Mafia Don Turns Informant

Mafia Don Turns Informant



No, I don't really want to be a mobster. I just want one of those cool nicknames like "Vinny Gorgeous" (who probably is uglier than the dog faced boy).



Jailed Mafia boss Joseph Massino secretly recorded his successor plotting the assassination of a federal prosecutor, becoming the first head of a New York Mafia family known to have turned government informant, sources familiar with the case said Thursday.



A federal indictment unsealed Thursday, which charges acting Bonanno family head Vincent "Vinny Gorgeous" Basciano with murder in another case, also contends he planned the killing of a top mob prosecutor in meetings with someone described as a "high-ranking member" of his crime family.



Several sources familiar with the investigation identified Massino as the turncoat Mafioso.



The alleged betrayal would rank as one of the most stunning violations of the Mafia code of silence in the history of American organized crime. It also would signal just how deeply the FBI has penetrated a crime family that nearly collapsed in the 1980s after undercover agent Joseph Pistone won its confidences posing as mobster Donnie Brasco...




The writer really should have worked the word "omerta" in just for additional flavor, like that second clove of garlic (properly chopped by razor blade, of course).



Here's the Mob Nickname Generator. I come up as "The Yodeler" which sounds rather rat-like.
