Another senseless mobster revenge story.

Reminded of this by Cecil’s answer to the “concrete shoes” question, I come to the SDMB for an answer to my own question. I was going to “Ask the Master”, but decided that maybe this was more suited for this forum. So:
I remember a reference on some TV show about a high ranking mob boss murdering an innocent driver for accidently running over his kid.
What is the truth of my faded memory, and the details?
Peace,

I believe that was John Gotti who chainsawed some poor schlub for just that reason. :eek:

The 'Dapper Don' Was Last Celebrity Mobster

Definitely Gotti.

I’ve heard Gotti’s daughter talk about it on TV, and while not admitting that her father personally whacked the guy, she talked quite bitterly about the driver holding a cheerful barbeque within a short time of her brother’s death, with a definite air of "he had it comin’ "

ETA: Dang, you’re fast Gfactor

I saw her too. She’s a real piece of work (bitch).
