Just watched a documentary about Lenny Strollo and the mafia in Youngstown. I remember reading somewhere on this forum that his formal rank was just that of a soldier, so could somebody explain to me how could he run an entire organization and give orders to other soldiers and corrupt politicians and judges? He even ordered a hit on a prosecutor. If he was that powerful, why wasn't he given the rank of capo?


Willie Marfeo to Henry Tameleo:

1) "You people want a loaf of bread and you throw the crumbs back. Well, fuck you. I ain't closing down."

2) "Get out of here, old man. Go tell Raymond to go shit in his hat. We're not giving you anything."
