What I can't understand is why in Cosa Nostra, specially Philadelphia, are relatives of informants allowed to get straightened out, not shelfed and are allowed to control a family? (Dominic Grande, Joey Merlino come to mind) Aren't they supposed to be excluded? Can anyone name any others either in Phily or NY who's family member cooperated.
I'm don't think that matters. Who was it Tony Spilitro or Tommy Disimone that acted even crazier then he should have because one of his families members was a rat so he always felt he had that stain on him and had to prove himself more. I think every crime family maybe not the Genovese has members in which blood family ratted. Like the old saying goes you can't choose your family but you can choose your friends.
