The underworld alliance and business relationship between the Gianolla and Vitale groups continued until Peter Bosco, a Gianolla business partner and close Vitale associate and ally was murdered on the orders of Tony Gianolla. Tony Gianolla and Bosco allegedly had a disagreement over proceeds from their bakery business, which eventually led to a rivalry between the two men and Bosco was eliminated. Animosities over the Bosco killing grew into harsh feelings and eventually conflict between the Gianolla brothers and Vitale, eventually ending their association.
