I always thought that's what Gotti was concerned about because such admissions of guilt could be used to establish the Gambino family as a racketeering enterprise.

Gotti didn't want to so that meant that no one else could. But guy's in the family were allowed to plead by then. Junior Gotti, Jackie DAmico, Louis Ricco and others in the late 1990s case took pleas. Pretty sure Nick Corozzo and Lenny DiMaria took one in the 1996 case. Several other members took them in the early 2000s. It was just their bad luck that they were indicted with Peter and he wanted to go to trial.

10/4. I always wondered why Gene Gotti did not plead out
in his heroin case. Would John Gotti really have taken action
against his own brother?

Capeci recently stated that it was gene gotti’s own choice not to plead out . He stated that gene was just as stubborn as his brother and just as passionate when it came to the mob
