The Melshishes were both freelance cowboys. Since the '70s, anyway. If anything, Prisco could have claimed them from Coleman and gave them to QD's protege, and no one would have made a fucking peep about it. That he didn't speaks volumes. The point I've been trying to make---going on two years now---is that the Meldishes were persona non grata with the Luccheses and the Westside.

When Joey Meldish whacked out that kid, he went into hiding for years. And he wasn't hiding from the cops. Because the guy who owned Frenchy's at the time was on record with the right people. And you don't pull that junkie cowboy shit in a neighborhood like Throggs Neck, in a bar that's protected.

One brother's in Hell, the other's gonna die in jail. What comes around goes around.
