It’s like the mob makes them quite two faced — because it is. This is one of the devil’s love traps. To a guy floundering in a mishap of life, it is not hard for the mob to approach him and win him. Oh you can have your evil and your religion too. Seems to me this (the point of recruitment) is where it should be cut off.

One guy I track is Oscar Goodman, lawyer to the mob and former Vegas mayor. There is a long documentary about his former clients, he invariably says they were nice guys. They must have killed 50 among them, sometimes with an icepick in the ear.
