This is a work in progress. While the original focus was on New York's Five Families, it has been expanded to include other American crime families.

Two considerations:
The Witness Protection Program began with Pascal "Paddy" Calabrese and was a direct response to Buffalo mob boss Stefano Magaddino. While serving a five-year stretch, Calabrese started nursing a deep hatred for Magaddino, who had cut him loose. Magaddino had done the same to the drug-dealing Agueci brothers, forgetting about them as soon as they were arrested.
While out on bail, Albert Agueci threatened the 75-year-old Cosa Nostra boss, saying if Magaddino didn't use his connections to help him and his brother, he'd talk to the FBI about everything.
And so.... Albert was not only found dead a few days later, strangled, then doused with gasoline and set afire. Magaddino used the death to send a chilling message throughout the underworld.
Albert Agueci's body was missing 40 pounds of flesh, which had been sliced off. Both his arms and legs were broken, and his jaw. The sawing, cutting and breaking had been done while Albert was still alive.

An imprisoned Calabrese had Albert Agueci on his mind when, wthout even realizing, he drafted the agenda for what became the Witness Protection Program by saying he'd testify against his boss in return for an end to his prison sentence; relocation for him, his girlfriend and her children; and new identities for all.

Secondly, anyone officially made is made for life. That's right, even if he flips, he's still a member, only he's considered "shelved," said James "Big Louie"Tartaglione at Santora's enterprise corruption trial.
Tartaglione's testimony is corroborated by former Gambino capo Michael "Mikie Scars" DiLeonardo, who said the same during his own testimony.
"The family can not make another person to take your spot until you are dead," he told Cosa Nostra News.

The American Mafia website noted
While neither knowingly provided information to government investigators, both Joseph Bonanno and Raymond Patriarca Jr. unintentionally divulged details damaging to the American Mafia. In his autobiography "A Man of Honor," Bonanno provided federal prosecutors with much of the information needed to later bring down the ruling Mafia Commission in federal court. Bonanno explained the functions and membership of the Commission. The book provided a prosecution map for then-U.S. Attorney Rudolph Giuliani. Raymond Patriarca Jr., while boss of the New England Crime Family, conducted a 1989 Mafia induction ceremony within range of a surveillance device. It was the first time law enforcement was able to listen in as Mafia members were "made.
