Remember the movie Godfather that was
based on a novel by the same name? And the character itself “Godfather”,
was a highly iconic character. But do not limit your brains to the
prospect of Godfathers only. Yes! there exist Godmothers as well. Women
with knuckles of steel that can apparently beat the hell out of you. We
are talking about real life and not movie life female mob bosses and
gangsters, women that most men would die at the sight off and no, not
because they are drop dead gorgeous but just because they are that
harmful and ruthless. Read below to find out the ten women who are still considered some of the most terrifying females in the world.
10. BONNIE PARKER
In between the years 1931 to 1934, a
couple by the name Bonnie and Clyde became very famous as outlaws. They
committed crimes in the United States. It is rumored that Bonnie fell in
love with Clyde on sight and then joined his gang on the road. They
made headlines all over the country and stayed on the wanted list for a
long time. Bonnie was an accomplice to everything that Clyde did but
they were known for their politeness. Well it’s not unusual to find a
few decent gangsters now is it.
9. JUDY MORAN
The Moran family is an organization in
Melbourne, Australia which can turn the otherwise peaceful city into
dodge city. The most impressive thing about his feared family is the
person who holds the reign. Judy Moran is the stealthy yet stubborn
female mob boss. She is 66 years old and is considered as the family
matriarch because of the varied types of responsibilities that she has.
She is known to bake cookies for her boys when they come back from a day
of “errands” and despite that soft corner, she will rip the ears off
anyone who crosses her way. She certainly looks like that!
8. JULIE LUCAS
Coming back to gangster women who did it
for love, we have Julie Lucas. Being the home-coming queen she fell in
love with home-coming king and then later married him. The king being
Frank Lucas who had turned the city of North Carolina from Harlem to a
heroine haven. From their various acts they had gathered enough loot to
live a lavish lifestyle that included Mercs and Diamonds. Julie’s
loyalty to her husband and his business was proven when she spent five
years in prison for it. She was caught again in 2010 when she tried
selling cocaine to an informant. Well like they say, old habits
die-hard.
7. XIE CAIPING
The city of China named Chongqing
recently made a crackdown attack on all of the operating dark business
and arrested more than 1500 suspects. The jewel in that case was the
capture of Caiping. She has been known to be the leader of around 16 man
ho’s strong and owned a large string of illegal casinos. Her job was to
beat up cops and to bribe city officials plus what ever else it took to
keep the cops off of her casino’s and their illegal activities. How
good she was at her job is justified with the fact that the criminal
round-up included her brother-in-law who was actually an official cop.
No wonder she had strong connections.
6. HELEN GILLIS
She is basically famous for being a part
of the “Baby Faced Nelson” gang. It is a well-known fact that she was
completely loyal to the man that she had married and therefore
participated in everything that he did which included bank robberies and
crime all over the country. They became part of the Dillinger gang in
1934 and in the spring of the same year FBI agents flagged them to
Wisconsin. There was a shoot out which killed Baby Faced Nelson, he died
in his wife’s arms. After her husband’s death she no longer continued
and handed herself in.
5. SANDRA BELTRAN
If you take one look at her mug shot and
then contemplate that with the fact that she was known as the “Queen of
the Pacific” you will not be able to help but imagine her with a
pirates cap on her head and a skull on a dagger in the other. Well due
to no fault of her own what so ever because she was born and raised this
way. She was trained to be a Mexican Godmother (wouldn’t have been that
terrifying if it were Hawaiian Godmother or Barbadian Godmother but oh
well) and to top it all her uncle was considered the person on top of
the ring of the Mexican drug dealers. She also helped others in
developing and coming up with smuggling routes over the pacific coast of
Mexico.
4. ROSETTA CUTULO
She is in this list mainly because she
is the sister of Raffaele Cutolo, the mob boss of NCO (Nuova Camorra
Organizzata) which was (in 1980′s) considered to be the biggest and most
powerful crime family in Italy. She took over the business when her
brother got caught and cuffed. While he served in prison, she not only
followed orders from him but also made her own deals with the likes of
mobsters from South America and Sicily.
3. MARIA LICCIARDI
She was the boss of the bosses of the
Naples underworld and came to reign after two of her brothers along with
her husband were arrested. Under her rule the family business became
more lucrative and organized. From 1993 to 2001 she was the head of the
Licciardi clan and introducing prostitution into Camorra was perhaps her
mainstream contribution.
2. MARIA LEON
At the sweet little age of 44 she is the
mother to 13 kids. And like all good mothers, in between nap times and
changing diapers she single-handedly became the owner and controller of a
trans-US-Mexican drug trafficking and human smuggling operation. Now if
we are not sadly misinformed, that is not the type of business that
allows one to take maternity leaves. Given that, Miss Maria seems to
have accomplished quite a lot for herself to say the least.
1. GRISELDA BLANCO
Ok this one makes the first position on
this list because she began her sorry ass career at the age of 11 when
she kidnapped and took for ransom a kid from a wealthy family. And that
is not all, she shot the kid when the family did not pay the ransom.
Talk about being heartless you freak! She moved to Columbia in the 70′s
after which she started her own drug business and later moved to Miami
in fear of being indicted. She dreamed of turning Miami into the Cocaine
capital of the US in spite of which she master minded around 200
murders. The three dead husbands of hers are touted to be a part of the
whole figure of murders to her name. So when crime fighters touted her
as being a “Sociopath” and “Ruthless” we just took them to be short
terms for the statement “She is a crazy bitch”!
