Which raises the question: Why send Rocco to personally perform the hit on Roth, in public view, for all the world to see? Maybe a bit of directorial license comes into play at this point, but I was under the impression that professional hit men were generally hired for this kind of duty, the more obscure and anonymous the better, specifically so that they would not reveal a connection to the person or family who hired them - if they should be so unfortunate as to get killed or captured while in the act.
