- After his court case ended in December 2009, John Gotti, Jr. returned to his home on Long Island. At age 47, he is married, with six children, and as he tells Steve Kroft, he is now trying to acclimate himself to being a free man.
"I would never disrespect a man's daughter and I expect the same" Extremely wise words.
Coming from a man who wouldnt let his wife use the phone if another man was involved yea i would love to take his advice (oh yea he told too)
Wise if you're an idiot common sense if your not
@@FlowboyVegas1 He used that as an example of something he was brought up thinking was right, and later on learned was wrong. Have you always been a model man your whole life?
@@FlowboyVegas1 this has nothing to do with respect. Try to keep up child.
@@FlowboyVegas1on who? Stop it
If Jr ever does a podcast he would break the internet. Hopefully that day comes sooner rather than later.
Yes that would be nice!
He said it best ...."The street forgave me, but the Feds won't"!
Laughable "Ain't it" with what we have just learned about the FED's & CIA dealing in our government COVER UP'S for Jo Jo & Biden FAMILY MAFIA If it wasn't so sad & dangerous IT WOULD BE LAUGHABLE Anybody Remember when we all felt SAFE in this Country, after all the FBI had our back RIGHT 🤔🤨. Sorry Folkes. NOT anymore. Oh but they do have the BIDEN GANG'S BACKS. For sure !!!
I would feel SAFER if. John & his old life style had our backs now, because our Government sure as HELL DOES NOT !!!!🥴
When he said, "i was never known to take a backwards step in throwing these hands." I felt that! lolol
*LIES!
HE EVEN GOT SLAPPED.ON HIS LEFT CHEEK FOR LOOKING LIKE HE DIDN'T LIKE HAVING TO PAY PROTECTION AT THE MEDIUM SECURITY FACILITY. HAPPENED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY ROOM UNIT (D) 1995 right before lunch call. I witnessed it with my own eyes. Jr. Gotti is a rats RAT!🐀!*
@@homebase5134 umm he wasn't in prison in 95? He didn't go to prison until like the early 2000's
@@homebase5134 stop lying. He was head of Gambino family and not in prison in 95.. maybe. These days that would happen to him
At the end of the day all we're gonna have is memories you got to make as many as you can! Echoes
" At the end of the day you gotta make memories". I had to cry. I miss my dad. Hes a lifer. Just like Johns dad. And this statment is so true.
Whys he in jail
So sorry you are missing your Pops. My brother just passed away in June 2022 and that line from Gotti Sr. hit me hard too.
Not once does any of John Sr's children acknowledge or show empathy, or feel sorry for all the people their father killed. Nothing!
No matter what folks think about what he allegedly did he’s a real man and wish him and his family nothing but best wishes. Best interview ever.
Welcome to suckersville mate: population, people who actually believe he was looking after a sick baby all night before the FBI abused their power and arrested him for ‘nothin’
A well spoken family man! God bless you in your future and any endeavors you may pursue.
He’s a drug dealer now. Who’s a family man? This dumbfella?!
@@dr.armanassadi5736 Get help. Your infatuation is beyond creepy.
Amen from 🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺 with ❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯💯💯💯😆😆😆😆😆😆
@@thegent8916 🤬🤬🤬 mutt
Good for John , Jr. I found him to be candid and truthful and very likable. He's done his time. I hope he gets the privacy he wants. I'd buy his book.
This guy can write stories of his past life and at the end say which lessons his past life taught him which would be valuable to everyone who isn't part of that life.
I like his father he used to buy pizza every Friday night for all the families living in the neighborhood...he gave back to the people as best he could. Good guy. John Sr. may he rest in peace
Pizza? How sweet
You know, politicians do what John Gotti Sr. did every day!!! Funny, how they able to get away with it Scott free? Just saying
Great father , Great friend. How many people he helped ? From Cuba 🇨🇺 with love.
He may be out of the life but he's still connected. If you got caught ripping his house off you would be in major trouble. I think if you were ever a wise guy its like a smashed glass. Leaving the mob can't make the glass whole again. So he really is a wise guy having the best of both worlds. Gotti's son will always command a level of respect.
