That's true. I knew a lawyer that did money laundering for the Tampa family. They did a hit on him. Survived a major tax investigation and even had the evidence fixed so his killing looked like an accident.
Weither you like Gotti or not you cannot deny that he is a gangster through and through. He said who he was and he lived it. He lived a certain way and stood by that. A lot of people respect Gotti including me because that is rare. Its rare that someone is what they say they are. Someone who dont bs about who and what he does. Someone who dont budge on what he believes in. That is so rare because people are fake af ane are all about something until they hit hard times.
Holy shit🤣 Your fuckin profile picture speaks volumes about you and your pathetic mentality. Typical trailer park honky who thinks he's "about that street life" What a joke
The fact that people love Sammy and other rats is cos they know that they’d do what Gravano did and they hate the fact that they’re not like Gotti so they put him down. It’s sooo pathetic that the guy who went away in silence to suffer is the guy who they blame and attack and claim is the one who destroyed the mob instead of their hero who LITERALLY RATTTED OUT everyone he’d known his entire life😂 It’s so unbelievable but then again these are the same generation that do t even know what a woman is now! 🤦🏻

So no, it’s not that difficult at all, if you’re capable of digging a little into the bigger picture..

“ I taught this guy how to talk . You know what he says when he wakes up and rolls over and sees his Wife in the morning ? He says “ Hiya John “ 😂😂😂😂 Absolute gold . He was a funny funny fcuker
Gotti was a ego driven mail room clerk who shot his way to the top of ibm,exxon mobil,disney,amazon,apple he had no business being boss of any top organization however still remember gotti the night big paulie was killed it was some ride from dec 1985 to june 2002 thanx john r.i.p who were truly ole nyc.
Say what you will..JOHN GOTTI went down without dealing. Without giving the feds a dam thing. He was just to public of a profile, they had to take him down. There was no choice or the feds would have lost any credit they had going. He basically gave them no choice but to keep coming time after time until they won. He died rough. He died like a real man though. For that he's one of the greatest for sure.
Not really...gotti didn't give the feds or prosecutors or the DA anything because they wouldn't make any deals with him...if they offered him a deal he would've went for it and spoke...but they didn't give him the benefit purposely because of his constant arrogance and maching of the government for trying multiple times to convict him...when he beat his charges the first couple of times he is supposed to walk quietly not throw it in the district attorney and feds face...they wanted gotti for a long time..they wanted him from when he first hit Castellono....if given the chance he would've cooperated
@@MM-fi3mm yeah. The US federal government doesn’t just let defendants quietly walk away after public beating them in court. 😂😂😂. Are we talking about the real world???
Bruce Cutler Always knew that John Gotti was a mob boss. In fact, Cutler was caught on tape talking with Gotti straight with no chaser. I’m surprised Bruce Cutler wasn’t disbarred. Anyway, John Gotti was a mob boss and he Loved Every Second of it. That’s what the public loves about him, he was unapologetic about the life he lived and he died in jail after a life of crime without “Too Much Complaining”. Although there is a video of him, in jail, talking to his daughter Victoria and in that video he is complaining, but, it was about not getting pictures and visits from his family members and by family, I mean his Wife, Sons and Daughters and Grandchildren. At the end, he was just another man trying to make his way in the world. Take care.
What does your client say about being accused of being the boss of the gambino’s, “no comment” so he doesn’t deny it? “No comment” man Luciano must be rolling in his grave LMAO 🤣🐐
Luciano lived the high life, very public, big spender, very flashy. He wore the most expensive suits and shoes you could buy, a diamond watch, the fanciest cars. He reign as boss was as short as Gotti's.
Oh really? He died before Castellano was even hit in 1985, so how exactly would that have worked? His leadership during the early-1980s would have set them up to be the most powerful four decades later? Wow, people make some very silly comments on here.
@@jimmymcgill8412 are you thick?? He’s saying if Mr Neil would have been made boss after Gambino died, instead of Big Paul. And I agree. You wouldn’t have had this rift in the Gambino family that lead to the boss and underboss being assassinated. Neil would have been boss until his passing, and then I wonder who would have gotten the top spot? DiCceo?? Gotti?? Sammy?? An old timer??
