eventually, gravano and several other members of the gambino family became disenchanted with gotti's lust for the media and high-profile antics, feeling they brought too much heat. several members of the family informed gravano that gotti's high profile and large gatherings of mob members at the ravenite social club were constant targets for the fbi and that the media attention put a large spotlight on the gambinos. many members of the family, according to gravano, complained to him about gotti's use of gravano in murders despite gravano's position as underboss of the family. members were also concerned about gotti's frequent appearances in court. he was first tried for assaulting a refrigerator repairman over a parking space. through witness intimidation, he was acquitted. gravano had paid a juror in gotti's second trial to vote in favor of an acquittal allowing gotti to beat the rico charges lodged against him. gotti's third trial on state assault charges ended the same way. gotti's ego began to bother gravano as well as several other members of the family. gotti was first known as the "dapper don" in the press for his brioni suits and hand-painted ties as well as his well-combed hair and quick wit with reporters. gotti required gravano and gambino consigliere frank locascio to be at the ravenite social club five days a week and all of his captains to make an appearance once a week. when gravano warned gotti about the negative attention from reporters as well as the constant surveillance from the fbi, gotti instructed gravano not to worry about it, as gotti said that he knew what he was doing.
