The FBI has long viewed Adriana as a potential weak point in the family organization. In early 2001, after the death of Sal “Big Pussy” Bonpensiero, the FBI believed Adriana was a close relative of a rising star in the crime family and sent Agent Deborah · Deborah Ciccerone befriended her. Cicerone managed to befriend Adriana, but they were forced to abort the mission early after Christopher attacked Cicerone, causing Adriana to defend her friend and accuse “Daniel” of trying to take action.

(Ironically, when Christopher recently purchased the nightclub and was not yet a heroin addict, he had already gotten rid of all the drug dealers, even though he was aware of the DEA’s interest in the nightclub.)
Out of loyalty to Christopher, Adriana avoids revealing any important information about the family and does her best to avoid the Sopranos so as not to have anything to give back to the government. When the FBI learned of her involvement in covering up the club murders, her deception was discovered and they threatened to charge her with accessory to murder unless she provided full cooperation, including wearing a wire. She decides to reveal the truth to Christopher in the hope that they can escape together and start a new life. Christopher was angry, beat her, nearly strangled her to death, and burst into tears. When he reveals Adriana’s identity as an informant to Tony Soprano, his loyalty to the crime family exceeds his love for them.
