they had that capo violi up in montreal office bugged and he gave the who;e process of rusty becoming boss. how violi was summoned to nyc by rusty to be the montreal crew to become the boss. it happen at some hotel in nyc in feb 1974 and the other bosses on the commission okd it. so think thats carlo gambino, tom dibella, benny squint/funzi tieri, think tony ducks. the last time there was a full commission i think in nyc.
Hey pmac, I read somewhere recently that Violi went to NYC in Nov 1973 to participation in the election of Rastelli as boss. Violi apparently brought Joe DiMaulo and his brother-in-law Raynald Desjardins with him... the latter is interesting since he’s not Italian.
Any idea if this is true?
