I don't know shit about Philly and even less about Scarfo Junior. But I do know a little something about the current Lucchese administration, and there's no way in Hell that they'd go along with any of this alleged nonsense (not saying it's nonsense because it didn't happen, just because the idea itself is insane). If this was a different time, the Luccheses probably would have hit him themselves. This poor kid is coming home to nothing in twenty years.

@Blackjack: I feel bad for him, too. It's probably because I see him as a Philly version of Craig DePalma (encouraged, if not outright pushed into the life by his father). Craig was seven or eight years younger than I am, and he grew up in Westchester, as opposed to the Bronx. But I knew him very well, and my heart breaks for what happened to that kid. He was no Saint, not by any means. But he was no gangster, either.
