This puts a whole new spin on the inner workings of the Philly Mob. Scarfo guys are active and two New York families have dealings with them. There was a recent article from Capeci about why Philly guys love Steven Crea, what was that about?
apparently crea while he was acting boss and amuso was still official was stalling in making nicky scarfo jr into the lucchese fam,finally amuso sent word from the can to "get it done" and scarfo jr was made as a favor to scarfo sr who was prison buddies with amuso, the philly guys like licata were on the tapes talking about how crea did everything he could to stall it and they respected him for that
Tommy Shots: They want me running the family, don't they know I have a young wife? Sal Vitale: (laughs) Tommy, jump in, the water's fine.
