			== Family ==

			Petrescu had a son, [[Valeriu Petrescu]], who served under the Bucharest Butchers. In June 2024, [[Marku Ionuț]] sent Valeriu to [[Hollywood]], [[Los Angeles]], with orders to kill [[Petru Ionuț]] and abduct [[Silvia Wilson]]. The order followed Petru's break with the organization and Marku's earlier contact with Wilson during a visit to Hollywood.

			The ambush took place inside Petru's penthouse above his Hollywood casino. Valeriu fought Petru inside the penthouse, but Wilson struck him in the head with a bottle and stunned him. Petru then overpowered him and killed him by repeatedly punching him.

During the internal crisis of 2024, Petrescu remained loyal to [[Marku Ionuț]]. After Valeriu's death in Hollywood, Marku promised Petrescu revenge against [[Petru Ionuț]]. In reality, Marku was angered by his failure to take control of Petru's California operation. Petrescu supported Marku’s attempts to strengthen his position inside the [[Bucharest Butchers]] and continued to run the field side of [[Porno Bucharest]] while the wider organization was becoming less stable.

	After the collapse of the [[Tanoa Einsatzgruppen]] in late 2024, pressure on the Bucharest Butchers increased. Petrescu responded by moving archive material, limiting movement between sites, and tightening control over remaining personnel.

Dorin Petrescu was born on 19 November 1975 in [[Bucharest]], Romania. He was described in police files as physically disciplined, socially withdrawn, and prone to violent behavior from a young age.

During his military career he completed officer training and advanced steadily through the ranks. He was promoted to lieutenant in 1998, captain in 2003, and major in 2008.

	~~== Rise within Porno Bucharest ==~~

	~~Petrescu’s rise inside the department was based on discipline, reliability, and his ability to carry out sensitive orders without argument.~~

	In 2010, he entered the department as an outside recruit and trainer. This was unusual inside the Bucharest Butchers, where senior trust was usually reserved for people tied to the Ionuț family or long-standing internal circles.

	~~In 2011, after he reorganized the transport teams and reduced losses during movements between sites, he was given control of the enforcement and escort crews attached to the department.~~

	In 2013, he was promoted to chief field commander of Porno Bucharest. From that point, most large operations were carried out under his supervision. Marku increasingly relied on him for actions involving multiple teams, secured properties, and the movement of victims or sensitive material.

	In 2016, after the department expanded its activities outside central Bucharest, Petrescu was given broader authority over safe houses and recording locations in [[Ilfov County]] and along routes linked to [[Giurgiu]]. This made him the practical head of daily operations.

	By 2021, he had direct access to Marku Ionuț and took part in decisions involving internal discipline, destruction of evidence, and the handling of members seen as security risks. By 2024, he was effectively the second most important figure in Porno Bucharest after Marku.
