If all goes well, this could be a great day for Italia.
The country's two biggest mobsters both deposed the same day. :D

Interesting that this happened right after Berlusconi allegedly lost the elections!
(And I misread the thread title at first - "Silicon mob boss captured" - I thought it was about an evil implant's doctor or whatever :D

Well, I was more going on fake boobies than brain-implants - either way, don't like'em :D
But it was about damn time that they finally caught him.

Agreed. Cops over there must have their heads up their asses. How big is Sicily anyway?

Not all that big. It's an island off the coast of Italy.

I know. :p
Rhetorical, cops are dumb not being able to find someone on that island. Article said it made the guy legendary, hiding from them there. Police need more brainpower.

I know, but to remain uncaught for decades leads me to believe either the cops are incompetent or are completely corrupt.

Yeah. Then like in the U.S. they probably won't be able to prove anything and will have to imprison them on tax evasion or some shit like that. :rolleyes:
