I would also like to point out that although not depicted in Goodfellas, Tommy DeSimone attempted to rape Karen Hill while Henry was imprisoned. I think it is quite a coincidence that the woman playing Karen (Lorraine Bracco), also played Dr. Jennifer Melfi in The Sopranos, was raped in Season Three.

@Camarel: Yes, Parnell “Stacks” Edwards was African-American. He was portrayed by Samuel L. Jackson.
