Paul and his uncle Big Paul were both associates that were on Carozzas renegade side. They werent made yet because there was no order in the family. But they were told that if they help fight and fund the war through robbing mid level drug delaers . Theyd be made. They were heavily banking on Patriarca Jr reclaiming leadership. He was due to be released from prison in a few years.. Ironically Jr had no plans on being a mobster after he got out. It wouldnt have worked anyway...lol
