I don't think Valachi was in danger, but instead became paranoid. If Genovese was going to kill him it there would have been no warning, and that kiss of death story was made up by an FBI agent in all likelihood.

Same for D'Arco, if they wanted him dead he was not leaving that room.


Barone ratting because he was shelved in his 80's--I mean, he had to have made a ton of money, to rat over that? He made a few crazy claims on the stands, like saying famous musical was based on his life.
