Joseph Gotti

## Early Life

Joseph Linguini Gotti is a prominent figure in the criminal underworld, known for his business acumen and leadership skills. Born in Italy in 1995, he was raised in a family that had a long history in organized crime. His father, Nico Gotti, was the head of the Gotti Family, one of the most notorious criminal organizations in Italy.

## Gotti Family

From an early age, Joseph was groomed to take over the family business. He was taught the ins and outs of the criminal underworld, and he quickly became an essential part of the Gotti Family's operations. He was often tasked with leading negotiations and securing business deals, using his charm and intelligence to get the job done.

However, the Gotti Family's fortunes took a turn for the worse when Joseph's brother, Michael Gotti, caused the great Cocaine Flood of 2008. The authorities cracked down on the family, and they were forced to flee Italy to avoid prosecution.

## Mama Gottis & Other Ventures

The Gottis found themselves in Los Santos, San Andreas, where they quickly established themselves as a force to be reckoned with. Joseph, alongside his father, co-founded Mama Gottis, a popular Italian restaurant that served as a front for the family's criminal activities. Michael Wagner, became an investor propelling the business into new heights, while also providing guidance as a mentor to Joe.

Joe's entrepreneurial spirit has been a driving force behind his many business endeavors, including his latest venture with his brothers Mike and Leo. In late 2022, they started Gotti Towing & Repossessions, a company that specializes in providing efficient and reliable towing and repossession services.

Joe also founded Gotti Holdings Co. The company is a formidable force in the field of funding and acquisitions, with a reputation for successful ventures and strategic investments.

## Winston Napolini

Winston Napolini, a prominent businessman from New York City and the owner of the Diamond Casino, formed a close partnership with Joe through Winstons former mentee, Michael Wagner. Despite his success in the business world, little is known about Winston's background or his intentions in Los Santos.

The sudden appearance of Winston has raised eyebrows among Joe's friends and associates, who are beginning to question his motives. They are concerned that Joe may be getting involved with someone who has ulterior motives or who may lead him down a dangerous path.

While the extent of Winston's involvement with Joe is still unclear, it is apparent that their alliance has continued to grow.
