In the 5 families Raab said that the Chin really liked Savino and for this reason dont whacked him even if many people in the genovese family said him that Savino was a rat but the Chin until the end ever protect him.
In the articles is said that pappa killed 2 colombo men and dont gave money to his superiors but who was the capo that whacked ?
The iron in this case is that gerard son is a colombo associate that would be made in the family if doesn't get life in the late 90s.


He whacked both the Spero's I think
