Cue the Godfather theme music….
As most of you know, and maybe not. My BFF, hubby, confidant, Knight in shining armor is a direct product of Palermo, Sicily. His father actually ran with Lucky Luciano and Myer Lansky back in the day. He even has a picture of him and his gang having lunch at some restaurant. His dad is like 99 years old. Seriously.
Anywho, Giuseppe will tell anyone, especially woman, that if you date a Sicilian, two to one, you’re dating someone that’s done ten to twenty.
Which brings me to this.
He comes from a HUGE family. Ninety-five percent of them are hard honest working people. His favorite uncle use to be a Politian that fought against the mafia and help clean up Palermo.
Use to be. He was murdered ten years ago. His torso was found in the river.
Giuseppe’s cousin belonged to the gang that did it. It was his father.
He went to the funeral vowed vengeance and two weeks later, three men where found sliced up in an alley.
He’s been on the run ever since…
Until now.
He’s back!
Our mutual “friend” called us from the States (We’re in Toronto now as I type this) and said, “Hey, guess who called?”
Giuseppe was in tears. Me too, but for a different reason. I don’t like this guy. He’s evil personified. Yeah, I had the pleasure of meeting him. He’s charming, Never trust charming people.
Giuseppe wants him to turn himself in. The worse he’ll get is life.
I know, you’re asking, “Isn’t that bad enough?” You read the stuff prior right?
So we’ve had a very emotional conversation with cousin. Don’t know where he is. And really don’t want to know. But we are trying to convince him to do the right thing
We’ll see. Stay tuned
