Anyone know the full story behind the pat testa hit? Ive heard the lucheses blamed the murder on the gambinos, to justify whacking junior and lil nicky, but what did pat testa do that caused him to be murdered? This hits pretty elusive, the full story never rly came out and no shooter or shooters have ever been named.

Wasn't this another one of Casso's hits due to his paranoia about who was loyal to his leadership, etc?

remember reading capecis article like 10yrs ago. well frank lastorino's family asked capeco to clear the air and write in his column franks had nothing to do with pat testa murders that the family have been close friends for decades. i believe he wouldnt have done that if he had anything to do with it. did casso plead guilty to pat testa murder? the thepry was casso had him killed when amuso was picked up in 1991 sp he would stop bringing info to amuso and carrying out his orders. still wonder what the final straw was that amuso broke down casso from underboss to putting him on the self in 1993 once he was picked up an jailed.
I read that Amuso got paranoid in jail and felt that Casso got him picked up so he could take the top spot on the street. Apparently when all this talk of a big escape was going on Amuso just said stuff it and clipped his wings. Also he couldn’t clip him whilst cassO was on the street as Casso had more power than him. When they was both inside it was a level playing field and all that was left were the official stripes.

Casso seems like a real snake. It could be possible Casso killed testa since he was a loyalist of amuso.
