Rusty ended up having to clip his first wife Connie (who was a total hothead and nut job herself) because she actually looked to gun him down in the street after she caught him having an affair with another woman. She actually shot and wounded Rusty, but he survived. Afterwards she wildly (and carelessly) threatened to reveal mob secrets about his rackets to law enforcement. That became another threat (one that he and his associates couldn't take a risk on). So after those incidents it was decided she had to go....and so she went!

They shot her dead one day!
