John Gotti's brother complains of throat trouble while in federal prison



Ewwww! John Gotti’s kid brother has “throat boogers.”
That’s the assessment of doctors at a federal prison in Kentucky where Gambino soldier Vincent Gotti is serving time for ordering a hit on a Howard Beach bagel store owner.
His wife, Carmela, dashed off a frantic letter to Federal Judge Jack Weinstein complaining that he’s not receiving proper medical treatment for a “throat mass.”
“He did get a scope down his throat and was told it is throat boogers,” she wrote in the letter filed in Brooklyn Federal Court and made public Wednesday.
She asked the judge for some guidance. “What is a throat booger? We are not sure what that means,” she wrote.
The judge wrote back and told Carmela there is nothing he can do.
Vincent Gotti’s brother, the late Gambino crime boss John Gotti, died of throat cancer at age 61 in federal prison in 2002.
The letter also mentions that Vincent, 59, would like a better mattress.
Serious gangsters in the crime family viewed Vincent Gotti as an embarrassment because of his drug use, but he became an inducted member anyway after his brother’s death.
