It was either late 76 or 77 it really doesn't matter to me. The book he wrote in 92ish should be the bar. I mean I forgot what he said in it. He really didnt go into to much detail he did say it was dibella as boss and his father was locked up at the time of his induction. Sonny was paroled in 1980. All that shit about him doing 50ty yrs was bullshit. He did aton of time but for a flare stretch I dont think he did 10. He goes to jail around 70 71 and was paroled buy 1980. I mean those luchese guys all did like 20straight that run the show today. If sonny stops violating parole all those times he probaly only had done the 70tys disco era
