New York got rid of the death penalty in 2004. Never understood why Massino flipped over that when the last NY state execution was 40 years earlier.
Because he was 60 y old at the time and dosn't have the balls for spent what remain of his life in a supermax prison.
The feds still have the death penalty.

The federal "justice" system isn't constrained by the state that the prosecution takes place in. Federal prosecutors sought the death penalty for Massino in the Sciascia murder and they also did with Basciano. If I'm not mistaken they said that they would pursue it in the Zottola case if they get a conviction.
NEGATIVE! If the feds were going to seek the death penalty they have to do so before the trial not afterwards. There is a litany of things that are then put in place if it becomes a death penalty trial. The defendant gets up to three (3) lawyers for his defense. And one has to be an attorney who specializes in death penalty cases. So facit accompli! No death for you!
What would happen if Zottola tries to appeal?

How so? Yes we are, but not sure which weird aspect you're referring to.

Massino was being prosecuted by the feds not the state of ny

Gotcha. Even then only 16 federal executions in the last 60 years and 13 were under Trump. Nothing more than a scare tactic that obviously worked against him.

well Vinny Basciano was tight with the father. He can now put a hit on the son in the can with his connections there.

I've never read of someone in my life trying so hard to get their own family members killed. I can't imagine any lawyer or anybody feeling any type of loyalty to this guy. I mean it's not like his father was doing anything so egregious we heard about it.

Because he was 60 y old and doesnt want to spent the rest of his life in a supermax prison,wasnt the first mibsters that with the excuse of be old and dont want to die in prison prefered to flip like Lonardo in Cleveland or Porter in Pittsburgh.
