So Sammy puts on the whole "I was betrayed by John,I realized that he was trying to set me up to take the blame on murders he ordered" fairy tale.

Truth be told,he was never gonna take the fall.
And if I may be more blunt,I believe that his Plan B all along, was that if he ever faced serious time,he always had a sacrificial lamb to lay on the altar of the FBI.

Just my 2 cents.


Thats the best explanation (and the most logical) that I've heard on here about why Gravano flipped.

He was a treacherous piece of shit, who jumped ship as soon as the feds came-a-callin. Period!

...Thats the long and the short of it!
