When Cabrini posted that chapter I originally thought Scoppa implied he was him to but I misunderstood what was said. As others pointed out, he wasn't referring to himself but that it was for another thing.
I think all he really revealed about it was that the killer is still alive
So maybe Desjardins then?
It seemed like Scoppa was talking specifically about the shooter being alive still. So I don't think Desjardins was the one he was referring to.
Here's what was shared
"Do I know who shot? Yes. Besides, this guy is still alive.

Not himself, but it clearly came from the Desjardins/Montagna faction. They they had hit several others like Agostino Cuntrera or Paolo Renda during this period
I think the Renda murder stands out. During this time all the murders were very public and out in the open. Macri killed driving down the road, Nick Jr killed outside his construction site, Nick Sr in his house, Cuntrera outside his business but then Renda gets kidnapped by men posing as police and just disappeared. The MO is totally different, I can't think of anyone kidnapped and then later appeared dead even. Then there was that article that claimed days before the Renda disappearance, police were warned that a move against a senior member of the Rizzutos is likely to happen. The order either came from New York or
Buffalo and Toronto.
I always found that interesting how they worded that. It wasn't the threat came from New York or Buffalo or Toronto, it was New York or Buffalo AND Toronto. As in Buffalo and Toronto were a faction in the war separate to Montagna and Desjardins.
Another theory is police overheard a meeting/call between New York, Buffalo, and Toronto mobsters and it was clear a move against the Rizzutos was imminent but unclear which group would execute it.
