If Decicco was a rat you would think the Castellano murder gets thwarted.
Eh, debatable. Exhibit 1 is Scarpa and all of his nonsense while being a CI. Exhibit 2 is the 84 Commission meeting location being given up. He organized that meeting and is one of the few who could give up the location. Exhibit 3 would be Gus Salfani. He gave reliable information in the past. He made an allegation that he know could have got him killed. I doubt he took it lightly. I’m not saying he certainly was a CI, but I think the odds lean that way.
This may sound dumb, happy to concede if it is, but why couldn't the 84 commission meet have been discovered due either a tail, a phone tap or a wire???
Why does it 'have' to be through a rat.
There's 3 VERY plausible alternatives which are completely ignored.
And when you take the 84 meet out of the equation, what's left that DeCicco was a rat? Salfani?
The informant gave the information to FBI agent Joseph F. O’Brien, who was on the Gambino squad. Unlike the bug in Castellano’s house, there was no need to shade the truth to protect trade secrets. Is it definitive, not at all. For me it does have a ring of truth though.
Good info. Cheers j.
Absolutely, brother. Again, it’s not a sure thing, but this coupled with the Sclafani information is suspect. I’m not aware of sclafani’s information ever being proven wrong and he was getting information straight from the Southern District of NY where his mother in law worked. She was actually indicted in a rico case because of it.
