In 2007, a federal court found James Marcello, a top man in the Outfit, responsible for the murder of the Spilotro brothers along with other murders and various crimes. With Marcello, who received life in prison, a number of other top Outfit members were indicted and convicted of other crimes in what were known as the Family Secrets trials, facilitated by testimony from Frank Cullotta and other former mobsters-turned-informants.
