The reputed acting boss of the Colombo crime family, Thomas "Tommy Shots" Gioeli, who is imprisoned at the Metropolitan Detention Center in NYCA was told by a federal judge to "stop bothering" him with incessant complaining. Gioeli, is awaiting a racketeering trial involving multiple murders.
After patiently listening to Gioeli go on about his neck, back and dental problems, Magistrate Ramon Reyes was in no mood to entertain the gangster's allegation that guards at the Metropolitan Detention Center "robbed" his portable radio and wrist watch.
"Stop bothering me!" Reyes snapped.
"And stop bothering Judge Cogan. We have more important things to worry about."
Gioeli, 57. "Than my teeth or my heart?" he asked.
"I'm talking about the radio and the watch," Reyes said, advising him to file grievances at the Metropolitan Detention Center. Over the past two years, Gioeli's lawyers have filed numerous legal motions complaining about the medical treatment and prison food at the Brooklyn jail.
Gioeli is charged with six gangland murders, including the fatal shooting of off-duty NYPD cop Ralph Dols.
"I have no teeth," Gioeli said Tuesday. "I can't chew my food. I'm choking. My back is out. My knee needs replacing. It's an ongoing thing."
