    Defense attorneys often say the most difficult client to defend is the one who’s truly innocent. An innocent person with no links to sketchy people isn’t able to provide a premeditated, bogus alibi for whereabouts during the time of the crime, he’s not able to throw a criminal rival to the prosecution in order to get the heat off him, he can’t give up co-conspirators for a reduced sentence. All the guy can say is he doesn’t know what happened, and he has no clue who would commit the crime. That’s the American Justice System hard at work in blind pursuit of the truth

      No. He got 10 years in federal prison which he served then was sentenced to 40 years in state prison. He was locked up in 1999 and was just recently released to home confinement last year. But he will be sent back to prison soon. It was only a 1 year temporary release. He will die in state prison. But in total he’s served over 20 years.

      Iceman A PROVEN LIAR ,he had no mob connections, he was just a sick killer,all the alleged mob hits he did are nonsense. All the mob guy's that were part of the Gambinos like Dominic Montiglio have said the iceman 2as nothing to do with them

      @@lordoffaiyum9727 No he wasn't. According to Al Demeo, Roy's son, and Mickey Featherstone from the Westies, the Iceman was a fraud. The Westies were the only Irish Gangsters outside of the Italian Mafia , that did hits for Demeo. Michael Franzese & Sammy "Bull" Gravano have said that the Iceman is a fraud and that they have plenty of made men who are not big earners and they are responsible for carrying out most of the hits for nothing.
