I need to verify some facts. Abscam was a major FBI operation in the late 1970s and early '80s. Rose Hart was a key informant, often called "The Real Rose Ann DiFazio" in some references. She provided information that helped convict several politicians. There were debates about whether the FBI used entrapment or if the politicians were genuinely corrupt. Also, after the trials, there were concerns about her safety, but she was eventually protected.
