By the way, while it made sense to whack Gambino, Lucchese, Magaddino, since they were national key figures, but why DeSimone? He was boss in Los Angeles, and that family was always one of the weakest. Why bother with him, or did Bonanno have some personal reasons?
Word was that he wanted to make his son Bill boss of the L.A. family, because there was lots of money to be made in California.
