I thought that most of the Pizza Connection defendants were members and associates of groups that lost the war in Sicily to Riina.

By the way, is Salvatore Catalano related to Onofrio Catalano, boss (or former boss) of Ciminna in Sicily? I remember reading Buscetta named Salvatore Catalano as member of the Ciminna family, not sure if it's the same person.
