John Gotti Jr


Junior Gotti's psychic secret
John "Junior" Gotti -- who wants $1 million for the story of his life -- plans to leave out the part about the psychic who helped him during his trials for racketeering, attempted murder and various other crimes.

"He's embarrassed," said a female friend of the psychic. "He doesn't want people to know that he believes in fortune-telling and mind-reading, and all that mumbo jumbo."

A woman named Raquel sat in the courtroom and studied the jurors at Gotti's many trials, helping his defense team.

The Post reported on Feb. 25, 2006, how Raquel's note-taking in court caused a jury-tampering scare:

"A woman was asked by a court officer to leave the courtroom after he noticed her writing notes that described one of the jurors as balding and in his 50s. The US Marshals Service said it was looking into the matter," the story stated.

"But the Gotti family identified the woman as Raquel, a friend of Angel Gotti, Junior's sister -- and said she was taking notes because she's a psychic. They said the woman correctly predicted the outcome of the previous trial."

Raquel's friend told Page Six: "If you're going to write a book or make a movie, tell the truth. She called the trials correctly -- three times. But now she's being left out of the story."

Curtis Sliwa, who barely survived a 1992 hit for which Junior was charged and acquitted, told Page Six: "There were many times that Raquel would remain steady and firm in her predictions of what the jury would do, while even John Gotti Jr. was shaking in his boots. Raquel is just another speed bump left behind in the wake of the Gotti steamroller."