The reality the best guy for the job got killed. Carlo Gambino wanted to move the family more into corporate and higher business type stuff. Frankie DIcicco was more that type of guy but he wasn't chosen.
@@therookiesplaybook no bro they paid off on juror so the best case scenario is a hung juror,well he won that trial straight up so they didn't need to it was just security idiot
@@Geezuse It was. Some Castellano loyalists conspired with other families to kill DeCicco. They probably considered him a traitor, as he too was a Castellano loyalist, and totally, completely trusted by Castellano. DeCicco used this trust to make the hit happen.
When you watch the press conference announcing the verdict you can see how personal they take this... All joking around when they talk about putting someone away for life, be a little more professional... Also it's funny how all of sudden the jury was right and so was the verdict when it's in your favor... Thats the problem with the justice system, it's all about winning. Not getting the truth and accepting the verdict ( no matter what it is ).. If you don't like it, then do better as a lawyer
Agree 100%. Unfortunately it not like NYPD Blue where the police want to get the bad guy off the streets to protect the citizens. It’s about closing cases. If you watch any reality police interrogations or investigation s, they spend 99% of their time trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. If it doesn’t fit, hammer it in.
I wanted to slap those from the state when announcing the guilty verdict. All bigger scumbags than Gotti was perceived to be. Fuckin cocksuckers. Smiling and laughing.
It’s a game to them, and they can stack the deck pretty massively in their favor at times. They can also very often become more focused on convictions, especially high profile ones, and politics in general, at the cost equality and civil rights.
@ 28.43, I can't believe they insulted the most famous gangster of all time Al Capone by saying Gotti would have had greater status if he was acquitted , the man was an absolute clown never a gangster.
Easily the weakest well known "boss" there was. This man hemorrhaged the family's money to be flamboyant, degenerately gamble, and pay exorbitant fees to his lawyer. Lawyer fees that existed because he couldnt keep his face out of the camera to begin with. He would order all of his underlings to meet at the Ravenite club just so everyone could make an appearance for cameras. Just to be flashy, and show he was the boss. He was entirely incompetent, and had no idea how to run the technical side of a crime organization. Castellano to Gotti was like a college Professor being killed so a 5th grader could teach the class and eat candy all day. That's why everyone was pissed off about it, and why it wasn't hard for Gravano to betray him. At that point it was a joke anyway.
And that’s why he lasted just a couple years. Unfortunately, fame and attention took over the mob. Same with the philly mob after Bruno was murdered. Narcissists gained control of the families who were extremely incompetent and couldn’t keep a low profile and committing too much violence. Now the mafia is dead
Actually he was very smart ,but guess what they all go down ,anybody in cosa nostra got indicted and sent away ,the government had a vendetta with these guys ,look at the chin who walked around in a bathrobe he died in federal custody
This might be a stupid question, but how did Gotti get away with the hit on Castellano? When Angelo Bruno was hit, the commission was pissed and people paid (i know that's philly, but still). I don't get why there weren't more attempts on his life for whacking a boss? I know about the car with Frank DiCicco, but you would think the top guys could do better than that. Like, that's it for hitting a boss?
This guy saying the Castellano faction was killer of his under boss they all fell in line after Paul died Paul's side were not killers and thugs like the Gotti side had no shot but to follow Gotti.
Why is that Gotti always responded to questions from the media with one-liners? Because Gotti knew that if he responded with more than one-liners the world would realize he was a functional illiterate.
They are not outlaws in that The Mafia are insular. They only deal within their own. They don't pay taxes and don't have real, lawful, jobs. They have concrete, waste management, gambling and prostitution rackets among others and do not pay into our system of government. They take what we have and keep for themselves, example, no show jobs. That's why they have "earners". The monies they earn go upward as tribute to capos, captains, underbosses then to the head. But not outward. An insular pyramid scheme that works only for them and not the American people. The Mafia, technically, are a strong argument against open border immigration for whatever administration that's in the White House in DC. Thus, the disconnect between mafioso on the street and, say, Paul Castellano. John Gotti was a street thug. PC was a businessman out of touch with the trenches. JG wasn't feeling that so Mr. Castellano had to go. Power is as power does. So, outlaws, no they were not but good action anyway, if that makes sense, lol.
