Salvatore Gravano never goes on about the rest of the people he sent to prison for the rest of their lives. He always makes it sound like the only person be put in prison was John Gotti what about all the other guys he ratted on? He always tries to justify being a rat. He is full of shit. Gravano presents himself as a stand up honorable guy. But he is not. There have been many LCN guys who have turned rat in the past four decades (primarily since the early 1980s with the advent of the Rico laws). And admittedly, there have ALWAYS been certain guys who ratted undercover (Lombardozzi, Scarpa, etc), dating back many decades to the 50s, 40s, and earlier. But they were a distinct rarity compared to the huge volume of wiseguys out there operating.
But even today, the VAST majority of Italian American LCN made men and associates, stood up. The overwhelming majority of present day made guys and associates are not rats. In my book they are stand up guys. Not Salvatore the rat Gravano.
