BOSTON (WPRI) - A former New England mob capo is facing time behind bars.

Mark Rosetti was convicted Thursday of ordering a break-in at a Boston area home to steal heroin and money.

The 52-year-old was among 31 people arrested in a large-scale organized crime and drug trafficking sting in 2010.

He is still awaiting trial on those charges.
