic and stone cold killer what is there to trust about such a man besides knowing he has secured a place in hell.

There is a far worse judgment coming. Supermax is a luxury hotel compared to eternity in hell.

It’s hard to fathom. Mind bending.😮

I did 3 years in a state max.
Normal people are understandably unable to believe how horrific, how malevolent so many of the conditions and practices are.

Honest question guys, if prison was easier and you weren't treated like shit, which is how a lot of people treat others just going around their general business hence they get locked up. ( not saying you guys did that stuff). Do you think that environment made you less likely to re-offend?.

You still got a better deal than the people you put in a casket. No black n white tv in the casket. No food delivered either. Think about that Sam. Enjoy your freedom.

Live by the sword die by the sword... Clearly he killed those that were living by the sword.

In addition to all that, you’re literally bolted in your bathroom-sized cell 23-hours a during the weekdays, and 24-hours a day on the weekends!! Also, there’s no heat or air conditioning. So, it’ll feel like you’re bolted in an ice box during the wintertime, and the summertime feels like a hot stuffy oven! Try living like that for multiple years!!
Crazy how America will lock people up to live like that but the biggest criminals of them all don’t go there instead they get retirement /get elected office smh.
You can see the pain in his face ,just recalling his time there
How about all the pain he caused other families when he killed there loved ones!
@@lots33ml
Or the ones he ratted on
Those men knew what the risk was.
Dont hate the player hates the game.
I do get your point though.
@@lots33ml He paid for it in the SuperMax.
@@lots33ml he killed killers. They knew the consequences. Stop feeling sorry for scumbags
Chapo is never going to stop thinking about getting out but its true, he's going nowhere
I got to assume most guys in Colorado are not coming home to tell us about the place
I have drove by it a few times on my way to N.M. and it looks god awful it's sure not the prettiest part of CO.
Remember why they are there though.
@@JacobMatthew8 Yeah true, the Alcatraz of the Rockies. It's actually not really in the Mountains though just east of them. But you can see the front range from there.
Alpo was in that prison
Almost everyone in there has a life sentence there’s area of the prison i think it’s called bomber’s row or something along those lines and it’s where they keep all the domestic terrorists who committed bombings
I am so amazed at the mental, emotional strength you had to deal with this despicable life in this prison.
he had no choice
Sammy, you gotta do Joey Diaz’s podcast. He’s mentioned you in his podcast a couple of times wanting to interview you, I believe it would be an awesome podcast to watch for sure.
Yesssss
@@stevec69 do not through rocks at glass houses.
Oh that would be great
Sammy doesn't like pot smokers
No he doesnt Joey Diaz is some idiot who likes faking being Italian..he can smoke weed and chill with Rogan
I see your pain Sammy when your talking about this
i cant feel sorry for a person who killed more then 19 people... there are even innocent folks he killed... i dont feel sorry...
Everybody has there point of view and opinion I think everybody deserves a second chance to prove themselves let’s see!!!!!
@@Andrewjones-cc3pn you wouldn't say that if he killed your mother for being in the wrong place...
@@Andrewjones-cc3pn yes everybody deserves a 2nd chance. but this guy got 19 chances and thats just the murders. then hes had a load of chances for other things too. fact of the matter is he is sat here whinging that his food was cold and his matress wasnt comfy and if this guy had his own way he would have never got caught and would have continued killing and stealing and wouldnt care less. pathetic man. i feel sorry for anybody who is suffering but if anybody deserves it its this guy and he didnt even get anywhere near justice
Guy killed 19 people and sells merch as a free man. Don’t feel that bad for him.
This was a very profound and insightful description of your experience at ADX Super Max. Literally sounds like hell. Not many make it out of there.
Club med
Well it's not for regular inmates it's for killers, terrorists etc so no sympathy tbh
19 murders. 10 were 17 year olds and minors.
You think 5 years was a just sentence.
Or you support child killers?
Time ain't no different outside then it is inside it's all just time. You flip a deck of cards & workout personal I liked the single man cell in the hole. No one to fight or f u c k as they say. No one to towel up to shit in your cell but you beautiful thing. Your right though the about an inch mat sucks but you fold it over at the top to make a pillow.
Literally sounds like hes describing hell
They don’t even allow Bibles in ADX Florence
This place was to good for him don’t forget who you are talking about
@@StylinProfilin3889 calm down he wasn't a serial killer that went around killing random innocent people he wasn't a child molester or a rapist so wtf are u talking about "too good for him"
Think about how horrible the conditions were where they kept him. Now think about a decomposing body that was made that way by extreme pain and violence. That’s how he left his victims. Never feel sorry for a taker of human souls. The fact that he is allowed to be out and talk is abominable.
