About Francesco Matrone
Matrone’s name was synonymous with the “most wanted list” in Italy, with murder charges dating back to 2007 and a history of organized crime activities.
During the 1980s, Matrone served as the right-hand man to Carmine Alfieri, the former godfather of the Nuova Famiglia.

Following the group’s dissolution, he ascended to lead one of the most formidable clans in the Province of Salerno.
His reputation as a ruthless figure was cemented with two life sentences for a double homicide, and his involvement in money laundering schemes through Salerno’s restaurants and bars.
Though the influence of his clan had waned since its peak in the 1990s, Matrone’s dark legacy continued to haunt Italy’s history.
