I want to debate that point. How is it not, in your reasoned opinion?

There was only one meeting which they all attended and at that meeting they agreed to keep Russo on as boss until Teddy got out and he would assume the position. This is the real point of the meeting the actual reason they all gathered, at some point during the meeting Ferrara is given responsibility of pilfering at least 10k a month from the benefits fund and kicking it to the administration. I just don’t see where that involves 30-40% of their captains or how it’s a sign of financial distress.

It’s a meeting to decide on bigger issues and one captain was told ‘hey steal this money every month and send it up the ladder’

You’re trying to paint a picture of the entire admin and half their captains meeting for the sole purpose of squabbling over chump change and from available evidence that’s just not what happened. Don’t take it personally all I’m saying is you’ve misread the tea leaves.

"Made guy going to work every day? Unheard of! It's over." (or alternately if it's the Genovese Family they're geniuses)

"Admin members splitting a 10k/month kickback? Pathetic brokesters fighting for pennies. It's over."

Good argument bud. You got me.

Wonder if this was from Ferrara. Seriously concerning if not. This SHOULDVE been a good move, and yet its barely a couple of months and the Feds know the new acting, a relative unknown.

Westside shaking their heads.

Thanks for posting

And this ‘10k at least’ was something new they were extorting from the benefits fund and separate from whatever they had been getting for the previous 20 years. Most importantly no signs of anyone fighting or arguing over any of this at all. Maybe there are other articles showing that? I searched and can’t find anything like that.
