More on The John A Gotti Arrest
















John A. Gotti was arrested at his Long Island home early Tuesday morning on federal racketeering and murder conspiracy charges tying him to three murders, including a storied mob killing authorized by his father, according to a person briefed on the case. 


Mr. Gotti, 44, was taken into custody by the F.B.I. at his Oyster Bay home, and was expected to be arraigned in Manhattan federal court later in the day, the person said. The charges, brought by federal prosecutors in Tampa, Fla., accuse Mr. Gotti, whose late father was the head of the Gambino organized-crime family, of playing a role in the three murders, committed in the late 1980s and early ’90s.

At least two other men — Michael Finnerty and David D’Arpino — were also arrested on Tuesday and charged with racketeering in connection with the case, the person said. Mr. Gotti was also charged with narcotics conspiracy, the person said.

A lawyer for Mr. Gotti, Seth Ginsberg, said, “We’re confident that there is no strength to the allegations and that he will prevail once again.”

Mr. Ginsberg said that his client would probably transported to Tampa quickly for arraignment there in United States District Court.





He added, "I think Herman Melville already wrote this story,” referring to the government’s persistent pursuit of Mr. Gotti, who has been tried three times before, always ending in mistrials. Federal authorities say Mr. Gotti served for a time as the acting boss of the Gambino family, but at each of the trials, Mr. Gotti insisted that he had left the Mafia life.

In September 2005, after a six-week federal trial that included charges that he ordered the June 1992 kidnapping of Curtis Sliwa, the founder of the Guardian Angels and WABC radio talk-show host, a divided jury failed to reach verdicts on three charges — kidnapping, racketeering and extortion and conspiracy — and voted not guilty on a fourth charge of securities fraud.




A retrial on the three unresolved charges ended in a mistrial in March 2006 when, after hearing from more than a dozen witnesses, the jury deadlocked for a second time.






Prosecutors made a third attempt in in September 2006, but after a six-week trial, jurors again failed to reach a verdict, though they said they believed Mr. Gotti was guilty of organizing the kidnapping of Mr. Sliwa. At that point, the prosecutors, lacking any new evidence, chose not to try him a fourth time in the case.

The latest charges, leading to the arrest on Tuesday, involve the 1990 shooting of a Gambino soldier and construction contractor, Louis DiBono, who was found shot seven times — with four bullets to his head — slumped in a Cadillac sedan in the parking garage of the World Trade Center.

The elder Mr. Gotti, who was convicted of murder and racketeering in federal court in Brooklyn in 1992 and sentenced to life in prison, was found guilty of authorizing the killing of Mr. DiBono, along with four others. Mr. Gotti died in prison in 2002 at age 61.

Jurors at his trial heard the elder Mr. Gotti, whose speech was often punctuated with expletives, boasting that Mr. DiBono was killed because he ignored orders to report to him.

“He’s going to die because he refused to come in when I called,” the elder Mr. Gotti said.


John "Junior" Gotti arrested for Murder - Will the Trial go ahead?
















John “Junior” Gotti, a suspected Mafia boss who has repeatedly been acquitted in trials after juries failed to agree a verdict, was charged today with offences including murder.

Federal authorities arrested the 44-year-old businessman at his home at Oyster Bay, Long Island, on several conspiracy charges,  


including three murders in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The arrests followed an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in New York and Tampa, Florida, according to James Margolin, an FBI spokesman.

A separate indictment charges five other men with racketeering. It alleges some of them were involved with Mr Gotti in one of the three New York murders, according to a law enforcement official official. It also alleges a fourth killing in New York, not linked to Mr Gotti.

Mr Gotti and two other suspects arrested in New York are expected to appear in Manhattan federal court today for a removal hearing. At least one other man has been arrested in Florida.

Charles Carnesi, Mr Gotti’s lawyer, said he had not yet spoken with his client or seen the charges, but noted these were the latest of many accusations.

Charles Carnesi, Mr Gotti’s lawyer, said he had not yet spoken with his client or seen the charges, but noted these were the latest of many accusations.

Federal prosecutors announced at the time that they were giving up, and Mr Gotti said he had long since retired from his life of crime.

The most recent occasion was in 2006 when a judge declared a mistrial because jurors were deadlocked. Two previous trials also were declared void after juries failed to reach a verdict. In all three trials, Mr Gotti said he had quit the Gambino crime family after taking control from his father, "Dapper Don" John J Gotti. Gotti senior was also known as the “Teflon Don” after escaping conviction three times.

The elder Gotti was eventually convicted of racketeering charges and died in prison in 2002.
