Cerone together with his cousin Skippy were known alcoholics among Chicago's criminal brotherhood and according to some reports, many members like Aiuppa were allegedly mad at Cerone for placing Ricca in a dangerous situation. So it is possible that Giancana shared the same opinion about the Cerones with the rest of the membership but I highly doubt that he hated Cerone. We have numerous cases in which Sam and Cerone collaborated together, although when it came down on who was going to inherit Ferraros underboss position, Giancana went with Battaglia instead of Cerone.

As for Aiuppa...I personally never came across information that Giancana allegedly hated Aiuppa. Also I believe that Giancanas hit was sanctioned by Accardo himself, not Aiuppa.


He who can never endure the bad will never see the good
