I was just reading up on the attempt to murder Larry Gallo and in one book it says Jimmy Clemenza was the actual guy strangling Gallo.

I know John Scimone and Persico were charged with the attempted murder of Gallo. And i believe Salvatore "Sally D" D'Ambrosio was also there.
From a Oct 6, 1961 NY Times article on the case.
