IIRC, Franzese discussed the murder of a close friend. Supposedly, he was dating Michael's sister (I believe with his blessing). Apparently this was against mob rules and the relationship disrespected Franzese in the eyes of LCN.

Michael reluctantly agreed to having his friend whacked, as he felt he didn't have a choice. He claimed that he was unaware of the rule. Does anyone else recall this and is this still a rule in the mob?

You shit-kicking, stinky, horse-manure-smelling motherfucker you! If you ever get out of line over there again, I'll smash your fucking head so hard you won't be able to get that cowboy hat on. You hear me? Fucking hick. -Nicky (Casino)
