Why was Sal Avellino spared by Amuso/Casso - 10/29/21 06:02 PM

The amount of informants due to the Amuso and Casso violent reign is downright staggering; A lot of guys were marked for death; Some captains were killed; Etc: Mike Salerno; Mike Pappadio; Buddy Luongo; Even Neil Migliore an old timer who was made over 20 years before Casso and Amuso had a hit attempt made on his life…. Luckily he survived …

Anybody who posed a threat to the Casso and Amuso leadership were undermined and deemed rats were murdered or maimed… even blood family members of guys were being targeted…

My question is; How did Sal Avellino escape their bloody reign??? He was a white-collar guy who had a lot of clout… He made a lot of money and was close to Tony Ducks Corallo… I believe if things were set up right; He could have become boss; but I think those Jaguar tapes curtailed his accession to the top spot…

Also got to remember; Some guys wanted Avellino gone due to those Jaguar tapes but Corallo gave him a “pass” and told his guys to leave “Sal alone”

Why was Sal Avellino spared by Casso and Amuso after Corallo got life In prison; (After all; Avellino. could have threatened their leadership) and Corallo couldn’t protect him then… Casso and Amuso could have had him whacked for “any” reason they wanted but they didn’t… why?

Would love opinions!

Sal Avellino number 1 wasnt a threat to them...he was never becoming the boss.....and they liked Sal because Sal wanted to murder the garbage assocation witness and had his people wack them....

Sal is a legit billionaire. He might be the only billionaire in the American mafia.

I knew he was very rich but wow , a billionaire or close? That's impressive. What about the Colombos we can't even type their names on here because they block them out, also very rich

You're talking about John Stalupi and John Rossatti. Yes, they are both extraordinarily wealthy lol. Stalupi might actually be a billionaire by now. There's a handful of these guys who have made astronomical amounts of money. Papa Smurf from the West Side had a lot. I don't believe that guy was made though. The West Side has a few really wealthy people. The West Side owns everything it seems

Yes whenever the richest ones come up those names all come up quickly. Curious how much money Castellano had when he died, killing him prob got them an insurance policy as well as saved the millions in trial and lawyer fees

Per D'Arco - Avellino himself was concerned that others in the family were calling him a rat after the bug in his car helped put Tony Ducks away in the Commission trial. They had originally turned down his request to have the garbage haulers killed, given the heat at the time but relented and Avellino was 'relieved.' Amuso and Casso also knew he was a huge money maker on L.I. with the garbage carting union and there really probably wasn't a better replacement.

Avellino wasn’t seen as a rat by Vic and Gas, later on Avellino asked for permission to kill Robert Kubeca and Donald Barstow, the 2 garbage haulers who cooperated which led to bug in the Jaguar.Sal Avellino made a lot of money to and still does in recent times according to John Pennisi.His brother Carmine Avellino is a Capo, he helped Al D’Arco and George “Georgie Neck” Zappola kill Michael Pappadio.
