@Furio - He was slated to be made in December 2010 but the ceremony was cancelled due to heavy law enforcement pressure. The following month came the huge indictments. Sessa was in Brooklyn lockup and the entire street administration were there too so, out of respect for him, they inducted him then and there. I don’t see how that screams desperation at all. It really makes no difference whether they made him in prison or waited until he was released. It’s not like he can be an active soldier in prison. It was out of respect for him scheduled to be made the previous month.
