It is believed a country wide mafia manhunt is underway as the new “most-wanted” of the criminal underworld is hunted down by multiple famlies – including their leaders, of the American Mafia. The unknown survivalist – nicknamed by the participants of the hunt as “321” due to his alliases, has been repeatedly shot at and apparently brutally slain multiple times, but always returns to be hunted again. The same fugetive is believed to be the very individual responsible for the insults and death threats directed at many of AM’s top players.

To shed more light on the subject, we caught a quick word with Bocephes1971 – the leader of the American Corleone Family.

Bocephes: I took this kid in to my family. He caused problem after problem. But I’m a good Boss, I take care of him, look out for him. Then one day when I’m not here, he gets whacked for starting fight with wrong person. He was asking people for money. I had to buy his way out of problems. Cost me about 2mil over 4 or 5 months. I tried to teach him about respecting people, but when he got whacked he blamed me and told me he was going to kill me. He wanted my blood. Not just my blood, but my families blood and all the corleones blood. He wanted war, so I’m giving him what he wants: blood and war.

Editor: How far did he go before you sent out this “hunt” for him?

Bocephes: He went way too far threating an old frail man like myself (cough)

Editor: You have called for many of your closest allies to be on full alert and shoot on sight. How long will this hunt go for?

Bocephes: Until he can learn respect for all the family leaders. We have all worked hard to get where we are. He can show respect.

Editor: You seem to really hate this guy, but what’s the nicest thing you can say about him?

Bocephes: I don’t hate him, he just needs to learn. The nicest thing I can say about this kid, is he is easy to find when it comes time to teach him a lesson.

Editor: Do you think he will eventually learn?

Bocephes: No, I don’t think he is capable. I think he has mental issues. I mean, who in their right mind wants war when there is peace to be had.

Editor: Finally, is there anything you would like to say to our readers?

Bocephes: My boss, Joe King (RIP) taught me how to grow and how to respect people. How to look on my family as my own children. Care for them and give them what they need. Sometimes that includes disipline.

Michael Corleone

The story of Michael Corleone is one that could have been made for the movies. Michael came from Corleone, Sicily with his two brothers, Don Vito and Mr. Xela. Word spread to Corleone about the death of their father, who was killed while running the Corleone Crime Family. Having built up the family, he made some enemies along the way, and one of those enemies found a way to hit the Don.

After the three brothers arrived in America, vengeance was on there mind. Michael decided to take that vengeance out himself. Michael murdered his fathers enemies, and had to flee back to Sicily to hide out. The Corleone Family was taken over my Don Vito, because Michael, the eldest brother, could not assume control, as he was in Sicily during the time of the transition. While under Don Vito’s control the Corleone Family began to rise in power. Seizing opportunities that presented themselves, The Corleones began to establish power that began to upset some of the older mafia families. Don Vito was killed during one of the mob wars that ensued during the struggle for power.

Mr. Xela being Don Vito’s under boss assumed power, and The Corleones power began to rise even greater. Mr. Xela first task as Capo Di Tutti Cappi was to vanquish all enemies of the family. The Corleones now with over a 100 members were focused on taking over America, when tragedy struck.

To this day, it is still unknown why Mr. Xela was killed. Perhaps it was a outstanding beef from his younger days. Those stories that have been told as to what happened are still just stories.

While all this was going on Michael returned to America as a Cardinal, and sent to Oklahoma to do his duties there. After both of his brothers died, Michael had enough and took over control of The Corleone Crime Family.

Under Michael’s control the family has steadily risen. Claiming profits of 10 billion dollars every year, the Corleones have achieved status like no other. Michael has kept all the captains in place, Tolly, Raymond, and Xela’s former RHM Ruthless. Ruthless holds a place in the Corleone Empire as the one who avenged Mr.Xela deaths.  With these members Michael has portrayed himself as an honor filled leader. His ruthlessness however should not be overlooked. During many wars, like with the Carlonesi war, the Irish war, Yakuza war and Scarface Union war, Michael has proven that he can be unmatched. Michael also has the distinction of killing Jackass and fatally shooting Administrator, who happen to survive after doctors did a heart transplant, two of the most powerful men in America.

