Former mobster Dominick Cicale reveals the intense moments following his release from a nearly nine-year prison stint in 1999. Cicale, who lost his entire 20s to incarceration, recounts the frequent violence he witnessed during his time in Lewisburg prison, including daily stabbings and assaults. Upon re-entering the streets, Cicale quickly found himself in the complex web of New York's organized crime. After an altercation with a Lucchese captain who called him a rat, Cicale was defended by Vinny Basciano, a significant figure in the Bonanno crime family. Their bond grew strong, leading to Cicale's involvement with Bonanno captain Bruno Indelicato, known for his role in the 1979 assassination of Carmine Galante. In a striking twist, just two months after regaining his freedom, Cicale, alongside Basciano, executed his first hit.
