Jimmy I indeed started as a Taylor Street guy along with Harry Aleman. Allegedly it was the LaPietra brothers who made him into the 26th St Crew after one of his many stints in the joint...My guess is DiFronzo doesn't give a shit what the Cicero/26th Street guys do and it wouldn't surprise me if he didn't get much of anything from them- Part of the reason Johnny is still around after all these years is that he never stands in their way from making money. Why would they want him out?? ( Apart from those dry snitch rumors )
