Basciano is a true gangster and i feel doesnt nearly get enough credit. He was smart and although there were informants wearing wires, Basciano would never say anything incriminating. This is well documented. Massino was a major part of Basciano’s downfall, Cicale cooberated what Massino said and visa versa. Massino is 100% responsible for getting Basciano sent to supermaxx because of that bogus threat against the prosecutor.
