[When gotti became boss there were a number of guys who weren't thrilled like Nicky and Joe Butch. I dunno if Gotti ever thought about killing them because that might have started a war within the family. Like I aid I don't know the whole story of why they had heat but I do know t kind of went back to their inductions
Good point. They had a lot more support than Castellano did. I seriously doubt Gotti would have wanted to deal with that fallout. He steered clear of DeMeo for years for that very reason. Whoah! Welcome back. Thank you, kind sir.

I believe Gotti feared; or was atleast weary of Nino Gaggi.
. Gaggi was the real deal as far as being a tough gangster. Even when he became capo he still went on hits(The eppolitos and George Bynum murders). I don’t have much information on the relationship between Gotti and Gaggi during the 70s and early 80s Atleast from what I read from Murder Machine, Nino was close to the Gambino hierarchy since the 1950s Wasn't he the nephew or cousin of Frank Scalise? Guy was Underboss under Anastasia.

@JCrusher.
Gaggi pretty much owned Gotti during the 70's..... Gotti couldn't do nothing to that man or Roy Demeo
Theres a symbolic relationship tho; Gotti was close to Neil; Gaggi was a protege of Paul Castellano.
. Yeah I know. I simply was talking about any interactions they had. In the Late 70s the Gaggi crew was bigtime. Gaggi was close to Paul and they controlled the Demeo crew who not only were feared killers but tremendous earners Yup you're right. Anyone know if Gaggi and Gotti ever had any real big interactions?

When Corozzo was on America's Most Wanted, Bruce Mouw said Gotti was always jealous of him !!
Gotti was jealous of quite a bit of people. From Corozzo to Sammy to even his brother a Gene at a certain point You're right...For a guy with an ego the size of the Empire State Building, he seemed a little insecure when it came to other capable guys !! Yup very insecure
