How effectively can a mob boss run his family from prison these days? The Snake has been off the street for over 25 years.
Chin relayed messages through his son, Andrew, and apparently, they were recorded and prosecuted for that. Was Chin in a higher security prison compared to the Snake? I figure that the feds could easily eavesdrop and record his conversations and would eventually be able to decipher his code.
How can the Snake run things from behind bars, unless he is just a figurehead with no real power?
Persico can also meet with his lawyers. And the fact that he still has so many family and friends on the street is a big reason why he's remained boss for so long.
