Well, it’s official. It’s really frowned upon to work as a decorated police officer during the day and a mafia hitman at night.
A pair of highly decorated ex-NYPD detectives were convicted Thursday for their roles in eight murders and assorted other crimes while on the payroll of a mob underboss in one of the most astounding police corruption cases in city history.
The federal court jury in Brooklyn deliberated for two days in the case against Louis Eppolito and Steven Caracappa, who spent a combined 44 years on the force and once worked as partners. The pair, who were immediately jailed after the verdict, face up to life in prison on their convictions.
Eppolito, 57, and Caracappa, 64, were accused of leading a double life for years: respected city detectives who moonlighted as hired killers for Luchese crime family underboss Anthony “Gaspipe” Casso.
I suppose technically, there’s some sort of conflict of interest or something.
