Once again, people are too hung up on the term factions. Disregard the "faction/crew" shit, for a second. And consider that maybe, just maybe, Ligambi, while still the sitting, acting boss for Merlino, simply meets with Borgesi, in an attempt to stay out of prison. And thats how orders are relayed back and forth to him from Merlino and Mazzone or whatever. Thats what I see the situation being. Not that Ligambi has his own crew, but that he simply is told and tells his nephew what the current objective is, and thats how things get back and forth between Ligambi and Merlino/Mazzone. I never once, alluded dissention or altercations with any of these guys, or that two or three made guys are backing a faction outside of Merlinos, because I dont consider Ligambi as having a faction of his own. But again, in Ligambis attempt to stay out of prison, his nephew is the link between Ligambi himself and Merlino/Mazzone. And to Shratweiser, that appears as separate factions somehow. I don't think he's right in that part of it, but when he says Ligambi is only seen meeting with Borgesi, he's partially correct on that aspect, only partially because he draws an inaccurate conclusion of because he's only seen meeting with Borgesi and not the rest of the Merlino camp, that he somehow is doing things on his own. That's what I mean.
As said prior to his trial, Ligambi was easy to find. However since his trial, most Philly reports suggest, Anastasia and Scott Burnstein excluded, that he spends most of his time in his house. By all definition, thats lowkey. You may know where he's at, but thats on you, as far as I know, which is little, he hasn't been out at every bar or social event, screaming out his affiliations and business dealings.
And what faction of his own did Bent Finger Lou have? He was under Borgesi, thus he was in the same faction as Angelina, they all answered to Merlino/Ligambi, they had personal beefs and Monacello appeared to have more backing on the matter than Angelina, whom as supposed under boss, I find it hard to see how that came to be. But Angelina was becoming a man on an island with his antics and legal issues. And guys were getting sick of dealing with him. I see it being more a case of that, than Monacello having his own faction, Monacello wasn't even made last I checked.
