Former mobster Joe Barone detailed his time as the FBI's longest-running mafia informant. Born to parents who had mob ties -- his father being a made man in the Genovese Crime Family and his mother having ties to Al Capone -- Barone grew up as a "legacy wise guy." Barone talked about witnessing his father's activities and being groomed into the mafia lifestyle. However, Barone had no intention of moving up in the mob world until his father died under suspicious circumstances. This led Barone to cooperate with the FBI as an informant within the Bonanno Crime Family. To hear more about Joe Barone spending over a decade as an informant, view the full interview above.
