Ex-Mafia hit man ‘Sammy the Bull’ Gravano now out of prison

[PastTense]

PHOENIX — Former Mafia hit man Salvatore “Sammy the Bull” Gravano has been released early from federal prison after serving most of a 20-year sentence for drug-related convictions in Arizona and New York, his attorney said Thursday.

Thomas Farinella said his 72-year-old client was released Monday, but wouldn’t disclose where Gravano served his time or where he plans to live now that he’s a free man.

“He’s very upbeat, very positive,” Farinella said from his New York office. “It’s been 17 1/2 years. A lot has changed. It takes a little bit of getting used to. He’s trying to figure out what he wants to do and he’s in no hurry.”

I just finished the book "Five Families" that went into Gravano's whole saga. Great read if anyone's interested in mob history.