Michael can be looked to as a mentor also.  He has been a great teacher and leader to many members that come across his way.  He has showed people like the Great Benny Noodles Jr skills that are necessary to become a great warrior in this thing of ours.

As time passes who really knows what will become of this wise old man.  Will he just pass on, without any fuss, to be forgotten like so many others.  Or will Michael Corlenoe be remember for not only the way he held the Corleone name high, but also as a fair, intelligent leader.  Time will tell, but for now he is still with us, in control of the most powerful empires in America today.  Counting his billion dollars and living his life like a Wise Old Man should.

Summer Slaughter

Sometimes when a low-life does something to try and increase his reputation it goes unoticed.  There have been a lot of thugs hiding out amongst the regular citizens over the past few months.  Waiting around hoping that one day things will be forgotten.  However, with good dectective work, and a little luck, these so-called citizens were found out.  A list was handed out to all major mafioso around the country, and given the orders to clean out the betrayers, wanna-be’s and low-level goombas that don’t really have a place in this system.  What has come next is the ruthless slaughter of anyone who doesn’t be long to a regime.  Bodies have been piling up around the country and the police don’t have any leads as to who is doing it.  One thing is for certain, as the Summer continues, the Slaughter remains.

Other News

Late Saturday night there was a stabbing at Luigi’s Bar and Grill in New York City.  Details are still unclear as to what happened and what it was over, but a few wispers tell me that it was retaliation for a hit on another family.  Leo-Dicap, Don of the Tattaglia Family was fataly stabbed in the neck.  Witness say that Leo was sitting in the VIP lounge with a few women beside him having a nice steak dinner.  Being as there are security guards posted at the front doors of the VIP lounge, the assaliant must have been known be Leo.  There wasn’t a struggle, and no shots fired in return.  Leo’s gun was still in its holster untouched.  Police are reviewing the bloody mess, but are staying tight lipped about it.  Another night in mafia land.

Also in other news, Mr. Rizzuto, Don of the Rizzuto Family, and propriator of the AMtimes, was arrested early last week for assaulting an officer, assault causing bodily harm, and possesion of marijauna.  Apperently, after going to the bar with some associates, a couple of punks tried to stir things up with the Don.  Big mistake.  A fight broke out, outside and Mr. Rizzuto ended up knocking one of the punks to the ground.  While he was kicking him in the head, a police officer tried to break it up, only to end up with a broken nose for his trouble.  After a 3 more officers arrested Rizzuto, searched him, they found he was holding 12 grams of marijuana.  He was placed into the booking room, and released on a $2500 bond.  It was his first offence in nearly 10 years.  His lawyer states that theres a good chance that he will be free from jail time.  Hopefully he’s right.

THE BLACKWIDOW

The BlackWidow, one of the most notorious mafioso around, deadly and silent.  Under estimate the spider and it will come with swift venom, that kills without mercy and quickly.  Stalking its prey in the shadows before unleashing furry unseen by most.

The BlackWidow was born in Nevada, to ScarlettMessi.  Some say that the great Benny Noodles Jr is the father, which she might get her traits from.  Either way the Widows life as a child wasn’t the easiest.  At an early age she witnessed her mothers death, being accidentally shot by her long time friend.  The story goes that one night while playing poker, with drinks flowing casually, Scarlett decided to show off her skills with a hand gun.  Twisting and flipping it in the air, like a gunslinger from the west.  Her friend, thought that he could to better.  It was a fatal mistake.  While spinning the gun on his finger, it accidentally went off, the bullet piercing her chest and rupturing an artery in her heart.  Widow heard the noise, and came out to see her mother lying on the floor dying.  It was her first taste of death, but not her last.

Growing up as a teenager, she took to the streetlife and quickly impressed the local thugs with her willingness to take on anyone and anything.  Men followed her around hoping to get close to her, but after seeing what happened with her mother, she was leery to let anyone near.  Soon, Tony Montana Jr took a shine to the spider and she was quickly accepted to that family, doing jobs and robberies to make a name for herself.  Then one night, at a night club, she met someone that would change things around for her, for the better.

