Victoria Gotti has agreed to pay $2.6 million to buy out forfeiture claims by the government against 14 Queens properties that had been owned by her mobster ex-husband Carmine Agnello - a deal that could help her clear up the troubled finances of her Old Westbury mansion.
The deal on the Queens properties, filed in federal court in Brooklyn, came after years of legal wrangling that followed Agnello's racketeering conviction, and his divorce from the celebrity daughter of the late Gambino family boss John Gotti.
