I understood that Ligambi was well liked all across the board, and not just by his own faction. I never read anything hinting that he was greedy and impartial.

As for Chicago. What have they been up to in the last few years under DiFronzo’s regressive regime? Based on what you said, it seems that the rebuilding already started when the Cicero crew openly disagreed with the way things were run and were listened to.

What do you think was the toll of DiFronzo’s leadership?

Is there is anything worth re-building and, most importantly, are there enough people willing to take the effort to make it happen?
