The innocent men the FBI had knowingly imprisoned began getting out of jail in 1997, as this heinous story unraveled. Greco and Tamelo died in prison. H.Paul Rico retired from the FBI and became head of security for World Jai Lai, a gaming business, where he had the distinction of being the first FBI agent to provide information to organized crime that facilitated a homicide. The Winter Hill Gang had placed Rico as head of security to protect a skimming operation that netted about $32,000 weekly in today's money. Joe "the Animal" Barboza was the first inductee of the witness protection program. He went to culinary school, then proceeded to kill someone. The Mob located Barboza in San Francisco, he was almost cut in half with four shotgun blasts. Sounds like a movie but this was real life, thanks to the Boston FBI. Please share this episode!
