Testifying against John A. Gotti today, Curtis Sliwa, the founder of the Guardian Angels crime patrol group, described in vivid detail being shot at point-blank range while sitting in the back seat of a taxicab 13 years ago.
Mr. Sliwa relived the shooting before a jury in Federal District Court in Manhattan, where Mr. Gotti, 41, the scion of the Gambino crime family, is being tried on racketeering charges.
Mr. Gotti is facing a 42-page indictment including securities fraud, loansharking, construction industry extortion, and charges of conspiracy to kidnap Mr. Sliwa. He was indicted in July on charges of ordering the retaliatory attack on Mr. Sliwa after the Guardian Angels founder denounced Mr. Gotti's father, the late crime boss, on his radio program.

Thanks for the link! Maybe that's where I saw it before.
This is John, Jr.; he's been in jail for years, but they brought him out to try him.
Victoria Gotti is John, Jr., and Peter's sister.
One of them did.He made some nasty remark at one young man's sister at a mall and he beat the shit out of him.
Do those boys actually speak English?
I'll bet. What basis did he have for coming to that conclusion other than the drug dealing and the gambling and stolen car rings and the attempted assassination and the three guys with ballbats? Hmm?
NO.They also look like boy band rejects.

Victoria Gotti's sons Carmine, 18 and John, 17, took a beating last weekend after they allegedly harassed a 15-year-old girl at a Long Island mall.
The 17-year-old brother of the aggrieved girl delivered a beat-down to the Gotti boys after they "pinched her butt and made disgusting comments" at the Roosevelt Field Mall on Saturday, says our source.
The enraged brother and two of his friends approached the Gottis and their 10-person crew after his sister complained about their boorish behavior.
"Next thing you know this kid was really beating the c--p out of Carmine," a witness to the melee told PAGE SIX. "All the Gotti friends were taking cheap shots, punching and kicking the back of this kid's head, but he didn't care. He just continued to beat Carmine till he was bloody, and then he went after John and whupped him, too.

Couldn't happen to a bunch of nicer girls.
Growing Up Gotti, an oxymoron in progress, is unwatchable.
I'm silly enough to watch each week,
b/c I have to SEE for MYSELF, to
believe how ROTTEN to the CORE those
brats are. And how STUPID Victoria
is.
MOST of it is due to Victoria herself.
Those kids should have been taken from
her the minute they were born.
Even grandpa John Gotti had no use for
his own grandsons. He told Victoria
exactly what he thought of them.
From the "Blowing up Gotti" website,the Ol'man was ashamed of the whole lot of them.I wonder what he'd think of his candy ass grandsons if he wasn't 6 feet under.
I heard about that, but once a$$ whoopin'
for one of them isn't enough.
All three need about 6 a$$ whoopin's a day.
Yes, he let his daughter know what he
thought of her sons....AND HER!
Gotti told her & her sons to stay out
of the limelight and OFF TV!
Seems too odd, on the show...Grandpa
reigns supreme and idolized. LOL
I'll give the old man this much, he didn't like his grandson's punk-ass attitude.
But the old man wasn't exactly a paragon of virtue himself.
In the "Gotti Blood" segment [# 4], Gotti refers to Clinton when he says:
"When the president is a piece of crap, it just filters on down"
