Fake

Yet another article on organized crime in St. Louis that is fake and made up. There are a few names of former St. Louis gangsters that are real, the rest is made up. I have no idea who is writing these false articles on St. Louis organized crime figures but this person needs to grow up. All the information in this article is either inaccurate or fake.

Again, This Is Fake

I guess no one cares that this article is fake. It's all made up. I can't believe a completely fake article could stay up on any credible website for this long. Yes, the names are of real gangsters but all the information herein is completely fictitious. The sources listed do not contain information that is in this article because the author of this article made it all up.

Someone made up a fake article on real people, who are all mostly dead now by the way, and then added a list of sources that do not contain anything the information in this article. (By the way, to the person who made up this fake article, Jimmy Giammanco died in 1985, not 1992! He died in St. Louis, not Detroit! And he is buried in Calvary Cemetery in St. Louis, not Detroit!)

There are about a half-dozen articles on deceased St. Louis Mafia figures that consists of all made up information about that particular individual.

I am almost certain that I know who made up this article and the others I just mentioned. This is the same person who made up a fake chart on the St. Louis Family, including some real names and some names he made up, and passed it on as an accurate chart on the current St. Louis Mafia, which, by the way, doesn't even exist anymore!

If this is who I think this is and you are reading this, grow up! You are a joke on the other site. Everybody over there who has researched St. Louis know you are a B.S. artist about what you claim to know on the St. Louis Mafia (from inside information--yeah, right!). That's why you hardly ever post there anymore because you have read on there what some have pointed out about your charts and you are afraid of being directly called out on it. I'll do it right here: You are a fraud! Lock & Key (talk) 03:35, 23 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, would love to start some commentary on the subject

I have seen a site that had a mafia chart of the St. Louis family, and am not sure if it is all accurate. The thing is, I have looked up a lot of the people on various sites, and have found information on these people. Some of these individuals have several addresses that are fake, i.e. nothing is there, as if they made them up themselves for the deceit of law enforcement. Also, some of these individuals have a lot of action on court websites, i.e. long rap sheets. I want to know who this individual is that is posting these things, do you live around or eat at in "The Hill" in St. Louis?
