Greg Scarpa was just one FBI 'informant' along with Whitey Bulger and others operating under the corrupt FBI head J. Edgar Hoover. Robert Mueller was head of the FBI in 2002 when he fought congressional subpoenas dealing with the case of 4 men convicted and sentenced to death for a crime the FBI knew one of its 'informants' had committed instead. Mueller had overruled the unanimous parole board recommendation that Mr. Salvati be paroled, effectively denying the innocent man he knew was innocent for an additional 14 final years of his wrongful incarceration.
Robert Mueller proved he was willing to sacrifice innocent Americans in order to protect the corruption of government institutions that had given him such high and lucrative jobs in the government. He and James Comey later botched the anthrax case in which their innocent victim was awarded millions from the government for Mueller's and Comey's false accusations against him.
Mueller and Comey conspired together again to try to frame President Trump for a fake crime in order to Help Hillary who invented the fake conspiracy theory Mueller spent years and tens of millions of dollars trying to piece together.

U.S. Must Pay $101.8 Million for Role in False Convictions
BOSTON, July 26 — In what appears to be the largest sum ever awarded in such a case, a judge on Thursday ordered the federal government to pay $101.8 million for framing four men for a murder they did not commit.
Two of the men, Henry Tameleo and Louis Greco, died in prison after being falsely convicted in the 1965 gangland murder. Two others, Peter Limone and Joseph Salvati, were exonerated in 2001. Mr. Limone was released after 33 years in prison; Mr. Salvati had been paroled in 1997.
“It took nearly 30 years to uncover this injustice,” said Judge Nancy Gertner of Federal District Court. Judge Gertner said the case was about “the framing of innocent men,” adding that “F.B.I. officials up the line allowed their employees to break laws, violate rules and ruin lives.”
The men were exonerated after the discovery of F.B.I. memorandums, which were not turned over during trial, that indicated the government’s primary witness, a mob hit man named Joseph Barboza who was known as the Animal, had lied when he said the four men had killed a low-level mobster, Edward Deegan.
Mr. Barboza was protecting the real killer, and F.B.I. officials went along, the memorandums suggested, because Mr. Barboza helped them solve other cases and because the killer, Vincent Flemmi, was an F.B.I. informant. By the time the four men were exonerated, Mr. Flemmi had died while serving time in an unrelated case.
At the time of Mr. Deegan’s murder, the F.B.I. under J. Edgar Hoover was zealously committed to crippling the mafia, and, the judge said, the four men were treated as “acceptable collateral damage.”
