You always hear how killing a boss is one of those sacred mob rules you can never break. Well how come for all that time Merlino was trying daily to kill a boss that NY picked, nobody came down from NY and either read him the riot act or killed him?
Funny how that works.
Well there was that tapped phone call recording between stanfa and one of the sicilian gambinos. And stanfa was complaining about merlino and how he just wanted new york to send some guys down to help take him out, and the gambino said that they were"at his disposal" but then they mever sent anybody.
