I have to leave a comment here.

Maybe you mean the entire Europe and the World just because, despite what you think, the 'Ndrangheta organisation is wherever you think it could be. So every good people have to be so grateful to a person like Nicola Gratteri or Michele the journalist.

Just one thing, he never persecute bankers or financial societies.... as Falcone and borsellino (they yes, were killed by mafia/state) taught, follow the money and will find the real mafia. A part of them, also chinnici and costa died....why?because they followed the money. Gratteri is good, but he thinks that the real mafia is there in Calabria, among sheepers and builders. He also think that if you smoke a joint, 'the molecules of your brain explode'...

Yes, it is out of this world. You have to consider that 'Ndrangheta is only one of the biggest mafias in Italy (there is Cosa Nostra, Camorra, Società Foggiana, Sacra Corona Unita, Mafia Zingara of Rome). So if you sum up their revenues all together you have an amount of money that could be comparable to the GDP of some western countries. But if you listen to politicians, mafia seems to be non-existing. It seems to appear only when a civilian gets killed by mistake. But mafia is more dangerous and rich than ever. It is spread all over the world. Many ndrangheta families have members in Canada because it is easier to clean dirty money or in North Europe where they control the biggest ports in Europe like Rotterdam and Antwerp. That's such a shame for Italy, such a beutiful country with beautiful people but with so many problems...

There was another Maxi trial of a similar type (1986-1992) against the Sicilian Mafia: Cosa Nostra. A whole prison to be reconstructed into a courthouse and trial began. All the Mafiosi could easily be controlled and bought into the courtroom as it was within the Prison complex. More than 300 Mafiosi were convicted to over 2000 years in prison. The two prosecutors who led it Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino were assassinated as the duo meticulously and tirelessly tried the Mafiosi and bring them down. The whole event was videographed. The two prosecutors are hailed as national heroes today.

the mafia has always been a business and military partner of the CIA for decades until the 1990s so.. you know... the problem is that people abroad have a quite superficial and naive view of what the mafia is... you think it is a local criminal gang killing people here, while it is really an organized business and military arm with trillions of cash at their disposal infiltrated in every political, judiciary, military, masonic and secret service organization around the world, maintaining order on behalf of many nations' secret services. Mafia has done the dirty job of the CIA in several occasions, for instance. This is what mafia is... better to grow up and face the truth. The mafia commands the "special forces", that is the whole point.

One issue is the existence of tax havens around the world. These should be ended completely. They are not only in small countries like Cyprus, Grand Cayman, etc., but also advanced countries like the US and UK. One reason the price of real estate in cities like New York and London is so high is that money from organized crime or looted from developing countries is used to buy it up. If you show up in a bank to open a bank account in the US with $3,000 in cash, the bank has to report it. If you buy a beachfront property in Palm Beach, a Park Avenue penthouse, or a flat in Kensington, there are essentially no obligations to report the source of the funds used.

Government and mafia are synonymous. Last week the entire parliament delivered a law that puts a deadline to all the trials in tribunals. If a trial lasts more than couple of years then the trial falls and the defendants won’t be judged and victims won’t see any justice! The Mr Gratteri criticised this law and all the mass media don’t say a word.

ah shut up

Heroes !!!! Salutes from Brazil. Brazil has the same problem, unfortunately here there will be no solution anytime soon.

When I was a little kid I was enchanted by the glamour of the mafia. Nowadays, I understand how stupid I was.

[@queeng508]

it would be great to also have a followup or spinoff video on the maxi process itself, even tho i understand how difficult that would be to produce, to understand and to explain to not informed viewers

[@antifazisbonifaz6964]

A very very very good point 🙂🎯👌👌that would be following the history to the end. The right thing to do 👍👍👍

[@StephiSensei26]

Madonna mia! Such brutality must be thwarted. Bravo Nicola Gratteri for your diligence and honor.

Once again we are indebted to Deutsche Welle funded by the German tax system for their superb reporting and filming tackling some of the most difficult issues facing humanity today. Respect!!

Ainda bem que existe pessoas como este homem que investigou é conseguiu dar um início numa questão tão importante. Que Deus o proteja.

Durante tudo isso fiquei pensando no Rio, e sobre como seria bom se houvessem juízes e promotores assim lá também.

I visited my aunt in that area twice. Beautiful region, I didn’t know how bad is the ‘ndragueta Problem there.

[@giuseppemilana6220]

Great Doc unfortunately is not saying that the government is not helping that much Gratteri. Like Giovanni Falcone in the past same story!

[@nanibhagat]

I love DW Documentary

[@ernest7420]

I thought we had crime problems in Southern Africa but this is on another level.

[@MobstersInc]

Great documentary 💯 🍿

[@deviscoli]

This never stops .Italy’s economy is survived by drug money. It’s huge huge money .

[@cards4kidz360]

Thankfully we have people like Gratteri in Italy!

[@SASocolovsky]

DW's addictive.

The Italian TV-series "La Piovra" was really really good. This drama shows the cruelty, psycological terror and hopelessness that comes with the Italian maffia. There is no other option then figthing these maffia until the very end.

[@marianasalles242]
