I fell in love with this story. I was in High School. Me and a buddy went to see the movie in 1997. I read the book and going into college that following year my major was criminal justice lol. I have always wanted to work for the FEDS but life takes a different turn for u

These documentaries are pure class, from the research and fact-finding, to the theme music and excellent narration, they are absolutely faultless. I really am grateful to whoever arranged these programmes as they are the very epitome of what a KZbin documentary should be, and are no doubt enjoyed by people in every country across the world. The second-rate cash-ins and AI codswallop that are polluting KZbin currently will vanish into obscurity, but these wonderful BD docs will still be enjoyed 50, 100 years from now, when AI will perhaps be starting to catch up.

Dude. You think mafia guys are-or were-so stupid as to murder an FBI agent? Let’s be honest here. Logging and mining are far more dangerous occupations than law enforcement at all levels. A cop was ambushed, shot and killed not far from here last year by some crazed meth tweeker. Tragic? Absolutely. The young trooper left behind a wife and children. But it was national news, his funeral attended by governors, senators, thousands of cops. Today, the intentional killing of a cop is rare. It’s not 1929 Chicago, or 1875 in Tombstone. Let’s be honest.

Actually, Joe Pistone didn't even get a salary increase or a higher position at the FBI. When everything ended, he went back to the same position and same salary. Joe put his life on the line for six years, his wife divorced him, and to a degree, looking at it from Agent Pistone's level it was a thankless assignment.

I still wonder how Pistone fooled all these street guys. Why wouldn't they want to know EXACTLY where he grew up (what house or tenement, who his siblings were) details like that. Just seems like you wouldn't let someone anywhere near that life just because of the business side of it or because he's a chill dude.

No one can say that Sonny Black wasn't dedicated to the life that he chose to live. He followed that path right into that final meeting that he knew, without a shadow of a doubt was going to lead to his death. You have to respect that. Even if he was a criminal, and most certainly a murderer. The man walked willingly to his death for what he believed in.

When you think about it, it's actually insane that this guy went undercover in a Mafia organisation. A time when they were at their peak and insanely ruthless. I wouldn't even want to make eye contact with one, let alone infiltrate them as an undercover cop. What they did to people who owed a little bit of dough was bad enough. Imagine them finding a cop.

That was their protection though. They lived openly and in the public eye, anybody killing them would be taking a tremendous risk as they were so well known there would have been lots of witnesses around, people knew who they were, so getting them without anyone noticing would have very difficult. The mafia took such a battering with high profile cases and with use of the Rico laws, they had to go underground to survive. Would have been a lot of heat and exposure if such famous high profile mob guts like Henry or Pistone got whacked. Especially Joe Pistone as he was an agent and not some gangster, the FBI and all the relevant law enforcement agencies would have gone after the killers in a big way. Much safer for them to let it go, after all it's stuff from 40 years ago, like in Henry Hills case, as he said, everybody was dead or in jail, so who really cares that much about it nowadays, 40 years later? Who wants to take the risk of a life sentence to take revenge on guys that put people away ( who are now dead) 40 years ago? Just not worth it, better to stay low key and under the radar, the mob learned it's lesson after John Gotti went public and look where that got him

They literally didn't come back stronger. In fact, foreign mobsters have taken over. You literally have no idea what you're talking about. Beyond that, knowing the exact structure and chain of command was invaluable. Virtually thr entire syndicate in New York is gone thanks to the work Pistone did.

@@Tank4Life Please look up Joseph Messino. He took over as Boss after the Pistons case. I’m not going to get into a back and forth with you; but you really need to do some research. Oh; did you know the the brother of Chin Gigante still gets paid six figures for doing a Longshoreman’s job that only exist on paper. Not bad for an organization with power.

We laud soldiers for a moment of extreme heroism. Where uncommon valor was common. Here is a guy that walked into the lions den for six years. He wasn't a two bit FBI guy raiding a pastors house or an ATF guy executing an airport executive. But a real man going up against real criminals. There's going to be some that disagree with my assessment of today's G-men. That's too bad. They destroyed their integrity themselves. I would've been proud of Joe Pistones FBI.

The strange thing about interviews with Joe Pistone, whom I don't doubt at all, is that the stories he tells in his interviews are different from the way he tells them in his book. Maybe he can talk more accurately after so many years.
@rickjames8317
@rickjames8317 6 ай бұрын
Perhaps. Maybe he admits to, omits, or makes up details that suit the story that he's telling at the moment. In his line of work, he had to be a professional liar. I think that it's hard to discern the line between fact and fiction with anyone who participated in what he did.

Great stuff. Joe Pistone is a braver man than I’ll ever be. His infiltration of the Bonannos was a blessing in disguise for the family. While the other 4 family bosses went on the commission trial; the Bonannos went under the radar during the mid to late 80s because they were in such disarray and the Feds were busy chasing Gotti so by the early 90s they were back better than ever

15 years with the FBI,,,, 7 months to prepare....for a six-year-long operation... and Joe Pitstone would have had to have been 18 to even apply to the FBI to start with.... and this happened in the 80s.... So Joe had to have been a min of 34 years old at the start and 40 years old by the end.... 40 years ago... meaning he is now at least 80 years old... So to conclude.... That is not Joe Pitstone, who was given a new identity and had to live in hiding because there has been a price on his head ever since.
