Honestly, I thought that nothing would impress me. But shit, those were some good docs. Great photos as well. Two of those photos of Columbo at the ralleys were with Meir Kahane, who was the founder of the Jewish Defense League and later in life held seats in the Israeli Kenesset. Good stuff!

Anybody notice that they said Franceze was a cooperator in the doc? I know its known that he flipped at one point, but I don't think I have ever heard it said in a documentary.

I think he testified at a Senate hearing on gambling in sports, but I am not sure if he ever took the stand in a court room. The other interesting speculation regarding Franzese is that he bought his way out of the mob. I forgot which law enforcement guy said it, but it could be why he has been left alone and lives out in the open on the west coast. I hope he writes a book when his old man dies called "Murders My Father Told Me". You know his old man has told him some inside stuff.
Best way to catch the smart ones? Get an idiot working for them.

Well notice Franceze never said it himself. He had another doc that came out about 6 months back in which they never mentioned his cooperation. I wonder if he knew that fed was going to out him like that on national tv or if he just assumed they wouldent say anything. Either way, hes probably not happy. Anyways, the next one is about the 80's, looks like Scarfo? Should be interesting, if those two docs are any indication then it looks like this new series brings something new to the table. Looking forward to it.

I wouldent have called him a cooperator if he had just pled out. The fed said he cooperated and got a reduction.

In Pt. 2 Pistone said that Sonny Black told him to go kill Bruno Indelicato. Now I thought Bruno's, being one of gunman who killed Carmine Galante, stock had significantly risen after that and that he could, in effect, do no wrong at that time. So what's the deal with this? Is Pistone getting this mixed up, or was Bruno Indelicato going to be killed after the Galante hit?

The doc says Joey Gallo was captain! Ridiculous!
I agree. They also said Sony Franzese was a captain instead of an underboss. Also Scarfo was never a captain. He was a soldier who was banished to AC after the oregon diner incident. He became consigliere after bruno was killed and phil testa became boss Right on Crush

I think the shooters thought Bruno Indelicato was going to be at that meeting with his father and were going to kill him there. No?
But then Sonny Red brought Frank Lino instead. Wasn't Lino the one who escaped? Then they wanted to kill Bruno because they believed he would try to avenge his fathers murder. At least thats what i read about it.
But i think the plan always was if they hit Sonny Red then Bruno had to go too. Thanks for the clarification. So when did Bruno Indelicato bring Tommy Pitera in then?

Jesus christ fellas. "they called gallo a captain" and "they said sonny franchese was a captain". Cant you guys just enjoy the frigen thing? Has there ever been any proof that Gallo wasn't a captain beyond mere speculation? Furthermore, Franchese was a captain at some point, he didnt start out as underboss straight out of the womb.

Why didn't the FBI let Joe Pistone get made?? They say it's because it "wasn't in Joe's/ the Bureau's best interest but I think that's bullshit. I mean they put a $500,000 contract on Pistone anyway. I think they were scared of the Bonannos/ the Commission.

I dont know. The story that they had planned about what they were going to do with Bruno was suspicious. They were just going to snatch him up and stage a hit? How were they going to just snatch him up without anything happening? What were they going to do? Send Bruno to Gitmo?

I think they were scared of the Bonannos/ the Commission. I think that because in order for him to have been made he'd have had to kill Indelicato or someone else. If I'm not mistaken, wasn't it discussed at one time that Pistone should take part in the murder of Sonny Red and the other two capos?
