John Gleeson - The Prosecutor Responsible for Convicting “The Teflon Don” John Gotti

[@RM-pg4js]

Great Podcast ! Glad I subscribed..good job guys !

[@TheMobMuseum]

Welcome aboard!

[@learningcurve3212]

I absolutely hate both political parties. John Gleeson brings his politics into the court room, which is a disgrace. John Gleeson is a political hack and it's a serious problem in the DOJ. Your politics should never go into a court room, Mr. Gleeson...

[@FreddyRuger-b6s]

Exactly right

[@joeyfrakes8523]

That entire interview and all you took from it was his political stance? Terrific interview guys!!! Great insight into the Trial and the nuances of Taking down the Mob!!!😎😁👊

[@peterlindner8819]

Gleeson is a scumbag

[@davidpurcell8189]

John gleeson is a wannabe Thomas Dewey and would have done anything to bring down john gotti and it shows how bad he is when he's now buddies with the biggest rat of all time and a serial killer sammy gravano.

[@peterlindner8819]

@@davidpurcell8189 he's friends with Sammy? He showed how bad he is when he said he didn't need Sammy and gave Sammy a deal anyway

[@GeeGee19]

We live in incredible times to actually hear these gangsters and also hear the prosecutors talk about these things on KZbin is fascinating. The truth is as much as i love KZbin i believe life was better in the payphone days.

[@ponyboycurtis3795]

No two ways about it..I was born in 1979 and am an 80s kid and I loved the old pay phone and going to the cinema to watch a film and playing out in the streets with your mates days.

[@mikevarga6742]

How and why this guy let Sammy off shows they don’t care about the public. They put a guy with 19 murders as our neighbor

[@KHay-vy8ne]

You’re totally correct. Except it’s 20 or more people Sammy clipped. He says he offed his grandmother too. Lied in testimony, the body count is probably well over 20. That’s the type they like to make deals with, lying scumbags.

[@peterlindner8819]

Especially since he said he didn't need Sammy he had enough to get Gotti. This guy is a punk

[@dannick9442]

Dont forget they had lots of other trials where they used sammy the bull in. His testimony helped them get other bosses off of the streets too. As well as several other capos. And plus, probably they dint have a clear cut case on sammy the bull had he not admitted to everything. Dont forget he couldve just said that gotti was talking nonsense about him on the tapes. Which the feds believed gotti was talking rubbish abt sammy the bull on those tapes anyway. Plus using sammy the bull to flip had a knock on effect on other high ranking mafia membersthen flipping, and sammy thr bull neverkilled anyone else once hewas released. And they didnt have evidence that he had even veen involved in 19 murders until he told them that he had been.. Its a very contraversial deal and in an ideal world they coild have locked him up for life as well as having him work for them for 5 yearsof trials against other high ranking mafia members, but we all know that theres no way he wouldve helped them if they hadnt given him the deal they gave him. And essentially that deal is very easily believed to be the reason for why the mafia subsequently lost its power on new york, because of it encouraging a culture of others to startfollowing in Sammy the bulls footsteps etc..

He's a pos no better than the mafia

[@fransesco97]

And he didn't even need Sammy, the FBI had everything on tape. They could've put away both Gotti and Sammy.

[@Guda88]

Sammy testified in alot of other cases and like they said it opened the doors for other people to testify.

the gotti tapes were like a movie . imagine that.

Gleason slayed John Gotti Sr. It helped by having a sequestered jury. It didn’t hurt Sammy turned Rat and gave solid evidence to make sure Senior wasn’t going to weasel out of that case.

[@andrewmccomisky7236]

He did good work putting Gotti in prison.

[@stevehickman6070]

How were the 3 murders chosen to charge Sammy ?

