by 1978, rastelli had heard rumors of carmine galante being the new boss of the bonannos, but would not tolerate it. another caporegime, alphonse "sonny red" indelicato, would be approached by rastelli to organize the murder of carmine galante. indelicato approached santora, whose job was to deliver the message to mobsters dominick napolitano and cesare bonventre and report back to indelicato. since sabella was loyal to galante, it had to happen without sabella knowing it.
