The gunman wanted to date Cali's niece.. she was inside the house when the murder occurred. US World Herald are actually pretty decent, they were one of the few that didn't finger Gene Gotti.
Who, media or feds, "fingered" Gene Gotti as his killer?
There is a difference between hypothesising and being accusatory.
Gotti is a criminal in the same crime family who was released 6 months before the highest profile mob murder in approximately thirty years.
You would have to be a moron to think his name wouldn't be thrown around in the aftermath of something like this.
By all means if he had left prison and started a new career as a shoemaker like Daniel Day-Lewis then it would be strange, but he continued being active in mob activities behind bars, and it's common knowledge that he's carried on where he left off since being released.
Of course all of this would be irrelevant if that rat, Junior Gotti, and his sister weren't constantly keeping the name alive in the media year after year.
They have no right to complain about the press bringing the name Gotti into the spotlight when they are the primary reason the Gotti name still resonates. It's a marketing tool for them at this stage.
