I think the mob was still very strong and didn't have too many stoolpigeons til gotti became boss and pissed off the feds..Then when the feds started flipping alot of guys..politicians and city cops weren't as eager to be on their payrolls anymore out of fear they might be next !!

We know they still are on the payroll, but not as much !!