I remember years ago going to a club called Speaks in Island Park on Saturday nights. One night we went down there and the bouncer told us John Jr. was inside with his friends. We knew he had a reputation at the time and rumor had it that steroid use was big with him and his friends. Roid rage is something we didn't want to experience so we decided to go someplace else. Never did cross paths with him but a buddy of mine did in a diner one night. Let's just say my buddy had some healing to do for a few days.
Excellent interview by all involved. Whether or not he’s still in the life is irrelevant to me. I have a new level of respect for John Jr.
Italian men are very excellent family men . Protective of every member of their family.
This shows so much more depth to this family and these men Gotti Sr and Jr.. Jr is very smart and in tune with reality. Down to earth too. Interesting
I'm glad he is well. I wish him and his family the best. I was a kid growing up in bensonhurst in the 80's. I always remember the gotti's.
You're looking good over there.
" My cellmate, doing 17 years for bank robbery, sweetheart of a kid........."
MIKE HUNT I scrolled down and saw this comment as soon as he started to say that 😂😂😂
Are you a detective?
John jr really seems more intelligent then people give him credit for
“Gotti Jr once asked me for permission to take a backwards step from me” - Gianni Russo
That would be one terrifying pink bunny rabbit, lol !!!!
Some people have a hard time respecting street people. Ladies and gentleman, this is one of the finest street guys (family) u will ever see.. Class act all the way. He was his fathers son.. Great man.
John was a smart man. He got out from Cosa Nostra and out from the prison.
"Mind your own business." Lol
He had a PhD in gangsterism But gradually became a Reverend for good
Gravano said in an interview about Jr that "he didn't belong" in the life. Think that summation is on the money when you watch this 60 Minutes piece, he basically just followed his dad into his profession but wasn't truly in-love with it like Gotti Sr. His plea deal was the ultimate showing if this, he just wanted to be at home with his wife and kids, not the other wise guys.
I was in the same writing class as Jr. in Raybrook when he started that book.
I love gangster movies and TV shows. It makes for good fantasy entertainment. But in real life, if you romanticize organized crime and you’re not a part of it, you’re just a dope. If you grew up, like I did, in the New York City area in the 80s and 90s, you would know that the mafia controlled every aspect of everything because they control the unions. The mob would go to local businesses that were owned and operated by hard-working, law-abiding families. They would impose a tax upon them for “protection.” If you didn’t cooperate, you, and your family, would be on the chopping block. So, the protection was ultimately from the very people who were offering it. The bottom line, these businesses could not afford these taxes. So what did they do? They would jack-up the prices of the goods and services that they sold and provided in order to make up for it. So, who ultimately ate the costs? The consumers, like you and me.
In the words of Michael Franzese..."Stop the baloney"
That’s awesome Gotti has admiration for Natives. Being Native, feels nice to hear that.
Extremely smart wonderful man.
His father John Gotti is Actually from the Bronx,...fort Apache\/then Moved to Brooklyn & was Raised Strict passed it Down to his Family great Interview !!
Do you see that his eye keeps jumping LOL
I have to respect his out look, as a father myself.
Yeah Great father figure!
this dude kept it real.
i remember in 1996 junior bought all the tickle me elmos at toys r us
Product of his environment
“You gotta make memories...” Yeah, even if they’re fake ones made up for a 60-minutes interview.
Damn - I could've watched about 10 more hours of this.
So much respect for all of these guys… as a child, my grandfather use to paint cars for Gotti Sr and a few of those guys. I remember he and Sammy sitting in our den in my parents house talking with them and just the way he carried himself and treated the people around him.. RIP John Sr
The opposing team...lol
He is a very likeable and articulate fella
he is blessed.i admire this guy and wish him the best
He didn't really want that life he just wanted to be around his father that's it
Have too admit he comes across as intelligent and sincere, if he has turned his life around fair play too him.
Not going to lie-I found him to be extremely pleasant to listen to and I sincerely think he realized that he didn’t want to end up like his father. He seems like a really good father
This guy couldn't hold one of Tony Soprano's balls.
John Jr, I wish u and your family the best of health and happiness, I'm so happy all is working out for u.
