Mobster - Angelo Ruggiero & John Gotti
Vložit
- čas přidán 6. 09. 2024
- Angelo Salvatore Ruggiero, Sr. was a member of the Gambino crime family and a deferential friend of John Gotti. Under Gotti's leadership Ruggiero became a caporegime though he became widely seen as an over talkative enforcer type without the astuteness needed for running lucrative rackets. Gotti, by then the most targeted criminal in the country, came to share the assessment amid mounting investigative pressure and costly blunders by the inveterately indiscreet Ruggiero, who had completely fallen from favor by the time of his death. The FBI regarded Ruggiero, whose open defiance of law enforcement extended to swearing at the judge during a hearing, as an unpredictable psychopath not amenable to confrontational tactics.
People don't give enough credit to Armand Assante for playing Gotti that was an amazing performance I think Armand is so underrated
The best
It was a very tame version and perception of Gotti, I think Gotti was much more cruder and vulgar than that representation.
Hxgh Society gotti was a 2 bit thug
Always thought Vincent Curatola would've played an excellent Gotti. The movie was supposedly in the works with Travolta playing him but I haven't heard about it being anywhere close to being finished.
I didn't claim otherwise. I think Curatola would've also killed that role.
Gotti was hands down the worst mob boss in history
Not according to the wise guys who worked for him. Most say the Big Paul was worse.
@@Chiefamongsinnerz big paul was hated but knew how things run john gotti just ruined the familly
So was Al Capone, Giancana, Scarfo, Colombo worst mobster too
Facts!!! He got everybody busted having meetings at his club 🤦🏾♂️ so dumb he got Sammy the bull pinched also!!
Fools think gotti was worse
John Travolta as J.G. is a insult and joke..😡
He played it well I think
this bald wanker is such an overrated us shithead
Im not sure anyone else could have did better
Enough Gotti. He was a simple thug. We need a movie about the Chin! Vincent Gigante was the Shrewdest Mob boss ever. What a story.
@RESPECT MY AUTHORITY you are not half the man i am,i will fucking break you in half look into my eyes in the picture and it will reveal what is in my heart, jhonn gotti has more courage and is more of a man then you can dream of, you just dont like him cause he reminds you of the bullies that took your lunch money
Gotti shouldve been the one called “quack-quack” ... he’s the one being heard all over those fbi recordings
But it was the heroin case that got him screwed. Quack quack because he talked ALL the time. The tape buried him with babana
@@michaelmarchese there was a reason the FBI tapped Ruggiero's phone. They knew he was the weakest link. FBI Agent Bruce Mouw said the rumor was if you dialed any 7 digit number in New York chances are Angelo would answer it.
@@masonorosco1090 then he died and Genie did ALL the time, 30 years. He turned down a deal for 15 and went to trial. Say what you want about Gene he took it like a soldier and shut up, he would not take a deal against his brothers wishes. Its really sad.
@@michaelmarchese gene would be dead if not locked up.
@@ray817oneDEEP maybe so, there is a high probability of that.
Gotti should of kept his head down and stayed as a Capo,he was never as smart as he thought.
all he did was paint a huge target on his back.
+kaleidoscope Dance Group he did at that. Thanks for watching.
@calo10able expound on what made him a great boss??? I'll at least tell you that he made some immensely DUMB moves especially when he mandated that all the soldiers pay homage to him at the ravenite social club once a week. Obviously he never learned from the comission trial to remain secret. He didn't listen to wise counsel on how a boss was supposed to comport himself. Instead he became a megalomaniac. I'll grant you that he was charismatic, but that will only get you so far my friend.
@calo10able railroaded how?? Gotti was convicted by his own words( as well as the testimony of Sammy Gravano) in that apartment above the ravenite social club. Then he bad mouthed Sammy because of his ability to make huge amounts of money in construction and other complex business deals. He was too too flashy and bosses cannot operate like that if they wish to remain in power. Gambino lasted 21 years because he understood that cosa nostra was THEIR THING and not the public's. John Gotti unfortunately felt otherwise and that's why he lasted as a street boss for 5 years. Sure he had flare and impressed many in the neighborhood but that don't mean shit when the feds were looking for anything to can his ass.
