I guess other than Merlino ?

I don’t think anyone thinks that he was a great leader of a family.
How can anyone think that.

The truth is his own guys should have killed him and Gas, why they didn’t just let him Rot in prison on the shelf is even more perplexing….

I thought the commission rules were once your appeals were exhausted you had to step down like Gotti did.


John Gotti NEVER stepped down! He was the "official" boss until the day he died. He operated the family through proxies like his son, brother Pete, Jackie D'Amico, etc.

The ONLY boss to my memory in recent decades to ever do "the right thing" and step down was Tony Ducks. Worst move he ever made! Just look what happened in the wake of his decision to do so.
