Rule about murdering an unfaithful wife

[SantoClaus]

Of course it's human nature for a husband to want to kill his wife for cheating (especially in the old world), but Tony Lima said it was a rule and that a member would lose standing in the organization if he didn't kill her.

There is the well-known rule about a member not messing with another member's wife or female relative, but this is a different take, as it involves the member's own personal response to his wife's actions, not necessarily a issue involving other mafia members.

I know and i was only messing around B.

In my recearch i only came across Mafiosi who killed other guys so they can get their wives, or bosses like Giancana who really appreciated unfaithful wives who in turn belonged to his own members.

So thanks for the rare examples.

Didn’t Leonetti kill the guy of the woman he is now married to?

Yes, Vince Falcone was dating his current wife when he killed him. “But you have to understand Forrest, we come from a very different world...”

If all members killed their own unfaithful wives during the early 60s, Giancana mightve been called the "Grim Reaper" lol

Has it ever been explained why Mancuso clipped his wife and why he did it in such a stupid spot?
