Everyone loves a mafia story. You know the one…
The Godfather, Scarface, Sopranos... the hats, the guns, the suits… But not the people
in Sicily – who’ve lived under the mafia’s thumb for centuries. … It’s such a part of Sicilian life, it’s even mentioned in Sunday prayers… |

AA07 01:45:46:00 There were letters with death threats sent to me and my family. They made holes in the walls of my shop, possibly in order to inject flammable liquid directly into my kitchen. They wrote “Death" on the walls of the shop.” 01:49:04:00 |

to the mafia after it sent him bullets and a coffin. Bit by bit mafia thugs infiltrated the business,
dictating who to employ, even where to buy flour. So at his father's death bed, Alessandro made a vow to break the cycle of extortion. |

But Sicily is a small island and here, honesty comes at
a cost. Mafiosi aren’t strangers – they’re Alessandro’s friends
and neighbours. His evidence has led to the conviction
of 40 people in his area. Now he’s resented for breaking the code of silence and he has to be protected by this man… a police escort. |

One other reason the mafia is so difficult to fight, is
its ability to lure young people with the promise of money. Right now across Italy 30% of youth can’t find jobs. So the mafia’s most powerful recruiting tool is poverty. |
