That's sad. I usually bring up Craig DePalma as the example because it's pretty close to home for me, and his story is so fucking tragic. But I've never seen it end well for ANYONE who got shoved into the life by their father. It looks like Scarfo Junior is no exception. If that's all true, I feel kinda bad for him.
This situation is when compared to chicagos views on these things. I can't think of a many sons made in the outfit besides dino marino, nick ferriola possibly and of course jim Marcellos father sam was in the outfit. Jims son Rocco marcello is in the life but I don't believe him to be made, I don't know if they were encouraged to be in the life. Calabrese jr said in his book that when johnny apes who's son is legit was boss he gave nick calabrese a gun and permission to kill frank sr for getting his sons in the life. Angelo lapietra referred to it as a cardinal sin that must be handled, bringing a son into the life. None of the big guys made their sons like accardo, Cerone, difronzo, etc, etc
