Good point. They had a lot more support than Castellano did. I seriously doubt Gotti would have wanted to deal with that fallout. He steered clear of DeMeo for years for that very reason.


Whoah!

Welcome back.

Thank you, kind sir.

@Revis_Knicks.

Nino in Jan 86 or sometime around then before he went to prison in April 86 sent one of his guys and called Gotti to a meeting. How the hell can a captain call a boss to a meeting and not get whacked???? Gotti was furious but didn't whack Nino. John feared Gaggi because he was close to the Sicilian faction or something like that.

Your right Revis; Gotti was afraid of the Cherry Hill Gambino's.... He left those guys alone and let them earn. He even went along with John Stanfa becoming boss because Stanfa was Soo close with the Cherry Hills since the 70's.

@JCrusher.

Gaggi pretty much owned Gotti during the 70's..... Gotti couldn't do nothing to that man or Roy Demeo

Theres a symbolic relationship tho; Gotti was close to Neil; Gaggi was a protege of Paul Castellano.

. Gaggi was the real deal as far as being a tough gangster. Even when he became capo he still went on hits(The eppolitos and George Bynum murders). I don’t have much information on the relationship between Gotti and Gaggi during the 70s and early 80s

Atleast from what I read from Murder Machine, Nino was close to the Gambino hierarchy since the 1950s


Wasn't he the nephew or cousin of Frank Scalise? Guy was Underboss under Anastasia.

. Yeah I know. I simply was talking about any interactions they had. In the Late 70s the Gaggi crew was bigtime. Gaggi was close to Paul and they controlled the Demeo crew who not only were feared killers but tremendous earners

Yup you're right. Anyone know if Gaggi and Gotti ever had any real big interactions?

Was Gaggi against killing DeMeo? That was his protégé and it is said that Gotti would not have done anything to Paul as long as Roy was around. By the time Castellano was murdered, Roy was dead and Gaggi was in jail. Did Sammy ever have an extensive relationship with DeMeo and Gaggi? I would assume not if he was on Gotti’s side.

I think Gaggi was an old school gangster. When Paul ordered Roy killed I doubt Gaggi hesitated at all despite being his capo/mentor. Don’t forget Roy also caused a lot of issues. I know Nino was pissed off at the whole Chris Rosenberg/Dominick Ragucci incident as well as other crazy things that crew did

Gaggi was next on pauls hitlist. He was waiting for the car trial to be over he didnt want the bad publicity during the trial. The cops were pissed nino shot a cop. After Paul was killed sammy was sent to talk to nino and told him how hes lucky pauls dead he was on the hitlist. Thinks Gotti n sammy were recording talking about this after nino died in that ladys apartment

You're right...For a guy with an ego the size of the Empire State Building, he seemed a little insecure when it came to other capable guys !!