@calo10able when the FBI, after Hoover's death, decided to go after cosa nostra, that spelled the beginning of their demise. The reason that Gotti's lawyer was barred from representing him was because his voice were on tapes which proved to be a conflict of interest. In esscence the lawyer was subject to being called as a witness. Sammy more than likely felt that Gotti was scheming to double cross him so he stuck first and became a rat.
Yes, he wasn't to smart and he talked to much.
Ironically Castellano escaped certain jail by getting killed. All the rest of the Commission bosses got put away. And they had Paul on tape from his own house. The one guy who was not a “real gangster” certainly died like one.
I’m so obsessed with this mob history LOVE OT
There is no mafia
@@sonnyshade4187 mafia? What mafia? We just play cards and grow tomatoes in our gardens, hey, forgeddabout.
U are not alone broskie 💪💯💪
Armand did an outstanding job playing Gotti. He’s an outstanding actor.
No he's not that movie fucking sucked that's why his career Tanked
@@cal4207 He won an Emmy and was nominated for a golden globe. You're brain is fried son. I hope China glasses Commiefornia btw.
I've read over 50 books on the Mob from Gotti to Joe Dogs to DeMeo family and still can't understand why people join the Mafia. Only 2 retirement homes, the graveyard or the pen. Michael Franzese got smart.
Meyer Lansky, Johnny Torrio, and Frank Costello all got out......barely.
Everybody goes to the graveyard no matter who u are or what u do for a living we're all here for a short time and nobody makes it out alive
@@benjaminmortimer9169 that makes sense
I imagine it’s the perceived excitement. People join to go to war because of a belief. Same is true with the mafia. Plus growing up poor and not being a believer in education (plus education takes longer).
Well, if you're a psychopathic moron, maybe you don't see the big picture.
Neil Delacroce was a true Mafiosi and very respected, loyal. They need to create movies about him or write books.
You would think a person in that life with the nickname “quack quack” would have been taken care of as a precautionary measure.
So true, from Quack Quack to Dead Duck.
They couldn't kill him he was bringing in way too much money for the family
The Gambino family feud of the 70’s and 80’s is probably the greatest soap opera in American mob history.
Carlo Gambino dies, names Paul as his successor, starts feuds in the family, Neil dies, Gotti and Sammy have Paul killed, then Gotti and Sammy have their feuds and leads to the prosecution of Gotti.
There should be a TV series on the Gambino family of the 70’s to 90’s.
Movie is not enough time to cover it all.
What was Gotti so damn afraid of about “the Chin”?? IMO Gotti the way Sparks was put together, could have whacked Gigante cause the Gambino Family was still supposedly were the strongest, biggest and financially capable! I just was damn impressed with the way that he positioned the gun men and putting Carneglia on the spot cause he although quiet and underrated had a good rep for matters like this. TonyRoach Rampino was postponed across the street from the restaurant and as Castellano went down, “the Wig” got low and then as Tony fires at Bilotti Carneglia is coming around making damn sure both men were gone!!!
The "GLAMOR" of Gotti -- for me, at least -- was TARNISHED in a big way when he & whoever GANGED UP ON THE REFRIGERATOR MECHANIC GUY THEY HAD THE PARKING DISPUTE WITH? That wasn't fair...and it wasn't cool. They ROBBED the poor, outnumbered guy of $300? Can you IMAGINE Don Corleone doing that?
The Godfather is the honorable way mobsters want to be seen as, but the reality is more like Casino. Robbery is just another hustle to make money for them.
Dennis Cassley Corleone wasn’t based on Gotti, Joey Zasa was. Who would have probably done that.
Joe Columbo insisted that things were taken out of The Godfather that was unflattering.
Quack Quack was a blabber mouth. But so was Gotti. That is not cosa nostra.