It wasn’t long after BlackWidow and Scarface hooked that things were clearly moving for them together.  After a blessing from Tony Montana Jr, she was able to leave that family to become closer to Scarface.  I wasn’t long before she would prove her loyalty, not only to Scarface, but to the Corleone’s as well.  Moving through the ranks, and earning more respect, the decision was made for her to branch off and start leading her own family..The Corleone Vedova Sindacato.

Always friendly to other mafioso, BlackWidow made many allies, but enimies are quick to learn that you do not want to cross the BlackWidow.  Things have been growing for her, family on the rise and wealth coming from multiple sources.  BlackWidow is well on her way to being a Wise Old Woman.

I’ve recently caught with BlackWidow for an interview….

Mr. Rizzuto

When you first arrived on the Mafia scene…many thought that you were a guy in disguise, how did that make you feel?

BlackWidow

Honestly? A little annoyed. I understand there aren’t a lot of females in the mafia scene, so I understood the skepticism. But I’d be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy proving them all wrong lol.

Mr. Rizzuto

As being one of the only female mafiso, have there been any trouble with the male counter parts?

BlackWidow

Not really, everyone is going to have enemies. Right after our marriage I was shot at a couple times by an old enemy of his, but for the most part I feel like being a chick made it a little easier for me to have conversations and build relationships with the other mafia leaders.

Mr. Rizzuto

I’ve noticed you’ve created a family, how did that become?

BlackWidow

For a while I didn’t want to be a family leader, didn’t want the responsibility. I enjoyed being a part of L’Elite Corleone and being Scarface’s RHM, but after I ranked to Capo di Tutti Capi, a lot of other leaders were questioning when I was going to start a family. With all of their support, I decided to go for it. =)

Mr. Rizzuto

Thank you for the interview

BlackWidow

Your Welcome

Benny Noodles Jr

The Legend

Benny Noodles Jr. was born and raised in Brooklyn New York by his father, the great Benny Noodles.  Benny Noodles at the time was the ruler of the New York and the Founder of the Bloodline Alliance.  While working his contacts through New York City and surrounding boroughs, he was elected to be Governor of New York.  Late one evening while working at the office, an assassins bullet pierced through his chest.  He was found dead the next morning by his secretary.  Benny Jr. was only 17 at the time of his fathers assassination.

Over the next few months Benny Jr’s hate grew for the ones who perpetrated this murder of his father.  He had a plan to get his revenge and take back what was once his fathers territory.  A ruthless person, Benny Jr would stop at nothing to get what he wanted.  He reached out to some of the contacts that his father made previously before him, and together they began strategizing and organizing a new era of mafia families.
Through hard work, Benny Jr rebuilt the family his father once had, The Bloodline Alliance.  It was clear to those around at the time that, this time the family was stronger than ever.  He wouldn’t stand for traitors and people who were not loyal to him and proved that by taking out perpetrators of this himself.

The Bloodline Alliance was quickly become a force, and branches of other families resulted in this.  There were a total of nine expansion families.  Each one, although separate, loyal to Benny Noodles Jr.

He went on to create The Illuminati Order (A.K.A.) The Ones Who See All, and The Noodles Crime Family.  It seemed like there was an empire in the making.  With The Noodles Crime Family and The Illuminati working together, New York was under complete control of Benny Noodles Jr.  This empire was one of the largest of all time, and the Noodles Empire had a lot of power and respect with other families around.  This Empire ruled New York for years.

As Benny Jr got older it was clear that everything his father had built, and what he rebuilt, would last as long as he wanted it to.  He was declared by some as the greatest ruler New York has ever known.

Benny Jr grew to become a Wise Old Man, and along with other powerful bosses around the nation sat on a seat of The AMFU (American Mafia Families Union), representing New York.  Together they sat down and hashed out many rules and kept things in the nation under control, and kept strays from ruining everything that they have worked for.

