Old 1987 Colombo fam. HITS on Carmine Varriale and Frank Santoro

There is nothing official on whether Johnny Cash Azzarelli is made. I have my doubts though; he is a cash cow for the Mafia in that he paid thousands of dollars a month in protection money to acting bosses Joel Cacace and Tommy Gioeli, and inducting him into the crime family could change that.

Here's what I found from Gang Land News on the Varriale/ Santora double-homicide:

[A few months after the June 1987 murders of Enrico and Vincent Carini], Casso, a psychopath who eventually admitted roles in 37 murders, ordered Smith to whack Carmine Varriale, a Luchese associate against whom Casso had some kind of a grudge, sources said.
On Friday, Sept. 3, Smith got word that Varriale, 31, was a few blocks from his Bath Beach, Brooklyn home. He, along with his father, Frank Sr. and his cousin Michael Cilone, caught up to Varriale in front of the Bath Ave. Dry Cleaning and Tailoring Shop at 1508 Bath Ave., and shot him dead, according to court papers and law enforcement sources.
Bonanno associate Frank Santora, 51, who had just gotten out of prison after a six year stint for a $12 million swindle of legendary Sheepshead Bay restaurateur Frederick Lundy, was walking with Varriale and also killed.

[Joseph Testa and Anthony Senter] were part of a hit team in the 1987 double murder for which Frank Smith is awaiting trial, according to FBI reports obtained by Gang Land.
[…]
Testa and Senter were poised on one end of a block as Smith waited on the other for intended victim, Luchese mobster Carmine Varriale, to leave a Bath Beach social club near Smith's home, according to an FBI interview of turncoat Luchese gangster Frank Gioia Jr.
When Varriale and associate Frank Santora "exited the club they came down the block towards Smith (and) Smith began shooting Varriale and when he did Santora started towards him so he killed Santora as well," said Gioia, who said Smith and Zappola told him about the hit.