Angelo Ruggiero is my grandpa 😬
Its crazy how small Sammy "the bull" Gravano was but he was so feared by everybody
Can someone please tell me why someone would kidnap a relative of Don Carlo Gambino ? What would possess someone to commit such a suicidal act ?
+Keith Nicholson Money!
Money ? And a death sentence comes with it.
Keith Nicholson It often does.
it seemed to be an accepted practice at the time. kidnap someone, hold them for ransom, let em go once you're paid. the westies did this a lot
I agree with u bro ....to me it is simply suicide to kidnap Don Carlo's Relative but he did and then whacked him ...maybe he thought he was related to a capo or someone else but that is like taking hostage a daughter from Santo Trafficante or Gotti or Lansky or Carmine Gallante ....geez ..u have to know that u dead within a week when u do something like that ....fking dumb !
Gotti wanted to let it go, as he saw it as simply a tragic accident. But his wife Victoria wasn't letting go, it was her that pressured John to clip John Favara.
To be fair, that gravano quote that finished right before the six minute mark wasn't about Trambone, it was about Angelo and Gene's FBI tapes that lead to their '83 indictments
You should have your own tv show. Your info is always well researched and not just a cut and paste job from other sources. I have been "mobbed up" in the literary sense since I was a teen, and as i'm in my 60's now you could say I know a bit about "this thing of ours".
Your narration is also a delight to my puffed up cauliflower ears.
+Charlie McTruth Thanks you my friend. And thanks for watching.
Charlie McTruth don’t you even think about ratting
As close as he was to Gotti and as “inept” as he is described in this video by his peers, there’s no way the attempt on Casso was unsanctioned, Gotti was definitely in the loop
Of course Gotti was in the loop, Gotti is who ordered the hit on Paul Castellano in order to become boss and prevent his own assassination from happening over his drug dealing against the orders of the Commission. The Commission was not consulted regarding Paul being whacked and that is what was “unsanctioned”, and that was another example of Gotti not being quite the right guy for leadership as nobody is bigger than the council.
Notice how the Italian Mafia members weren't covered head-to-toe in tattoos trying so desperately to show everyone how tough they were?
That’s the point. It’s supposed to me a secret society. That’s good though they can blend in better with everyone else you know not getting gang signs tattooed on their necks and stuff.
Gotti single handedly destroyed the mob...
Actually he didnt. He single handedly destroyed himself. Sammy destroyed the.mob.by testifying against 32 other mobsters
Just think...they're all burning in hell right now. ..the dark never benefited!!!!
The cities would be a lot better and cleaner if the mafia were still active and present in my opinion.
Damn, i thought they were made by Gambino... they killed the boss that gave them membership
I doubt sammy dragged jg to angelos funeral, if gotti did not want to go he would have not went
Vincent Pastore as Angie was definitely the right choice
Gotta & him we're like Brothers and Neil was like their father.
Quack Quack: "Who woulda thought the king of the volcano lived in this place?"
Mr. Neil: "It's the old timers' style Angie, you don't flash nothin"
4:01-4:44 according to the HBO movie Gotti. He, John Gotti sr forgave the driver knowing it was a accident. But is was Angelo Ruggiero sr who took it upon himself to get rid of John Favara.
dellacroce was a solid guy for his friends
Quack quack understood Cosa Nostra but his big mouth did him in .
You have a great voice..
You could be on the radio or work as a voice over on documentaries..
+Will W. Thanks! I been told that hundred of times.
He really does.
There's a guy who does narration on some Mafia documentaries, with many videos here that feature his voice, and this guy also has a terrific voice for that particular thing...raspy and with a touch of menace.
His name is John Laurie.
Bloodletters & Badmen is one of the best channels on YT. Really enjoying what you guys are doing.
+8Kryptos8 Thank you my friend. Have a Great New Year!
Everyone else for murder: 25 to life.
Mob sentence for murder: 3 to 5 years, paroled after 2.
I always enjoy your vids, keep up the good work!
+meltz911 Thank you. I will.
“That’s why I call you Quack Quack!” “They don’t have to bug you!” “Anyone in New York dials seven digits, and they get you!”
