I dont think Jack Tocco is right to put all the blame from the Operation Game Tax case on Tony Z.He may have been caught on tape giving underlings orders to do exactly what one of the mafias main incomes have been for a 100 years- collect Street tax but he never snitched on none of his prison bits to get out of trouble and hell Jack Tocco only did a freakin year compared to Tony Z doing 12 years+ this time at his age.
It seems like Tony Z would have enough pull to stay active at least as an earner but who knows and secondly as long as his family has been involved it would seem like he would have legitatamate business to still fall back on.?
Just dont seem right that Tony Z is one of the few wiseguys to know the true meaning of "Omerta" but supposively gets put on shelf from the posistion of "Underboss".?Wasnt his silence worth something when half these wiseguys cant do a 5 year bit without nibblin on cheese.
U know damn well the FBI wanted Jack Tocco and Tony Z could have gave him up but didnt.That could be a snake that comes back to bite Jack Tocco but i believe you know your a rat or will rat long before your put into the posistion to snitch so i dont see Tony Z doing that as a payback.
I dont think he is very good person to be part of the hierarchy anymore but i dont believe he should have been put on a shelf.Use him as a Figurehead?Secondly he probably cant associate with NO known criminals while under state/federal supervision after doing prison time.?
