Currently, there isnt and probably never will be any new informant from that era who would be able to shed light on this with direct knowledge of Gotti pulling the trigger.

I think what massino meant was that gotti arranged/ordered the murder. Now thats still makes him a murderer just not personally


Like I have said before, Gotti Sr was the shooter in that murder according to Massino. Massino has no reason to lie about this.Just setting the record straight for everybody.

"John Gotti Senior carried out the shooting of Vito Borelli, the old boyfriend of Paul Castellano's daughter. Borelli had joked about Castellano looking like chicken grower Frank Perdue. "

"Massino yesterday also named John Gotti as the triggerman in the 1975 hit of Vito Borelli, who'd made a crack about mob boss Paul Castellano's resemblance to renowned chicken man Frank Perdue. "
