mafia
Don’t mess with the mob; a look into organized crime networks and mafia families, the real-life gangsters that inspired The Godfather.
Tony Little Bottles
My name is Tony Viles, they call me Little Bottles. My job usually consists of hanging out with the boys drinking beer and messing with the ladies. Now imagine my surprise when I get a message that the boss wants to see me. I haven’t done anything wrong that I know of. So, I’m a bit anxious to meet him. My time in the mob has been truly uneventful seeing as how I’ve only been involved a year. I just turned 19 but I look 25.

Raphael OlowoyoPublished 3 years ago in CriminalA walk through hate
To take a walk through the mind of a White supremacist is to take a path through hell. I spent over one decade inside the Confederate Hammerskins. I hold many tales, but none involve hatred of another race. Do I hate? In a sense, yes. But, I hate the normal things in life, Asparagus, liver and onions, the gas prices, and stubbing my toe. I have never hated another race, let alone have seen any white supremacist commit a crime against another race. Yes, it happens, sadly. But times have changed and so has the gang world. In prison, and on the street, the only constant is idiocy. I have been in some pretty rough prisons. And it was never different.
Steven MawyerPublished 4 years ago in CriminalThis Is Not a Love Story
She said that she was going somewhere cold and green and never coming back. None of us believed it. They all said things like that, and they all came home eventually, some in taxis and some in caskets. Not her, though. Lana came back with her head held high, and you could just see the skin sucked to the bones of her cheeks, the withering look in her eyes. She was still too proud to give into our defeated arms (we had been waiting weeks for her return, afraid she’d run the rented Ford off the road, into the river just as Ryan had).
Rachel ElseyPublished 4 years ago in CriminalThe day my life turned upside down
when I was a kid all I wanted to do was build. I would take devices apart, put them back together. You could say that it was my thing. In a few years I started helping my dad build. Then as I hit 18 I started working as a subcontractor. Things got tough though in time, I ended up jobless, homeless and I had no money to my name. That’s when I met Jerrico. He told me he would look after me, yea what a load of crap.
Colin WatkinsPublished 4 years ago in CriminalThe Time I Briefly Saw a Real Yakuza
As hard as it is to explain to anybody on the outside who has no idea who I am, what I do, or anything I'm involved in, it's almost an understatement to say that "yakuza" became something of an on-brand identity for me this past year. For starters (and this is going to sound absolutely ludicrous), I was pretty deeply involved in a very public conversation about an American anime voice actor who had allegedly been involved in numerous sexual harassment and assault allegations over the last few decades. When a Japanese friend of mine saw my Twitter feed and was beginning to grow concerned about some of the horrendous things she was seeing not only about the actor but about his vitriolic and vengeful fan base that she didn't necessarily understand, I made the mistake of responding to her tweets to me in Japanese briefly explaining the situation I was going through. From there, that fan base began spinning the narrative to say that I was slandering the actor's name to Japan, and that--even more absurdly--surely by me speaking such ills of this actor in another language, I have incited the rage of the Japanese crime syndicate, the yakuza.
Kaylyn SaucedoPublished 4 years ago in CriminalThe Hell's Kitchen Adventures of Toni Cipriani and the NYPD
"Toni Cipriani was an Italian mobster who had spent some time in Hell's Kitchen, New York. Toni had been quietly keeping tabs on the likes of Niko Belic and the metro booming Rasta, Little Jacob, as he strategized his way to supremacy. Toni Cipriani's knowledge of the two underworld bosses would allow Toni to erase the history of the Rastafarian and the Siberian. According to reports, the Colombian Cartel led by Mr. Montana has been relatively quiet in recent events."

Last year in the month of August, when I was traveling to help a Christian girl, who was abducted by a brick kiln factory contractor, I received a phone call from one Dr. Qaisar, who introduced himself as a Project Director for Pakistan China relationship. He told me he has been appointed in the department that connects the Chinese boys and Pakistani Christian girls for marriage. He asked me to identify the Pakistani Christian girls who are willing to marry Chinese boys.
Atif JamilPublished 5 years ago in CriminalWhat's Life in the Mafia Like?
Scarface. Growing Up Gotti. The Godfather. West Side Story. A Bronx Tale. Fuggetaboutit... The list of movies, books, television shows, and musicals inspired by the Italian mafia grows every single year, and it's a genre that never seems to get old. Heck, it's one of the most timeless fiction genres to touch upon the American crime world.
Cato ConroyPublished 5 years ago in CriminalWhat Happened to Cult Leaders' Wives?
When you read about killer cults and dangerous cult leaders like Charles Manson, it’s hard not to be fascinated. The kind of experiences that people have when they’re in cults are surreal, terrifying, and push the limit of what the human experience is defined as.
