Peter Lance's Deal With The Devil goes into some detail there.
Farace killed one heck of an illustrious decorated/educated/veteran officer of the law and US soldier named Everett Hatcher.
After the killing, even Gregory Scarpa Sr. disowned him, publicly, in a newspaper interview. Scarpa was his uncle.
The way the killing of the DEA agent transpired is suspicious to me because he was doing a sting operation being tailed by his co-agents when for some reason, the tail was lost and Farace was able to shoot Hatcher in relative privacy. I found that strange.
Now that you know the name of the agent he killed, it should be easy for you to look up how long it took that murder to catch up with Farace.
I did not yet see the movie you referred to.

This is what you want to start with, Hotdog-- cover story New York magazine, 29 January 1990-- https://books.google.com/books?id=YrUA24...ace&f=falseAlfa, if you've been to that part of Staten Island you'd see how the murder of Everett Hatcher is totally plausible... Steroids and cocaine are a very bad cocktail, as this and other cases demonstrate... What suspicions do you have? What's bizarre, if you read the Al D'Arco book-- which I highly recommend, despite all caveats (it's worth reading just for Brooklyn & Prince St content alone)-- is that there was any hesitation-- other than fear-- of killing Farace.

My suspicions are that Farace might have had help from law enforcement in hitting Hatcher. That is just based on the connection Farace's uncle, Scarpa, had with law enforcement. It's not inconceivable. Supposedly, FBI agents were guarding Nicky Black (Nicholas Grancio) who was a target of Scarpa. Scarpa supposedly called DeVecchio, and then all of a sudden the agents were called to a "meeting", and the mark was then hit. My suspicions are that this might be similar to the way Hatcher was gunned down.
