yeah he definitely made some horrible decisions, the worst of which IMO was trying to run shit from the can. I understand wanting to maybe not be left out to dry and have some income for his family but w so many blood realtives involved he'd always have that. Instead he put his son, jackie deross, people like that in there and their best earners/best soliders basically got killed off


well there are no perfect leaders but persico really screwed things up like you said: he put his family in charge and that didnt work for gotti either.
