DiLeonardo discussed this same story at trial- Joe Watts went to the restaurant and met up with DiLeonardo, Fat Dom and Jack D'Amico (who was present) when the order was given. You can read the testimony here- http://mafiahistory.us/nw-dileop02.html
Q. And this prolific murderer, Joe Watts, what did he ask from you?
A. I was in a club with Fat Downs Club in Staten Island with Jackie and the rest of our crew. Joe Watts came and asked for Jackie, and Dom, and myself to step outside; he had something to tell us. And then he proceeded to tell us that, coming from the boss, John, we had to do a piece of work.
This is important because DiLeonardo would know enough about the politics not to tell his capo if he had been told not to. That would have landed him in hot water as well as D'Amico. Foppiano and another guy even testified to this and all three men have the story story which runs counter to Gravano.

Minor detail but true history is true history.
Interesting find. Given this it would be Watts that brought D'Amico in on the Weiss murder conspiracy.

With the possibility that Watts was an FBI informant at the time (1988-1989) it would make sense to bring D'Amico in and that Gravano (if he's telling the thruth) don't know that it was Watts and not DiLeonardo.

Jackie was a brokster that's why. If Jackie had money sammy would have him clipped. Sammy and his businessmen acumen. Is about as accurate as James Caan being Italian
