Leonetti did talk about Scarfo's father in his book. He said he was "100% legit" and "was never involved in the mob or anything illegal". He said Philip Scarfo was a laborer at a hotel in Atlantic City.

He also said that Scarfo looked down on his own father because he was legit and that they weren't close because of it.
