By August 1982 Anthony Accetturo served as Abate's Acting Captain.
Late that month crew member Joseph LaMorte was inducted into the Lucchese Family under Accetturo's sponsorship.
CW Alfonso D'Arco, who was made in the same ceremony and who subsequently rose to Acting Boss before defecting in 1991, later testified: "Joe LaMorte was sponsored by the Jersey faction, his Captain at that time was Anthony Accetturo [who was] an Acting Captain at that time...[The] old captain was Joe Abate, but Accetturo was doing all the running around. Joe was old."
By the mid-to-late 1980s Abate stepped down as Captain and was officially succeeded by Accetturo.
