Great video, just one thing… Costello wasn’t deported and jailed in Italy. Costello died a free man in the US. Joe Adonis (a strong ally of Lucky Luciano) was deported to Italy but not jailed. Also, when Luciano was deported, he was not jailed in Italy either.
They didn’t Just Kill Bonnie & Clyde they straight up Massacred the ever living hell outta them those many Bullet Holes 🕳 in there Car there mind was just not on “Getting rid of them”,They wanted to set-Make a Example Outta them(💯✅).
Great vid. The defining moment and one of the main reasons for the downfall of the mafia was the Gotti’s flamboyant attitude, his requirement that family capos meet all at once, often, and the subsequent flipping of Sammy the bull. Not to mention the flipping of Gaspipe. Those two under bosses flipping caused a massive restructuring and a pull back. As soon as a rule is broken in the mafia without consequences the rule starts to get broken all the time. One after another rules were not strictly upheld and simultaneously the rise of sophisticated servailance equipment and cameras made the killing that the mafia used to strong arm people almost a sure bet to be sentenced to life. There are many reasons why the mafia fell but those inflection points and an overall relaxing of the rules disintegrated it’s rigid structure. It’s most powerful traits taken away from them.
I think the world was a better place when the mafia dominated the underworld. Well, at least the places where it ran the underworld, Chicago, New York etc. Yes, everything was a little more expensive because of the “mob tax” but at least there wasn’t any senseless killings, and unorganized chaos all over the streets. No other criminal organization has the rules the mafia had regarding not killing civilians or families. The mafia usually killed without putting too many innocent civilians at risk, now a days the guys spray the street from a car, and hit everyone except for their target.
That, and most gangsters of the Italian Mafia took things too personally. Getting upset over things and lashing out at friends or foes painted a target on their back. Assassinating each other for power in the mafia was normal, but eventually, as new blood replaced the old, the mafia fell apart without strict rules as the new generation took over, they became too bold, which also led to their downfall. Making more mistakes, as the POI got smarter and more strict with corrupt agents on the mobs payroll. “Pride before fall” as the saying goes.
@@garrettviewegh677 you are 100% correct and it reminds me of the other day when I tried to tell my daughter how much I loved an old song from Woodstock which represents a time and a culture that no longer exists. A world that she will never know or even acknowledge. It seemed to me that the mafia existed in the same way. Traditions and strict adherence to such was never truly embraced by the younger generations. They just don’t see it, are not aware of it, and because they are not aware of it, they are not affected by it.
I think chin meant to just scare costello if he really wanted to kill costello he'd have shot him a few times you don't mess something like that up in the mob or your next
I always figured the prevalence of audio and video recording devices like cctv and cell phones everywhere starting in the late 00’s must’ve been a huge blow to the traditional practices of the Italian mob.

@@Boss_Man00 While any crime is bad, I do somewhat agree, for how immoral and cruel the mafia was, they did put the “organized” in organized crime.
