I am not saying the Feds are full of shit but they have been wrong. For years they said Chicago made guys with a handshake. Prior to Nick C. cooperating they had no idea Aiuppa started the formal LCN ceremony. Feds said Chiaramonti was killed in 2001 over video poker dispute which doesn't seem to be the case. They were wrong about the status of Lombardo and Tornabene as well.
The feds said Chicago made guys with a handshake or Roemer and some authors said it? Also, let's not forget that certain facts about some of these guys would have never come to light if it weren't for the feds. It's always ironic that people criticize the feds for when they get things wrong (which is very much in the minority of the time) while depending so much on them for information.
Mods should mind their own business and leave poster's profile signatures alone.
