Greg ( The Grim Cuckold) Scarpa really ruined his son. He not only got him to come into that life, but with he knowledge his father was a rat. According to the son his father also once wanted him to take a rap for him! I never heard of any mobster telling a son to take a fall for him, there has never been one as low as that. The son wound up in prison till he was old on another case, despite his father and his years of cooperating.
He beat in prison Vic Amuso because Vic said that greg sr was a rat.
So Scarpa jr risked that Amuso would try to retaliate maybe paying an inmate or a guard to kill him.
