Matteo Denaro Has Been on the Lam for 30 Years
There is no doubt that Matteo Denaro, the mob boss, has committed some crimes. He is sought after in relation to more than 50 killings, in addition to drug trafficking, bombings, and extortion. Law enforcement has been keeping an eye on him for years. So what ultimately happened to him? Nobody is aware. Since June 1993, Denaro has been missing. Law enforcement hasn't been able to catch up with him in 30 years. This despite his boasts of having enough victims to fill a cemetery, one of whom was the 11-year-old son of a rival crime lord.
When Dutch police mistaken a hapless Formula 1 racing fan in 2021 for Denaro, who is still one of Europe's most sought criminals and the top criminal in Italy after all these years, they blindfolded him and took him away. When it was discovered that the fan was only a man who somewhat resembled Denaro, he was later freed.