Awesome interview
Very good interview. John Gotti Jr. is a stand-up guy - intelligent, street-wise, at peace with himself, and his family. I think, in this case, the government is the criminal. His father (RIP) knew how to raise children - with integrity, scruples, a firm hand, and a sense of humor, and always, respect that went both ways - generally speaking, a good job. What he did when he was away from the house - who knows.
Great interview 👍 the truth is not always pretty
The gotti’s have tons of charisma
Great answer why the passion for Indians.
Junior: God Bless."
My Dad told me, respect everyone, until they disrespect you, at that point explain that they disrespected you. If they do it again KNOCK THEM OUT COLD. Lol I guess cowboys and gangsters got more in common than I realized.🙂🙂
Accept us cowboys don't harm innocent people and steal from others. I'm sure Wyatt Erp would've shot this guy dead.
Im so stupid it takes me 2 hours to watch 60 minutes
Every time he blinks, he's telling a lie.
I love how his eye twitches every time he tells a fib
You and your dad are my heroes
I always said in College. Sometimes its more important to be memorable than anything.
"I was good with my hands"...with his father nobody wanted to punch back!
The mark of a true criminal think fast talk fast got a reason for it all
Loves the native American struggle. Wow. Totally respect that. Unbelievable respect for that.
seems like a stand up guy
Gotti Jr is funny 🤣
his house was surrounded by female body inspectors....FBI. hahahahhah
The Indian room is amazing
Someone had to break the cycle of violence. John jr did. He did it to save his family and his lineage. Kudos bro
After having others killed off bs he a weasle
He did it because he had no choice
He did it cause he got caught trust me if he wouldn’t of got caught he still would be in that life he didn’t think of his family while hurting people
@@calsums914 They knew what they signed up for. Also, these wiseguys took care of the neighborhood.
That’s exactly what I said somewhere else. I respect him because he actually chose his family over the life. I believe him when he said if he didn’t have a wife and kids he would’ve kept going. He chose his family over the street very smart man,unlike some others.
Don't give a shit what anyone says, that guy gave one of the best interviews I ever heard!
I too thought the interview was quite good. In fact, after viewing it I like the man.
That is the one caracteristic that is needed to be a mob boss. Carisma... Heck if osama was talking like this guy people would`ve liked him too. That doesnt mean his not a bad guy-
I liked him to👍🏻
And the documentary on a&e he is in now was pretty good too
The fact that he is a smooth talking, likable, sincere sounding guy that was once associated with one of the largest mafia families in this country, only means he learned to be that way. On the one hand, I'm sure he's sincere about wanting to live a life away from that life, but on the other hand, he most certainly has skeletons in his closet that he wishes nobody finds out about. Good interview though.
"Reporters in the bushes..." Junior says, "God forbid my robe opens up...I'd have an INDECENT EXPOSURE PINCH!!" Classic!! Just CLASSIC!!
sounds like banter you'd hear on the Sopranos 😂😅😆
Dennis Cassley exposia
Reminds me of the Witness To the Mo John Gotti, he had really interesting lines
I like Jr. I did NOT his father but I do him
However, you can't say you don't disrespect women when you tell your wife who she can and can't talk to. 🤣
@@TT-hl5ql It's his wife, how tf is that disrespect?
I like the way he talks, fast and clear. I like listening to him.
he has practiced, its all 'pat' answers yes
"My cellmate who was serving 17 years for bank robbery, sweet heart of a kid"😂😂
It be like that .
Just cause u rob bank don't mean your a bad person
Dude robbing a bank doesnt make you a bad guy, little wimp
@@aw8632 OK sure. Armed robbery is something decent people do.. you got me there.
@@slabbusterrtr7690 ok I suppose you can be a very friendly“criminal” bank robber. Lol.
"i wouldn't disrespect anyones daughter and I expect the same" I wish more men would live by these words. Respect and care for women. also women need to act like ladies who deserve to be respected. things we can all work on
Stef J this guy used to beat his own women... not slap her but punch her like a boxing bag!
True Mike.
You do realise that a lot of their money comes from prostitution, strip clubs etc. Obviously he has no qualms about mistreating other people's daughters.
Very true I wish it was like those days where real men open car doors for girls and treat women like queens!!
