No opinion on rumors, but it's worth pointing out that the Orefice allegations related to a major case involving the indictment of a family leader. The reaction to certain behavior in the mafia changes depending on how much publicity it gets, the legal ramifications, etc. not unlike some of the historic attitudes toward drug dealing. The mafia is also morally inconsistent so it's hard to paint them with one brush on any given topic.
