Cosa Nostra has been sending people to the US to form alliances with old friends and rebuild its networks, according to an Italian parliamentary report. It says that the mob still has a good hold in the drugs trade and is also moving into new areas like online gambling. "The commission says it has evidence Cosa Nostra is sending its top members to New York while allowing those expelled by the mob during the clan wars of the 1980s to return home to Sicily."
This seems to be moving along more successfully than the anti-maffia commission would hope because witnesses are feeling under-protected and abandoned, so fewer are coming forward.
