Witness Protection

I had an idea the other day for people in the Mafia that have been 'flipped' by the feds. For those of you that don't watch The Sopranos, this means that they have been arrested by the FBI and rather than do prison time are forced to turn against the family by becoming an informant and ultimately getting some damning information on tape.

These people are no longer any use the family, so why don't they tell their boss as soon as it happens? Then, instead of getting whacked because they have given over information to the FBI, they can be given a new identity by the family and dissapear. Kind of a mob version of witness protection if you will.

Some of you might say that those true to the family should do their time in prison, but this way there is another option for these people.
