Hey, dudes. What is interesting is the text message I reprint on my blog that shows the former detective's message, saying basically "Roy was given a deal." He's not Ruffels, and I don't want to name him because he gave the info up not knowing it was for publication. I'd love to name him but I owe him that. And I tried to contact him many times via phone and email and he has blown me off...

Joe Massino. Sammy Gravano. Gaspipe Caso. Crazy Phil Leonnetti -- who'd ever have thought they'd flip (not to mention Scarpa and Whitey Bulger)...
