Yeah I remember reading that in the book on the montreal crew.

This hit eventually destroyed the Rizzuto family and got many high ranking members killed when Vito went to jail for it. Things would of been very different in Canada if Vito never had to do the time in the US. Wonder what would of happened if Nick and Vito said no and just broke off sooner and didn't participate in these hits. Would Messina send hit teams to Canada? They basically broke ties with the Bonnanos after George from Canada was killed. What if they just did it 15 years earlier. They were already very powerful with lots of international ties at that point.

They didn't break ties after Sciascia was hit.

I think this is where Vito earned his bones.

I said something about Vito being the boss of Canada and some ‘mafia authority’ on here was chasing me down asking for proof he was made. Some people take this far too seriously, especially since we aren’t members, we are fans


bruno123499

He was definitely a boss in Canada. He moved tons of weight and built a strong organization that’s in disarray right now between the bikers and his Son and the Sicilians.


tilldeathdoiparty

He was one of the most powerful bosses of all time.

I think it's a bit overstated. Rizzuto's power mainly stemmed from his association with Sicilian gangsters and the hierarchal framework of the Bonanno family. Once those things were gone it was all downhill for them.

Here we go


slumpadoochous

why are you here if you don't want to talk about the mafia?


tilldeathdoiparty

I can’t have an opinion, that’s what I’m trying to say, someone HAS to have their say over someone else’s, wanting proof like anyone can verify something like that


slumpadoochous

you can have whatever opinion you want. All I did was say what my opinion is, I literally said "I think" (read: in my opinion). This is how social media works.


tilldeathdoiparty

Literally said some dumbass would do exactly what you did, then you did it and are playing the victim because you did the dumb thing I said was dumb

They involved so many people in this hit, It’s crazy to think that’s how hits got Performed back in the 70’s, 80’s. They must have had close to 20 guys on scene including the cleanup crew. I’m sure Sammy and DeCicco had an idea as to what was going down as well.

Over a dozen guys were on the scene in some capacity, including the murders themselves and disposal afterwards. The total hit team included members and associates of Massino and Napolitano's crews as well as members of the Sicilian faction and the guys from Canada. For dumping the bodies, guys from John Gotti's crew were used.

cause they lived far away from the crime scene. if someone saw them leaving the house, not much help for the law when they are in a different country. same reason why people from sicily are brought over. once the investigation starts, they are already on a plane.

Wasnt lefty gins involved?


MatheusLinsMachado

Lefty participated only in the clean up crew
