Summary of Joseph D. Pistone's Donnie Brasco

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The media knew that a primary witness would be an FBI undercover agent who had infiltrated the Mafia. They were using every angle to try to find out who it really was. I had never given an interview, never allowed the press to photograph or film me.

#2 I was in a whirlwind after I ended my undercover role. I was working with U. S. attorneys to seek indictments of Mafia members, and preparing for trials on racketeering, gambling, extortion, and murder in New York, Milwaukee, Tampa, and Kansas City.

#3 I was testifying against Milwaukee Mafia boss Frank Balistrieri in August 1982 when a defense attorney asked where I and my family had lived while I was undercover. I didn’t answer the question, but the FBI moved my family anyway.

#4 I was forty-three years old when the first of the cases went to trial. I had missed six years of normal life with my family. I had done the best job I could, and I was proud of that.
