The Genovese family has a knack of fooling the FBI and the NYPD by placing top wiseguys/capos in the boss's throne to think that they are the boss (hence the term front/puppet boss), but in actuality, someone else is running the show. Since the Chin's death in 2005, it seems that they have not had an official boss; I do not know if Barney Bellomo is the new boss as reported by Gangland News but he could be and may have been the de facto boss as early as 2006. The question is - are they pulling off the same stunt they did in the 1970s and 1980s?
