Since no one has answered in several days: The truckdriver who was assaulted by Gotti and conveniently "forgot" the identity of his assailant was Romual Piecyk.
Q. What was the name of Gotti's Queens headquarters "social club"?

Since this wasn't answered in a few days I'll give the answer and another question. The answer is Charlie Clemenza.

Q. Name the District Attorney responsible for Lucky Luciano's imprisonment in 1936, and later (as governor of New York) in 1946 for his freedom from prison.

I'm guessing you're referring to Jimmy "The Weasel" Fratiano, although Sinatra was tight with Mickey Cohen and knew Bugsy Siegel.
Q. Speaking of Sinatra: what East Coast mobster was the model for Luca Brasi?

It's been a long time, so: The East Coast mobsster on whom Luca Brasi is based was Willie Moretti, who allegedly muscled bandleader Tommy Dorsey into releasing Sinatra from a binding contract.
Q. Which Gotti associate had been ratting him out since 1971, and was killed 17 years later?
