Mama Gotti goes wild: wails 'Why don't you just ki

Mama Gotti's had it.

"Why don't you just kill him now!," the matriarch of the Gotti clan yelled at Judge Kevin Castel at the end of a hearing for her son John A. (Junior) Gotti in Manhattan Federal Court.

"They're trying to kill him before trial," she said. "These are the good guys? God help us."

Victoria Gotti erupted after Castel shot down Junior's request to have a second lawyer assist in his defense when he goes to trial on conspiracy charges in September.

"They fight like little b------, instead of men," Mrs. Gotti said after the hearing.

It will mark the fourth time that Gotti has faced down the feds in the past four years.

All three previous trials ended in mistrials.

Gotti looked noticeably slimmer than his last appearance before Castel.

"I'm feeling good today," he told Castel.

Not that good, said his lawyer Charles Carnesi, who contended his client needs to receive treatment for a recurrence of kidney stones, which have become infected.

Radio host Curtis Sliwa offered a remedy for Gotti's medical condition.

"I'd be more than happy to break up his kidney stones with a nice therapeutic massage," Sliwa said, flashing a coy smile.

Sliwa was shot twice in 1992 as he tried to jump out the window of a cab whose doors had been rigged shut by Gotti henchmen, prosecutors say.

The mob scion had grown testy over Sliwa's on-air rants about the Gotti clan after his father's racketeering conviction earlier that year.

Enough already with her. She married a mass fucking murderer and, quite possibly, gave birth to another. Her rants should be taken with a grain of salt.

This coming from a woman who's husband killed many a "good guy?" From a mother who's son went around with a gang of guys bullying innocent people?

From a woman who's husband and son fought like little b---------,usually only fighting a lopsided in their favor fight!

I can understand a mother trying to protect and defend her son. It's her child and it's natural.

But considering what the men in her life have done to other mothers and their sons, she should think about how ridiculous she sounds and quiet down.

Such hypocricy!

Whatever happened to the good old days when Italian Mamas stayed at home and cooked macaroni and gravy all day?!?

That's the problem here Mark. Mama Gotti is NOT Italian!

I wonder if there are provisions in RICO or other organized crime related federal statutes regarding one's knowing or suspected acceptance of ill-gotten (there's a legal term for this that escapes me)goods, services, or cash

Do you mean "criminally receiving stolen goods"? That's usually a state rap.
If Mama Gotti were listed as an employee of one of the Gambino Family's criminal fronts, it's possible she could be prosecuted under RICO if the front is identified as a "Racketeer Influenced Criminal Organization."

Thanks for the info, Don Cardi...I didn't know Mama G was not a paisan. Maybe if she would have stood up and screamed like that 30 years ago, Junior wouldn't be where he is today?

I thought she was? her maiden name was Digregorio?

What do people think of Curtis Sliwa?

Interview with Mama Gotti...seems fairly recent?

Curtis Sliwa from the guardian angels? Wasn't he considered a vigilante? What ever happened to him?

he still has a radio show and is still generally a loser at last check

Who is the guy interviewing Mama Gotti in my above post? Is he like a NY "Geraldo" type of reporter or something? I think she calls him "Bobbo" or "Poppo" or something? East coasters, this question is for you...

Pablo Guzman, a local NY reporter.

That's a few years ago, right after Junior's last mistrial.

Thanks, PB. I've never seen Mama G until I came upon this interview by accident.

Anyone else hear "Twilight Zone" music?

Doo doo doo doo dooo dooo doo doo doo.

Don Cardi, I remember hearing that the kids were only half and figured that she wasn't Italian but I thought she was orignally with a last name of Digregorio?

nope digregorio is jewish

Ahhhh! Thank you Dapper_Don!

Sorry but that's not true. The kids of John and Victoria Gotti are 75% Italian and 25% Jewish. Check it out on The biography of Junior......

Also the book mobstar talks about mama Victoria being half Italian on her mothers side and half Jew on her fathers side. Her real father died when she was 2 years old and she later took her step fathers last name.....

She's half Italian 4 sure............

I believe Mama Gotti is Russian Jew if I remember correctly

She's half Russian Jew. Pick up the book underboss about the life of Sammy Gravano. In there it talks about mama Victoria being of Italian and Jewish ancestry.

The book mob star is another book that brings up her Italian and Jewish heritage.

That's funny, that book is where I read about her being half-russian jew

Non lo capisco.

It's hard to tell if you're believing me or them? But I know what I read. The mother of Victoria, John, Frankie (RIP) and Peter is mixed with Napolitano and Hebrew blood. Her name is Victoria just like her daughter.

No, I'm not debating you at all. I'm just pointing out the irony in the fact that I'm incorrect even when I got the info out of the book that you are using to correct me, that's all

Maybe German_Italian read the same book.

G_I is my brother's account, I had accidently forgot to turn off the auto-login after his last visit so I made the initial post about John Gotti's wife.

Well "book is where I read" does not make much sence.

Nope........
