It does make me curious if the old Gotti faction benefits from having Pete Gotti as official boss. There must be some people in the organization who prefer having Gotti in the position even if Gotti himself has little influence.
You'd think he would have a larger following in Howard Beach especially, but perhaps all of his family's media antics and their departure from the life might have ruined that, especially since mobsters themselves have been caught on tape acknowledging that John Gotti would be rolling over in his grave over what his family ended up doing.
Regarding reality TV show "Growing Up Gotti," Colombo soldier Ralph Scopo Jr. said in Christmas of 2004 that he was "so embarrassed," for his late friend John Gotti's family, he said he couldn't talk about it. "It's one of the most disgusting, insulting shows" on television, said John Yannucci, the longtime right-hand-man of Genovese captain Ciro Perrone in the same conversation, according to a report about the discussion written by FBI agent John Penza.
