I also believe this and consider it a starting point for the future conflict. It seems that Giuseppe De Vito and his close associates were previously part of Paolo Gervasi's crew. My theory is that Gervasi was separated from his crew after he became a persona non grata for the Rizzutos, and I think Giuseppe De Vito subsequently took over that crew and began answering to Frank Arcadi. Ironically Paolo Gervasi was a Sicilian.