During a short absence from his family, so enemies thought they could take advantage of that.  However, after the return of Benny, together with AMFU, they quickly showed why they are the most powerful in the entire American Mafia.  It didn’t take long to realize that, once something happens than all allies form a united front to dispatch of any enemies that had ideas of running things there way.

How powerful was Benny Noodles Jr.?  He was considered great by many people and proved that greatness by becoming the first Moderator of American Mafia.org.  As an innovator he was first to create and Empire, by expanding his organization and having each of those families acting like one big family.

You can call Benny Jr. a philosopher, a mentor, a trend setter….but most of all you can call Benny Noodles Jr. a Legend.

He was no ordinary person, a great leader, and feared nothing.  Not ever the gods themselves could make him flinch.  Benny had a great life and he lived it to the fullest.

Benny has retired from the Mafia lifestyle.  His legacy, however, will fully live on with the emipre he has built.  Along with Venicii III, Paulie, and Mr. Rizzuto, the empire will only grow, and never surrender to any thing that may threaten this.  Even though Benny is retired, his rule of NY is still there.  I’m sure if you see a Wise Old Man walking down the streets, being greeted with respect, than you can be sure Benny is in town.

AMFU RULES

Does anyone think that the AMFU’s power is not absolute? Take another look.  A few weeks ago, some high ranking members of the Noodles Crime Empire were killed without any reason.  Many speculated about the cause of this, however nothing was ever said aloud.  There apparently no witnesses to these crimes, causing even further confusion to the situation.  Nobody was coming forward, with any information, even at the request of the AMFU and its leaders.  Without any leads, police were worried that retaliation might ensue and there would be a trail of blood and bodies.  They were right.

Over the course of a couple of weeks, AMFU got together to come up with a way to find the killers of Benny’s boys.  Now there was alot of investigation involved and there were two suspects charged with there murder.  Patreek, boss of the Yakuza family, and JohnTX, boss of the Scarface Union.  Now both bosses were respected at the time, however there are certain rules that must be followed when dealing with family members, and those rules were broken.

Patreek, was first found in NY state, and after a quick shootout, fled to Texas where he was located. Patreeks bodyguards just kept appearing out of nowhere and the bullets kept flying. Finally Don Vito Jr, Ruthless, Rosnousky, Tolly, Ross, Assassino and Michael Corleone, were able to take down all his bodyguards. During the hail of gunfire, Patreek received numerous wounds to his body, but still would not surrender.  Finally Ross, approached Pat while he was lying on the ground, and said..”This is for Benny and the AMFU.”  to which Patreek replied. “I accept this situation!, long live Yakuza.”. Then with a quick pull of the trigger Patreek was killed.  I am told that he held his head high and died honorably and tough like a Yakuza should.

JohnTX however was one of the toughest Russians ever.  I am told that it took numerous attempts to finally get to him.  All of the AMFU top assassins were involved and it took all of there fire power to bring him down.  Finally after John was sent to the hospital after catching two shots to the chest, Michael Corleone snuck into the hospital after getting a tip for a corrupt officer on his where abouts.  Michael than took out an icepick from his back pocket, and with a pillow over Johns face pierced it through his temple.  Silent death is what the correct term should be.  The massive amount of time and energy to killed this tough boss was almost god like, but in reality god doesn’t die.

Other News

There seems to be a grudge brew between low-level mafioso and the Corleone Empire.  Gulledge, has seemingly called out Michael and his Corleone Empire, by going to the streets and bad mouthing him.  This probably stems from the dismissal of The O’brians, the Irish mafia, his former borgata.  This could be a big mistake in doing so, or it could be a show of balls to prove that he isn’t afraid of the big dogs.  Nothing has developed yet, but I’m sure that this won’t be the end of it.

Also recently there has been a new family created, The Corleone Vedova Sindicato, with Black Widow taking command there.  Be on the look out for an interview with the Spider herself shortly.

Thank You For Reading

Today’s events are fabulous, since elections were over, many distinguished members became Governor, Cardinal and even Boss of Bosses.