Care? They killed people out of greed are you out of your mind? Your head should of popped out of a laughing box when you said that......Stupid
Good Interview...he seems very humble and at peace with himself.
The press made him out to be a hot headed spin-off fuck up version of his father. But I must say from this interview he's a fascinating street wise family man from NYC who was born into that life and made the best of it.
Countrychiddler agree 💯
definitely agree
I’m reading this and the whole time I’m shakin my head downward. Well said my friend. Salut.
You would be on good behavior also if you were on 60 minutes LOL
Once he got off the coke
At the end of the day all you have is memories
Thought John Sr was gonna tell him to dance with your wife, because if you don't, someday, someone else will.
That was the best part of the interview.
I must try to remember it as I go through life.
Tht is so true tht all we have life is a gift.of nothing but memories.
But did he go out on the floor and dance?
Well not even that, because when you are gone, the memories go with you, in a 100 years nobody is going to care if you existed or not
I love how he says "he was a bank robber. Sweet heart of a kid" haha
Melissa Smith people make all sorts of mistakes & many of the ppl in jail commit crimes because of need, need for money or food ect that doesn’t make them them bad or the worse in society like rapist & child abusers those deserve the chair no jury
Killers don’t deserve a second chance
I dont think he killed anyone
@@josephsmith6777 he has look in his eyes
I had friend who was smart and nice. Would never hurt a fly or say something mean about anyone. He eventually fell into a bad crowd of drugs and crime. The next year, he robbed a bank with 2 other friends. 1 got shot by the police, another fled, and he got caught. He went to prison for 6 years. Came out, and returned back to being a normal nice person.
We're all human and can be caught up in something terrible. Hitler convinced good people to do terrible things as a prime example.
Have watched this interview 10 times, He is a fascinating person to listen too. I would love to have a beer with the guy...His old school values are priceless.
I agree
Hypocritical more like
@@nealbeard1 How so?
@@nealbeard1 you wish you had his power and family.
They removed some stuff, I have no idea why???
I like how he remembers his dog Rocky the german shepherd who passed on while he was away .
Well, now, we know he's an animal lover.
Lol
Rocky, Tyson must be the most popular dogs name's 🥊🥊🐶🐕
I agree. That was something :)
he's definitely got a good memory. even remembered the time of morning it was.
I was totally astounded by Jr’s interview. He is quite smart, poised and articulate. As opposed to some typical mobsters that I grew up with in Red Hook, Brooklyn. Not only that, but the way he conveyed his story was captivating. And you can see how impressed and taken the interviewer was with John.
His respect and admiration for our native Americans was heart warming given the horrors and indignity they put up with in the early days of the West.
I could listen to Jr. all day long. He was very informative and very charismatic.
A class act, despite his affiliations and criminal background.
Agreed!
👍
Impressive internet connection you have in your wigwam bro.
He is quite charismatic.
The natives did extremely horrible atrocities to the settlers too.
But everybody either don't know because the school system teaches kids to hate whites or if they do know, they want to pretend it was all the white man.
Hypocrites
@@judithnicholais1492the irony is that narcissists like to project. A narcissist is usually the one who constantly goes around calling others narcissists. People overuse that word, especially women, and it's cringeworthy.
John jr is very likeable.
He really is
I like him
Like his father was.
Did I think you got conned by his act? Yes I did!
Like father.
Can't help but like the guy. He has a way with words and he's got charisma, I'll give him that.
🤔
Alite wouldn't agree with you
@@DigitalvideotoolsOrg alite just liked to talk to anyone that will listen. I don't think he was as big as he thought he was, of course I wouldn't say that to his face
I can't stand this guy. What charisma , I don't get it. His dad had charisma , he acts tuff , he's soft!
It's that NYC swagger. You pick it up at a young age or you dont growing up in the town.
These gangsters (The Gottis) pissed off the more powerful gangsters (the Feds).
Feds are blood suckers. Bunch of Dracula's in a gray flannel suit.
Jared Lopez get deported
@CryptKeeper what about gotti lol
I like how he dedicated his time in his Indian room,that shows volume and morals.I salute you for that,Jr.Keep up the good work on Native American History.Peace and God Bless to you and your family,John Jr.
