Interessting item; however, I have always wondered if there was a
connection between John Gotti and the bombing of the World Trade Center.  

Luckey Luciano and Meyer Lansky and Gotti - all in the family.

There was however, this incident involving a drywall contract at the
World Trade Center.   Now Gotti was in trouble with the feds; he was
also deprived of a fair trial for this guy who testified against him was
given immunity - he under oath admitted to killing 19 people....he was
set free and Gotti went to jail.   Today, John Gotti is alleged to be
dying.   He had also lost his 14 year old son in an accident - maybe one
of those accidents that merited some serious thought.

Regardless - consider the power of some ofo these guys - for instance
Lucky Luciano, sitting in a prison cell wanted out.  No way - the call
to Give us Barabas was not  heard and he was ignored.   He said let me
out and I will stop the sabotage on the docks.....stop and think about
that - SABOTAGE .....answer still no....so the Navy Department woke up
one day and a United States Destroyer lay on its side at the
dock.....and in those days that was no easy endeavor?

Now note this item and this thing about a 15 billion dollar contract
with World Trade Center....now this place had been bombed before but
nothing as of late.   There are federal offices in this center, and
state and local.....so here is an interesting item.....a contract?
Could there have been a double meaning here?   The body of the guy was
found in the World Trade Center parking lot later.

Genevese received a medal from Mussolini...Al Capone said set me free
and I will find the Lindburg baby....

Gotti from his prison cell also is said to have put a million dollar
contract on OJ Simson.   Why - well once there was something to do with
the Buffalo Bills and Gotti lost a mint....but I am wondering, inasmuch
as Gotti is half Jewish it is said - whethre the fact that Cochran
brought 6 Black Moslems to court for bodyguards if this is not what
angered Gotti considering the past history ???  the news media then
turned on OJ too Larry King, Groden and Riveria who very pointedly
reminded us Hey I am Jewish - who the hell cares ...

Nice story here - worth reading it all.   Such patriotism on the part of
Lucky Luciano should not be overlooked.

These guys are hired killers....Meyer Lansky wanted JFK to go to war
over his gambling temples and when he did not - he ordered the hit on
JFK.....he lost billions.

So what was this talk about a billion dollar contract at the World Trade
Center?   Joke - or, was it something else?

And this man admitted killing 19 people and was not charged even with a
parking ticket?   What kind of people do we have in our government?

Gotti's Woes and More Killings

��
Sammy "The Bull" Gravano
More Gravano Notches

Prior to his association with John Gotti, Gravano had been involved in
eight murders over a fourteen-year period.

Since becoming a member of Gotti's inner circle, he played a role in the
deaths of eleven men in six years.

After the murders of Castellano and Bilotti in 1985, the next person on
Gravano's "hit parade" was Nick Mormando. Known as "Nicky Cowboy,"
Mormando became addicted to crack cocaine and, according to Gravano,
became a "renegade" and went "berserk." Joe Paruta shot Mormando in the
back of the head and his body was left in an empty lot. This murder was
followed by the aforementioned slaying of Robert DiBernardo.

In 1987 another member of Gravano's crew, Mike DeBatt, also became
addicted to crack cocaine. DeBatt's father had been close with Gravano
and after his death, Sammy had taken the younger DeBatt under his wing
the same as he had done with Joey D'Angelo. In this case it was DeBatt's
wife who went to Gravano for help. Sammy responded by having young Mike
murdered while he tended bar at Tali's. Gravano claimed, "This just tore
my fucking insides out." Gravano doesn't mention how it affected the
DeBatt family.

The following year Gravano was involved in three murders. First was
Louis Milito in March 1988. Gravano received permission from Gotti to
kill his old Ramper gang partner. Milito had badmouthed Gravano's
decision to promote Louis Vallario to crew chief when Sammy was named
acting consigliere. Next was Francesco Oliverri in May. Oliverri, a
pasta factory employee and father of three, had killed a man in a
fistfight during an altercation in an apartment building hallway. The
victim had been a member of John Gambino's crew. Gambino went to Gotti
for revenge.

Gotti gave the assignment to Gravano with orders to use Robert Bisaccia,
a "soldier" in a New Jersey crew that the family was looking to promote.
On May 3, while Gravano sat in a stolen getaway car, Bisaccia shot
Oliverri in the head as he sat in his car outside his home.

The last murder of 1988 was Wilfred "Willie Boy" Johnson. Gravano
explains, "John discussed how it should go, using me to bounce off ideas
about the best way to do it. That was my only involvement." Johnson's
murder was actually carried out by members of the Bonanno family on
August 29, 1988.

Thomas Spinelli was the only entry on the Gravano murder log for 1989.
Spinelli was a member of James Failla's crew and had recently testified
before a grand jury, an indiscretion punishable by death according to
Gravano. Spinelli was about to be called again when Gravano arranged his
murder inside a Brooklyn factory owned by the son of a Gambino Family
member. In the mid-1990s James Failla, Dan Marino and Joe Watts would
all be sent to prison for their role in this murder.

The last two murders Gravano was involved in came in 1990. The first was
Eddie Garofalo � not to be confused with Gravano's brother-in-law
Edward Garafola. A demolition contractor known as "Cousin Eddie," in
1985 he illegally demolished four buildings in Times Square in the
middle of the night. On August 9 Garofalo was shot to death by Gravano
crewmembers in front of his Brooklyn home.

The nineteenth and final murder attributed to Gravano was onetime
business partner and later nemesis Louis DiBono in October 1990.
Gravano, who had been envious of DiBono's drywall business, describes
the turn of events:

"He was still robbing the family and I asked for permission to take him
out. But John had a meeting with DiBono, and DiBono told John that he
had a billion dollars of drywall work that was coming out of the World
Trade Center. John bit, hook, line and sinker, and refused my request.

John said he would handle DiBono personally and become his partner. But
DiBono was up to his old tricks � double-dealing. He had obviously
been bullshitting John. So when John called Louie in for meetings to
discuss their new partnership, DiBono didn't show up. John was
humiliated.

"This meant an automatic death penalty. John gave the contract to
DiBono's captain, Pat Conte. Conte botched an ideal opportunity to kill
DiBono. Then, as Gotti grew increasingly impatient, Conte explained that
the problem now was trying to corner DiBono again. Whenever a meeting
with him was arranged, DiBono never appeared.

"It was a joke, what was going on. I couldn't help laughing to myself. I
told John why didn't Pat simplify everything. Just call Louie up and
tell him to hang himself. Ten months went by. John looks like an
asshole. He was too embarrassed even to ask me for help."

Another contractor, unaware of DiBono's predicament, innocently provided
Gravano with DiBono's whereabouts. Gravano quickly relayed the
information to Gotti and within days, DiBono's body was found inside his
car parked in the World Trade Center parking lot.
