--------
Anthony Capo, a notorious mobster who admitted involvement in two murders and 11 murder conspiracies, was sentenced to just four years in prison after turning government witness, revealed former federal agent Seamus McElearney in a recent interview. Capo’s cooperation, which began in late 1999, marked a seismic shift in mob prosecutions, breaking a decades-long barrier as he was one of the first “made men” to flip.
McElearney detailed the painstaking months of debriefing Capo, who nonchalantly recounted his violent crimes, including home invasions and shootings. After pleading guilty in 2000, Capo’s testimony helped dismantle key mafia operations, triggering a domino effect of further high-level defections, including acting boss Vinny Palermo.
Capo served four years before entering witness protection, becoming a professional witness who testified multiple times, aiding major indictments against top Mafia figures. McElearney credits Capo’s decision as pivotal in crippling two crime families and ending an era of mob silence.
