When I read Phil Leonetti’s book I read that he was in the running to become boss .
That Riccobene wanted to become boss was fruit of the paronoid head of Scarfo sr; Riccobene had his small family and was a huge drug trafficker due the Bruno ban on drugs.If Scarfo would continue to accept the tribute and don't pretend all the riccobene rackets,there would be no war because harry was old (he was born in 1909) and was a old school guy in fact don't had problem with chicken man testa but only with the greedy scarfo.
