well, its for sure that those who followed Lucky Luciano, brought the whole thing down.
as far as him being a rat.. I never heard that one before.
Bin, they are referring to the time Luciano got busted and gave up the location of a drug stash in return for his freedom.
That's pretty iffy because no one got taken down for that.
Was Luciano a type of informant in the sense that he was probably OSS (CIA) connected? I think yes. But not the type of informant like these guys in here usually talk about.
