Agreed. Inadvertently Guiliani stuck it in all their asses based off Bonanno's book. I'm not sure Bonanno was pleased by that. A bit embarrassing for him to say the least. He was even jailed by Giuliani on a contempt charge for not testifying about the book when hit with a subpoena.

It was the only time in Bonanno's life he was jailed. How ironic that it was after he was no longer in the life for decades already. His mouth and pen got him in trouble.

And yes about Bonventre. Although never confirmed anywhere to my knowledge, I would have to believe there was some blood connection there between the Bonventre family and Bonanno. That may very well be why Galante chose Bonventre and Amato as his "palace guards" bodyguards and disciples right off the bat.

they were cousins, and born in Castellammare. Typically the same names are bandied around that small village for centuries.

He felt they had a loyalty based on lineage....what a mistake he made huh?
