So perhaps it was a warning not to get involved BUT again, suppose Old man Joe decides to tip off Galante. Having a serial killer like Galante retaliating isn't a great idea if one wants to live a long life

Now, I'd understand if they sent word to Joe AFTER the hit, as a warning not to interfere nor retaliate in anyway

But it confirms what I said. However I forgot were I found this news and when I looked it up I saw it was from a blog with innaccurate information in the past so I don't know if it is to be trusted or not.
