That story is in Hill's book, "Gangsters and Goodfellas." Is it true? Could be, but you must also ask (anyway, I ask) :rolleyes: :
--Since Henry and Karen are divorced, did he make up that story to make her look bad?
--Why would Vario, a most powerful capo, need to go to the Gambinos for permission to whack Tommy, who was an unmade associate in his crew?
