Former Mafia hit man Salvatore "Sammy the Bull" Gravano has been released early from federal prison after serving most of a 20-year sentence for drug-related convictions in Arizona and New York, his attorney said Thursday. Thomas Farinella said his 72-year-old client was released Monday, but wouldn't disclose where Gravano served his time or where he plans to live now that he's a free man. Arizona Department of Corrections officials said Gravano got released from the state prison system last year, but was incarcerated federally until recently. Gravano got a five-year prison sentence in a plea agreement and moved to Arizona in 1994 under the federal witness protection program. Farinella said Gravano "was a model inmate" while imprisoned and "did things to improve himself in various programs without any issues."
