      At the time of his death, Paul was indicted on 3 separate occasions. 1) In the Gambino case, he was indicted on federal racketeering, extortion, murder, theft, prostitution, and narcotics trafficking.2) In the Commission Trail, he was again indicted on racketeering. 3) Later, he would be indicted for loansharking and tax invasion. If Paul had somehow managed to stay alive, he was going to prison. This was proven, when all the bosses in the Commission Trial were convicted along with other bosses, who would eventually get convicted later like John Gotti, Vincent Gigante, and Joe Massino. Paul would have met the same fate as those bosses, I just mentioned.

      Hi Matthew - thank you for your reply.
      Years ago in NY we had a game where we guessed as to what neighborhood a person came from based on their accent. That game has now disappeared.
      I remember hearing Bernie Sanders speak - immediately I said "Flatbush!" Thought he was from there. But I was wrong - he was from Midwood which is one block away. I was off by one block!
      Years ago here in Minnesota I was introduced to a dude and immediately said to my self that he was a Puerto Rican from East New York in Brooklyn. He did not have the time to chat but came back two weeks later. We had a much longer chat and he told me that, indeed, he was a Puerto Rican from ENY ~ that is where I grew up and recognized the neighborhood accent 1,200 miles away and 20 years after I left the area.
      I have been living in St Paul for nearly 35 years and still speak with a recognizable NY accent. Sadly, such accents are disappearing and you can no longer tell what neighborhood a person comes from in NYC because of all this gentrification and mobilization. The old East New York and Flatbush accents (and others) are disappearing . Sad to say, such losses are irreversible.

      Surprisingly many people seem to not understand this. He was 61 years old when he took over the Gambino family, of course he wasn't gonna still be in the streets shaking people down and planning hijackings. But people who think Paul somehow just stumbled into control of the largest organized crime family in the US forget that he had his first mugshot years before Gotti was born and became Carlo Gambino's right hand man before Gotti turned 18.

      The problem was tho Gotti put a huge target on Italian Mob by thumbing his nose at the government and flossing on TV. Gotti basically helped create the RICO laws that eventually destroyed the mob and they still haven't recovered. In my opinion he should have been whacked after he killed Big Paul to send a message.

    The coverage from Fox5 News began with the opening line - ‘he died on an empty stomach’, which was brutally cold, considering that’s the way dishes are served…lol
    Anyways, Castellano knew like the other family heads, he was doomed and to be imprisoned for life because those indictments were mounting up big time. As there was no way out for him, it was probably a blessing for him to be taken out and not serve life behind bars.
    As soon as Dellicroce has passed, he should have taken out Gotti immediately which would have sent a message to that faction of the family that he’s still the top man and knowing that life imprisonment awaits, he would have appointed Bilotti or another from his faction to maintain some semblance of normality. As we know now, the opposite happened and Gotti, in his flashy style, attracted far too much attention and the family has never recovered.
