Francesco Olivieri

This was one of the murders that took place during the Gotti era. I know that it was done as retaliation for Olivieri beating to death a Gambino member. I know that Gravano organized it and i think was the driver BUT does anybody know who Olivieri killed? Ive looked through files of Gravanos cooperation and articles that name the murder but they never name the Gambino member who was killed

"Gravano testified that the murder was retaliation against Oliveri for his involvement in the murder of Giuseppe Gambino, a member of John Gambino's “crew.”"

James Comey was the prosecutor on the case btw

Interesting, didn't know that re: Comey.

/quote] Thanks. I knew john gambino was involved so that makes sense

Robert Bisaccia (AKA Bobby Cabert) was the actual shooter.

Edit- sorry misread the question. As mentioned it was Gambino he beat to death.
