He went with the Lucchese's at the behest of his father and as a favor from Vic Amuso ( very close friends of nicky sr). Nicky had his son move out of philly and up to north jersey where he stayed under the watchful eye of the newark crew of philly after he was shot.. After some doscontent between scarfo and some of the newer guys on the street in philly, Nicky jr went with the Lucchese's for protection against any anti scarfo guys in philly and as i said, a favor from Amuso. Make no mistake, Nicky jr was an earner and he will stand up straight like a phone booth. Since Amuso is almost out of the picture, the bronx guys who now have the power in that family decided a north jersey guy should run the north jersey crew; Ralphie Perna. Ralph was kicking up a lot and that was another reason. Still, im sure he complained to the bronx guys that a philly guy should not be running the show in north jersey, bronx guys listened and logic prevailed. Scarfo jr gets demoted. If vic amuso was still significant, that aint gonna happen. It does'nt , so what does that tell you about vic?????

Some good information in this article from 1989. http://www.pressofatlanticcity.com/article_baa18e2a-5f82-11df-9d74-001cc4c03286.htmlScarfo Jr. had been acting as the area family's heir apparent, law-enforcement sources said.
He tried to collect the "street tax" on illegal rackets and carried messages from his father to northern New Jersey and New York crime figures such as John Gotti, head of the Gambino family, sources said.
But Scarfo Jr. was playing the part of the mob boss without support, sources said.
"He was acting like an organized crime overlord when in fact he was a courier for his father," Pagano said. "I knew his arrogance, his abusiveness, and his tactics would get him in trouble. He came out too fast and too heavy."
"He takes after the old man," a federal source said.
I invoke my right under the 5th amendment of the United States constitution and decline to answer the question.
