Should be relatively soon...but seriously, what is he going to lead? There's nothing left of any significance in Providence...one of their main sources of income were the strip clubs and the Feds are on to that scheme. There are no crews left, Rhode Island unemployment is high and there are plenty of casinos in the region, so even illegal gambling income will be severely reduced. Providence died when the old man stepped down and subsequently got indicted.

This family is eerily similar to Cleveland...and it will continue to be reduced to some younger made guys who have no leadership qualities and are doing their own thing...like 16 of the original 24 mafia families who are now defunct. Boston is in better shape than Providence, but even Boston is a shell of what they once were. Unless they go on a heavy recruiting campaign or bring over some Italians from the other side, which New England never really had any relationship with the Sicilian, Calabrian or Neapolitan mafia families, attrition will continue and the family will not be a "family" in the traditional sense. There are no young guys who are capable of being boss...that was evident when the family chose Fat Anthony as boss in which he demonstrated that he is a spaccone and a bumbling idiot incapable of garnering the respect of his underlings.
