Gotti proclaims his innocence and posts bail
Rap boss Irv Gotti and his brother Christopher Lorenzo have pleaded not guilty and posted $2m (€1.5m) bail to remain free men after being hit with money-laundering, racketeering and weapons charges in New York.
The brothers face up to 20 years in prison if they're found guilty of federal charges alleging they were involved in criminal enterprises led by convicted drug lord Kenneth ‘Supreme’ McGriff.