One Governor called cow_girl was shortly assassinated on 22th October at 12:43 am in Nevada, after she took the oath for Governor place.
Another great event is that so-called “War” between Gambino’s and Anastasia Crime Family is over, after a little golf tournament, where both bosses made an agreement.

More to come…

Update
On a nice and warm sunny day, I sat in a park, where children played with others, birds were singing, dogs were running around and cars passing by.

I started to write down notes about this fabulous new “Boss of Bosses” we have, called Nicko Vercetti, former family leader of Vercetti Syndicate.I have made a lot of searching on the Internet about him and I also spent many days in libraries around New York.
Nicko Vercetti was born on 24th March 1978. He was one of the fourth children in Vercetti family, raised by Appolonia and Edoardo Vercetti.
They lived in Italy, but soon after local Don killed Nickos both parents and brothers and one sister, his uncle took Nicko and they both sat on a ship that sailed them to USA.
They settled down in Colorado.Nickos father went to work for local Wiseguy and Nicko himself went to school.

As usually Nicko wasn`t good in math, chemistry or anything else, so he was kicked out soon from school.He started hang around with local street thugs and he became dealing in drugs, booze and other illegal things.
On 31th December his father died in throat-cancer and it was sad day to all the locals. Shortly after that Nicko became working with few wise guys and started to do felonies, such as hijacking trucks, mugging and robberies.
They even started their own prostitution business and paid a little piece of actions to local Street Boss.
Soon Nicko became a Made member of Anastasia Crime family and was untouchable. He made hits for the family, I found out that somewhere 21 murders were on his list.
Nicko Vercetti was very loyal to his family, he was respected mobster and very good earner.

One day his best friend from childhood he grew up with called Ribento, was stabbed to death in a bakery shop.Nicko knew that if that hit was with reason then he will be next, so he took his daughter and traveled to New York. There they settled down in Manhattan and bought apartment on 21th and 5th street corner.
Few weeks went by and Nicko were introduced to a local Don, so-called “Joe The Boss”. Nicko got his own crew after and were Captain soon.
Since New York is head of the five families, then there were always killings between families for who controls what.
Nicko was a smart guy he knew how to become powerful and how to cut a piece of this war between families. He soon made agreement with another family Boss called “Don Barzini” to whack “Joe The Boss” and for that Nicko would get the hole control over his own family. But since he knew that “Don Barzini” won’t let him stay alive after killing “Joe The Boss” he made another agreement with third family boss called “Jimmy The Gent” from Genovese Crime family.

Now Nicko started to make a plan how to eliminate both bosses and become himself “Boss of Bosses” with Genovese Crime Family help, because “Jimmy The Gent” was in Commission.
On 4th June two hitmen shot to death “Don Barzini” when he was in church with his two daughters and 2 bodyguards.At the same time three assassins dressed in police uniforms stepped into “Joe The Boss” headquarters and killed him brutally, with tongue cut out. It also meant that “Joe The Boss” had a big mouth and it was a message for other Bosses.
Now with two Bosses death, Nicko took control of everything, it was like in the-mid 1930s, when Charles “Lucky” Luciano did the same to inherit power for himself.
Two days later, all Bosses around United States came to Apalachin to discuss about new “Boss of Bosses”. Nicko was elected for “Boss of Bosses” thanks to “Jimmy The Gent” who hooked him up with another vote.
Since that day, Nicko lives like nowadays Drug Kingpin and try to raise his daughter to become Governor for local state.

*I looked at the watch and time was exactly to leave this park and go home to my wife.
I knew that this story will bring much respect to Nicko Vercetti and I hope he will last long.

So live long Nicko Vercetti the “Boss of Bosses”.*

Its your favorite time of the week again folks, its time for another edition of the AM Times. So lets step back from the madness, grab a cup of coffee, or rum for you Mr_Xela, kick back and leave the crime for later.

