Actor Steven Seagal believed his career would be ruined and he and his family put in danger if he cooperated with federal prosecutors in a probe of a suspected mob attempt to shake him down for hundreds of thousands of dollars, Newsday has learned.

"I think to testify in a case like this could put me and my family in grave danger," Seagal told a federal grand jury last year. "I still think that. And it could destroy my livelihood and I have six children to feed."

But despite his fears, Seagal, 50, is flying back from Thailand, where he is starring in the movie "Belly of the Beast." He is expected to testify tomorrow in the trial of reputed Gambino boss Peter Gotti and six other men charged with racketeering.

Seagal, who was granted immunity to testify before the grand jury, is expected to tell jurors in the Gotti trial how he felt threatened and intimidated by Gambino crime family captain Anthony Ciccone and soldier Primo Cassarino in a financial dispute with a former business partner. "

Actor Steven Seagal, tanned but uncomfortable, reacted in anger when he was questioned in a mob racketeering trial about whether he ever asked someone to setup a man in compromising sexual situation.

“This is insane, insane,” Seagal blurted out combatively when he questioned about the subject on cross examination in the trial of reputed mob boss Peter Gotti and six other men.

“I am not on trial here!,” Seagal continued, as Judge Frederic Block interceded to sustain an objection by the prosecution to the question.

“This is crazy,” Seagal said.

Seagal, decked out in a brown silk Asian jacket, faded blue jeans and tan work shoes was the star attraction this morning in the Gotti case, packing the courtroom with news media, court personnel and the curious as he testified as a government witness.

Prosecutors contend that Seagal was the victim of an extortion attempt by his former business partner Julius Nasso, reputed Gambino captain Anthony “Sonny” Ciccone and reputed soldier PRimo Cassarino.

Under questioning by assistant U.S. Attorney Andrew Genser, Seagal, 50, recounted his movie career and how his business relationship with Nasso deteriorated in the late 1990s. Seagal said that Nasso seemed to become erratic and depressed, prone to psychotic rages, when his marriage collapsed.

But when he tried to extricate him from the business relationship with Nasso, Seagal said Ciccone and Cassarino appeared and tried to pressure him to continue dealing with his old business partner. A key incident was a meeting at Gage & Tollner Restaurant in which Seagal said Ciccone tried to pressure him again.

Seagal admitted that he was being compelled to testify under a grant of immuntity and that he was very uncomfortable being on the witness stand.

Ciccone’s attorney George Santangelo got under Seagal’s collar when he began quesitoning him about conversations the actor had with a man named Herb Saunders, who allegedly had some ties to the CIA. Seagal responded with a terse “no” when Santangelo asked if the actor he ever asked Saunders to kill anyone.

But Seagal got more agitated when Santangelo asked if Seagal asked Saunders to set up someone in a compromising homosexual situation.

Block sustained the goverment’s objection.

“I see you are becoming more relaxed,” Block said to Seagal after the outburst, amid laughter in the courtroom.

Mafia Trial

Thanks for this important information Suzie. I didn't think Steven would ask for protection from the authorities. As I said a while back, Steven naturally fears for his family's safety, so he has the courage to meet the mafia and talk personally. That Defense Attorney sounds like a real scum bag, Steven would love to get him I bet. I am looking forward to Half Past Dead released in Australia on February 20, not too far away. There was a great article about Steven Seagal and Half Past Dead in one of our Australian Martial Arts Magazines this month, I got my copy today. The article says whether you detest or adore Steven Seagal, he shows with upcoming movies such as The Rescue and The Yakuza that he is still the best.

Nash.

I love Steven. I believe his work in Asia on behalf of underpriviledged kids and the inhumane treatment of animals without a lot of fanfare shows the true nature of his spirit.
There is no way he would involve himself with this Gotti mob. Theyre killers amongst other things.
We have to believe the truth will come out
Yes Nash I seen Half Past Dead advertised on the TV. Cant wait.
Luv & Peace
Mandy:)

Glimmer,

I was in the grocery store looking for polenta. Couldn't find it but there on the shelve in the "Ethnic" foods was Branston pickle in the British section. (Not bad for Houston) I thought of you and couldn't stop laughing. People were sure looking at me strange. I'll have to try it and let you know what I think.

Damn, BB Lady - that stuff is mighty fine! In the 'Ethnic' section though? Hahaha! That's like me saying that I found burgers in the 'Ethnic' section of Sainsburys. Try that Branston Pickle on a sandwich with wholemeal bread, extra strong cheddar cheese and crisp lettuce. Delicious!

Glimmer (uses only the freshest ingredients...)
