Once Tony Ducks was out of the picture, the two old friends began to sour. The dots go back to Angelo Bruno killing, and they were poaching Northern New Jersey members of the Philadelphia crime family. Taccetta tried to get Accetturo demoted when Anthony promoted his own son as acting capo to be groomed for the official spot. This was during the trial, when it looked like many of the crew would be locked up. Then he was gunning for Accetturo when Michael came back into the fold with Amuso and Casso. They say Amuso gave the green light, but it is more likely Casso told Taccetta to go ahead, then he talked to Amuso to get the official order.
