For what its worth, according to the Rat Trap site, some made member (informer) from other familily considered Moretti as also allegedly being Chicagos guy in New York, and was labelled as "eastern rep" for the Ricca family. Maybe he acted as messenger between the two "cousin" families but that was allegedly Tony Riccis job, so who knows?!

On top of that there are some old sources saying that Costello allegedly also played a major role in the early release of Chicagos top bosses back in 1947. So maybe this Chicago connection had something to do with the Costelo/Moretti alliance...
