The Original "Goodfella": A life of crime followed by 30 years on the run

Henry Hill spent the first half his life working for the mob and the second half on the run from them. Now at 67, still compulsively looking over his shoulder, he is surprised to be alive.

The Telegraph recently caught up with one of the most (in)famous gangsters ever to "rat out" the Sicilian fraternal organization.
