In this clip, Joey Merlino expresses his anger and frustration over the pervasive culture of "snitching" within the world of crime. Coming from the perspective of someone deeply embedded in criminal underworld operations, Merlino describes this tendency to rat out fellow criminals as a tactic to avoid jail time and maintain freedom. He recounts experiences of being betrayed by those he thought were loyal, emphasizing the treachery and danger inherent in the world of crime. Despite this betrayal, Merlino maintains that crime should have consequences, criticizing individuals such as infamous mobster Sammy The Bull for manipulating the system for personal gain. He unequivocally condemns Sammy The Bull for his acts, claiming he managed to evade a life sentence for 18 murders, only to be released and sell ecstasy to children.
