Again...Genovese only made 3 guys during his 22 reign, Porter, Naples and Strollo. After his "right and left" hands (Porter and Raucci) were convicted in the biggest racketeering trial in Pittsburgh history, he never opened the books again to make anybody else. Zottola was well respected and trusted, but never made. The Genovese family in NY had to give the permission to open the books since they represented the Pittsburgh family. Mike Genovese was well insulated. After Porter perjured himself on the stand during trial, he later cooperated with the Feds but couldn't testify because he already was deemed not credible as a witness. His information did lead to the take down of the Strollo enterprise in Youngstown including Zottola who would have been in jail if he didn't die in 1998. Porter also helped the Feds in averting mob hits in NJ, Pittsburgh and New England.
