Mafia Take Down - USA

June 2008
Last Friday one of America's most wanted fugitives, mafia captain Nicholas Corozzo or 'Little Nick' surrendered himself after escaping a massive, pre-dawn arrest of 62 mobsters earlier this February.
By far the biggest catch in the FBI's net was John D'Amico, also know as 'Jackie the Nose;' a Godfather-esque member of the notorious Gambino mob-family. Yet, some view the FBI 'take-down' with suspicion, "To me it seemed like theatrics. I think that their tactics are just as crooked and just as corrupt as the criminals they're arresting," says Laura Garafolo whose father was murdered by hit-man Sammy Gravano, who escaped 19 life sentences by turning witness against the Gambino family. "Some law officials do have this romanticised notion of organised crime -- it's sort of a love-hate relationship" says talk show host Curtis Sliwa, who survived two attempted murders by the mafia.

When the italian mob was in control and you went to them for help they got the job done. Unlike the police now a days who just sit at a desk and eat donuts. The mob went out and eliminated the problem.

This goes to show that the feds are not after justice. All they care about is winning convictions to put on their resume. Which is why they allow killers like Sammy the Bull to go free for giving up their targets. That is a sorry way for the feds to win their case, rather than using good detective work. All they wanted was revenge on John Gotti, not justice. All the feds care about is revenge and winning convictions. They are worse than the Mafia.
