Do you think they necessarily care? Seriously, do you think they were regular church goers who will now be upset they’re cut off from the sacraments?

This is an interesting point. It made me think: would any priest even know when a mafia member came up for communion?

I’m sure some would know because some of these mobsters are very well known in their towns. But how many of them bother to ever go to Mass when so few basically decent people in Italy bother to go?
