didnt it cost the government 80 million dollars to get john gotti? or was he exaggerating on the prisons tape?
I read in that Capeci book about Gotti it was like $30 or $50 million, that includes round the clock surveillance by bunch of agents (over 30 at one point), all the trials, money for informants, witness protection, relocation, etc.
