MANILA, Philippines - It takes a gangster to understand a gangster, and what really goes on in the underworld. For the first time in what is considered to be television’s most intimate and in-depth study of prison gang culture, INSIDE THE GANGSTERS’ CODE goes behind bars and takes viewers on an all-access pass into the previously impenetrable world of notorious syndicates. Join former mafia insider and ex-convict, Lou Ferrante, as he re-enters this hellish world he walked away from a decade ago and taps into his knowledge and inside networks to unravel the secrets and truth about the world's hidden leaders: gangsters whose international reach and power have grown to epic levels. Get INSIDE THE GANGSTERS’ CODE every Thursday at 10:00 p.m., starting March 21. A four-part series, INSIDE THE GANGSTERS’ CODE is an exclusive look at real life hoodlums from across the globe and their paradox of organised crimes - illegal activities that are both hidden and blatant. From Latin America, to the United States and Europe, ex-mafioso boss, Lou, uses his insider smarts to shed new light on a variety of very different gang cultures, delving thoroughly to decode their history, modes of operation, developing webs of power, motivations and political sway – in graphic detail. INSIDE THE GANGSTERS’ CODE begins in El Salvador, home of the second highest homicide rate in the world, where rival gangs, 18th Street and MS-13, are engaged in a bloody war. Will they ever call truce? Then in Poland, home to more than 500 criminal gangs, Lou sets off on a mission to infiltrate the shadowy underworld of The Grypsers. Also known as ‘The Smart Ones,’ they are a notoriously private and secretive prison outfit that forms approximately 70 per cent of the Polish prison population. The big question in Lou’s mind? Do The Grypsers control the Polish Mafia outside prison or does the Polish Mafia control them? Read More. |

There are a few lawyers who can take a case with bad facts and bad law and make it into something special. When you’re looking for that type of lawyer, it can be especially hard to find. Do you evaluate based on educational background? Number of accolades? Do you trust a referral from a friend? One lawyer may have done a good job for your friend, but that is because their situation was much different and the lawyer you need has a different focus. Do you look for a lawyer who is board certified in a particular field? If you are looking for a trusted Waco Local Counsel it is important to see what the people in that locality think of the lawyer’s services. Understanding the nuances of particular judges and local customs is critical in getting heard. There are few ways that it could pay off poorly to find the right lawyer for your case. That’s why it’s a safe bet to find the best people for your job.

He worked as a general haberdasher for 30 years, but was forced to give up the career he loved due to his keen attention to detail. He spent his free time watching golf on TV; and he played uno, badmitton and basketball almost every weekend. He also enjoyed movies and reading during off-season. Hamilton Lindley was always there to help relatives and friends with household projects, coached different sports or whatever else people needed him for.
