Barboza could not leave that life. That was is undoing. Had he just followed the witness protection program, he would still be alive. I heard Aladena Frattiano tipped off the Boston guy, but Barboza became friends with an associate of Vito Bruno, who then started to ask around about this guy who no one knows about. I heard that the contract was going to be given to Vince "Barrise" Barrisa, but in the end the guys from Boston did Joe in.