Just when i thought that i was out and would be going to bed early tonight, your magnificent videos pulled me back in!!!

They ruined my city crime is through the roof wouldn't happen if Gotti was running shit
They took a dangerous and powerful individual off the streets. They decapitated one of, if not the largest crime family in the country.
Gotti was a ego driven mail room clerk who shot his way to the top of ibm,exxon mobil,disney,amazon,apple he had no business being boss of any top organization however still remember gotti the night big paulie was killed it was some ride from dec 1985 to june 2002 thanx john r.i.p who were truly ole nyc.
Those reporters ask a lot of questions.
Omg I love his jackets
Say what you will..JOHN GOTTI went down without dealing. Without giving the feds a dam thing. He was just to public of a profile, they had to take him down. There was no choice or the feds would have lost any credit they had going. He basically gave them no choice but to keep coming time after time until they won.
He died rough. He died like a real man though. For that he's one of the greatest for sure.
He was a public figure BECAUSE of the FBI and media
Not really...gotti didn't give the feds or prosecutors or the DA anything because they wouldn't make any deals with him...if they offered him a deal he would've went for it and spoke...but they didn't give him the benefit purposely because of his constant arrogance and maching of the government for trying multiple times to convict him...when he beat his charges the first couple of times he is supposed to walk quietly not throw it in the district attorney and feds face...they wanted gotti for a long time..they wanted him from when he first hit Castellono....if given the chance he would've cooperated
@@MM-fi3mmJOE MASSINO 😂😂😂
Projecting. Is what your doing. Lol
@@MM-fi3mm yeah. The US federal government doesn’t just let defendants quietly walk away after public beating them in court. 😂😂😂. Are we talking about the real world???
Gotti’s lawyer must’ve felt foolish after Sammy testified and he came to realize that Gotti was in fact a mob boss.
Bruce Cutler Always knew that John Gotti was a mob boss. In fact, Cutler was caught on tape talking with Gotti straight with no chaser. I’m surprised Bruce Cutler wasn’t disbarred. Anyway, John Gotti was a mob boss and he Loved Every Second of it. That’s what the public loves about him, he was unapologetic about the life he lived and he died in jail after a life of crime without “Too Much Complaining”. Although there is a video of him, in jail, talking to his daughter Victoria and in that video he is complaining, but, it was about not getting pictures and visits from his family members and by family, I mean his Wife, Sons and Daughters and Grandchildren. At the end, he was just another man trying to make his way in the world. Take care.
@@charlesbarboza8591 I appreciate the response but my comment was a sarcastic one, just ftr.
@@sonnyblack0870 got cha, 😂🤣
Don't think that came as a shock to Mr Cutler.I think he had a pretty good idea Big John was not a labor organizer!LOL!
Come on he would have already known that
They're not banging on Sammy the Bull to hard at that time because he's still in the middle of snitching on the rest of the 5families 📢📢
What does your client say about being accused of being the boss of the gambino’s, “no comment” so he doesn’t deny it? “No comment” man Luciano must be rolling in his grave LMAO 🤣🐐
Luciano lived the high life, very public, big spender, very flashy. He wore the most expensive suits and shoes you could buy, a diamond watch, the fanciest cars. He reign as boss was as short as Gotti's.
Fun fact : Bruce butler younger brother is George Castanza (seinfeld)
Who's Bruce Butler?
Bruce Cutler wasJohn Gotti's first attorney when feds began prosecutorial charges against him in late 70s and early 80s.
great show !
18:00: Giuliani was right on the money. Clean the streets of NYC.

@@johncampagnola2969 Hey John, take it easy. It’s a fucking joke. Jesus Christ
@@brettadkins7563 sorry haven't had my fruity pebbles yet.
@@johncampagnola2969 understandable
If Neil would have been made boss the Gambinos would still be the most powerful.
