I thought about this....If Bruno didn't pull some kind of family connection (to get released early, my belief since his Uncle was close to high ranked politician), would he have also been released under the same terms that Christie Tick was? 40 year sentenced turned to like 12? Come On!
Christie's was not a compassionate release cause look at Sonny Franzese.

Because they were sentenced in like 1985, life sentences weren't set in stone or something. I know there was a loophole.

Therefore Bruno wouldn't have been involved in the Santoro hit that got him the additional 20 and would be a free man now....Why was a Capo involved in a hit to begin with? Isn't that usually done by lower ranks.

Also, was Bruno born in 1947 or 1956? Wikipedia has 2 different dates, as does other sites.