Most of if not all his victims were part of that life! They all understand that.
He did his time
How many people was the Bull responsible for getting buried or viciously beaten
Dude basically gets a pass for what he did while he was in the mafia. He actually killed people. Multiple people and gets a pass cause he testified. It is what it is. But with that, he screws up and starts dealing massive amounts of X. Hard to feel bad for this guy. He seems likable, but he did this to himself. How many people did he kill? I think 16!!!.
I do believe there is a difference between incarceration and torture. Our government should not be allowed to torture people.Even pedophiles and terrorists should be just killed quickly rather than tortured.
Admitted to 19.mafiahitters.com/sammy-gravanos-19-victims/
He killed people that was aboit that life... he didnt kill 17 innocent mothers with their children
@@hanskaningen6704 oh, I get it. It’s not illegal to kill as long as they’re bad guys? Is that what you’re trying to say? If so, you need help. Murder is murder jack! If killing only bad guys was ok in this world, there’d be no bad guys.
@@flipperhansen5600 ah okej. You really put sammy gravano in the same catagory as Jeffrey dahmer? Ofc killing is not ok, but they kill eachother whats the problem?
This is your most powerful moving video yet. I absolutely love your content. This was so deep for me, because my dad is doing a 44 year my brother is doing 25 and my uncle 22. Your videos help keep me on the right path believe me. Thank you!!
Are they all in for meth trafficking?
You dance with the 😈 devil, you know, some day there's a heavy price to pay! Good luck SAMMY, you've done your time ,enjoy what's left.
Sammy you need to find Jesus and sincerely repent in your heart. I think this is one of the reasons you survived all this and still alive.
Actually it was the giant spaghetti monster.
@Paul Dee he boiled for our sins!
The Russian prison I saw in a documentary was worse than this, those prisoners can't even stand up straight, they walk around bent over...
Black Dolphin Prison
@@Artillery2012 yes that one.
@Robert Salley I've seen those ones, I'm not talking about prisoner vs prisoners, but the prison settings being inhumane.
They arent allowed to sit down for the time they wake up until bed also btw
@Robert Salley what are they gonna commit suicide with? I don't think they have belts, bed sheets etc. Have you seen the documentary on it?
I say this with respect "Salvatore is one tough bastard"
Tough is holding yourself accountable for your actions taking it like a man not ratting on all your friends committing more crimes and than crying in a jail cell read between the lines this dude is weak
@@armandoramirez90 If you don’t like his stories why stay, unless you are only here to troll or call him weak from behind a computer
@@armandoramirez90 you would have ratted in 2 seconds who u kidding
Just remember when you are sympathizing, he didn't stop on his own. He stopped because he got caught.
He was let go the first time, a multimillionaire. It was the second conviction in Arizona got him here.
That Prison sounds worse than HELL.
Those who are there deserve it.
@Jonathan Dunne if someone did something wrong to one of yours, wouldn’t you want them in there? I know I would.
These videos Sammy is putting out, are hands down the best mob stories on TH-cam. As soon as his channel went up it was golden. I’m sold Sammy, keep em’ comin’
Wow, he might be a ruthless killer but he sure has a way with words.
What words captivated you?
On one hand it's impressive that Gravano came out in such stable mental condition . On the other hand , we're listening to a man who inflicted so much pain , tortured and murdered so many people. However , his charisma and story telling style is both enthralling and a major deterrent to a dream of living the life. Good on you Sammy
People can change, and I think even when he killed, it was always business and guys who signed up for that life. Not saying that's excusable or anything, but good people can do bad things, and I genuinely believe people can change.
Meanwhile ....under witness protection he gets caught dealing meth?
Lolll is this true!?
It wasn't meth. It was the club drug X.
Yes... Its true sammy only did 1 year in prison for killing 19 ppl. That was in 90s. Then in 2000s sammy and his son moved to arizona and became one of the largest ecstasy dealers in AZ. He was then scentenced to 20 years in adx supernax for that.
Exctasy ring in Arizona.
No man....talk about your CRIMES.... You were in the hole for a reason.
Gee. And you wonder why people re-offend when they get out of such places. Treat people like animals, they will act like it.
It could be easy to not talk about or mention your most humiliating times, but Sammy did anyways and owned up to it like a man 💪
I agree with you there. He owns his dirt! Which is very telling. He could easily lie or dismiss it.
💜
There’s nothing manly bout this guy.. he admits to 19 murders rats on not only gotti but tons of guys spent life in prison bc of him and tore up so many families bc he couldn’t stand up
@@unclenicky92 he also shot dead an innocent 16 year old kid
Honor & keeping our word is still important to some of us,
Guess if we were to experience a week or two there, we would never complain and bitch about our lives ever again
Maybe if they weren't criminals they wouldn't have to be there.
