Turns out that the identikit of Mafia boss #matteomessinadenaro (left) was very accurate, and almost identical to his mugshot this morning (right). And yet he managed to hide from the authorities for 30 years. In Sicily. #mafia NBC News

Italian Arma dei Carabinieri found this painting of the Joker hanging on the wall in one of the hideouts of #MatteoMessinaDenaro , the sicilian mafia boss arrested on Monday after 30 years on the run. I guess this time the joke was on him.
