How about separate Wikipedia pages for Bonanno Capo Gerrard Chili, and Luchese Capo Mike Salerno. An article on Salerno would include some discussion of when authorities found him in his trunk at the airport in the early 1990s. An article on Chili would include discussion on his recent release from custody, following his arrest in South Florida in the stolen goods case "Operation Coldwater." 206.192.35.125 (talk) 14:35, 13 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
In this section, the final paragraph states "On December 10, 1979, Farace pleaded guilty to first-degree manslaughter. The state had accepted his manslaughter plea rather than go through the uncertainty and expense of a capital murder trial." However, it should be noted that New State did not have the death penalty at that time. And so Farace could not have possibly been considered for capital punishment. It wasn't until 1995 when Governor George Pataki signed into law reinstitution of the death penalty. In 2004 the N.Y.S. Court of Appeals ruled that the death penalty violated the state constitution and a moratorium has been established as the legal standard since. So the death penalty has not even been implemented in the execution of a sentence in New York State since 1963.
