Johnny Gebert, July 12, 1996: was shot to death by John Burke, a Gambino associate, for selling drugs in two Queens bars that were in Burke's turf without getting permission, prosecutors said.
"Johnny Gebert was a rabid dog," Alite said, explaining that Junior gave him the go-ahead to whack Gebert years before Burke actually did. "After I shot George Grosso, he [Junior] gave me the OK to shoot Johnny Gebert, saying, 'You gotta kill him.'"
