Gotti's tenure as Capo or as he really was for a time (a term which he hated) "Acting Capo". He cursed Carlo and Paul for creating these "Acting" positions and actually wanted Fatico to go to jail so he could be official. In jail for most of the early to mid 70s up until 77. Gene was acting for Fatico and was made in 76 before John who was made in 77. From 77 to 85 John was just a standard Capo, degenerate gambler but always paid his debts, got most of his income from the drug business though not involved himself. Made key contacts of up and coming soldiers on the rise like Joey Massino and Sonny Black. Was a Queens guy around JFK but was jealous of Jimmy Burke who wasn't made but a huge earner which Gotti never was. Gotti was a born leader though and Dellacroce took a shine to him. Nothing stands out during his reign as Capo, he went to Florida in the late 70s to take out Tony Plate as a favor to Neil Dellacroce which further endeared him to Neil. His stature grew in the early 80s as a successor to Neil.
