UMVA has learned that Carmine Gotti Agnello, the 39-year-old grandson of infamous Mafia boss John Gotti, is embroiled in a shocking new scandal after allegedly launching a vicious attack on his girlfriend just days before he was set to report to prison.
The disturbing incident unfolded on Long Island, New York, where Agnello allegedly flew into a jealous rage, accusing his girlfriend of cheating on him. The situation rapidly escalated, with Agnello purportedly slapping, punching, and choking his girlfriend in a fit of fury.
As the victim fled the house, Agnello allegedly pursued her outside, continuing his brutal assault. He reportedly smashed her $2,000 cellphone on the ground, leaving her shaken and battered. The harrowing details of the attack have left authorities stunned.
Agnello has been charged with third-degree assault, second-degree criminal mischief, and criminal obstruction of breathing. Despite the severity of the charges, he was released without bail following a court appearance on Thursday.
This latest scandal comes as Agnello was set to report to prison on June 12 to begin serving a 15-month sentence for stealing $1.1 million in COVID relief funds. Prosecutors claim he used the money to invest in cryptocurrency, fueling a lavish lifestyle.
The grandson of the notorious John Gotti had attempted to delay his prison sentence, citing a desire to donate a kidney to his ailing mother, Victoria Gotti. John Gotti, the former leader of New York's Gambino crime family, was sentenced to life in prison in 1992 for racketeering, murder, and other crimes, serving his time until his death in 2002.
