I think that Lucky was close connected with the old Sicilian bosses even before the deportation.So when he went to Italy,he was well recognized and he had a warm welcome into the heroin biz.Dont get me wrong he might had some problems with other bosses but I don't think that he was harassed that much.The biggest problem for Lucky,while in Italy,was the government and later his old pals from the states.They wanted him out of the durg biz or there was another rumour that he wanted a bigger cut.
