Its not hush money but gotti was on wiretap at the ravenite in 1990 how he had to pay 100k each for appeals for joe piney and joe gallo his one time underboss and consig. Maybe he felt bad cause he made them go to trial when they probaly could have negotiated sweet plea deals cause there age probly 5 yrs or less. Think they got 15 n 10. Old law like you do 1/3 or 1\2
