Casso was the dominant one in that sick relationship, Moe. It was almost like one of those sick tandems on "Criminal Minds," where both guys are capable of murder, but one guy is calling all the shots and completely dominating the other.

Sure, without Casso around to instigate him, Vic was a different guy. I've heard he was actually pretty easy going and well liked. But by the time Casso got through with him, he was basically going along with everything he had to say.

It's a shame, though. Vic ended up being the true gangster. He stood up, where that psychopath went on "60 Minutes," and helped ghostwrite one of the worst books in the history of true crime.
