      I remember watching this interview years ago and really being impressed by Michael Francese but now knowing everything I know he is a scumbag liar snitch stool pigeon that never did 90% of the things he claimed to do. He ratted on the mafia, on his partner, and his father. His brother also snitched on their own dad. He never killed to make his bones. He sat down with the government and gave them information to avoid a long prison sentence and to keep his assets from being seized. And the only reason he was ever allowed into that life was out of respect for his father. He wasn't a street guy. He was a spoiled little brat that ran around using his father's name to profit. Sonny is not even his biological father. He's an adopted bastard with no idea who his real father was. And he's not allowed back in NY unless he's got a film production crew with them and armed security. Now he is a fake pastor hiding behind the Bible. What a clown 🤡

I worked at a huge metal recycling company and i remember seeing the prices spike, which was unheard-of. Its never happened before or since then. I asked my boss, who was the GM at the plant and he informed me about why the value of iron skyrocketed.

Mike probably grew up hearing stories about this guy, especially since he was in the wrong side of the rails robbing and doing shit urchins do. These were the guys no one messed with no matter how tough you were in the streets.
      Edit: I realize looking up Michael as a hero during his crime career is wrong in itself. It's just amazing now, looking at him using it as an avenue to teach people that it was wrong, he did pick up things there that he valued though. Like never talk, be disciplined, be loyal to family, be faithful, carry yourself well, if you have to the lie to save a life etc etc.
