This discussions kind of dovetails with the "Cali Shot Got Me Thinking" thread... there the question is would this have happened back in the day, and clearly whomever kidnapped Gambino's nephew didn 't worry about repercussions.
I don’t think what happened to Cali would’ve been likely to happen in Carlo’s day. Or the golden age of the American mob. I believe that maybe the kidnappers felt that they would not get caught somehow. But I do agree that clearly they weren’t too concerned with repercussions relative to whatever position they were in that they felt the need to kidnap one of the relatives of one of the most powerful men in probably the whole country at that time.
