@Dante yeah I feel that Scoops mentioned (it was either in the Nicky Skins tapes or Lou Fazzini detention memo) that he would take Joe Grande under his wing and into the Newark crew upon his release to make sure he was "on board with the new Administration". I guess there was some doubt with Ligambi and company that Joey Grande might still have loyalties to the Scarfos. To the point where I think Nicky Jr was going to reach out to him at the instruction of Sr. I believe all that has been put to rest though because I know Joey Merlino and the Philly Grande's have a good relationship with Joey Grande's family (wife and daughter) as of current.