Always loving the videos,keep them coming!!! Do you think you'll do one about mad Sam destefano??
I need a no show job 😂
Me too😂😂
Castellano was gonna kill john so john moved first it was the right decision
Benjamin Mortimer no bro it was never right a boss is a boss John gotti is great and all but once you took that oath you never betray the oath like yakuza a boss is a father so let’s say you are a boss it’s ok for your underling to kill you and betray you??
@@katonguyen3029 I believe this is a bit different. Paul wasn't a real gangster 90% of the men didnt respect or like him he was greedy and made alot of mistakes. John woulda had to get the men to go along with it too, he didnt act alone maybe he didnt get full permission off the commission but paul was gonna kill him just bcoz he didnt like him and he wanted to move into white collar crime and away from the rackets. John was a made guy who didnt break any rules so what paul was planning was also against the rules. What was john supposed to do just let himself be killed? He had 2 options run away and hide forever or stand up be a man and take paul out. He chose the better of the only 2 bad options he had.
@@katonguyen3029 also bosses have been killed since the beginning of time. It's generally the natural order of things. Everyone says a boss can never be harmed but the younger guys always end up taking the boss out mainly bcoz they don't adapt and move with the times they become greedy and not relatable to their men anymore.It's rare for a boss to retire he either gets taken out or goes to jail for the rest of his life.
No. He was gonna kill Ruggiero and demote Gotti.
Big Paul couldn't see the handwriting on the wall due to not spending enough time in the street and was whacked as a result.
You are reaching as far as Poland. Keep it going pal. Well narrated!!
The thing I dont understand about JG is how he made his brother do all that time when he could have done a 15 year bit. Genie sat for 30 when every other guy was dead. Maybe it help Genie in the end and kept him alive but he did all that time when he could have pled out for a lot less.
Gotti simply was an ass!!!
I'm certain that Dellacroce was his uncle not his cousin. I've read that in multiple Gotti books.
+Will Taylor As have I. I believe it was uncle. But then you get a few articles and such that say cousin. If I hadn't mentioned the possibility of both, then those who think he was a cousin would be cussing me out all month. Not to mention I have a cousin who is like 25 yrs older than me and my parents has us call him Uncle. Go figure....
John gotta wasn't related to him. Johm gotti long time friend Angelo ruggerio was neil delacroces nephew but was closer to gotti.
Died at 49 of lung cancer. So young. Musta smoked 3 packs a day! 🚬
So Ruggiero was the one that really brought the Gambino family down .
Regardless if Sammy didn't snitch , they were going down anyway because of Angelo's mouth , he revealed to much on those tapes.
Gotti new in the back of his mind , that they could be convicted in the courts .
*THAT'S* , the reason why he didn't want to go to Angelo's funeral .
He envisioned *his his own funeral while alive* and here is his friend who's now dead , lived what they call the good life , is escaping prison.
EXACTLY 💯. I don't really believe Sammy Gravano's opinion in that John Gotti wanted to be a savage animal towards Angelo Ruggiero. I think him realizing that Angelo dying (and eventually died) and escaping essentially a lifetime prison sentence was a sobering reality for John Gotti that he was finished.
i think I've watched every video on your channel, i throughly enjoyed all of them, thanks for taking the time to make these videos, appreciated and subscribed..
+Abdisalam Gedi Thanks you my friend.
Another in depth look at Mob Politics. Thanks, keep em coming
+Taurean P Thanks. I will. And Merry Christmas!
These are great. Need a Russel Buffalino one. I don't think too many people know how powerful he actually was. The commission would bring him in to help solve a matter they couldn't figure out. Reports say he had Hoffa killed too and Scorcese is making a movie called "The Irishman" that will be out in 2019 where Joe Pesci is playing Buffalino. He was so low key. That's why you don't see much out there on him. There are 2 books out about him though. I think this channel should do a Buffalino one. Anyway love the channel.
Thanks my friend. He is on my list.
Dud you watch the movie?
