  • After being promoted to Capo by former boss Phil Amari, LaRasso and reputed Underboss Frank Majuri attended the infamous 1957 Apalachin Meeting, as the only ones representing the newly recognized New Jersey crime family. Amari himself did not attend, as he reportedly retired due to family rivalry later that year, and was replaced by Nicholas Delmore. Around this time LaRasso was promoted to underboss of the North Jersey rackets. He was a prominent member of Building Laborer's Union Local 394 of Elizabeth, New Jersey. After Delmore's health turned ill and later died in 1964, his nephew Sam DeCavalcante became the new boss of the crime family. DeCavalcante doubled the family's income and membership, and promoted Frank Majuri to family Consigliere, as well as keeping LaRasso as Underboss. After DeCavalcante and LaRasso were sent to prison due to federal authorities monitoring conversations between DeCavalcante and LaRasso discussing illegal gambling operations worth more than $20 million a year, Giovanni Riggi, LaRasso's rival, stepped up as Acting boss while DeCavalcante and LaRasso were imprisoned for 5 years. Before going to prison, the Brooklyn based head of the Gambino crime family, Carlo Gambino, asked the DeCavalcante crime family for a favor, to kill Joseph "Joey Surprise" Feola, an associate in the garbage business deemed suddenly unreliable. According to Jerry Capeci, LaRasso lured Feola to a garage, where, according to whispered words picked up on the bug, Feola was strangled, wrapped in a burlap bag and buried. LaRasso later confirmed the hit to Gambino captain James Failla.
