I don't recall if he did or not.

It's a new morning in America... fresh, vital. The old cynicism is gone. We have faith in our leaders. We're optimistic as to what becomes of it all. It really boils down to our ability to accept. We don't need pessimism. There are no limits.

according to Larry Mazza in his book Persico and his son Allie Boy knew Scarpa had been an informant for twenty years. Is that a violation of the rules of Cosa Nostra?

Thanks for your reply what do you make of this quote from the Devil with the Devil book by Peter Lance on p.184 about the murder of Sal Scarpa 'In naming Philly Boy Paradiso as the shooter in the Sal Scarpa murder, Clemente claims that Greg Scarpa Sr. was behind his own brother’s rubout, because at that point in January 1987 Sal “told someone that he thought Greg was an informant.' also Paradiso is mentioned in this article as one of the informants in the Colombo crime family https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/articl ... esses.html