Facts my friend 👍
Oh really? He died before Castellano was even hit in 1985, so how exactly would that have worked? His leadership during the early-1980s would have set them up to be the most powerful four decades later? Wow, people make some very silly comments on here.
@@jimmymcgill8412 are you thick??
He’s saying if Mr Neil would have been made boss after Gambino died, instead of Big Paul.
And I agree. You wouldn’t have had this rift in the Gambino family that lead to the boss and underboss being assassinated. Neil would have been boss until his passing, and then I wonder who would have gotten the top spot? DiCceo?? Gotti?? Sammy?? An old timer??
RIC0 would have got him in the end🤣
The reality the best guy for the job got killed. Carlo Gambino wanted to move the family more into corporate and higher business type stuff. Frankie DIcicco was more that type of guy but he wasn't chosen.
Now they have to go after the government system bringing them down to not Just the criminal side right!!!!
Teflon? more like Velcro Don.
The reporter sounds like the history guy? I'm pretty sure it's him.
John gotti was treacherous and dangerous
That’s how bosses become bosses
Do not leave out GOOOOD LOOKING!
SCORPIO ♏️ ALL THE WAY 🦂
I like how Cutler thought he was a great lawyer but they just paid off or threatened jurors.
One case bro and they would of won anyway
@@anthonydelgrosso4818 How could you possibly know that. Why would they tamper with witnesses if they would have won anyway.
@@therookiesplaybook to make it 100 percent why wouldn't u
@@anthonydelgrosso4818 Because you get charged for it. You claimed they would have won anyway.
@@therookiesplaybook no bro they paid off on juror so the best case scenario is a hung juror,well he won that trial straight up so they didn't need to it was just security idiot
It was funny listening to the two reporters pushing and shoving each other
It’s funny they thought that Frank DeCicco’s death was from ppl inside the Gambino family
makes sense at first...Chins smart
@@Geezuse It was. Some Castellano loyalists conspired with other families to kill DeCicco. They probably considered him a traitor, as he too was a Castellano loyalist, and totally, completely trusted by Castellano. DeCicco used this trust to make the hit happen.
@@histguy101 i'm surprised Frankie Decicco trusted Jimmy Brown enough to go to his club they day he was murdered. Even John Gotti ducked him
Do you have something about Boško Radonjić?
How many time's does he say erm
who whistles the godfather tune? was that John?
Tell you what, whoever was court artist sketching Gotti made him look bloody awful, I’d of been fuming if I was Gotti lol.
When you watch the press conference announcing the verdict you can see how personal they take this... All joking around when they talk about putting someone away for life, be a little more professional... Also it's funny how all of sudden the jury was right and so was the verdict when it's in your favor... Thats the problem with the justice system, it's all about winning. Not getting the truth and accepting the verdict ( no matter what it is ).. If you don't like it, then do better as a lawyer
Agree 100%. Unfortunately it not like NYPD Blue where the police want to get the bad guy off the streets to protect the citizens. It’s about closing cases. If you watch any reality police interrogations or investigation s, they spend 99% of their time trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. If it doesn’t fit, hammer it in.
I wanted to slap those from the state when announcing the guilty verdict. All bigger scumbags than Gotti was perceived to be. Fuckin cocksuckers. Smiling and laughing.
@@vincedidiana5781 yea it's called professionalism. It seems like they didn't have any of it at that time...
It’s a game to them, and they can stack the deck pretty massively in their favor at times. They can also very often become more focused on convictions, especially high profile ones, and politics in general, at the cost equality and civil rights.
Gotti was the man but he was no boss
He was a leader my friend
@ 28.43, I can't believe they insulted the most famous gangster of all time Al Capone by saying Gotti would have had greater status if he was acquitted , the man was an absolute clown never a gangster.
Easily the weakest well known "boss" there was. This man hemorrhaged the family's money to be flamboyant, degenerately gamble, and pay exorbitant fees to his lawyer. Lawyer fees that existed because he couldnt keep his face out of the camera to begin with.