The Gambino Crime Family

The Gambino Crime Family are one of the most powerful and respected families in America, ruling New York with an iron fist. The Gambinos took New York when Constantine, former leader of New York and The Barzini Crime Family was killed (see previous article). The Gambinos are a friendly family, taking in all comers with welcome arms, teaching the new Mafioso’s the ropes and making them prosper as they grow. When asked what he thought it was that made Benny such a good family leader, Lou-The-Wrench replied, he takes care and protects his own. Even one of the most powerful and respected players in the game, Jackass, says he is a hark working guy. Short, sweet and simple is all that is needed to describe Benny and his family, they have proven to be worthy of the respect and fear shown. If you would like to join the Gambinos speak to one of their members and they will get you set up.

Guards To Get Aggressive And Gunny

The prison walls are becoming full of carvings and graffiti and the cell mates are starting to pass the time by talking to each other. Since the resent ban of blackjack in many county jails, cell mates have found other ways to pass the time. Guards constantly walk by cells to hear laughing and goofing around like teenage boys. It has gotten to the point that people are committing misdemeanours to get into jail and have fun too. Local jails are making the push to bring back blackjack so that the jails do not become overcrowded with people thus increasing taxes to feed the people that ran over your dog in his car. Guards are also paying the price having to regularly walk into cells and redo the walls with paint and fill in carvings done by inmates. Some guards think its a good thing that inmates are so happy because in-jail murder rates have gone down tremendously. Some guards even join in the boys club of the cell mates.

This could be bad because many believe, being close friends with the jailbirds means the guards will start bringing in beers and other things the inmates want to have a good time which would inturn make even more people want to go to jail. Soon enough we may have the full country inside prisons having a good time. But having a good time is not what this country is about, it’s about working until you’re old and about to retire realizing your 401K bank account only has $5 in it and having to work until you die. Ah America.

Interview With A Local Mafioso

Thanks for sitting down with me this evening, I understand you would like to remain anonymous for this interview so we will refer to you as, it puts the lotion on the skin.

Thanks for having me Lexi and I just wanted to say I love what you’ve done with the paper.

So it puts the lotion on the skin, how do you like the life of a gangster?

Well Lexi it is very rewarding, you get a s**t load of money and girls, what else in life is there? You also get lifelong friends that are willing to do anything to help you.

What did you think of the war between The Barzinis and The Gambinos? Where you rooting for a certain side?

It was sad to see such an influential member die but also good to get to see a new era. I wasn’t on a side in particular but I was hoping for some changes.

What are your views on the new President?

Going by the interview he had with you I think he is spending a little to much time parading around gloating about being President and not enough time making any changes.

And it puts the lotion on the skin do you condone the killing of inactive thugs for ranking purposes?

As long as the people killing the inactive don’t get blood hungry and start killing active members im fine with it, done it myself one or two times.

And what do you think of all the talk about spies in the families?

Its just wrong, the families are suppose to be united yet they are resorting to putting spies in one an others families. Its disgusting, these actions are what starts wars and cause people to get killed, hopefully the bosses will come to their sense and pull their spies out.

Thanks again for your time it puts the lotion on the skin, I wish you success in the future.

Thanks you Lexi, its nice get my opinions out there.

Signed,

It puts the lotion on the skin.

Joke Of The Week

There was a guy named Billy, he has been wanting to sleep with this girl he sees everyday. He didn’t have the courage to ask her out, so he offered her $100 to have to have sex with him. He was gonna throw it on the ground, and he promised to be done before she could pick it up. She declined, but when she told her boyfriend about it that night, her boyfriend quickly said, Tell him $200 and he can do it. So, when she saw Billy the next day, she said, OK… $200 and let’s get it done. Shortly after she spoke with Billy, her boyfriend tried to call her but there was no answer. She called him back 30 minutes later, and her boyfriend picked up yelling, What the hell took you so long?!. And she said, That son of a b***h had all quarters!

Good morning ladies and Mafioso, welcome to another edition of the AM Times. This past fortnight there has been a lot of new gangsters killed due to more experienced, high ranked players. We also have an interview with the old AM Times editor, Mr-Vercetti. The Story Of Mr-Vercetti Vercetti started out as a thug in Constantine’s family, The Barzini Crime Family. He was in this family for a long time, rising up the ranks and gaining respect, with most people. That is when he met LexiRae and they got married, lucky man
