Well obviously not all murders were related to potential informants, since some or most were related to inner conflicts and greed, again because they were almost financially destroyed during the previous decade, and so all of those hits gave Accardo, Aiuppa, Alex and the rest of the bosses a lot of power in the underworld but also received a lot of sin on their souls just to protect their 100 year old organization and above all, their remaining finances. In addition, this was probably second most bloody decade in U.S. Cosa Nostra history, after Prohibition, in which again the Chi Mob contributed a lot and almost went under the radar for most Mob historians. Also spot on the Casino scene lol
