That was another of Pistone's exageration Bronx. Besides supposedly taking down the Pizza Connection, he claims that he took down the Commission case too. It was Scarpa who provided that info to the Feds. And please don't get me started on the 250 people that his case supposedly took down.
The info for the Commission Case came from wiretaps. The photos were icing on the cake, but it was the wiretaps at the Palma Boys, Castellano's house, and the Jag that took them down. The permission for the wiretaps came from bugging other mobsters and informants. No one person was responsible for the Commission Case.