[@eurobubble7068]

cause they were on the tapes

[@suzeauster2223]

Greetings and Thank You ✨ for Sharing this Gem 💎 Years ago my friend was assigned to take aerial camera shots of Gotti, just prior of July 4th 🎉 because every year he would host a " town" party and it compromised traffic/ road rules and regs! Every year Gotti, would change locations!! So my friend called me , freaking out because they assigned her to fly in a helicopter 🚁to get aerial camera shots..and She doesn't fly 😂 She was Scared !!! I, said let them know !!! She said " I'm a Cop, I can't say that " 😂 Fast forward, She meets the helicopter 🚁 pilot, who felt her Vibs, and he reassured her that after a few minutes in flight, if She was still in freak mode, he promised to take her back 👍 That really sealed it for her 😊 okay, the day arrives and She's told that the assigned pilot is sick, and an alternate is assigned to take her in the helicopter 🚁 and get camera shots in Howard Beach and the surrounding areas !!! LOL 😂 She was literally a mess, the new pilot saw her fears, and he too reassured her ❤ After a few minutes in flight her fears were diffused 😊 They got their camera shots, and the pilot than said ," let's have fun, and cruise" where would You like to go /See, ....She said, My Mom's House 🏡 in Bklyn !!!!! Off they went 😊

[@andrewwilson6990]

Love Gleason but don’t agree with the Sammy deal. Not saying his argument isn’t valid, because it’s a fair argument, I just don’t agree that it was the best call. Sammy was a class a miscreant that didn’t deserve the deal he got.

Few Instances in this Video they Make Historical Mistakes for Example at one point they said Carmine Sessa was the Underboss of the Colombo family,(Sessa was in the Administration at that time but not the UB), Larry Mazza who was Actively Involved in the Colombo war Mentions Sessa taking over as Consigliere Postion/Spot once Jimmy Angelina "Disappeared" & Bringing up a Conversation/Morbidily Joking with Grim Reaper, How Sessa was told to go Poll the Capo's by Vic Orena to take over the Family & How he was Likely to Disappear like Jimmy Next.

[@TasteTestTitan]

Here’s a few words of advice. You really need your research more before you have guests on or do a story. This isn’t the first time you’ve dropped the ball and eventually your channel with tank because of repeated mistakes. It’s like saying 2+2=8. Let the guest TALK without interjecting as much as you do!

[@IsaacM97]

I read this comment before I watched the video, thinking they would do a lot of interjecting but I’ve finished the video and they hardly interjected 😂 the conversation flowed well and they were very engaged and patient when listening to him

[@TasteTestTitan]

@ then we weren’t watching the same interview. To me, a good interviewer sits back and listens carefully then replies and they do their research on the subject beforehand.

[@shawnbuckendahl1968]

Love to see and hear about sentencing reforms. And I am typically a hard core tough on crime but I also understand the unintended consequences of long, undeserved sentences.

[@jeffbaker7251]

Oddly enough, He is related to Gotti!!! He found out and went to his bosses to find out if he could continue as a team member with the Trial!

[@peterlindner8819]

Gleeson is a punk. He literally said he didn't need Sammy. So he makes a deal with Sammy and sets a killer like Sammy free

Gotti's power and wealth...was exaggerated a lot...compared to real money maker drug cartels or Sicilian Mafia in Italy, Gotti was nothing compared to them. 😮😮😮

[@justinkohl3818]

Annually making around 500 million a year with all of their rackets and construction in the 80s and early 90s isn't nothing.

[@FreddyRuger-b6s]

Al D'Arco flipped before Sammy as a one time Acting Boss but i guess he gets no credit. Cleveland's UB and Acting Boss Angelo Lonardo either? What about Philly Underboss Phil Leonetti? Nope its all Sammy Bull. Ask yourself why? Answer-----Gotti.

[@justinhorn2864]

Yep they had to get gotti to keep the American people safe? No to flex!

Gleeson compromised. He gave Sammy a deal in exchange for grilled cheese off of a radiator.

I think Gleason is a fine man ! Not positive but I think I see him sitting next to that punk Michael Dowd in the footage of the first Hearing Sessions . He said that he came from a big Firm , I wondered if he was Dowd's Defense Attorney If I'm right about wether it's him there beside Dowd.

So instead you vote for a man who has been convicted on 34 felony counts and was found liable for a SA against a woman. Nice choice. Your moral compass 🧭 is on point 👌🏽. You’re insane.
