Dilapi was killed in 1990 only thing i could think of is they thought he could come back and take over. Casso and amuso are on the lam from the window indictment in i think may 1990 so they started to kill any threats that guy bruno in bk. Salerno in the bronx. And control there little pupet al.
DiLapi was only a soldier, he was never going to make Boss, he didn't even have his own crew.
Guys like Salerno and Migliore had contracts put on their heads because they could take over as Boss, but those guys were heavyweights in the Lucchese families largest money making racket - construction unions.They were tight with the Genoveses and could oust Amuso and Casso with the support of the Bronx crews and the Genoveses.
