Sharpton secretly worked as FBI mob informant: report | New York Post

Meet Al Sharpton, “Confidential Informant No. 7.”

The longtime agitator, civil-rights activist and TV host was exposed Monday as an alleged former key FBI informant whose tips helped take down some of the biggest names in New York Mafia history.

The Rev. Al launched his sensational secret life as a paid mob snitch in the mid-1980s, pressured to cooperate after being ensnared in a developing drug sting, according to a bombshell report by thesmokinggun.com.

Says a lot for the type of connections the "Reverend" had. Thanks to a sting operation that linked him to a drug ring, the FBI negotiated with Sharpton to give up his mob buddies. There's more to his past than just Tawana Brawley apparently.

And this guy can be heard screaming at the camera every night on his own show on MSNBC.
 
Just confirms what we all knew, he's both crook and conman.

Uh oh.....Sharptones, a Snitch huh? Now why isn't that surprising. :lol:
 
Remarkable that anyone, other than MSNBC, would acknowledge Al Dullton working for them.
 
i am sorry but this story seems too sketchy to me. how credible is the source used by the new york post?

Heya CJ. :2wave: Think those who he helped bring down ever forgot about him or knew he was the snitch? Do you think they are waiting until he is officially out of the Cameras eye, before they decide to have little talk with him?

Once he can't hide behind the Democrats and TV.....wonder what will ever become of him. :mrgreen:

I would strongly recommend reading the entire article in The Smoking Gun, it is absolutely fascinating and extensively researched. Takes awhile, it's a long article, but it's so interesting that it is hard to put down. You learn a lot about how much the East Coast mob is into. Much of the indictment of Sharpton is near the end.

My conclusion was that this article may not be good for Sharpton's health.

Yeah as usual.....since it was NY Post referencing another Right? :roll:


The Rev. Al Sharpton says a report that he spied on New York Mafia figures for the FBI in the 1980s is old news.

Sharpton spoke Tuesday about the story posted Monday on the website The Smoking Gun that said he had recorded conversations with mobsters.

The website said Sharpton worked with a police-FBI task force. The site posted dozens of pages of documents that it said showed Sharpton's dealings with mob figures.

Sharpton said he went to the FBI when he was threatened by mobsters in the music business.

He says he cooperated with the FBI but didn't consider himself an informant.....snip~

Good afternoon MMC - I try not to think much about big Al Dullton - he'd actually be pretty good as a "plant" - nobody would suspect the bat-**** crazy idiot racist fool of being able to pull it off.

Come on now, don't go teasing us this way.

Yeah Ray. :2wave: All are saying it was well researched and that the Smoking Gun Carried it. It is long.

I have no problem believing anything bad about Reverend Al Sharpten_

I would however have a problem believing anything good about him_

He's a lowlife human parasite who feeds off the weak and ignorant_

And I have much the same beliefs about the Reverend Jesse Jackson_

Yeah, Jackson isnt any better with his ties to the Blackstone P Rangers and Jeff Fort, and of course the GD's.....course his son and Daughter in law getting locked up bears that all out.

Although.....Junior has already found a way to get out by possibly Dec of this Year. But their Ethical and Preach about whats Right.....huh? :lol:
 
I just surprised ol' Al managed to keep anything a secret.
 
That's interesting. According to him he was afraid of a mob attack and cooperated with the FBI, but there's no telling.

I wonder what they have on Obama? :lamo
 
Ray & CanadaJohn, your posts in this thread are making me laugh. Good stuff!

I watch Al's show on MSNBC at 6 pm, or I should say, when my husband isn't it the house. My husband would shoot the TV if he saw the image of that racist, clueless, repugnant SOB. But when he's out, I treat myself to an hour of Al. Why? Because after an hour, I'm usually laughing so hard that I've wet my pants, it's hilarious to watch the guilty white Liberals begging for his approval, I'm always waiting for one of the Duke Lacrosse players whose lives he ruined to come on the set with a club to bop him in his head, and no matter how bad my day is, I can always say "I am not the Reverend Al Sharpton".

I can't wait to tune in tonight.:lol:
 
Obama must be envious... a race hustler, anti semite, community organizer just like Obama... birds of a feather..
 
That explains why that piece of **** isn't in prison!

I could get much more into it if it were reported by mainstream.

If you're expecting mainstream to report on one of their own, don't hold your breath waiting.

LOL, where's there's one way to put it. But yeah, Sharpton true rap sheet would stun a mastodon.
 
The black fella helped authorities nab white criminals ?

Smoking Gun. I'm not sure about the NY Post either. May just be my own bias.

The story is being picked up everywhere. I've seen it in the Times, Time, Fox and NPR, among others, already this afternoon.

I don't know how credible the Gun is, but this sure is an interesting story.
