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 wouldnt disclose where Gravano served his time or where he plans to live now that hes a free man.
Hes very upbeat, very positive, Farinella said from his New York office. Its been 17 1/2 years. A lot has changed. It takes a little bit of getting used to. Hes trying to figure out what he wants to do and hes in no hurry.
