I remember reading about how Gotti said to Scarfo, "I want you to know Nick that, I did this the right way!", implying that he got commission approval for the hit.
Now, if Gotti was telling the truth, who voted how?
The only obvious one to disagree seemed to be Gigante.
1985 Bosses:
Gigante: Voted NO.....Also wonder if Benny Squint had any input
Rastelli (aka Massino's voice): Probably said yes because he was BFF with John in 1985
Persico: I have no clue.... I do know that he was the ONLY one to vote NO for the Galante hit though.
Corallo: I have no clue BUT, have read that Casso apparently supported the hit and only denied it later on when asked......Someone also recently posted about Persico's close affiliation with Casso AND how they and their wives would go upstate together.
Scarfo: It appears that Gotti left Nick out of this decision
Accardo: I have no clue
Has anyone heard any concrete stuff on this topic?
Gotti's co-conspirators spoke to Casso and Amuso, as well as Genny Lang from the Colombos (who was tight with Angelo Ruggiero). The Genovese weren't consulted at all; the Bonnanos had no vote on the Commission until the Gotti period, but Big Joey may have known beforehand.
