Gregory Scarpa Jr., notorious for his ties to the Italian mafia, unexpectedly became an informant while incarcerated with Islamic terrorists, including Ramzi Yousef—the mastermind behind the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and the 2000 millennium attack plot. Scarpa forged an unlikely bond with Yousef and other terrorists during prison lockdowns, covertly aiding them with food during a hunger strike. Intrigued by their plans, Scarpa secretly relayed intelligence to his lawyer, who informed federal authorities.
Equipped later with a spy camera by the FBI, Scarpa gathered critical evidence about terrorist schemes, including threats against prosecutors and plans involving hijacked planes. Despite providing this intelligence in the years leading up to 9/11, opportunities to thwart the devastating attacks were missed. Scarpa’s story highlights a complex intersection between organized crime and terrorism inside prison walls—suggesting that early intervention by such informants might have altered history’s course.
