Hello, I am continuing this week with the Detroit Family to find out if there are future generations and futures for the Strait family.
For me this family is the most discreet very few arrests very little about them appear in the press it is surely due to the fact that there is a lot of blood ties in this family.
Peter 'Pete little' Tocco Born in 1977 is one or even the only insider or associate member who is under 50 years old do you know others?
And last questions is this family still powerful?

This is interesting...
I think that they are the most active family outside NY.
So i guess they have some power to add on to there family.

There are quite a few younger guys coming up. Little Pete Tocco is not made yet, but has been a bookie for quite some time.

"Gotti" Tocco is another up and comer. I believe he is in his early 40's. He is Jack Giacalone's driver and has been seen a lot with him around town.

There are quite a few others. Like young guys budding up to the D'Annas.

As for power, I'm not going to exaggerate but they still have pull. Especially on the upper east side of macomb county. Alot of bookmaking and drugs. There are quite a few legitimate places connected to these guys like Restaurants, bars, etc. and you will always have younger guys trying to become "gangsters" because they think it's cool.

The main 5 families is done to death, I always find the other smaller families interesting.

i thought little pete tocco and peter gotti tocco was the same guy. how many pete toccos are out there? theres also specs.

Is the exact opposite British.In Ny the 5 families had more recruitment pool and the little families like detroit will be done between 30 years.
The only reasons why a small oc crime family resist in a city where the white people are only the 10,6% of the popolation are that the family members are tied by blood and that was a bunch of bookies and white collar criminals; of course they had tied with the bikers but the more lucrative racket ie the drug was in the black gang hand.The only rat in the family Nove Tocco flipped due narcotics charges.

Does this family recruit Sicilians like the outfit where it recruits only italian american?

Yes,vincent meli and big Mike polizzi come from sicily,the same for the d'anna brothers.
Anyway every family try to made zips for rebuilt the ranks.

How many members are there in this family?
Does it have for a long time still enough young people to be able to continue and traffic knowing that there are other criminal organizations and gang

according to wiki they have 40+.
i think they have around that number...
i wonder if they have any contacts with other crime groups and gangs around detroit.

Bommarito before die was the liason with the bikers I dont know if had relations with the black gangs but I dont think the family was made by people from 50/60 to 70 y old that doesn't had the force to fight for drug turf.

The surname is Palazzolo a well known name in Terrasini.

Not many young members in this family apparently do you think it's the end for this family as for the Decavalcante?

The decavalcantes have more chances to survive because there are more italians in New Jersey that in Detroit. I think that the Detroit family will be done in the next 20 years.

Do you think that in 20 years she will be dead?
Do not you think they will recruit members in Italy?

First question:yes
Second question: Why? It's not the 1930s and in Detroit the whites are the minority so between 20 years maybe the canadian ndrangheta will made bussiness with the black gangs that rules on the city.

Do you think Ndrangheta will take back the territories left by the American Family?

furio are they even already in the us ??
i think i saw on some site it was report that they are in la. how can they survive there with all the street gangs ??

The ndrangheta was a big coke importer that sell it to midlevel trafficker and invested the money the real estates and activities (bar,restaurants ecc) so they don't have to fight to every thug with a gun for a street corner where sell few grams of coke or heroin.

So they provide the oc drugs ?
Only coke or more types of drugs ?

Sincerly I don't know.

are they even sell it to the bonannos ? or gambinos ? (who deal with drugs alot)

Grosse Pointe Park and other places in Michigan still have a lot of Italians if LE doesn't do anything I don't see why they would be gone in 20 years.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_Am...talian_ancestry

In Michigan there are 466,461 italians (4.7%) so maybe the family will be done in Detroit where the white are the 10.6% of the city popolation but survive out Detroit.

Furio if for you the Detroit family will not exist in 20 years for the other 9 remaining families do you think they stay for how long?
Chicago DeCavalcante, Patriarca, Philadelphia, Colombo, Lucchese, Bonanno, Gambino, Genovese?

Miklo its all a question of recruitment pool,the 5 families and decavalcante had more italians to made; for me in the 2047 the american mob will confined only in New York and NJ.

-Peter "Pete Gotti" Tocco is the son of Salvatore "Mops" Tocco another Detroit Wiseguy.
-Pete "Little Pete" Tocco is a different person. He's just a low level bookie for now. But who knows maybe in a few years he'll be a somebody. I mean he's been being groomed for this probably his whole life.
-Peter "Specs" Tocco is the current Street Boss of the Detroit Mob. He is no relation to Gotti Tocco which I know is surprising. There are a lot of Tocco's in the greater Detroit area. A lot of them are not Mobbed up.

Nobody knows the extend of Ndrangheta in the USA and that's the million dollar question.

It safe to assume some of their coke gets into the US. They have large wholesale narcotic operations just north of the border in Canada .

It's probably safe to assume they have relatives, associates , crew members here already either to scout the area for distro routes , general networking business and / or investment opportunities , ways to launder money or all of the above .

Like I said with significant and long standing Canada operations and likely with Gambino and Bonnano multiple Kilos on the regular are making its way into the USA but have they made the decision and established the networks to handle multiple hundred or thousand of Kilos on a monthly basis is fascinating to me . We know wherever the Ndrangheta have family they are likely to set up large distro networks in that country so I'm anxious to know whether they have the capabilities and frankly balls to go big in the USA. Not to mention we know the Sicilains have been trying to get back into the USA and they also have longstanding narco relationships with the Bonnanos and Gambinos and how does that work itself out between the 2 criminal networks . Fascinating shit IMO, plus with Barney in charge and the west side always having 1 or 2 most trusted lieutenants handling junk in the past , where do they fit in ? Seems something is definitely going on but with whom and how much is the question .
