For years, the New York Police Department and the FBI believed that Tommy DeSimone had either been murdered by Jimmy Burke, or that he was in hiding to avoid being killed.
His brother-in-law, Lucchese family member Joseph "The Barber" Spione, also disappeared shortly afterward. It is suggested by authorities that Spione was murdered by the Gambino crime family to counteract any potential retribution from Joseph. His body has never been found.

Agro confessed in 1985 that he was the driving force behind the "getting made" ruse as seen in the film. Agro assassinated him on the orders of John Gotti, and also admitted to murdering his brother Anthony DeSimone after Anthony turned informant

When Hill became an FBI informant in 1980, he told authorities that DeSimone had been murdered by the Gambino Crime.
Another account, told by Hill in Gangsters and GoodFellas, states that Gotti himself was the triggerman. On May 17, 2007 on the Howard Stern Show, Hill reaffirmed that Gotti had killed DeSimone.

So apparently there are about 3 or 4 different claims to who actually killed him, pick which one you believe.

It's a movie not real life!

They say that supposedly John Gotti had him killed because he had killed Billy Batts. However, that is just a rumor, so who knows?
