Today probaly compared to the 80tys a boss wants less capos. Great book deal with the devil the scarpa book persico was makijg capos left n right to fill in for all the guys who went to jail. It worked it kept there family in control. But im guessing the gambino or westside probaly deals with less capos. Like i was saying there was a genovese capo in new england for 70yrs then the bronx bosses killed the guy bruno and never replaced him just had soldiers go directly to the bronx im sure thats whats happens in places all over metropolitan ny but it didnt blow up and trials like the springfield crew. Im sure theres probaly handfull of capos in long island replaced by a soldier today.

Borges is different, he previously held a higher rank and the only reason they knocked him down is because he was on supervised release, I'm speaking of freshly mint capo's

It makes since to have less capo's and just streamline everything, less activity less scrutiny

When you look at the Burroughs of NYC, most NYC families have at least 4 capo's in most Burroughs

So I guess the newly made Anthony Borges and David salvo will help to build Georgie's new crew

He could make a soldier an Acting capo because the capo is on parole or needs to fly under the radar. That acting capo then becomes his street guy who goes to sit downs and makes collections. Didn't DePalma make Vacarro an Acting capo of his crew?

No doubt !
