Why was he whacked?
He went against Genovese leadership and didnt take a plea deal in a case him and several others tied to unions the Westside controlled...he represented himself and was acquitted while the others were convicted...the Genovese lost control of a major union (possibly on the docks) and I think the Gambinos took hold...this and the fact the leadership didnt like the attention from the case brought caused the order for DiGilio to go...
Thanks, It makes sense.
Larry Ricci apparently wasn't a student of history.
Apparently he wasn’t because he died for the same reason, but I read other reasons as well such as:
Him trying to murder the Philly administration in order to place one of his associates As boss and take over the family, another one was he was trying to take over the Jersey Crew. Don’t know if these are accurate but this was what I read/watched on youtube
