[edit] Sicilian mafiosi
I removed the Category Sicilian mafiosi. Sabini has no importance whatsoever in the Sicilian Mafia, he is a British criminal. - Mafia Expert 11:54, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Dispute Accuracy
Charles and Darby Sabini were two separate people (Charles was the elder brother of Darby)--research by James Morton or his researchers demonstrated that. The Sabini power had waned by the effective internment of Darby in 1940 (IIRC), certainly it dind't fade 'following WWII', it simply disappeared. The Whites from Kings Cross took over much of the empire. The MEssina brothers were basically pimps, while the Sabinis were extortonists, but made most of their money from controlling the racetracks, so the Messinas didn't overtake the Sabinis' businesses. Edward Hart's 'Britain's Godfather' is the classic text, though written by a tabloid journalist and not sourced at all, so as full of rumour as fact.VaughanAllen 18:35, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
