On Des Moines' south side, the Bordenaro cousins are waging a nasty war over alleged fraud, harassment — and pizza


Not long after Rick “Anthony” Bordenaro was released from a Tennessee prison in 2014, his cousin Chris Bordenaro put him up in his Des Moines home.

But these days, the two south-side Italians who are just three years apart in age are waging a nasty war against each other.

A woman that both men dated was arrested for allegedly sending pornographic images to Anthony's son; Chris accused Anthony of swindling him and several other businesses; Anthony's 30-foot boat was set ablaze last month; and each man claims the other is trying to wreck their individual pizza businesses.
