As Confederate already said they used to kill people of almost every type of profile, in many different ways, on many different locations and in many different situations. And as he also pointed out, they didnt kill people only around the states but they also did it in other countries, especially around Central and South America. For example a lot of people went missing when Larner arrived in Panama or when Giancana sent Cain to Madrid and to tell you the truth, the CIA didnt come to these fellas for nothing. So my point is that wherever the Outfit had some interest, if a problem occurred then they usually solved it right there, no matter the distance but in Gotti's case, they obviously were only disappointed with the whole bringing down the heat thing and possibly with the problem of killing a boss, since they never really liked that with Big Jim Colosimo (1920) and Giancana (1975) being the only exceptions.
In addition, for those who are interested in the convo which allegedly occurred between Ricca and Accardo, this is what I once wrote:
In a Northwest Side restaurant in August, 1972, the two former directors of Chicago’s criminal underworld sat at a back table and discussed current activities while having lunch. They resembled of Statler and Waldorf, the famous pair of the comedy series “The Muppet Show” but in Mafia style. Now witness the following conversation, which took place between the two elder statesmen…first, Accardo laid the groundwork for the exchange: A certain New York family, he told his friend of many years, had been trying to keep all the rackets for itself. It was this family that was to blame for the scandalous violence. "That family is having a lot of trouble," Accardo continued, “They want to keep it all in the family. The mother wants all the black market, which means $600,000 or $700,000 a year. And the son wants all the extortion rackets. The son placed himself in a bad position on that." Ricca nodded gravely and grunted his agreement. The two old hoodlums were constantly eating and most of their words became muffled by their vocal gourmet artistry. It was clear that Accardo and Ricca were talking about the Colombo crime family and were obviously dismayed at the gunning down of the family boss Joseph Colombo, as he addressed an Italian-American Civil Rights League. They recalled the murder of another old friend of the national mob commission days, Tommy Eboli, who was also a victim of the East Coast warfare on July 16, 1972. They even discussed Eboli’s partner and their long time friend, Louie DeChiaro who was in charge of looking after Eboli’s sons Thomas Jr. and Louis. In fact, Louis Eboli was member of the Outfit located in the Stone Park area. They discussed the situation of their dead father in New York, and that DeChiaro was walking the streets of Chicago in the company of two bodyguards. But Accardo and Ricca were in no mood to permit similar indiscretions in Chicago so they assured DeChiaro and the Eboli brothers that nothing was going to happen to them. By the end of the meeting both Mafiosi closed their dialog by stating "Better them than us," Accardo offered philosophically. "You're right, Joe," Ricca replied, "Better them than us." With these last statements, they definitely showed their frame of mind.
