Didn't that convict Connelly drop those bugs? Sneaky sneaky.


No, you should read the book, it's great. The FBI put a team together and they made repeated attempts in the middle of the night, with the help of a locksmith, to gain entry and put the bugs in place. They had to contend with look outs, residents, delivery trucks, etc. They picked a freezing cold night when street traffic would be low and finally got in after 2 failed attempts.

The first time they almost %^$# their pants as when they got to the door they heard voices. It turns out a radio and TV were left on 24/7, lol...

Connolly was on the team that listened to tapes, etc and they got the floor plan from Stephen "the riffleman" flemmi, Whitey's sidekick...
