Here's a question, just for laughs: If DiFronzio is indeed a "snitch," as some people suggest, what/whom do you think he's snitching on?
I don't think it would be the South Side crew. There simply are not enough arrests to warrant such a conclusion IMO.
I think--if he is, which is a big, big *if*--it would be on other organized crime: the Eastern Europeans, and probably particularly on the Middle Eastern operations that are potentially raising money for terrorist organizations.
That being said, I doubt he's a snitch. And the Outfit is so diminshed that he might not even really hear all that much about the above these days. Twenty years ago? He probably knew every thing that went down in the Chicago underworld. These days? Probably not.
Good point, but is there anyone worth ratting on? Anyone powerful enough or violent enough to rat on?
Have there been any big busts in the last twenty years that he could have been an informant on? Sarno? Family Secrets? I don't think there is.
Would DiFronzo have known that Zizzo was going to disappear? Would he have approved it?
