Petrocelli had a long time rivalry with another guy in "The wild bunch" named Tony Borsellino. Eventually Petrocelli had him whacked because of some bullshit story that Borsellino was cooperating with law enforcement (he was not). But he bent the ear of Rocky Infelise (major boss back then) that Borsellino couldnt be trusted and even blamed him for skimming when in reality he himself was stealing the cash.

A real asshole even with Outfit standards and hated by many including Frank Calabrese Sr who described him as "a blowhard and a bully". He had a flamboyant behaviour and became even more unpopular in Outfit circles by coming on to the wifes of members in prison. Was eventually murdered by "the breeze" Calabrese on orders from Angelo La Pietra, boss of the Chinatown Crew/26th Street Crew.
