Mafia Show "Payola Creator"After spending many years of research & in person interviews with various figures in & around Organized Crime & Politics that I met through my mother Diana Newlin & her real world Godfather Mafia Boss Vincent "Jimmy Blue Eyes" Alo, I began a journey to tell these stories in Hollywood as a screenwriter on how to expose & fight back against the globalists that not only act like a Mafia but nearly always work with them. Explicit Chinook Realm Religion and crime collide when a gruesome murder rocks the isolated community of Chinook, Montana. Local Deputy Ruth Vogel thought she was answering a routine animal control call, only to find a mangled corpse on the frozen embankment. Her small town is whipped into a frenzy and everyone is quick to point their fingers at a drug-addicted teenager, but Ruth suspects connections to a powerful religious group. Enter Agent Loro, an enigmatic FBI investigator tracking an evangelical cult that may have roots right here in Chinook. Loro and Ruth form a cautious partnership to find the killer—but as the mystery winds through Ruth’s life, her family, and her church, she’ll discover something more sinister than murder is afoot.Binge all episodes of Chinook exclusively and ad-free by joining Wondery+ in the Wondery App, Apple Podcasts or Spotify.
