I still feel it's better than WAY OF THE WISEGUY, DC. That book was a total rehash.

Is it me or is Pistone's ego actually getting bigger as he gets older ?

Funny how he ducks the topic of his dear friend Lin DeVecchio, the agent accused of tipping off Greg Scarpa, leading to several murders. It's mentioned in the preface but not in great detail. Just, of course, that he's innocent.
What'd you expect ?

A dirty cop is no better than a rat wiseguy. If you're gonna be a cop, be a cop.

Sorry for the rant, it's a pet peeve of mine.
