Lawyer says 'Junior' Gotti has reformed

John A. "Junior" Gotti went on trial on kidnapping, extortion and fraud charges Monday, with a prosecutor saying he ordered the 1992 kidnapping of a radio host to silence him for his verbal attacks on the Gotti family.

"The Gambino crime family is not a family like yours or mine," Hou told the jury in U.S. District Court in Manhattan.
