Junior Gotti Writes of Regrets

The son of late Mob boss John Gotti says he regrets "involvement in this life" and doesn't want his children to follow his path.

John "Junior" Gotti, set to go to trial next week on charges he tried to kill the founder of the Guardian Angels crime-fighting group, never defines "this life" in an interview published Monday in the New York Post. "My father was such a dynamic figure that you felt the need to be around him," Gotti wrote from the Metropolitan Correctional Center. "Whatever the sacrifice, he would never betray what he believed to be right -- for better or for worse."
