But they were just two influential mafia bosses who were driving the reorganization of Cosa Nostra in Palermo and province. “Uncle Mariano, I suffered a damage to the building site, who may have been because I pay protection money?”. Or: “Uncle Gregory, I should recover the money from a lender.” Zu Mariano, Mario Marchese 77 years old on 1 January. And zu Gregory, Gregory Marquis, 81, made on 8 February. Already in the early eighties were loyalists of Salvatore Riina, the tyrant of Cosa Nostra. Mafia old-fashioned to the core. After serving years in prison by now were the lives of retirees. At least apparently. Investigation by the police of the ROS and the Monreale Group have discovered the great activism of the two godfathers. Including extortion, damage, investments in company shares and daily life in the clan. And tonight, it took a blitz in style prepared by the prosecutor Francesco Lo Voi and the added Leonardo Agueci and Vittorio Teresi. 64 people are reached by two arrest warrants. It is the colonels and soldiers that revolved around the godfathers elderly. And, in the meantime, traders and entrepreneurs were going to ask for an audience with mafia bosses. That’s the sign of true strength of Cosa Nostra, the consent. “Now, I want to know if it is addressed to me, since there was a second time,” said Mario Marchese a businessman who had suffered two attacks in his yard: “What should I do … I have to look at me or you They should look at others? “. And Marquis sentenced: “I am sludge”. Or, mavericks. Even for the mafia petty crime has become a problem. And the old bosses were trying to restore order. In the tradition.

THE CHARACTERS
Investigations of Demontis pm Sergio and Francesca Mazzocco say that Marquis had returned to guide the district of Villagrazia, the eastern part of Palermo, who already Riina had entrusted him in 1981 after the murder of Stephanie Bonte, the “Prince of Villagrazia”, the most authoritative exponent of the old city mafia. At one time, Mario Marchese was a loyalist of goodness; Then, in the mafia war, he betrayed, like others, and passed to the winning of Riina and Provenzano. The award was the scepter of command.
Gregorio Agrigento, brother of a lifer boss, is instead the representative of a Mafia family in the historical province (one of San Cipirello) that has always been linked to the boss Brusca of San Giuseppe Jato. And San Giuseppe Jato Agrigento had become the chief commandment. The prosecutor Francesco Del Bene, Amelia Luise and Siro De Flammineis have long followed his moves after his release, which took place in 2010. Gregorio Agrigento had been re-arrested in 2008, but two years later acquitted on a technicality, a defect of form which had blasted some important interceptions. Just by following the mobsters of the province of the police Monreale Group they arrived to the new (old) mafia in the city.
Marquis had regained his freedom in 2001. On the first maxi-trial was sentenced on appeal to 16 years, among the usual discounts of Italian justice had discounted 12. A talk about him to judge Falcone had been for first the repentant Salvatore Contorno. In the big blitz of 1984, it would have ended up in handcuffs even Mario Marchese. He was alleged to have run a drug refinery in the basement of his home in Villa Ciambra. “The handles on behalf of Bernardo Brusca of San Giuseppe Jato,” said Contorno. Zu Mariano still managed to avoid arrest, remained a fugitive until 1989.
tHE INTERCEPTION
were the directors of the mafia reorganized, between the city and the province, but there was great rivalry between the two godfathers. “A Gregory started on the brain,” thundered Marquis. “ S’arrivu to incucciarlo, has headlights novo I .” And again: “I should do that, sdisanuratu that’s … I sends a picciutteddu that I did not even know.” Words that seem to come from a book by Andrea Camilleri. They, however, are the arrows (authentic) of the Palermo mafia boss against that of the province, guilty – according to him – not to respect the rules of orthodoxy mafia. In the game there was also the appointment of a mafia boss, to Alton, “bearing” the family between the two districts. It ‘an old Mafia who came back to impose its blackmail. Campaign Mafia. Ruthless. In the province was about to burst a blood feud, only the intervention of the police prevented the worst.
What emerges from surveys is also a mafia often discussed his origins. Among the hottest issues that related to the treasure of Villagrazia clans, run by Stefano goodness. In the ROS interceptions are referred to property, which would be divided. Not without quarrels in the family.

For some time, even u zu Mariano Marchese became suspicious. Then, they came to tell him that he was the brother of Tusa to shoot, at the peak of yet another family quarrel. And, meanwhile, the carabinieri del Ros listened live. Thus, the case was resolved in a matter of hours. The culprit was another spry ottantantenne, Vincenzo Gambino.
