Vito RizzutoThe notorious chief of the Montreal mafia family Vito Rizzuto, who is currently being investigated by the Charbonneau Commission, will be set free within two weeks from the United States Federal Bureau of Prisons. It was announced on Tuesday that 66-years-old Rizzuto has legitimately spend his prison sentence of 10-year with no trouble. He was charged for fraud and illegal activities in a medium-security prison in Florence, Colo. The prisons bureau has announced the date of Rizzuto’s release to be the 6th of October.

Rizzuto was first arrested in Canada in 2004 and extradited later to the United States two years after. Rizzuto was charged to have played a key role in the murder of three Bonnano crime family members in New York City in 1981. The three family members of Bonnano family were Dominick Trinchera, Philip Giaccone and Alphonse Indelicato. Rizzuto confessed to the courts that he was present at the scene in 1982. He was fined $250,000 because he pleaded guilty for conspiring to commit murder.

According to the mafia experts studying Rizzuto’s case, he will be tremendously surprised to see that things have changed completely since he left Montreal last time. Rizzuto’s sone, Nicolo Jr., was killed in 2009. A year later in 2010, his father Nicolo was killed too. His brother-in-law, Paolo Renda, is still reported as kidnapped.

It is being discussed that perhaps if Rizzuto returns to Canada, he might be extradited back to Italy, where he is charged with several crimes including money laundering from crime proceeds of the time.
