I'm sure one of the aloi's was acting consigliere at this time It had to be Buster. His sons Vincent and Benedetto were only around 30 years old at the time. I'm surprised Benedetto Aloi wasn't on the list.

He never testified against anyone from the family, but did testify against former business partners, IIRC. Didn't he also testify in front of a senate committee and tell them the details of how his gasoline racket worked

Bretti was set up by the FBI coersing a confession out of associates and makin them nameing Bretti in the murder of Dawn Grillo as a condition of immunity.....it's the best thing that could have happend to him, becuse the hole was already dug. I often wonder if that POS knows how close he came to getting whacked. In the end it didn't matter, we still sent the Columbos home with their tails between their legs. AJ DeAmico should be added as a made guy who flipped, and has since died. Not 100% sure if Danny Nappi was made or not, but I suspect he was.

Been there and done it I am very much for real, so if you ask, make sure you really want to know.
