I'm sure Carmine would have been happy that all mainstream news and publications named him as a boss, people still think of him as a boss over 35 years later and even people with a passing interest in the mob know him or know of that picture while only hardcore mob enthusiasts know anything about Rastelli.

The man died aged 69, on top of his game and with an almost (if not) instantaneous death.

For all the negativity surrounding him, the family fell apart from infighting in the immediate aftermath of his assassination, Rastelli was close to senility and would die not long after and his successor Massino would go on to become first bonafide boss to rat.


I invoke my right under the 5th amendment of the United States constitution and decline to answer the question.
