@Rush Im not saying that you're wrong...maybe my source used Caruso's name as "label" for the Chinatown crew and who knows, maybe Caruso is retired and maybe Nick is running things for the group, BUT that same source named Caruso as being the leader of the Outfit, possibly with Nick as capo for his personal crew....just saying.

Even though Nick's dad was one of the most powerful capos during the mid and late 1980's and also a rep for the whole Cicero/Chinatown group, still I look at Caruso as more senior member mainly because he was/is a capo since the 90's and also comes from a long bloodline of Outfit members such as Bruno Roti Sr., Sam Roti, Alderman Fred Roti, Tony and his son Fred Bruno Barbara, and above all his father Skids Caruso who in turn was a capo from 1957 until 1976/77 and was the successor of Roti Sr.'s original and former Chinatown crew which was later absorbed by the new Chinatown group such as the Buccieri/Torello/LaPietra crew from the Cicero/West Side.
