John Gotti Dumps His Son's Killer in a Vat of Acid

nypost.com — The man who accidentally ran over John Gotti's young son was allegedly dumped in a vat of acid by a twisted Gambino hit man. Charles Carneglia, 62, who is awaiting trial for five Mafia murders, once boasted of his sick specialty in a tutorial for a turncoat would-be mobster, explaining "that acid was the best method to use to avoid detection."

  • Shigglyboo, on 01/08/2009, -1/+149that's pretty ***** to go and kill the guy who ran over your kid who "darted into the street on a borrowed dirt bike". Sounds like the kid was at fault. It sucks but it's not like it was a drunk driver running over a kid walking home from school.
  • JoeB4ever, on 01/09/2009, -5/+82Congrats on having an extremely misleading title.

    Buried
  • timmymmit, on 01/08/2009, -0/+59I guess "sleeping with the fishes" just doesn't cut it anymore.
  • inactive, on 01/08/2009, -3/+55and you thought you were having a bad day.
  • krahzee, on 01/09/2009, -0/+43Problem was that even though everyone knew who did it or was behind it, Gotti had an alibi (he had reciepts for a trip down south with his wife), no body/ physical evidence of a crime was found, and without any credible witnesses to say it was them they couldn't charge him for it. Without any proof that this man was dead or that the Gambinos had done it, there really wasn't anything the feds could do. They didn't know where he was killed or disposed of so there was no crime scene or body, nor a witness willing to speak about it.
  • DankNugzPlz, on 01/09/2009, -1/+44The goggles! They do nothing!
  • hansk, on 01/09/2009, -4/+43good job cops, maybe you should have arrested this guy, oh i dunno, 30 years ago!
  • TommyHigh, on 01/09/2009, -2/+30Anyone else find the sponsored links a little sadistic?

    "I cut out 2 lbs of body fat per week by obeying this 1 old rule."
    and...
    "Killer White Teeth"

    Bad taste I think.
  • kahoona1, on 01/09/2009, -1/+27I have no further comments.
  • kahoona1, on 01/09/2009, -1/+25You want messed up? I suggest you read the book "The Iceman" by Phillip Carlo. If feeding a man alive to rats while video taping it is your thing.
  • GalacticRerun, on 01/09/2009, -1/+24Is it your thing?
  • redrabbit, on 01/09/2009, -3/+25You didn't read the article, did you?
  • snurfle, on 01/09/2009, -0/+18Leave the gun. Take the cannoli."
  • spaceyraygun, on 01/09/2009, -0/+16"GOTTI HIT OF ACID(?)"

    did some deadhead write the title?
  • netdroid9, on 01/09/2009, -4/+20Sure it does, except instead of fishes you're looking at sharks with lazers on their heads that also breath acid.
  • worldinmyeyes, on 01/09/2009, -0/+15Gee with all the increased Federal Government powers afforded under the "Patriot" Act, why don't we hear of a crackdown on organized crime? Well that's because the government/CIA has a long history of working with them, only occasionally making an arrest. Organized crime goes on, just as the criminals in Washington do.
  • Kristijan12, on 01/09/2009, -0/+14I heard that Gotti actually ordered that they should leave the man alone as he was not guilty.
    But acordingly Carneglia wanted to show his respect and honour to Gotti so he killed him.
  • TheWriteGuy, on 01/09/2009, -0/+12Reminds me of an episode of the series Breaking Bad where one of the meth dealers dissolved the body of a thug in a bath tub of acid, but then things went horribly wrong (the acid dissolved through the entire bath tub and through the floor of the second floor of the house).
  • kinseyincanada, on 01/09/2009, -1/+13harvey dent?
  • albinotoucan, on 01/09/2009, -0/+11So now we have to be on top of FARK as well as digg before submitting a story?? Too much time on your hands.

  • sikosmurf, on 01/09/2009, -0/+10Troy McClure? I thought you said he was dead..

    No, what I said was: "He sleeps with the fishes."
  • NYConcepts, on 01/09/2009, -5/+15Don't forget the Cannoli..
  • PatrickFlorida, on 01/09/2009, -0/+8That was a long month of hell for the poor victim, waiting, waiting, waiting. 'What's going to happen to me?' he probably thought. 'I killed someone! -- I may myself be killed!' That alone is too much for anyone's conscience... Then, to be dropped in a vat of acid...
  • thomleidner, on 01/09/2009, -1/+9Where's the Patriot Act when you need it! /s
  • babydick, on 01/09/2009, -0/+8I'm Victor. The cleaner.
  • uberduger, on 01/09/2009, -0/+7Man, I can't wait for the next season. Love that show.
  • Benjigga, on 01/09/2009, -0/+7"But Carneglia's love of acid and his use of it in Favara's case came to light thanks to new information from the cooperating witness"

    Something tells me this isn't going to be the only murder in this situation.
  • vastness, on 01/09/2009, -0/+7Finally! Someone who understands criminal law on Digg. Thank you, Krahzee.
  • petebert, on 01/09/2009, -0/+7pupupupleeeeese,eddy
  • haydesigner, on 01/09/2009, -0/+7You didn't click the right 'reply' link, did you?
  • vastness, on 01/09/2009, -1/+8If I lived near a gangster like THAT I'd be outa the neighborhood so fast that, that... well, it would be real fast b/c w/ people like gangsters one day they're nice the next day they ***** hate your guts and threaten you. Gangsters don't have real friends especially amongst each other.

    If you ***** up your relationship w/ somebody at school, church, work (w/ the exception of the post office; KIDDING!) that person will throw you dirty looks and talk behind your back. It's different w/ gangsters; they take themselves too seriously and they have a very romanticized idea of their life.

  • dshPls, on 01/09/2009, -2/+7Please, I've read much worse on SA's "creepiest wikipedia entries" thread. I'm not going post the link(because I don't want to remember it) but read about the video 3 Russian teenagers made in 2007 as they brutally killed people, just the description will make you throw up, not sleep for 3 days, and buy a handgun.

But who wants to live in a Totalitarian government? Sure our government isn't perfect, and is probably the reason this guy exists, but its the best we've got so far.
  • BinaryFragger, on 01/09/2009, -1/+5Real acid?

    Crap.
