The expansion of the Vercetti's throughout Vice City made Tommy a very rich, powerful, and influential man, infuriating [[Sonny Forelli]] who was demanding his cut of the profit.

The Vercetti Gang, or at least Tommy Vercetti himself, is presumed to remain in power for an undisclosed time. In [[The Introduction]], the prequel film to [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], Ken Rosenberg, who was also initiated into the Vercetti Gang in 1986, is assumed to have been abandoned by Tommy after Ken is forced into rehabilitation for prolonged cocaine abuse.

This led to Ken's subsequent assignment as a middleman for the [[Leone Family]], the Forelli Family and the [[Sindacco Family]] over [[Caligula's Palace]] along [[The Strip]], [[Las Venturas]] and then employment as an accountant to rapper [[Madd Dogg]]. | The Vercetti Gang, or at least Tommy Vercetti himself, is presumed to remain in power for an undisclosed time.