Jared Lopez yo mama
All of these mobster are obsessed with some exotic culturre..."This is my samurai room. I was always fascinated by the discipline of the Japanese"
I enjoyed watching this part 3 video. It shows that a man can change his behavior and be truly committed to live a better life. I enjoyed listening to him, and how committed he was to his word.
As an Italian & father the hardest part was when he spoke about his daughter;(
Really enjoyed this interview, you can tell junior has been threw it all and is still standing. I’m glad he changed and he seems like a great father! His son is an awesome MMA fighter as well!
Fascinating interview, very enjoyable.
Three Mules for Sister Sarah/one of my favorites
It’s crazy that such a relatively normal interview can be so captivating. The charisma Jr has, if it’s even half that of his old man, makes it easy to see why Sr was loved by so many.
John to day I repect all you stand for Scotty G.
em
literally said the same thing! I admire his poise, family values, and overall values as a man. true stand up guy!
the devil gets to talk to you ab out how he is so PURE and simple. Ain't so
Well said, I agree 👍
don't be fooled by the charisma & cunning of a narcissist -- He's very shallow - he ticks off all the shiny things that makes him feel special in part 3 .. very sad but predictable when you have a father like John Gotti who modeled narcissism for young John -- this kid is starved for identity .. for real love and real security .. real attachment ... And Real Sad
At 6:24 Classic for any father that has a daughter. Like him or not that is what every father of a daughter goes through.
I hope your life really improved after leaving the mafia behind. Family comes first, your real family.
"At the end of the day, all you have is memories. You gotta make as many as you can. Cuz that's all your're going to have."
Yeah, well everything he says feels scripted and learned beforehand.
@@jojolafrite90 no
The agents kept bothering him because they became obsessed with him. The FBI became obsessed with the Gotti's. Once the guy is acquitted he is not supposed to be arrested or even interviewed about that charge ever again.
he was never 'acquitted'.. all jurys for jr were hung/deadlocked. They can put him on trial 1000 times unless he is ACQUITTED.
Biltospill it was a big waste of taxpayer money and the Feds were embarrassed, as they should’ve been.
And that’s only in regards to the same charge of a specific incident. They could potentially charge him a 1000 times if it’s for different crimes and incidents
Thats false the feds will charge u 8 ways for the same crime
Kind of "double jeopardy"..
“He claims the house was bought with money from legitimate businesses, and the government has been unable to prove otherwise”
hilarious
Yeah that is hilarious. Especially the daughter Vicki Gotti who never worked a day in her life yet lived in a mansion for years
Money is money. No matter how it’s earned
@@stevenmiller1416 good. Someone got away with it.
Everything the govt. Has they
Stole...
@@alexfithero Money isnt considered legal unless the real criminals our government get a piece.
He is Also a VERY HANDSOME MAN. He now just wants to be in charge of only HIS PERSONAL FAMILY. He seems so Humble.
A very articulate and well spoken guy. A guy you just want to respect.
I would say articulate and reasonably intelligent given his limited formal education.
As for "respect", IDK...I think far more people fear him rather than truly respect him. We don't know how many people he and his crew killed or ordered killed, and I don't necessarily believe that all of them "had it coming". We only have his word that he's severed all ties to his old life, but that's the word of a convicted felon. He admitted his dad was a born liar and that he still worships him, so...
No one can blame young guys for not wanting to ask his daughter out. Even if you treated her right and things progressed romantically, would you really want to marry into that family, knowing all the baggage and unwanted attention that comes with it ? (Just ask Joey Buttafucco's daughter.)
That all said, I can respect that John Jr seems sincere about living a straight and narrow life now. He should def sell that big LI house and move away from NY entirely. He'll likely be watched if not hounded by the Feds for the rest of his life, but even more so in the Tri-state area.
@Goog Googleman he was born into to life bro. He had no choice... from someone who was raised in a criminal neighborhood, it's tough to have a different life from everyone else.
@curragh 42 Michael vicario
He should be locked up
If you're born into that life, well in the end, he picked his family, so all respect to john,tells you he's a good Dude, 👍
He send many guys to jail by ratting on them, while he took an oath.
Yeah, very respectful.
