No Bail for Ex-Cops Accused of Mafia Ties
They seem to have been especially well-placed: "Caracappa, who helped found the NYPD's Organized Crime Homicide Unit, was the gatekeeper for information about Mafia killings investigated by the department's Major Case Squad. Prosecutors allege the detectives targeted four other mobsters on Casso's orders, and used their access to police information to give mob associates the names of three confidential informants who were later slain."
Casso. That would be Lucchese family underboss Anthony "Gaspipe" Casso. As I recall the nickname was for his youthful specialty of installing phony gas meters, and he hated the name...
Politics
The worst.
