I bet that it's a thought that he had and he turned it in to a reoccurring nightmare to embellish his story. I've never believed that its a reoccurring nightmare.
You talk as if it's out of the realm of possibility for somebody associated with the DeMeo crew to have nightmares about it.
concerning the demeos. reading "murder machine" its amazing how the crew could get away with so much. the author claims 200 murders! demeo killed a kid who he thought was after him.( the kid was selling vacumn cleaners door to door} shot and killed him in broad daylight. had to be the most reckless crew ever in the mob.
In my opinion Gotti's Bergin crew was probably the most dysfunctional crew.
