I'm almost certain that the black guys involved in that case, are the only ones who haven't flipped. FOH would know more, but I recall reading that, and that they're still in prison as a result of Strollo's testimony. Anyway, back on topic, hasn't the families, NY specifically had lower ranking associates whom were minorities in the past? Mostly Puerto Ricans and Hispanics at that. And as Pogo said before, just recently we have a case of a mob family using Crip gang members to carry out a hit on another mob guy. There's also the hit on the dude from "Purple Gang", whom was murdered by a black guy, and that case seems to have been very mob connected. So this wouldn't necessarily be a first, as far as this era of Italian Crime Families go. And as said also, he was arrested by members of the Bonanno/Colombo Squad, so they have to have something there that's connecting this guy back to a specific Crime Family.