He would order all of his underlings to meet at the Ravenite club just so everyone could make an appearance for cameras. Just to be flashy, and show he was the boss. He was entirely incompetent, and had no idea how to run the technical side of a crime organization. Castellano to Gotti was like a college Professor being killed so a 5th grader could teach the class and eat candy all day. That's why everyone was pissed off about it, and why it wasn't hard for Gravano to betray him. At that point it was a joke anyway.
And that’s why he lasted just a couple years. Unfortunately, fame and attention took over the mob. Same with the philly mob after Bruno was murdered. Narcissists gained control of the families who were extremely incompetent and couldn’t keep a low profile and committing too much violence. Now the mafia is dead
Actually he was very smart ,but guess what they all go down ,anybody in cosa nostra got indicted and sent away ,the government had a vendetta with these guys ,look at the chin who walked around in a bathrobe he died in federal custody
Tell me all you know about life without telling me😂😂😂
@@gregchapman6190 that’s exactly right.
@@jillliachris the irony there is you just did the same thing you speak of.
This started the era of the snitch and death to the mob...
yup...Sammy, al d'arco, pete chiodo, Phill leanetti, gaspipe casso
Jesus is the Way
The Messiah
Gotti now rides Lucifer in the Pit.
This might be a stupid question, but how did Gotti get away with the hit on Castellano? When Angelo Bruno was hit, the commission was pissed and people paid (i know that's philly, but still). I don't get why there weren't more attempts on his life for whacking a boss? I know about the car with Frank DiCicco, but you would think the top guys could do better than that. Like, that's it for hitting a boss?
This guy saying the Castellano faction was killer of his under boss they all fell in line after Paul died Paul's side were not killers and thugs like the Gotti side had no shot but to follow Gotti.
It was Vinny the chin not Castellano's men that did that
Exactly @Ron
It was the Chin not Paul’s people.
@@JamesTaylor-gz1lu they say jimmy brown and Danny Marino weren’t loyal to the Gotti faction
Can’t get away with that now.
Why is that Gotti always responded to questions from the media with one-liners? Because Gotti knew that if he responded with more than one-liners the world would realize he was a functional illiterate.
He was pretty successful in his field for a functional illiterate
Those one liners are pretty witty and I guarantee you couldn't come up with them on the spot,pretty impressive
He generally didn't talk to the media at all unless it was private, off camera, off the record
This interviewer believes his shit doesnt stink.
Look at those slimey defence lawyers
Yeah... They are leeches.
Very slimey
Yup but still not as despicable as the prosecution
Lol Roach was gettin high af back then. Wonder if he still around.
Rampino passed away in 2010. Salute 💯

I read that goin to jail saved him because the gotti crew was gonna hit him.
Excellent
I have ZERO faith in our government!
Poor Paul. Yo thanks for the free promo of Sparks Steaks House...
They killed Sr.
Gotti had a 5-6 year run and done and a bad 5-6 year run to top it off... people act like he was an all star like Gigabyte, Gambino, Fat Tony, etc...
What about D N?
Who
Gotti was boss until his death in 2002.
Yea... gigabyte!!.... I don't think they ever got him??
Probably meant gigante
Why are us Americans so obsessed with the "mob" "mafia" " la cosa nostra" or whatever they are called???
Because we love outlaws. Men who challenge the system
I reckon most Americans think they're pieces of shit.
They are not outlaws in that The Mafia are insular. They only deal within their own. They don't pay taxes and don't have real, lawful, jobs. They have concrete, waste management, gambling and prostitution rackets among others and do not pay into our system of government. They take what we have and keep for themselves, example, no show jobs. That's why they have "earners". The monies they earn go upward as tribute to capos, captains, underbosses then to the head. But not outward. An insular pyramid scheme that works only for them and not the American people. The Mafia, technically, are a strong argument against open border immigration for whatever administration that's in the White House in DC.
Thus, the disconnect between mafioso on the street and, say, Paul Castellano. John Gotti was a street thug. PC was a businessman out of touch with the trenches. JG wasn't feeling that so Mr. Castellano had to go. Power is as power does.
So, outlaws, no they were not but good action anyway, if that makes sense, lol.
