🍷 Have you tried my wine yet?: https://yt.franzesewine.com/ 💪🏼 Join Franzese Family: https://michaelfranzese.com/family/ Everybody’s been asking me one question: “Michael, what would the mob have done with Jeffrey Epstein?” This could be a one‑sentence video – he wouldn’t have lasted – but today I’m going to walk you through exactly how that life would really look at a guy like Epstein. I explain the code we had about women and kids, why certain behavior was absolutely beyond the line, and why men like my father, Joe Colombo, John Gotti and many others would have seen him as someone who had to be dealt with. I also talk about the other side of the life: the guys who might see a “money guy,” put him under their control, shake him down for millions – and still decide he was too dangerous to keep around. If you want to understand the difference between the ugly things we did, the lines we still wouldn’t cross, and how a man like Epstein would really be treated in that world, watch this one all the way through.
