Gambino family consigliere Frank (Frankie Loc) LoCascio was convicted of murder and racketeering charges along with Gotti in 1992. Like Gotti, Locascio will spend the rest of his life in a federal prison.

LoCascio was present during many tape recorded conversations with Gotti that were played at trial - discussions that had taken place in a bugged apartment above the crime family's Little Italy base of operations, the Ravenite Social Club. LoCascio didn't say much, but he was a good listener as Gotti uttered the most damning evidence against himself, admissions that he ordered the killings of three mobsters who had fallen out of favor.

"When DeeBee got whacked, they told me a story," said Gotti in a reference to the murder of Robert DiBernardo. "I was in jail when I whacked him. I knew why it was being done. I done it anyway. I allowed it to be done."

Louie Milito was killed, said Gotti, because Gravano reported that Milito had badmouthed Gotti: "I took Sammy's word that he talked behind my back. I took Sammy's word."

About Louie DiBono, Gotti explained: "He didn't rob nothing. Know why he's dying? He's gonna die because he refused to come in when I called."