@@jerry85g7 is this guy dead sadly ? The guy whos channel this is / was ? This channel was one of the best and was around way before all these other channels. Oh well. Hope the guy is doing well.
@@jerry85g7 movie was so so.
@@mookygravano3924 I don't know.
Mr Neil was the man
Yes , text book
I still am
He had the eyes of a stone cold killer. And I do not believe he was a Gov't informer. This dude would make me piss my pants
Neil should have whacked Carlo over the Anastasia job!! Dellacroce was known as for doing the boss’s orders. He was well liked by the other Family’s men!
He was a murderer and nothing else.
Mr Neil was Angelo's uncle. His mothers maiden name was Dellacroce
Great movie 1996 I believe, lots of Sopranos actors.
Pauly Walnuts is the trigger man at Sparks killing the boss of bosses
7:14 but he never had the makings of a varsity athlete
James crowe...small hands that's your problem!
Angelo Salvatore Ruggiero ran his mouth, but didn't Gotti run his mouth too? Both were recorded by the FBI, which led to Gotti's demise. I believe that Gotti would of been killed, maybe by Sammy, or one of his cohorts. if he wasn't incarcerated.
Never understood how Gotti was Delacroces protege but they couldnt be any different....Crazy
I never heard about Angelo and Gas pipe fighting before............ interesting
Thanks for watching!
Oh yae they were trying to kill each other and the chin was aligned with vic and gas.
Thanks for this video! I was highly requesting this.
+jacksonbear1 You're welcome my friend.
The old "Moustache Petes" of the 20s and 30s would've never tolerated the way "Gotti & Co." conducted themselves...Even Luciano himself would've had them all whacked, had they'd been around when he was in his prime...Far too much "showboating" would've brought on far too much unfavorable attention in Lucky's eyes...Thanks again for the stream...
+Crazcompart You're welcome my friend. Thanks for watching.
Very interesting and well narrated mini- documentary.
I really enjoyed it.
Thank you.
I wish you rainbows.
Why didn't I come across this sooner ? ........Great info ....you don't find much about Angelo Ruggiero on here
Thanks my friend.
+Bloodletters & Badmen yea thank you for this. did he get cancer like in the Gotti movie
First time I've seen a new one in a while. I'm gonna check and I hope I've missed a few recently. This one helped with my withdrawals that I suffer when new ones are withheld from me for any length of time but always leave me wanting more. What can I say. I'm addicted. Seriously, really good work. Simple, concise, direct.
EDIT: I see that there are several recent ones. Wonderful. Simply wonderful.
+CAROLVS Thanks you my friend. Trying to get back in a rhythm. I was out of town a lot this past summer.
Can you do Vincent The Chin?
cosign
What was John afraid of?
Karma Gotti died of cancer also . His child hood friend was loyal to him . And Gotti was only loyal to Gotti.
John shelved Angelo for his mouth when it was John's mouth that got him locked up forever. Angelo died of cancer and John almost didn't go to his funeral and then John died of cancer and hardly any made guys went to his funeral (when the whole mob went to Angelo's funeral). KARMA IS REAL
Quack Quack reminds me of Paulie Gualtieri
More like big pxssy who played him in the hbo movie.
I never understand why Gotti is so infamous, as a mob boss he was a disaster, he wanted recognition and fame, instad being in the shadows like a typical mob boss, hell, he even do his business in open public that why he was caught with his pants down, even that in previous occasions he come clean with other criminal charges. Gotti was a little kitty compared with other real mob bosses, hell, he was little fish compared with the Corleonese Sicilian Mafia, they were big sharks in a pool full of sharks.
+TheKeyser94 Thanks for the comment. Gotti was way to public no doubt.
THEY ALL SEEM CLOWNS..
He's infamous because he put himself in the spotlight... if he had stayed in the shadows, as mob bosses do as a rule, he would never have had the popularity...but he wanted it that way, he loved the attention...
Keyser94 I don't think he would be around very long in the 1920's era
He totally fell in love with himself soon after he became boss.
