I've mentioned how one law enforcement official talked about how, even with all the publicity surrounding the NY members that flip, there's far more that don't. He said it "wasn't even close." The NY families have proven their persistence in the face of rats in their ranks, law enforcement, other crime groups, etc. What they have that no other family really does is the recruiting pool to stave off attrition. Chicago only having one made guy flip won't save it from fading away.
