Mafia Boss & London Gangster Reveal Their Most Violent Crimes | Crime Stories

Ойын-сауық

In this episode of Crime Stories, former mob boss Michael Franzese (@michaelfranzese) and old-school gangster Bobby Cummines meet for the first time to compare violent crime in New York and London. They discuss what it's like to take the Mafia blood oath, work alongside the notorious Kray twins and reveal the brutal regrets that still haunt them. Both agree they are lucky to have escaped the dangerous world of organised crime with their lives.
Michael is now on tour across the UK, please follow this link for more information:

    @@f32440iBruh you do know he was a street boss right. That’s literally what he was. Caporegime basically signifies head of the family at least in Sicily. Caporegime (street boss) is the head of an organized crime syndicate who commands a crew of soldiers. So a captain or caporegime as well as an under boss which actually in Michael’s time was Sammy, were street bosses. Different titles but literally street boss. So yea Michael was indeed boss, a street boss.

    I grew up having a family of British folks living with me. They lived with us for 12 years so I've known them my whole life, and unknowingly I picked up the gent's habit of "silently affirmation" as a listener to the speaker, the small mmhmms, and hmms. Bobby doing that in the video brought back so much nostalgia.

    Regarding the shocking Age Difference: Has nothing to do with Genes but how much Stress, Bad Food, Diseases etc. you experienced in your Life. I'm German and one of my Relatives was a convicted War Criminal of WW2 he spent most of WW2 in a 24/7 stressful Environment and after the War both in a Gulag for 10 Years and then also a few Years in a Western Allied Prison in Germany. He died at the age of 97 but while i grew up with him around he basically looked the same at Age 68 as my Paternal Grandfather (Also a WW2 Veteran but not a War Criminal nor ever a POW) when he was in his late 80s. I often think about that stark Contrast and how it explains why a lot of WW2 Veterans especially (from any Country) somehow looked and acted like they're in their 90s while they were in their early 70s, while their Children who are now in their early 70s look about 20 Years younger than their Fathers did Prost & Cheers from Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps

    Honestly, love the quote "Prison is the university of crim," because it is absolutely right, with the way many prison treat prisoners (even ones with realise dates), you really wonder how people can say prison teaches people a lesson and puts them on the right path as it really doesn't. It makes their life health inside prison and out, many go right back into illegal activities even scaling up compared to what they previously did. Being in prison does not help people and never will be when society has been and as it is right now (if it doesn't change) it will continue to be the main problem. People's families, their local environment, their educational environment, it's what shapes people into who they become and who they associate it with. So, if you've never been to prison, never came close or never thought about it, really thank the people and environment you grey up around and in, as they helped shape you onto a good path from the beginning as at the end of the day people make choices themselves, but you can't always blame people for making bad choices if you never consider how they felt and what choices they felt they had.
