Donnie Brasco was my favorite movie for a long time! As a Girl, I was teased about my 2 favorite movies. The other movie was "Above The Law" Steven Seagal. These were 2 of the best movies ever!

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.
@@craighewes1745Who says he’s in protective custody? I know for a FACT that he’s not hiding from anyone. He’s been back to NY for business and pleasure and doesn’t need any security team on him at all.
An incredible story of bravery and heroism fought along the Mafia corridors of power, using their own weapons...there should be a FBI medal called ' Joe Pistone'..
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.
Joe Pistone, balls of steel. Could have been discovered and killed at any moment but kept going because he believed in the rule of law. The world needs more Joe Pistones.
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.
We need more people infiltrating the government. The government are the biggest mobsters of all time. Unlike the mafia, they investigate themselves. Imagine the mob creating their own internal affairs lol. "Senator, we here at Mob Inc used our own investigative team and concluded that our associates did nothing wrong."
Also, one of the reasons Joe Pistone was able to meld into the mafia as he did, was that he grew up around guys like this. It was natural for him. He was the perfect undercover guy at the right time.
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. Palpitations just thinking about it.

Your life will be remembered in the stories told by great men and women as someone they revered and held in highest esteem.... you have become a legend."

The thing that doesn't make any sense about this is the fact that the FBI didn't arrest Sonny Black when they told him his friend was an FBI agent but yet at 46:49 they arrested Lefty when they saw him saving his life. Very strange to say the least.
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.

Yes, but in the end, Lefty had higher scruples - refusing to betray his friends/associates. THINK ABOUT THAT!!

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

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.

Moral of the story is..... you may think u big time in these streets they'll even let u get rich until the U.S. GOVERNMENT decides enough is enough yall doin too much it's time to go 😂
Todays mafia is not the idiots you see making “real housewives of mafia members” shows. They’re quiet. Their leaders are not known anymore like they were back then. You’re super sleep if you never took a look around and realized everything they did is legal now. Forget all this “jewelry thief” BS. Monopolies in Construction, garbage, betting, real estate, multiple beauty salons etc are all legal ventures now. Walking around with their “mafia-ness” on like badges, the random public Knowing them, were all mistakes they do not make today. This was a very naive statement.
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
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.
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.
No when you step into the place Joe Pistone.went. two you are that person. For Life. This is a Fact.Yes you can go back to your true self but. You can never forget who you where.
Why not subtitle in Romanian or in all dialects all your posts ?! It's a shame, you have interesting and good posts ,and you could have many more subscribers and visitors !!!
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.
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.
He also has to make sure he doesn’t say any law that he broke. And we all know he definitely committed crime, how you running with mobsters for 6 years and never broke a law
In the book he was hanging out with the Jilly crew pretty long after the incident and he hit both Frankie and Patsy, Jilly was the only made guy in the crew.

bellissimo documentario, ma che te lo dico a fare
Todays mafia is a joke. Postone AND hill both lived in the public, doing interviews and podcasts
Todays mafia is not the idiots you see making “real housewives of mafia members” shows. They’re quiet. Their leaders are not known anymore like they were back then. You’re super sleep if you never took a look around and realized everything they did is legal now. Forget all this “jewelry thief” BS. Monopolies in Construction, garbage, betting, real estate, multiple beauty salons etc are all legal ventures now. Walking around with their “mafia-ness” on like badges, the random public Knowing them, were all mistakes they do not make today. This was a very naive statement.
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
LOL the much more modern trucks used as 1970s-era trucks in this documentary! 😂😂😂
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.
Does this guy think his sunglasses protect his identity? lol we know it’s you Joe
''id die with you'' lefty is really a loyal friend
L histoire change au fur et à mesure que le temp passe et quon sait d autre chose??
The two words that still push a button with Joe Pistone till this very day: Tony Mirra.
Or Patsy....
Martin Mcbeth always pissed me to my core
While we're talking two words
Got that right
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.
No when you step into the place Joe Pistone.went. two you are that person. For Life. This is a Fact.Yes you can go back to your true self but. You can never forget who you where.
For sure he got some Balls..! Respect!
Why not subtitle in Romanian or in all dialects all your posts ?! It's a shame, you have interesting and good posts ,and you could have many more subscribers and visitors !!!
De ce ar trebui sa faca o traducere in romana¿ Româna este o limbă vorbită aproape exclusiv în românia și moldova

Que bueno este video
Loved this documentary on how it works with the "Mob" .. 🙈🤪☠️🤣
Está bueno el documental iré al baño y vuelvo
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.
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.
He also has to make sure he doesn’t say any law that he broke. And we all know he definitely committed crime, how you running with mobsters for 6 years and never broke a law
In the book he was hanging out with the Jilly crew pretty long after the incident and he hit both Frankie and Patsy, Jilly was the only made guy in the crew.
I think he had a ghost writer for his book though I could be incorrect about that.
Exactly well noticed
