How a mobster in the Witness Protection Program made off with tens of millions of dollars of developers' money. Frank Gioia Jr. No longer exists; his business associates know him as Frank Capri. No background check would've showed his past as a confessed murderer, drug dealer, gun runner, arsonist, extortionist, loan shark and leg breaker because the Witness Protection Program isn't set up to protect the public.
