I’ve been meaning to post this for a while but forgot about Anthony Tortorello’s name until today…
He was a captain in the Lucchese’s and was able to get a “pass” for insulting Vincent Gigante…by saying he was a drug dealer and profiting from drugs.
Gigante heard of this and ordered Tortorello to be killed but Anthony Casso saved him….
Casso is a ruthless guy; Him saving Tortorello is kind of “out of the ordinary” How was he able to do this??
My question is; Why did Casso save him??? Tortorello insulted a boss of another family and pretty much called Gigante a drug dealer.
Why was Torterello saved?? Was he close with Casso and did they have business dealings???
Would love to know!

@Jace
From all accounts; He was saved by Casso (bizzare knowing how ruthless Casso was)
Didn’t Gigante put a hit out on Tortorello?? He wasn’t simply “suppose to be beaten up”

I think the story of Casso saving Tortorello sounds about right, I mean, think about it, if a Mafia soldier insulted a powerful boss like Gigante, it would take another powerful Mafioso like Casso to save him. Agreed. It’s just kind of mind-blowing that Casso would do that with how ruthless he was. “Saving his own guy” from a feared Gigante…

Maybe the guy was bringing in a lot of money. Or maybe it was an ego thing, he couldn't let Gigante or anyone get over on him.
