In a lecture the Monday after Easter 1971, Neville brings up the recent death of a mafia figure in New York who had turned informant, giving the FBI a boss's real name, and who died in prison under threat of a mob hit. He uses the story, alongside his reading of Judas in the Gospel of John, to explore what it means to betray a trust.