Yea John gotti put Angelo out of the family because he talked to much but John was the one who talked too much because it was his own words that got the family taken down by the feds good job Johnnie
Actually, John put Angelo on the shelf because he was behind the attack on Gaspipe Casso, who was the one who killed Frankie Cheech with the bomb. Ang did this without Gotti's OK, and it almost started a war with "the Chin", So Gotti told Chin, rather than whack Ang, he would put him on the shelf, and Chin agreed to this.
Joseph Rivett Casso killed Frank Cheech with a bomb that was meant for Gotti himself which the chin likely knew about and gave his approval of and if you really believe Gotti didn’t know about the attack on gas pipe you’re crazy
I really like your work and just got a book Hitman , the untold story of Johnny Martorano . I recommend it if you hav'nt already read it. I was also lucky enough to get it autographed as he is free man in the Boston area.
+Paul Hendrick Thanks my friend. I already have it, but haven't read it as of yet.
Mr. Neil aka "Aniello de la Croce" literally translates to "Little Lamb of the Cross"
Bloodletters & badmen, Still waiting for that Longzy Zwillman and Mendy Weiss video.... Great work as usual bro....
+David Holley They are both on the list. Thanks for watching!
angie was always a soldier, never a capo
No Fat Angie was made capo of the Bergen crew.
lyfe 1zruff acting capo of gotti’s old crew
5:54 As soon as you say "Who knows?" is the right question, the newspaper appears on the screen, showing exactly what you're saying
Ruggiero never had the makings of a varsity athlete.
Another GREAT Mini-Doccumentary , Bloodletters & Badmen! - "Brent the Gent"
John talked to much but he was a stand up guy and always backed hes crew when he was capo.
once again nice video!
+its bill gates to you son. Thanks for watching my friend!
i just realized the narration was in place of the newspaper text in the report of Neil dying..pretty slick
Gotta say I've been hitting this channel up a lot over the last three or so days but as an Irish man I have to say can we get some love for the Irish mob
Not bad. A few things though are way off. No disrespect intended. When Johnny Boy and Quack were made, Neil was doing a bullet upstate. Many think that if Neil was free he would have been named Caporegieme instead of Paul Castellano. When Aniello Dellacroce, aka O’Neil, Neil, Father O’Neil got out the Gambinos we’re ready for a war. Neil had the most powerful crews on his side, including the Fatico crew that Gotti and Ange were a part of. Castellano did not want a war. Instead he made Neil the Boss of Manhattan which he ran from the club on Mulberry street, right across from the original St. Patrick’s, Called the Ravenite social club. Gotti used it as home base after becoming boss.
The biggest mistake though revolves around the babania business. Heroin. Carlo Gambino had been heavily involved in global heroin trafficking since 1957 when Lucky Luciano brokered a deal with the Sicilian Mafia. Gambino comes from Mafia royalty in Sicily and brought over hundreds of “Zips,” the nickname for Sicilian mafiosi given to them by their American cousins because they talked so fast. Sal Catalano aka “Toto” who later took over the Bonanno family post Donnie Brasco, Tomasso Buscetta, and others. Heroin was by far the biggest money maker for all five families, they called this Cartel “The French Connection” because the Sicilian Mafia and the Unione Corsicani, the powerful Corsican mob, were thick in Marseille. Later they called it the “Pizza Connection.”
Because of the strict drug laws passed in 1956, the rule was don’t talk about it ever, but make sure you kick up the ladder in proper fashion. Neil had been in dope since he was Albert A’s right hand, going back to the late 1940’s. This myth about drugs is a long running ruse. Pure bullshit. Neil would front a trusted soldato a million dollars and say, “ Two million by the end of the month.” The Godfather film also spun a fairytale out of the drugs business.
Heroin is still the cash cow. The Sicilian Mafia make about 11 billion dollars a year from it, 7% of Italy’s GDP. The American Mafia, now deeply undercover still control all heroin wholesaling east of the Mississippi River. The Mexican cartels sell black tar, a rather inferior product to the “China White,” sold in the East. China White is the color, not the country of origin. The Gambino Family began to trade Cocaine via the Caruana-Contrera Family of Monreale Sicily, called the “Rothschild’s” of the Mafia, who had a huge presence in Venezuela. Coke went to Europe, Heroin came to America often through Montreal, Canada.
