By the way, what's the big deal with Senter and Testa never ratting? In my opinion, that doesn't make them better to the slightest degree, it's like with Amuso and Casso: both are basically the same, yet Amuso gets more respect just because he didn't testify. It's as if Casso was a scumbag ONLY because he is a rat, NOT because he is a murderer (I am not referring to you, but there were some people on another blog who reasoned like that).
All true. And I doubt they were ever offered the opportunity, anyway. DeMeo was already dead at that point, and he was their point man.
There's a misconception that anyone can rat. That's bullshit. If you have nothing to trade up---and even if you do, it better be significant---the Feds aren't interested.
