when Genovese put Zebo in charge of watching both Joey and Lenny, do u have any idea about how either of them ( meaning Naples and Strollo) felt about having a soldier watching over two capos? Zebo was definitely a powerhouse in his own right.
I've always wondered the same thing, oldschool. If the leadership (Genovese) was so worried about the actions of those guys that they had a soldier watching over them, why even promote either Joey or Lenny after Prato's death?
That leads me to my next question, which maybe Henry can answer. Why not bump Zebo up 'officially' to have his title match his true power by mob protocol? Chucky was already away in prison by that time, was there ever any thought of Zebo being promoted to underboss (even in an 'acting' capacity, since it wasn't yet known that Chucky was cooperating)? And if so, why wasn't that move ever made?
