In Brasco the book, from memory, Lefty at one point was serving as acting Capo of SB's crew whilst SB was street for Rastelli.
And these are the facts for anyone with logic and rationale:
a) Massino killed Mirra for introducing Pistone
and
b) Massino killed SB for introducing Pistone and to eliminate his rival in taking over the family.
What Massino stated about SB being hit for a power play is BULLSHIT.
This is what you HAVE to believe if you believe that:
1) That SB wasn't hit for introducing a FEDERAL AGENT, TO BE PROPOSED FOR MEMBERSHIP, into a family, in the early 1980's.
2) That AFTER introducing an FBI agent into the family, SB would make a POWER PLAY FOR BOSS.
3) That Tony Mirra who INTRODUCED PISTONE TO THE BONANNOS was hit AT THE SAME TIME, for UNRELATED reasons.
4) That The FEDERALLY DISCLOSED hit on LEFTY at THE SAME TIME as the Pistone revelation WAS ALSO UNRELATED.
5) That SB, whilst making a powerplay in the family, would attend a sitdown with his enemies, after transferring his rings and personals off himself, would attend a sitdown, ALONE, walk DOWN STAIRS with other 'enemy soldiers' behind him, TO A BASEMENT, after introducing Pistone, whilst MAKING A POWERPLAY FOR THE FAMILY?
Any one in the history of the mafia, or sanity, make any move so stupid or contradictory (removal of personals)?
You believe what Massino says, you HAVE to believe EVERY point above.
Every one.
What a truly fantastic set of coincidences eh.
