Here is an example of why you dont wach a guy after trial. 1991 Kansas City Missouri, Mob associate Larry Strada testifies against Made Soldier John Mandacina. Mandacina is convicted of illegal gambling and is sentenced to 15 months. Mandacina decided that Strada must die to send a message. Strada is murdered. Of course the hired hitman is caught doing armed robberies, and resulting investigation ends up in life sentences for both John and Charlie Mandacina.
