Mob Rat Turns Dog Trainer for Disabled Vets

Mob rat Salvatore (Sammy Bull) Gravano, now serving 20 years in prison on a drug conviction, is attempting to get his sentenced reduced by training dogs for disabled vets.   

The former Gambino underboss, now 70, had his attorney Thomas Farinella present papers in Brooklyn Federal Court to demonstrate the good work he has done while in prison.  

"This skill will aid in potential employment opportunities upon his release," lawyer Thomas Farinella stated in an effort to reduce his client’s jail time by as much as 34 months.

Gravano has completed a number of prison programs while attending weekly religious services and GED classes.  He could be out of prison by next June.

Gravano is eligible for the break under an amendment to federal sentencing guidelines approved last year by the U.S. Sentencing Commission, according to the New York Daily News.
