Vic Orena is rarely talked about on these boards. I was wondering; How powerful was he as Acting Boss?? It's said that Carmine gave him power that is unheard of in the Acting Boss role. I have several questions about Orena.
1st: Was there a legitimate way of Orena taking the family from Carmine Persico?? Did the commission back either of them?? I think Gotti was friends with Orena and backing him at one point to take the control of the family.
2nd: I saw a chart a few years ago of the Orena faction; The faction was huge........ How could they have not won against the Persico faction? Orena had the power of a boss; and he was out of prison..
3rd: If Orena did take control of the family; Who most likely would have been in his administration?
Would love to hear some insight!
