I still don't believe rizzuto would break those rules. even massino in 2000 made it back to 100%. no irish mom or greek, theres probably a lot of guys on the east coast who got in the lcn after jr gotti got in with his Russian mom. people changing there name to there mothers maiden to get in. tommy delgiorno from philly hid his polish mother from scarfo.couple boston guys moms were irish.



You're correct about the greed, I read a few books about the Rizzuto LCN, and the "making" of guys up here seems to be a subject of contention, but from wiretaps of Vito himself it seems quite clear that he and Desjardins were very close, and handled huge narcotics deals together. A police source with access to those wiretaps said the only guy that they ever heard talk rough or angry with Vito was Raynald... the wiretaps in this thread seem to indicate that he was officially inducted, but even if that wasn't the case, it's clear he has more power than many-a-made italian members.
