Not believing this theory at all.

It is well known that egotistical Scarfo didnt like any threats to his throne. And the timing of the hit coming after the article calling Salvie the up and coming don or whatever they called him really put a hair up Scarfo's ass.

That seals it to me, that Scarfo did it for his own selfish reasons.

And I always maintained this hit was a mistake. He was 100 percent loyal to Scarfo and was on the front lines for him during the war. He promised to look out for Salvie if anything happened to his father, and instead had him killed.

Such is life in the mob.
