Add The New York Post on Google John Gotti’s grandson tied the knot before turning himself in to do a stint in federal prison – wedding a woman who had accused him of choking her, according to a report.
Carmine Agnello, 40, surrendered on Aug. 10 to serve a 15-month sentence for a $1 million COVID relief scam, two days after marrying Ariana Puran, his lawyer told Newsday.
The grandson of the notorious Gambino crime boss was due to start doing time on June 2, but got a two-month break after telling the judge he wanted to donate a kidney to his ailing mom, mob princess Victoria Gotti.
Agnello was sentenced after pleading guilty to defrauding the United States Small Business Administration and several financial institutions administering the COVID Economic Injury Disaster Loan Program of $943,300. Dennis A. Clark for NY Post Surgery for the donation, which federal prosecutors had argued could be done inside a federal lockup, was never performed, according to reports.
Agnello was charged with assault on June 4 for allegedly choking and slapping Puran in his East Norwich home in a jealous rage over a reputed affair, according to prosecutors.
His now-wife later told reporters it was just “a regular couple’s argument,” but Victoria Gotti lashed out after the arrest and called her now-daughter-in-law “a rat” for calling cops.
