In a groundbreaking breakthrough, former FBI agent Seamus McElearney recounts how he secured the first-ever cooperation from a DeCavalcante Mafia made man in over a century. Tasked with arresting Anthony Capo—a violent soldier tied to murders and stock fraud—in 1999, McElearney approached the case with respect and meticulous preparation. Despite Capo’s notorious hostility to law enforcement, McElearney treated him humanely, studying his life and health needs before the arrest. By demonstrating knowledge and empathy during their early interactions, he planted seeds of trust. Within a week of Capo’s arrest, McElearney received an unexpected call: Capo wanted to cooperate. This unprecedented defection shocked the crime family and aided a massive indictment that included 39 arrests. McElearney credits patience, respect, and personalized engagement for breaking a century-long Mafia code of silence, setting new precedents in organized crime prosecution.
