The Teflon Don: How John Gotti Ran New York and Lost EverythingIn 1985, John Gotti orchestrated the assassination of Gambino crime family boss Paul Castellano outside Sparks Steak House in Midtown Manhattan, setting off one of the most aggressive FBI investigations in organized crime history. The RICO prosecution that followed resulted in Gotti's 1992 conviction on five counts of murder, racketeering, and extortion, marking the effective end of the old-school New York mob era.What keeps the Gotti story compelling decades later runs deeper than the Brioni suits and tabloid headlines. The real architecture is a kid from the South Bronx who watched his father grind himself into nothing doing legitimate work and decided, very early, that was never going to be him. He built an empire out of that one decision, then made himself the most visible man in New York at precisely the moment the FBI needed someone to make an example of. The Dapper Don was never going to outlast his own myth, and this week we're going all the way in on why.#JohnGotti #DapperDon #GambinoFamily #TrueCrime #OrganizedCrime #AmericanMafia #TrueCrimePodcast🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.
