Wasn't there a post here (or maybe it was somewhere else) that listed where all the wiseguys were serving their federal time? Anybody have it?

The criteria for becoming a U.S. Attorney is far more selective in terms of academic background and performance, partially because the government is competing in a far more competitive employer's market for these lawyers. Also, the lawyers are analyzing and trying far more complicated areas of law, such as the criminal aspects of antitrust law, securities laws, international issues, etc, as well as supervising the legality of FBI, DEA and ATF investigations, rather than determining how many times the uncle abused his niece. That's why a U.S. Attorney position is a common pathway to a litigation department position with a mega-firm.

There are so many brilliant lawyers out there that work w unions, appellate work to name a few wildly disparate types of law.

UTC- are the US Attorneys far better than the ones on the state level?

After reading your posts for 20 years, you seem to possess a shitload of knowledge about lawyers and the justice system in general.

A quick Google search shows that there have been 3500+ murders in Philly in the last ten years, and maybe 1 or 2 mob related. I'm not advocating for these mob guys, but the priorities there seem a little off. Some of these street goons legitimately have 10 or 20 bodies on them but you never hear about it nationally when they get locked up.
In the other cases the shooters tend to be black, so when you hear about it its "gun violence" to the media, not the fault of the person.

It was also recently reported that you are 3 times more likely to be shot and killed in Killadelphia (and Chicongo) than you are in Afghsnistan or Iraq. Die-verity is our strength.

Yes it's a pretty low end legal job, at least on the state level. 9-5 basically, instead of the 80 hour a week shops you're talking about.

You got a lot more headlines if you're the government when you can "take down" a mafia member. They don't care if the murders are over with. Taxpayer dollars would 100% be better off used elsewhere and they know that.

This is "unusual"? It's a routine induction ceremony.

"In the most unusual part of the indictment, prosecutors say Mazzone was caught on tape participating in a 2015 mob initiation ceremony in South Philadelphia in which his brother and four others became made members of the crime family. In the secret session, the initiates were captured pledging to “burn in hell forever if I betray my friends.”
They probably meant that it was unusual to be caught on tape and part of an indictment.
That makes sense.
