Quitoni and Julio García, who were very good friends, started the Puerto Rican mafia to reportedly bring their family out of poverty.
The Puerto Rican mafia started buying boats near the Port of San Juan.
He resolved all issues between capos and castas within the family, and he ultimately developed and approved large business deals.
They were known as small bosses who commanded their portion of the mafia in different parts of the island and even in the United States.
They were sometimes called by members of the families "chotas", a Spanish word meaning whistle blower (also known in America as a snitch).
They had to find ways to make money for the Family and could become a made man in the Puerto Rican mafia.
Soldiers could be of any nationality, but ultimately only full blooded Puerto Ricans could be made men.
It could simply mean they were officially a Sangero, a member of the family with certain rights and a chance to make more and get better jobs.
The lowest rank were Hombrecitos: These were the men who took the fall for most of the crimes and would also help hide coke and other illegal drugs and stolen merchandise.
His body was never found by police and no evidence pointed to the mafia except rumors that stated that Manny was seen reportedly talking a cop.
The mafia had reportedly had their files destroyed from police records and were soon being called "Los Silencios" because of them being able to get away with most of their crimes.
Quitoni fled the island and moved to Spain where he would stay until the birth of his first grandson Rolando Martinez Williams in March 1997.
They would use the Port of San Juan and buy ships to transport their merchandise to Caribbean islands and other countries.
They supplied drug dealers such as Frank Lucas, Ñetas, Latin Kings, Ismael Zambada Garcia, and Zoe Pound as well as many others.
They reportedly started making $750 million - $1.billion from international drug deals, extortion and loan sharking.
According to reports and testimonies from supposed ex-members of the Sangeros, the family owned several homes and apartments within Puerto Rico, the United States and Spain.
[5][6] The Puerto Rican mafia made a reported total of $10 million from loan sharking, extortion and renting properties.
Carlos Martinez gave a loan of $48,627 to an illegal Colombian immigrant by the name of Javier Alvarez, living in Florida.
Carlos (El Copa) had him kidnapped, brought to Puerto Rico and buried alive somewhere on the island.
He was responsible for several kidnappings and the murder of the Quiñones family in 2007, in which he was sentenced to 5 years in prison due to his close ties with the judge.
Upon his release in 2011, he was stabbed in the Rio Piedras Penitentiary (also known in Puerto Rico as "Oso Blanco").
Quitoni had a Venganza placed for $1 million for whoever killed the man responsible; the inmate was murdered a week after Carlos's death.
Quitoni "El Gran", leader of one of the crime families, he made over $956 million for the mafia from extortion, money laundering, loan sharking, and drug trafficking.
Since Rolando was made El Copa before his grandfather's death in 2013, this would mean he has inherited over $130 million worth of money, property and deals.
After the death of Quitoni's family would inherit a total of $24.6 million which would be split evenly between blood relatives.
In April 2014 the Rosalita, Quitoni's eldest Granddaughter was murder along with an uncle in their home located in Arecibo Puerto Rico.
