ALL over his jealousy & his 2 counsel partners sleeping with his girlfriend. Had she refused the advances he maybe would've kept quiet. They lasting 6 should have kept money on his books, & psid his attorney's & looked out for his kids, mom etc. If he felt any loyalty he wouldn't have talked. THEY said f&%$ him since he got life

[@marcmacdonald5605]

Tito wasn't part of the counsel

[@blueoak5262]

He should've put that money into real estate, stashed it somewhere instead of buying fancy jewelry, cars and clothes. And taunting feds with an "untouchable" or "teflon" moniker is never the right thing, because they won't rest until they have you. Gotti was called Teflon but in 1992 it came to an end for him.

[@C-Lyfe85]

You really think Nicky Barnes didn't have property & real estate? It was more than just fancy cars and mink coats. The media called him "Mr untouchable". Which was really just a dog whistle, to the feds, to lock his black ass up. They forced him to pose for that picture, they threatned to use one of his "scary" mug shots as an alternative, so he posed. His Reign was short, how long did the FBI allow the Italian mob to reign, decades. The last thing they wanted was a multi-millionaire, possibly black billionaire. Because money is power. You can maneuver much easier, in a racist Society, even if you're black. Money Talks.
