Also, I would like to add that the Colombo Bros. (the sons of Joseph Colombo Sr.) left the family following the Orena war, because they refused to come back into the fold. This was detailed in their March 2004 indictment. They had some impressive rackets going on in Manhattan and upstate NY, including pretty sophisticated construction shakedowns. According to Gang Land News, they also had sitdowns with other families over gambling & loansharking turf, despite being shelved by the Persico admin. All I'm saying is, if they could do all that as an independent entity, imagine what they could achieve with the blessing and support of the entire crime family. Since Anthony Colombo, the eldest son, was the de-facto capo of the shelved Colombo Bros. crew in the '90s, I assume he'd be a capo if Orena had been able to peacefully get the 'boss' title.
