Chickie was very respected before he went away, people forget but he may have not been on the street more than a year during the Scarfo era. He originally got put away in 82 and this was after getting out from another stint of about 5-7 years, people forget that he was well established in the Bruno era. During his sentencing in 89 the prosecutor pointed out that Chickie had he not been behind bars for over a decade would have been boss.
