Two members of the Gotti mob family are facing accusations of assaulting a brother-in-law. The incident occurred just a day after the brother-in-law reportedly burglarized the family’s home in Queens. This information comes from law enforcement sources and the police.

John and Frankie Gotti, grandsons of the late “Teflon Don” John Gotti, were hit with third-degree attempted assault and harassment charges by prosecutors for allegedly slugging accused robber Gino Gabrielli, who is the brother of John’s wife, Eleanor Gabrielli, sources said.  

Gino “got what was coming to him,” a lawyer for Frankie told The Post Tuesday night.

“You know, this fella, Gino Gabrielli, had some kind of issue, and the brothers went to talk to him, and I don’t know, I guess he got a little smart,” attorney Gerard Marrone explained.

“He should have kept his hands up.”

The family drama blew up after Gabrielli allegedly entered a bedroom window at John Gotti’s Jamaica house Sunday afternoon, according to a criminal complaint obtained by The Post.

He allegedly stole $3,000, a pair of his sister’s earrings, a watch, wallet and belt, the criminal complaint states.

The suspected thief was caught on surveillance breaking into the home, it alleges.

Gabrielli was arrested and charged Sunday with second-degree burglary, third-degree grand larceny and third-degree criminal possession of stolen property.

But following his supervised release, John, 31, and Frankie, 27 — who are the sons of Peter Gotti — allegedly went looking for the Gabrielli Monday afternoon, sources said.

When police reached the scene after getting a 911 call, cops saw the siblings punching Gabrielli in the face during a fight, according to the NYPD.

The two brothers pleaded not guilty in Queens Criminal Court Tuesday evening.

Marrone, Frankie’s lawyer, didn’t seem concerned by the charges and claimed it was just a quarrel between in-laws.

“It’s just a simple assault, it’s only a B misdemeanor, which is the lowest level misdemeanor you could be charged with,” Marrone said.

“I mean, you know, they shouldn’t have never even really been arrested. It was an argument between, basically, like in-laws.” 

He believes the case will be tossed because Gabrielli would need to sign a supporting deposition within 60 days, which Marrone doesn’t think he’ll do.

“He needed money for boxing lessons, apparently,” Marrone claimed in reference to the alleged theft. “Gino got what was coming to him.”

John and Frank’s famous granddad led the Gambino crime family for decades and was finally convicted of murder and racketeering in 1992 after endlessly frustrating the feds.

The high-profile mob patriarch died in jail at 61 in 2002.

The younger John Gotti has faced past criminal trouble tied to drug dealing.
