Whether jurors believe that Joseph D'Angelo was ever in the club could be important to the prosecution's case against John A. Gotti, who is accused of racketeering conspiracy, including conspiring to kidnap Curtis Sliwa, a radio host and the founder of the Guardian Angels. Testifying in Federal District Court in Manhattan earlier this week, Mr. D'Angelo said Mr. Gotti had convened a meeting at the Ozone Park club, where he ordered Mr. D'Angelo and two other men to rough up Mr. Sliwa, to punish him for insulting the Gotti family on his show.