Most of the heroin nowadays is fentanyl coming from south of the border from China. Other than dirty black tar it's very hard to find real heroin anymore. Even the Oxy pills are almost always fakes that are really fentanyl. Fentanyl is around 50x stronger than H which is why overdose statistics have been so extreme the past 5 years.
Great video keep up the good work
+faty Mix Thanks you my friend.
+Bloodletters & Badmen Gotti had a great line about Ruggierio: pick up the phone and dial any seven numbers and there's a 50/50 chance Angie is on the other end
I love all ur vids keep up the great work...u think when u get around to doing it u could maybe do a video on the Comorra(Naples) or the Corsican mafia(Italian French)? They are connected with LCN and actually have members in US and few other countries besides Italy and France...thanks
+King Miz I will on the Comorra. That has been a topic I wanted to do. The problem is the 15 minute time limit CZcams gives me.
Can someone please explain to me about what happens in the modern day mob in New York and Philly etc. Do they recruit young guys in their late teens early 20’s? Are the same acts still committed? Where are the mobsters on the streets nowadays in New York? Would you recognize one if you saw one since most of them don’t wear the flashy suits anymore? Do they still have the hangout spots at the social clubs like sitting at a table? Are they still feared? Please someone tell me I’m finding no information on the internet about the modern day mafia.
Good video. Angie should have never been Capo. Any video for Frank Lucasio?
+King Pro He is on my list. Thanks for reminding me.
yeaaaa, waiting for you to post a video for angelo ruggiero, thanks for the video
+sam John Gotti You're welcome my friend. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for this upload. I enjoyed it.
+Sonya Antoine You're welcome my friend. Thanks for watching.
Sammy said Gotti didn't give a shit about Angelo Ruggerio. Because when Angie caught Cancer Sammy said he had to beg John to go see him in the hospital. And when he died John didn't even go to his funeral. And John was even thinking about killing him at 1 time.
Gotti never had the makings of a varsity athlete....just saying.

Bloodletters & Badmen
i was tired i didnt spell it correctly,oh well you got my drift :)
One of,the better stories about Mob life
It's not Rugero....It's Ru-gg-i-ero....emphasis on the "I"
John Gotti shouldnt be boss of Gambino too much publicity!!!
You could have gone more into detail on probably many things. It's a great video. I enjoyed it. There was retaliation from the Lucchese's and Genovese for Castellano's murder which is the back story for Casso being shot. You could have just done an entire video on that cycle of violence. Like your work P
+Will Taylor I could go a lot more ion each bio. But I am trying to keep them short. Thanks for watching.
Even teflon wears out in the end.....
Can you do Robert Lino next?
+Deans Top 5 Productions Sorry my friend. I have a list I've mapped out months in advance. But he is on the list.
While they were being "made", do you suppose Fat Angie was able to keep his mouth shut during the ritual ??? lol
I'll tell ya something if you two's never bother with me agian I ain't giving up dem tapes , I cant I cant there's good friends of mine on dem fuckin tapes.
Thanks for another great video!!
+Mochan :)
The saying, 'no honour among thieves' certainly rings true with the Gambino's. 1985 was a pivotal year in the family as Rudy Giuliani was on Big Paul's back looking to take him down, while Mr Neil was the powerbroker between Paul and John Gotti. What saved Gotti from getting hit, was fate and Giuliani's delay in releasing tape evidence of the family's drugs involvement, because had he released the evidence in the early months of that year, Big Paul would have taken out Gotti for sure. As for Quack Quack, he's lucky that fate took him from being whacked. To die from lung cancer at 49 due to chain smoking, is sad to hear.
He was actually called Quack Quack because he walked like a duck. Anthony Ruggiano recently cleared this up in one of his podcasts.
...okay, am I the only one who heard the music at the beginning and got freaked out?
