well yes his own guys. Nobody thought he would of moved against Castellano but he did. It would of been easier killing Gotti, it was not rocket science. The point here is not a question of "should he of been murdered" but why didn't anybody do it sooner.

and yeah I can understand alot of guys liking him and I'm more than aware he enjoyed his time as boss lol but rules are rules. Look at the Mob today. They all ruined it
