Gravano was terribly sensationalized with regards to he being a killer. He really didnt have many murders although he set a few up, mostly his friends. Dibono, milito.
Casso has many more so does pitera and many others.

Dibono he didnt have much to do with from what i understand. Charles Carneglia did that hit and he was under junior gotti who had just become a captain. However i agree milito was set up by him along with others who were his friends/associates

Gravano was spreading fake rumors about Dibono and sealed his fate.

He refused to come to a meeting with gotti....that sealed his fate. Gravano is a scumbag but im just trying to be accurate

Anyway,some news now that sammy is out ?

Been pretty quiet since he got out. I know he has Graves’ disease so who knows the state of his health at this point

Long Live The Rooster.

@ SC, disappointed in you that you had to stoop to name calling. But youre the boss. Feel bad for you too now.

@ Loscalzo, your nonsense about Tampa still holds no weight and Ive been vindicated many times over.

All the best to Nickle, Bensonhurst, Cabrini, and Giacomo. Keep up the good posts in my absence

Didn't Gravano have a massive grudge against Di Bono? Isn't that the guy he physically threatened in front of Castellano during a sit down?

I thought it was Gravano who instigated his murder.

Fiala I believe he personally pulled the trigger on. Di Bernardo murdered by Milito in Gravano's presence IIRC.

yes years before he had a beef. However the reason dibono was killed was because he refused to come to a meeting when John summoned him which embarrassed Gotti. Gotti is caught on tape saying why dibono will die. Charles Carneglia killed him he n October and 1990 at the WTC

Gravano is a real scumbag, but I do agree he is sensationalized. At the bottom of this article is a list of all the murders he admits involvement in. He says the only person he personally pulled the trigger on was Joseph Colucci.

If you read his book he comes across as a dutiful soldier, committing murders just because his boss said so, even if he didn't believe the person should die. But if you look at the facts surrounding some of the murders it looks very suspicious. He's involved with killing Milito, then takes over his business. He's involved in killing DiBono then takes over his business. He's involved in killing DiBernardo then takes over Local 282.

He was involved with killing his brother in law, but his only involvement was being told it was going to happen by Frank DeCicco. If he was going to lie, why bring this up at all? It's not like the Feds had evidence that he was involved. He could have just not mentioned this incident and then he would look better not having his brother in law's name on his kill list.

People say he killed way more than 19 people. But those people are Anthony Casso and Richard Kuklinski. If he was going to lie about his body count, why include his brother in law? Why include some guy called Jack who's last name he doesn't even remember?

Dibono got sent for by Gotti but for whatever reason didn’t come. Pat Conte was his captain if I recall, and manages to get hold of him. I think Pat was actually trying to save his life, cos Sammy says Pat was taking too long whacking him.

On the tapes I think it was Frankie Lo who was heard telling Gotti ‘I predict he’s gonna bring u 50’

And Gotti replied, ‘ but I ain’t gonna take it. ..... know why he’s dying, he’s gonna die because he refused to come in. He didn’t do nothin else wrong’

Then apparently Pat shows up with Louie at the Ravenite and Sammy insisted on whacking him there and then. Mentioned he’d get a gun and they’ll roll him up after

At that Gotti laughed and said relax

Long Live The Rooster.
