Be- fore betraying their crime leader as government witnesses, Competiello and Calabro had been loyal dogs.

Little Dino, meanwhile, was further ingratiating himself into the Brooklyn underworld, making himself a valuable asset for Big Dino. Obviously, Maragni's clout in the family was such that he could get away with such a move.
