Ketty Gabriele (born 10 July 1981 in Naples)[1] is a reputed Italian mafia figure.
Gabriele, a femminiello and member of the Camorra, was reported as the first transgender mafia figure following an arrest by Naples police in February 2009.
[2][3] According to authorities, Gabriele is a small-time capo behind a drug and prostitution ring for the Scissionisti di Secondigliano.
He wanted to extend his activities traveling the up and down Italy, supplying large- and small-scale dealers, and left her to run things at Scampia.
[5] Gabriele fits in an old and long tradition of gay or femminiello (effeminate) culture in Naples.
