Why would we want the cop to announce himself this early?

Also, I don't know what to make of Sirius. If he's telling the truth, who was the mafia hit? It just doesn't seem to make sense unless the mafia didn't bother to kill anyone last night (and the godfather was killed by a third killing faction).
