I don't know what you mean by this. Members of defunct families can get indicted as members of said family, even if that family isn't active. This is because once you are made, you take the vow for life. Even flipped crime family members have said they are still members, just "on the shelf." It was a Bonanno guy that said that.

Why? If the guy was made in the 90s, the family went defunct in the early 00s, and the guy was indicted in 2017, he is still a member of the "Todaro organized crime family." The feds are under no obligation to specify that the family is defunct, because the guy is not charged with being a Mafia member, he is charged with narcotics trafficking, according to the DOJ.
