Irv "Gotti" Lorenzo's lawyers are seeking a separate trial from his co-defendants who are facing the death penalty for murder.
In court documents, the Gotti legal team cleaned up the moguls' past by dropping the "Gotti" moniker used by Irv and his brother Christopher. Meanwhile, The Inc., previously known as Murder Inc. is referred to as MI Records.
"These young men are not charged with any acts of violence," stated Chris' lawyer, Gerald Shargel. "I don't think repeating that name [Murder Inc.] is terribly helpful."
The Lorenzos are charged with laundering profits from drug lord Kenneth "Supreme" McGriff's drug trade into their record label. Under the same indictment, McGriff, Nicole Brown and boyfriend Dennis "Divine" Crosby, are charged with the drug-related murder of aspiring Queens rapper Eric "E Money Baggs" Smith and might face the death penalty.
Word is the Lorenzos doubt they can get a fair trial if they have to sit through the crime scene photographs, autopsy reports and drugs and guns testimonies of McGriff's case.
The court papers state, "The Lorenzo defendants seek a speedy trial at which they will be able to clear their names and their business reputations."
