People always love to say that rats never get killed, but evidence suggests otherwise. It's rare, but it does happen. Here's a few:
Joseph Barboza - Patriarca - 1976
Frank Lagano - Lucchese - 2007
Mario Riccobene - Bruno - 1993
James Bulger - Winter Hill - 2018
Bonanno rat Joseph D'Amico didn't get killed, but he got his ass kicked in 2016. Any others? These are the ones I can think of right offhand. Joseph Rossi - Gambino informant killed by informant Nicholas "Nicky Skins" Stefanelli after he blamed him for snitching him out February 24th, 2012. The real story is that Stefanelli become a rat for save his son from a lenghty sentence for drug and Rossi was who ratted on Stefanelli son.

I see that list and think of Bulger, who was never going to be killed if they had not put him in a row of cells next to guys who wanted him dead, then left him unattended. I usually never believe in conspiracy theories, but that one looked like a complete set up. From what I read, the weeks and months leading up to Bulger being transferred there, he was being incredibly rude and mean to nurses trying to treat him and then prison guards. So he was being transferred around due to his sudden behavior change. Almost as if he was over it and was ready to but put out of his misery, he had lived long enough and his health was not good. He was warned about his behavior and he kept it up so wardens had no choice but to move him around, so he wound up where he wound up. Nobody is crying over him that’s for sure

Nobody is crying over him that’s for sure Not crying, but come on, many inmates misbehave, worse than what you describe. I hate Bulger, but it seems like a set up. What do you mean they had no choice, they have the entire federal prison system at their disposal. They could have placed him anywhere. They put him near a guy who wanted him dead, they made it known he was there, then left him unguarded with his cell dood unlocked.

I also forgot to mention Charlie Gio 1954 (allegedly gave info to the immigration bureau regarding Ricca's alien status) Alex Louis Greenberg 1955 (gave sensitive information during the Hollywood Extrotion trials)

The list of suspected rats who were killed or people who they feared would cooperate, is likely a longer list than the actual rats who were killed. I personally agree although killing around 15 rats (only the ones who publicly testified or were uncovered for giving out specific info) during a 50/60 years period, its not that bad especially when we speak about the Americanized Italian Mafia.....Chicago killed at least 6 or 7 public rats in a 30 year period or from the 1950s until the 1980s (only God knows how many rats they killed before that) and so if we add the rest of the families, I think they have a good number for such "ancient" secretive organization.

William Morris ("Willie") Bioff was blown up, who were the others?
