Son Asks to Delay Sentence for Mom's Kidney | Raleigh News

Carmine Agnello, son of Victoria Gotti, is seeking to delay his 15-month prison sentence until September 18th to accommodate a kidney donation scheduled for his mother on August 3rd — a move prosecutors oppose, arguing his prior donation plan fell through and only a short delay is acceptable. Agnello pleaded guilty to fraud for misusing $1.1 million in pandemic relief loans, while his mother pleaded for leniency, calling his donation life-saving and warning of health risks if surgery occurs while incarcerated. Prosecutors counter that prison can handle medical needs and the donation doesn’t qualify as an extraordinary circumstance — leaving the court to weigh justice against a mother’s desperate plea.
