Anastasia had Scalice whacked so how close could they have been, just sayin...
Scalice was made a boss 1930-31 by Maranzano after Castellammarese then went to underboss then consligliere until Jimmy Squillante whacked him at the fruit stand in the Bronx. Anastasia came up from Masseria and Scalise from D'Aquila. Scalise was also related to Dominick Montiglio and Nino Gaggi who avenged Scalice by murdering Squillante and dumping his body in a tenement furnace.
