Can someone explain the chain of command. When "the boss" got whacked, did this guy Rusty "become" the boss? Who was he that Sonny Black had to pay him. Also, what's the chain of command in the family, ie, comparison to The Godfather, what are all their titles?
Lefty always had gambling debts, so he really was pretty broke.

Rusty was the boss after Carmine Galante was murdered. Sonny Black was a captain. Lefty was a soldier in Sonny's crew, and Donnie was an associate of Lefty.
