Welcome to the Coatesville Dems Blog

Public Corruption in Chester County, PA

I believe an unlikely mix of alleged drug trafficking related politicos and alleged white nationalist related politicos united to elect the infamous “Bloc of Four” in the abysmal voter turnout election of 2005. During their four year term the drug business was good again and white nationalists used Coatesville as an example on white supremacist websites like “Stormfront”. Strong community organization and support from law enforcement, in particular Chester County District Attorney Joseph W. Carroll has begun to turn our community around. The Chester County drug trafficking that I believe centers on Coatesville continues and I believe we still have public officials in place that profit from the drug sales. But the people here are amazing and continue to work against the odds to make Coatesville a good place to live.

Paparazzi followed New York Mob Boss “Dapper Don” John Gotti. Trump & Gotti had the media in their palm. Both attracted “stick it to the man” press. Gotti used his own men to kill. Trump cajoled people who follow his orders with religious zeal to kill.

When John Gotti went down the entire Italian Mafia in the United States eventually went down. 

“John Gotti and his big mouth and his use of the media turned a secret society into a national spectacle. So, I think that If anybody is responsible for the downfall of the mob, it’s not me, it’s not the FBI, it’s not the other prosecutors, it’s John Gotti." Laura A. Ward Federal Prosecutor.



When Donald Trump goes down the entire Republican Party will go down. 





Trump’s New York buildings were built with Gotti Organization concrete with a 20% protection surcharge going to Gotti.


The Trump Organization used Michael Cohen as his consigliere to sue and threaten people and businesses. 

The primary difference between Gotti & Trump is most of Trump's threats (according to Michael Cohen) were carried out in court. 


But Gotti used murder or worse as a threat.  "Hits" of John Gotti were done by men in his Mafia organization. . Many of them by Sammy the bull Gravano. 

Once Trump became president actual murders were carried out by Trump's publicly advertised threats done in Mafia style. Trump’s “hits" are carried out by ordinary people who follow Trump's orders as though God himself told them to murder the enemies of Trump. 


"The trial was a travesty -- they could have convicted the Pope," Michael Strippoli, a 49-year-old retired jewelry salesman from Queens, said angrily outside Federal District Court in Brooklyn, where John Gotti had just been sentenced to spend the rest of life in jail.

"There is something dangerous going on in America," he said. "Look at what they got away with in the Rodney King thing. We Italians are a minority too, and we have to stand up and say this is wrong."

That anger erupted yesterday outside the courthouse in downtown Brooklyn as a chanting crowd of supporters of Mr. Gotti -- the police estimated the group at 800 to 1,000 -- rushed barricades and scuffled with the police. A handful of demonstrators, who arrived in 12 chartered buses, smashed car windows and flipped a gray Pontiac onto its hood on the sidewalk of Cadman Plaza East.

At one point, demonstrators jumped on top of the cars and pounded the roofs, yelling "Free John! Free John!"

Seven protesters were arrested and charged with felony riot counts. Eight police officers were taken to Long Island College Hospital with bruises and other minor injuries. One officer's nose was broken.

Many demonstrators called Mr. Gotti, convicted of racketeering and murder for his role as head of the Gambino crime family, a hero and a victim of a justice system run amok.

For Gotti's Supporters, Disbelief and Anger

June 24, 1992




Trump’s New York trials attracted a tiny number of his followers. 





"On June 23, 1992, Mafia boss John Gotti, who was nicknamed the “Teflon Don” after escaping unscathed from several trials during the 1980s, is sentenced to life in prison after being found guilty on 14 accounts of conspiracy to commit murder and racketeering. Moments after his sentence was read in a federal courthouse in Brooklyn, hundreds of Gotti’s supporters stormed the building and overturned and smashed cars before being forced back by police reinforcements…


Gotti rapidly expanded his criminal empire, and his family grew into the nation’s most powerful Mafia family. Despite wide publicity of his criminal activities, Gotti managed to avoid conviction several times, usually through witness intimidation. In 1990, however, he was indicted for conspiracy to commit murder in the death of Paul Castellano, and Gravano agreed to testify against him in a federal district court in exchange for a reduced prison sentence.


On April 2, 1992, John Gotti was found guilty on all counts and on June 23 was sentenced to multiple life terms without the possibility of parole."
