Yes Neil was on jail from 73-76. During that time Carlo got sick and Paul was the acting boss. So the decision had been made. Like I said Neil was well respected but he was always under FBI surveillance/indictment. He got inducted again in 1979 for murder and only got out of that because the Bergen crew murdered the co-defendant Tony Plate. Carlo wanted somebody similar to himself. Paul made mistakes near the end but his first 6-7 years he did the smart thing staying away from clubs and things like that and focusing on white collar rackets
