Griffith mayor John Dal Broi
Griffith mayor John Dal Broi says the political influence of the Griffith Mafia is “hard to quantify” and will only ever be known to the people involved.
It comes as a joint Fairfax Media-Four Corners investigation revealed “loopholes” for Mafia integration in political donations.
Cr Dal Broi said it was important not to shy away from Griffith’s notorious connection to Mafia history.
“But it is really hard to know what extent the (Griffith) Mafia had an influence on political affairs,” he said.
