I thought Johnny Chang wasn't made yet because he was still serving a prison sentence.

Here's an interesting newspaper quote from Johnny Chang's lawyer in 1989:

"Much has been mentioned about his father," who is in prison on a 1982 federal racketeering conviction, Nastasi said. Nastasi referred to a letter to the judge from Ciancaglini's father in behalf of his son in which the father accepted responsibility for his own crimes.

Nastasi noted that while other Ciancaglini sons had been "initiated and made members" of the Nicodemo Scarfo crime family, John Ciancaglini had not.

"There are sons younger and older who are involved in a much more serious way. That should weigh in his favor," Nastasi told Gawthrop.
