Lesser known Gotti's

Post by JakeTheSnake630 »

I know Richard and Vincent were in the life in the past, but I wonder what their pull and stature is like these days. I know the Gotti name isn't what it once was. Would love to hear some thoughts.

I think the only Gotti who is still in good standing is Gene.

Thats kind of what I figured, and I'm sure Gene is laying low. He had a ton of money on the street for decades, you would think he lives some what comfortably. Theres also that grandson who was working with Asaro and Bonannos (car fire). Do you think the Gambino's shun anyone with that last name now?

I would imagine they are all on the shelf except Gene. He will always have to lay low because of his name alone he's an instant target for the feds and the amount of attention he gets is ridiculous like when Cali was killed every news outlet was running with the story that Gene was taking over the family.

was it true that vinny gotti or richard gotti had a job doing grounds crew at yankee stadium? i remember reading that somewhere and thought that was pretty cool. awesome gig

gene borello always talks about how much of a joke the gotti name had became in ozp/hb but in the same breath will say he had john III working for him as a member of his crew. on top of that the young kid had a legit biz and was making a lot of money with pills. who knows

I bet Richard and his sons are still in good standing. The brother Vincent did some shady stuff. He proposed that dude who say he was gay and flipped. And we never heard a peep from him again. I thought he would be famous a made guy who is a member of the gambino family and flips because he was gay. TV movie like you read about. But what if it was all a lie to get the judge to go lenient on him for shooting a innocent businessman man for Vincent gotti... pulled a fast one. Hes probaly back with his wife and kids living in Arizona

I believe Richard and his son are in decent standing. One of them might be a skipper or acting. I think the son recently got out of jail Richard Jr? But im really not sure. The one working with the Bonannos was Pete's boy. That's John's Son not brother. I heard Pete only dabbled in selling dope i know he still lives in the same house hus dad owned in Howard Beach. It was raised when the grandson got popped and he got the book thrown at him.

i had the pleasure(if you want to call it that) to be around vinny around the time he got made and the whole shooting of the sapienza guy(who by the way is a scumbag lowlife who used to pray on the 15-16 year old girls he had working the counter.) he is on the shelf and out on long island. he never earned. sold coke, couldnt go an hour without smoking some weed. was extremely violent. John sr banished vinny for a reason. Pete made him so he could have strength in numbers because the guys on the street had no respect for him. i remember vinny constantly threatening civilians. loudest guy in the bar always telling half ass stories. had some bar hag he would shack up with in ozone park. i did some work on her house for him. real skeavy. he def killed that waitress in the motel high on crack too. id bet everything i have it wasnt Alite it was Vinny. he even used to hint at it and other things. real idiot. they want nothing to do with him but i wouldnt be suprised if he still leans on the name and button to non wiseguys. he will take advantage till he dies.
