Salvatore "Sammy the Bull" Gravano (born March 12, 1945) is a former underboss of the Gambino crime family.
He is known as the man who helped bring down John Gotti, the family's boss, by agreeing to testify against him and other mobsters in a deal in which he confessed to involvement in 19 murders.Originally a mobster for the Colombo crime family, and later for the Brooklyn faction of the Gambinos, Gravano was part of the group that murdered Gambino boss Paul Castellano in 1985.
Gravano played a key role in planning and executing Castellano's murder, along with John Gotti, Angelo Ruggiero, Frank DeCicco, and Joseph Armone.
Five years after Castellano's death, Gotti elevated Gravano to underboss, a position Gravano held at the time he became a government witness.
At the time, Gravano was the highest-ranking member of the Five Families to break his blood oath and cooperate with the government, as well as the second confessed underboss of an American crime family to turn informer.
His testimony drew a wave of Cosa Nostra members to also become government witnesses.
Including time served, he was initially in prison for five years because of his state cooperation.
However, in 2002, he was convicted of operating a large drug ring which led to his serving a further 15 years of a 17-year sentence.
He was released early in September 2017.
