In 1979 Testa, Salvatore (Chuckie) Merlino and Robert (Bobby) Lumio murdered 31-year-old drug dealer Michael (Coco) Cifelli.  He was murdered for selling drugs to the son of Frank Monte, a capo from Cinnaminson Township, New Jersey.  Frank served under Phil Testa and later Nicky Scarfo.  He oversaw illegal gambling operations in Atlantic City and New Jersey for the crime family.  Michael Cifelli was gunned down by Testa and Salvatore (Chuckie) Merlino as he was talking on the phone in a telephone booth just inside a bar, Priori's, at 10th and Wolf Streets in the Point Breeze neighborhood of Philadelphia.  Monte was later promoted to be consigliere in 1981 by Nicky Scarfo.  Monte was murdered by a sniper rifle in 1982 on the orders of Riccobene.
