John "Junior" Gotti, who insists he quit the mob family run by his late father, the "Dapper Don," watched jury selection start yesterday at his racketeering retrial in Manhattan. One prospective juror was quickly disqualified: a former supervisor of the FBI's organized crime squad.
The most serious charge facing Gotti is the 1992 kidnapping of radio host Curtis Sliwa, the founder of the Guardian Angels crime-fighting group, who allegedly was targeted by "Junior" Gotti because of his on-air rants against the late John Gotti.

Why not hold Junior to the Stanley "Tookie" Williams standard of conversion? If Junior has really quit the mafia like he says then he should gladly help the law enforcement community with unsolved or unknown crimes committed by the mob. He was or is certainly in a position to know.
