After Death
Cops later found Matt's body and a witness told officials about the murder, which according to a transcript was on the night of April 29, 2000, at about 9 PM. The witness identified Tony from a picture without knowing that he was a mob boss. When the witness learned that the murder was mafia-related, he then refused to cooperate. The feds continued to try to pin the murder on Tony, but remained unsuccessful. Tony repeatedly worried about being implicated in the murder. In the second season finale, Tony asks Pussy if he may have tipped off the FBI about the Bevilaqua hit. Pussy denies this accusation, although Tony executes him regardless.
In the fifth season finale, after Adriana is murdered, Tony asks Christopher if Adriana may have mentioned anything about Ralph or the "Bevilacqua kid" as he was taking precautions, making sure she hadn't said anything to the FBI to implicate them in relation to the murders.

Famous quotes containing the word death:
“Ai! ai! we do worse! We are in a fix! And you’re out, Death let
you out, Death had the Mercy, you’re done with your century, done with God, done with the path thru it—”
—Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)
“Since the death instinct exists in the heart of everything that lives, since we suffer from trying to repress it, since everything that lives longs for rest, let us unfasten the ties that bind us to life, let us cultivate our death wish, let us develop it, water it like a plant, let it grow unhindered. Suffering and fear are born from the repression of the death wish.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
