Was reading some interesting things about these two; Both were captains of the Gambino's Connecticut crew/faction.
Frank Piccolo was whacked on orders by Paul Castellano; Apparently; Piccolo was stepping on Vincent Gigante's toes; and making to much money?? Chin; went to Castellano and wanted Piccolo murdered. Piccolo was a captain and Castellano let another family strong-arm him over lucrative rackets and businesses.
My question is; If Piccolo was the captain of a NYC crew instead of Connecticut crew; Would he had been spared or demoted? How big was the CONN crew?
The next thing; Thomas DeBrizzi
He was whacked for refusing to leave Connecticut every Tuesday night to meet Gotti in NYC. Apparently in the previous administration; Thomas Bilotti was allowing DeBrizzi to miss meetings.
Did DeBrizzi deserve to be whacked?
Seems like to me; The CONN crew/Faction was expendable... What's everyone's thoughts?
