Mama mia! An Italian mob boss has put a whole new twist on the meaning of “serving” and “hard time.” Though he’s been in prison for more than two decades, with no rights to conjugal visits, his wife of 20 some years gave birth recently to a baby girl. And it’s his!
The mother, appropriately named Immacolata (meaning “immaculate,” get it? Virgin Mary?), waged a battle with the courts and won the right to her husband’s sperm, batches of which he worked up from behind bars. The two married in 1983 after he had already begun to serve several life sentences, but they have never consummated their eternal love.
She plans to raise the girl far from the Naples-based Camorra crime organization. She doesn’t want the jailed Godfather’s baby daughter to suffer the same fate as his son from a previous marriage – he died in a gangland shooting at 25.
