That’s interesting because as recently as 10 years ago, the Feds seemed to think he was still alive. One of Matthews biggest clients was big time Baltimore drug dealer Shorty Buise. Buise died in ‘13 and the Feds made an appearance at the funeral—either hoping to catch Matthews paying his respects, or to get info on his whereabouts. At the time they were still offering reward money for his capture.

Its like when they put the bugs in the nursing home where was living an old detroit wiseguy with alzaimer in the hope that he would say something about where Hoffa's body was.

Seems like the Genovese would have left him dead on the streets to make a point.

And leave all that evidence behind? You make the same point by disappearing the guy.

But in this instance with Mathews disappearing totally even the FBI thought he was in hiding. I mean, the Feds had a bounty on his head for the longest of time. I'm sure the FBI has a pretty good idea one way or the other. Too many snitches, too many mobsters on the federal payroll for them to not really know.
