Aiden Gabor is a former associate of a notorious crime family, who, found his way back to the side of justice. Approached by the DOJ with a daunting ultimatum— face life imprisonment for crimes including racketeering, embezzlement, extortion, and conspiracy to commit murder—he chose to become a confidential informant. For over a decade, Aiden worked undercover, risking his life to help the DOJ arrest and convict over a dozen high-ranking police officers and politicians. His gripping memoir, Conflicting Loyalties, offers an unflinching look into his life as a Mafia enforcer and a DOJ informant.
