Gotti and Scarfo have always been seen as two great examples of the fall of LCN. Scarfo was a paranoid, murdering psycopath, while Gotti was a flamboyant guy who used huge gatherings at his club to stroke his ego. They were different in ways I think though as Scarfo, despite his shortcomings took great precautions in running the family. As anyone who has read Leonetti's book would know, and I don't think he was caught on tape he was convicted on testimony of turncoats and the recordings of underlings. Gotti on the other hand didn't do none of that and stroked his ego by strutting in front of the FBI, and was convicted on his voice (even if Gravano didn't turn he was done). If Scarfo wasn't such a psyco and scared a top guy into turning and Gotti not such an egomaniac and operate more subtly, they both could of been effective bosses In my opinion. Any thoughts?
