These guys are looking at 15 years on plea deals maybe more.

Even the hardest of hard start thinking when they throw 15 years in their face
And/or tell us what we want to hear we'll let you go tonight and you will get time served.

I think they want Merlino more than any other wiseguy right now.

The only way to get him is get one of these guys to tell on the guys in his inner circle and so forth

That's how that story goes

Keep going up the food chain until you find someone that you can squeeze for whatever the reason is.

Its dangerous to be friends with Merlino right now
Because they are looking to squeeze you to get to him.

Legit guys and all

Gotti they started with a guy that cleaned the raven night club.

Massino they started with a guy that owned parking lots that was a hanger on
He didn't file taxes and they threw 10 years at him so he flipped
