DAPPER Don Jon Gotti's daughter, Victoria faces trouble after an army of crooked tow truck drivers nabbed cars from Big Apple streets and sold them to a junkyard that pays rent to her.

NEW DNA FIND TORPEDOS CASEY ANTHONY'S DEFENCE

OH DEAR.Things seemed to be getting worse by the day for accused child killer Casey Anthony. New court documents reveal that a former high school pal of the party girl par excellence served as a secret informant for cops. He said she did not admit killing or having any role in the disappearance of her daughter Caylee, 2, in the summer of 2008.
According to the WESH in Orlando, the new evidence is a staggering setback for sexually adventurous Casey. DNA evidence came back negative for any evidence of a male being involved. The tests were requested on a laundry bag and shorts found with the little girl's remains. Her defence said someone else put the child's remains there.

COPS GET TO TOOTH OF BIZARRE MASSACHUSETTS THEFT

Robert Ester, president of Mensa's Massachusetts chapter, sure liked the looks of those teeth. And why not, when you don't have teeth they all look pretty good--particularly if they're gold and shiny. 
Ester, 46, is accused of stealing another man's grill. The tooth came out when Ester and an accomplice confronted a 24-year-old outside a Springfield liquor store (go figure) and demanded everything he had.
Cops say Ester then pistol whipped the young man and the dynamic duo stole his watch, chain--and gold teeth. But while our Robert may have been brilliant in debates, a poor crook was he. The victim told cops to look for a black man in a puffy blue coat with missing teeth.
