How The 'Ndrangheta (Italian Mafia) Actually Works | How Crime Works | Insider

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Marisa Merico is the daughter of one of Italy's most notorious Mafia godfathers, Emilio DiGiovine of the 'Ndrangheta. She took over running the organized crime group after he was imprisoned and was herself later sentenced to time in prison in the UK and Italy for her involvement in the mob. The 'Ndrangheta is one of Italy's largest mafias, along with the Camorra in Naples and Cosa Nostra in Sicily.
Merico speaks to Insider about the methodology and history of the Calabrian Mafia and about her own experiences of growing up in a Mafia family. She is the author of "Mafia Princess," works as a criminologist, and speaks in prisons in the UK. She is an advocate for prison reform and helping women in the criminal justice system.

    I don't think she's trying that hard. The street drug trade (which ruins millions of lives every day), police being paid off to protect criminal businesses, none of that should seem normal to anyone. It says more about us, the worship so many have for this criminal element and the over-saturation of media about them which normalises it all, that we don't find any of this surprising.

    You're spot on. The mafia ran my family out of Calabria because we just wanted to work on the farm instead of be apart of the crime - we're from a small valley town with less than a few thousand people, yet the mafia's infectious reach still got to us. Worst part was that it was from our own direct family members, too; my nonna's brothers and first cousins. Peace was kept between my nonno and nonna's family because of the patriarchs of both families having a good relationship. It wasn't until my great nonno on my nonna's side passed away that things broke down, and things got more nefarious and open with the mafia dealings. Mafia are scum, and just because they're glorified and are a little bit more 'prestigious' and 'classy' than gangs like Crips/Bloods, MS-13 (because of all the movies) it doesn't change the fact that they're criminals. I have mafia in my family, but at the same time, my cousin can't open up a chain restaurant because it would "cause trouble for the locals" and they'd need to pay a cut in order to keep the 'neighborhood' happy.

    Women and children might not be targeted by other clans but its different if they want to escape this life. Like the case of Lea Garofalo, who was murdered by her own family after she tried to leave with her daughter. There's a TV series about this called The Good Mothers (based on the novel) which also depicts how poorly those wives and daughters are treated within these families. And for those who dont have the attention span to check out or listen to her story; born in Italy, English mother and Italian father. Came back to UK (Blackpool) aged 9. Hence the northern English accent. Went back to Italy as a young adult and became part of the 'family business'. Came back to UK later on and convicted of money laundering, spent time in Durham prison while Myra HIndley and Rose West were there.

    I took a gap year to work in Sicily teaching English, and even at my little level, wow, what I saw. I'd see burnt cars while walking to work, or burger vans who hadn't paid 'pizzo'. My school owner am sure was one of them as I was quite outspoken to her about not doing things for her like driving to dangerous villages on the roads etc and she swiftly got rid of me for no real reason when covid hit. I used to feel ok in some cafes but others had this dark and ominous presence. I had a student too who I just couldn't get rid of for 2 years with a big business and it was very scary, so I am glad I came back. Even at my little level you sense it.

    I come from the gargano area which is that little peninsula that sticks out in the Puglia region. There are several families (blood related families) that have been fighting a vendetta fueled war since 1979 that began over grazing rights. Now they're fighting over territory. You can't do anything or open a business or anything without going thru these families first. They are known for shotgun blasts to the face so that their family members can't see them in the casket.

This Italian guy made a pass at a married women and husband of that came out with machete. Italian guy was tough for Italy but not so much in Africa. This civilian took out his machete and slapped with blunt side of it on his head. Mafioso cried like a baby and got rescued by police. Right now African gangs have got a small foothold in Italy, few years down the line Ndangheta will work for African crime lords in Italy.

    I would like talk with this women as I had a friend who was a trafficking victim who managed to get out and was told about the ometra the code of silence. She had never heard heard of it before. The people who tried to recruit her said they were soilders. She was very much manipulated and brainwashed at one point into sex trafficking but managed to fight her corner and ended up receiving death threats because she was a police informant and was called a rat and a stool piegion.

    The hierarchy described in this video is totally messed up. They have whole different hierarchy than the one described. This one she talking about probably could be the 60's cosa nostra hierarchy. You can talk about the ndrangheta rankings for 2 days, she omitted almost everything from the bottom to the top of the pyramid. The are so many ranks in ndrangheta. She is giving straight misinformation

    There are levels of "criminality" that aren't as risky as others. The appeal depends upon what level is "comfortable" for the individual. Also.. there are crimes committed against the individual and those committed against the state. If the state was structured to truly protect & serve, yet allow freedom to those who can manage that freedom well, THEN there would be much less need for normal crimes (everything not including murders). But, in our world, when the state commits a criminal act it goes unpunished 95% or more of the time, while the average "nobody" is in danger of getting an excessive penalty for a crime, yet while other dangerous criminals go through the revolving door of what many self-righteous people consider "justice".

    It's 100% to show people what happens. I told a story from my old life and it involved me being violent. The guy said, "But you have never been violent in the six years we've been close". Yeah. Well. I had to make an example of them. I didn't have a choice. It was tell the world you can punk me off or tell the world you don't want smoke with me. You have to choose the latter in that lifestyle. I'm not a violent person. But. If you get me to a certain point, there's no going back, and I'm capable of things you wouldn't think. Grown men are afraid of me lol. Some of my friends say they'd never dream of crossing me. I mean ... Probably for the best. In this life I don't get pushed to that point really but if it happens the old me is coming out and you don't want to meet her lol.

    Calabrian "camorristi" have nothing to do with neapolitan camorra. "Camorrista" has a different meaning in calabrian ndranghita and it does not refer to neapolitan camorristi. Also there is no such thing as "Cosa nostra napoletana". "Cosa nostra" is specific for sicilian mafia. Neapolitan camorra is either called just "camorra" or auto-referenced as "il Sistema", the System.
