I agree too, but this is USA not Europe ,and this case caused too much heat, if they kill him or any member of his family , feds will be all over them , very bad for business



You don't get it. Why would I do business with a "Mafia family" who doesn't even avenge the death if their boss? Let's not BS here. US LE are not super men. They don't catch everyone. Most crimes are never solved. This is the BOSS of a major Italian OC family that was killed. A message has to be sent, otherwise US OC is a total joke. Non US OC will show zero respect.


Again, The Underworld doesn't always run on that type of respect. Nor does LCN represents all of the US OC.

They didn't do anything when one of their captains was shot in his own store by a civilian, the guy still lives in Staten Island. This isn't a movie, some other group isn't going to say "Wow, they didn't do anything when their underboss was killed by a complete whack job, now is the time to make our move!" That makes no sense. If some other group or even other some other LCN family feels the Gambinos can be moved on they will make a move, regardless of what happened to Cali. Also, US LE is pretty damn effective when they are dealing with criminals or crimes that have caught the public's attention and when big time criminals get convicted in the US they do real time in real prisons. This isn't Canada where you can be caught red handed killing a mob boss in a mob war and get 10 to 15 or less, or Mexico, where a cartel boss can have his jail cell turned into a luxury apartment. There is a reason why everyone, from Rizzuto to El Chapo, fights extradition to the US tooth in nail.
