Extreme Associates and the Mob
2003-08-09 21:37:30

I wonder if the Justice Department will prosecute Rob Black's Extreme Associates under RICO statutes, which are primarily used to investigate organized crime.

The Mafia has been tightening up on its porn connections over the past six months and several people, mainly out of New York, have been murdered.

One person with ties to pornographers was murdered in Chatsworth within the past month. The murder was connected to porn.

As setgo.com reported December 24, 2002:

Extreme Associates has gotten itself into big trouble. They robbed duplicator Vinnie DeStefano for $66,000 by not paying their bill. These Gambinos came from New York to collect the money from Rob Black. Rob Black told them that Pete Milano, the Mafia boss of Los Angeles, told him he could do it. So the Gambinos went back to Rochester and collected from Rob's Dad, Dominic Zicari, instead. Rob might get hurt. The FBI have already warned him.

Black also put Louie Peraino out of business by not paying him.

During one of Extreme's wrestling gigs, Pete Milano brought water to Rob Black. Pete and his sons hang around the porn business.

We defend our content to the end, but we're not careless enough to put things in the realm of being judged by seriously conservative people.

It would not bother me one bit to see Rob in jail for some of the criminal things he has done in the past, but not for something to do with Free Speech.

Extreme was incredibly careless when they taunted the government to go after them. This will be a very difficult time for them.

I haven't yet inquired as to why, although based on everything I'm reading here at ADT, I suspect it's due to the poor quality of the Extreme DVDs. It has only been within a month or so that a large number of Extreme titles showed up at xrentdvd. I never rented any of them since I'd seen almost all of the titles back when they were released on VHS and wasn't interested in seeing them again.
