Who was the last guy who testified at a mob trial and ended up whacked afterwards? Was it Joe Barboza in 1976? George Yudzevich was whacked in California in 1988 after testifying against the Gambinos and LA families, but the feds aren't sure if it was a Gambino hit, an LA family hit, or a power struggle over a strip club he ran in LA. Big George Yudzevich Hit By contrast, Mr. Yudzevich's testimony at the Brooklyn trial was considered critical in obtaining convictions last December of the Gambino underboss, Joseph Armone, 70 years old, and two co-defendants, Anthony Vitta and Salvatore Migliorisi, both 49, according to Edward A. McDonald, chief of the Organized Crime Strike Force in Brooklyn. 'Kept That Agreement'
Also convicted with them was Joseph N. Gallo, 76, the group's former consiglieri. Mr. Armone, Mr. Gallo and Mr. Vitta were convicted of racketeering conspiracy and other charges. Mr. Migliorisi was convicted of extortion and obstruction.

Wilfred "Willie Boy" Johnson come to mind.
From now on, nothing goes down unless I'm involved. No blackjack no dope deals, no nothing. A nickel bag gets sold in the park, I want in. You guys got fat while everybody starved on the street. Now it's my turn.

Mario Imbesi I thought was killed over drugs He was. But he just happened to be a rat to boot.

Well Nicky Skins whacked himself out….
Now I agree with you PizzaBoy that if an informant were murdered and dumped on the footsteps of 1 Police Plaza with a dead rat shoved in his mouth (pause to think about that Daily News headline) there would be hell to pay. But what if a guy disappears? I mean for all the Feds know he lammed it.

Peter gotti tried to take out gravano, its one of the reasons hes gonna die in prison, and i expect the same result for anybody else dumb enought to try and whack a govt witness. To reiterate PB, damage is already done after they testify, it serves no purpose. Of course you try to kill him before he testifies, but that is impossible as the witness would be under protection of the US Marshalls 24x7 until the trial starts. The purpose of killing rats after the trial is to let them know they can't rat and live like normal afterwards. If a guy can rat and go back to the old neighborhood and live a normal life, then there will be no fear of ratting on the mob anytime a person is arrested.

Through a corrupt FBI agent, named Doug McCane, Anthony Casso had 14-15 government witnesses whacked before trial. I believe the majority of these people were ratting on LCN, not necessarily Casso or the Lucchese family. It was simple: he'd get the names of the rats, and they would be murdered quickly.
The one instance where the rat received a pass, was when Casso gave the name of Peter Savino to Chin Gigante. The Chin didn't act quick enough. Even after Chin was warned, Savino proceeded to wear a wire and obtain damaging recordings.
Ironically, despite having McCane in his pocket, Gaspipe got nailed in the Windows case with Peter Savino doing the most damage. Chin, too.

The feds knew there was a leak. They just didn't know who or where. Plus, both Gas and Vic skipped town right before the big bust went down.
When Casso finally admitted who the leak was after he flipped, his government handlers freaked out and demanded that he never mentioned it again. The feds were ok hearing about Eppolito and Carracappa, but not fellow agents.
Casso, through other members in the Lucchese family also had two Suffolk County cops on his payroll.
